Objective To investigate the effects of different doses of Yiyi Ren aqueous prepara-tion on blood lipid regulation and spleen-strengthening and dampness-eliminating effects in hyperlipi-demia rats with syndrome of spleen deficiency and excessive dampness.Methods Sixty SD male rats were randomly divided into blank control group,model group,low-dose,medium-dose,high-dose Yiyi Ren aqueous preparation groups,and positive drug control group,with 10 rats in each group.A hyperlipidemia rat model with syndrome of spleen deficiency and excessive dampness was estab-lished by feeding with a high-fat diet for 21 consecutive days combined with a damp bedding environment.After drug administration,behavioral tests such as grip strength,weighted swimming test,and open field test were conducted;changes in body weight in each group were observed;serum levels of total cholesterol(TC),triglycerides(TG),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),and low-den-sity lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)were detected;levels of vasoactive intestinal peptide(VIP),an-tidiuretic hormone(ADH),and aldosterone(ALD)were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results Compared with the blank control group,the model group showed decreased HDL-C,grip strength,exhaustive swimming time,and total distance,as well as increased TC,TG,LDL-C,ADH,ALD,and VIP(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,TC,TG,and LDL-C levels were decreased in the medium-dose,high-dose Yiyi Ren aqueous preparation groups,and the positive drug control group,while the HDL-C levels were increased in the low-dose,medium-dose,and high-dose Yiyi Ren aqueous preparation groups and the positive drug control group(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,the high-dose Yiyi Ren aqueous preparation group showed in-creased grip strength,exhaustive swimming time and total distance and decreased serum ADH levels(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,the medium and high-dose Yiyi Ren aqueous prepa-ration groups showed decreased serum ALD and VIP levels(P＜0.05).Conclusion Yiyi Ren aqueous preparation has an effect on regulating blood lipid levels in hyperlipidemia rats with syn-drome of spleen deficiency and excessive dampness,and it can alleviate physical fatigue,improve abnormal exploratory behavior,and maintain normal water metabolism and motor function in rats.

Central fatigue refers to the central nervous system disease caused by excessive mental pressure or excessive physical activity, which shows a series of fatigue symptoms. The pathological mechanism of central fatigue remains unclear, and the mitochondrial quality control pathway represented by mitophagy is closely related to the occurrence and development of central fatigue. Traditional Chinese medicine considers liver stagnation and spleen deficiency as the key pathogenesis of central fatigue. This paper suggests that oxidative stress may be an important basis for the occurrence of central fatigue, energy metabolism disorders are specific manifestations of liver′s failure of conveyance and dispersion and spleen′s failure of healthy transportation, and the abnormal accumulation of reactive oxygen can be regarded as pathological products of central fatigue. Therefore, based on oxidative stress and energy metabolism, the pathologic mechanism of liver′s failure of conveyance and dispersion and spleen′s failure of healthy transportation in central fatigue from the perspective of mitophagy has a rich theoretical connotation, and provides a theoretical reference for the clinical treatment of central fatigue.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect for transcatheter closure of intracristal ventricular septal defects (IVSD) using duct occluder.Methods Between Jun.2012 and Sep.2013,implantaion of duct occluder was conducted in 27 IVSD pmients,which was compmed with acentric ventricular septal occluder attempted in 53 IVSD patients.The transthoracic echocardiography,electrocardiography,and clinical examination were observed at 24 hours,and after 1,3,6 and 12 months follows-up.Results Implantation of duct occluders were achieved in 26 (96.23 ％) patients and implantation of acentric ventricular septal occluder in 42 (79.25％) patients.The mean follow-up time was 6.78 months (1-17 months).The procedure time,fluoroscopic time and residual shunt were not statistically different between the 2 groups (all p ＞ 0.05).The size of VSD (t =-3.124,P =0.003) and occluder diameter (t =-4.285,P ＜0.001)were smaller and the procedure success rate was higher in the duct occluder group (x2 =9.099,P =0.011).Left ventricular end diastolic dimension,left atrial diameter,left ventricular end diastolic dimension,right ventricular end diastolic dimension and pulmonary artery diameter were decreased significantly (F =57.62,5.002,4.754,2.782,P =0.000,0.033,0.001,0.030) after surgical procedure compared with those before procedure,except for the right atrial diameter and left ventricular ejection fraction.No new serious aortic regurgitation or increased mitral regurgitation,tricuspid regurgitation was shown after procedure in 2 groups.Complete left bundle branch block occurred in 2 patients respectively,pericardial effusion and thromboembolism of right femoral artery occurred in 1 patient in the acentric ventricular septal occluder group.Conclusions The duct occluder for IVSD closure has presented a good result,without serious complications,which provides a new method for IVSD closure.Further studies are necessary to determine the long-term results in a larger population of patients.
