Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of Linaclotide combined with Simethicone oil and compound polyethylene glycol electrolyte(PEG)for cleansing effect of bowel in patients with constipation.Methods A prospective randomized controlled trial was designed and implemented by single blind method.383 patients with constipation who underwent colonoscopy from April 2023 to August 2024 were enrolled and randomly divided into routine group(128 cases),experimental group A(128 cases)and experimental group B(127 cases).Routine group treated with 3 L PEG,experimental group A treated with 290 μg Linaclotide+2 L PEG and experimental group B treated with 290 μg Linaclotide+30 mL Simethicone+2 L PEG.Bowel preparation effect[Boston bowel preparation scale(BBPS)scores and foaming removal effect],lesion detection rate,first defecation interval,frequency of defecation,the success rate of cecal intubation,the insertion time of colonoscopy,the withdrawal time of colonoscopy,incidence of adverse reactions and willingness to repeat examination of the three groups were compared.Results No statistically significant differences were observed in the BBPS scores among the three groups(P>0.05);The foaming removal effect score in experimental group B was significantly lower than that in routine group and experimental group A,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);The total lesion detection rate and polyps detection rate of experimental group B were significantly higher than those of routine group and experimental group A,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The first defecation interval of the routine group was significantly longer than that of experimental group A and experimental group B,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);The frequency of defecation was compared among the three groups,and the difference was no statistically significant(P>0.05).The success rate of cecal intubation in the three groups was 100.0%,and the insertion time of colonoscopy was similar,the differences were not statistically significant(P>0.05);The withdrawal time of colonoscopy in experimental group B was significantly shorter than that in routine group and experimental group A,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The incidence of abdominal distension and total adverse reactions in the routine group were higher than those in experimental group A and experimental group B,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05);The willingness to repeat examination rate of the routine group was significantly lower than that of experimental group A and experimental group B,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion 290 μg Linaclotide combined with 30 mL Simethicone and 2 L PEG solution regimen has advantages in intestinal preparation for patients with constipation,and can achieve better intestinal cleaning effect than 3 L PEG solution and 290 μg linalopeptide+2 L PEG solution regimen,with higher safety and willingness to repeat examination.It can be recommended for bowel preparation for patients with constipation.

Sijunzi decoction (SJZD) is a Chinese classical formula to treat spleen qi deficiency syndrome (SQDS) and has been widely used for thousands of years. However, the quality control (QC) standards of SJZD are insufficient. Chinmedomics has been designed to discover and verify bioactive compounds of a variety of formula rapidly. In this study, we used Chinmedomics to evaluate the SJZD's efficacy against SQDS to discover the potential quality-markers (q-markers) for QC. A total of 56 compounds in SJZD were characterized in vitro, and 23 compounds were discovered in vivo. A total of 58 biomarkers were related to SQDS, and SJZD can adjust a large proportion of marker metabolites to normal level and then regulate the metabolic profile to the health status. A total of 10 constituents were absorbed as effective ingredients that were associated with overall efficacy. We preliminarily determined malonyl-ginsenoside Rb2 and ginsenoside Ro as the q-markers of ginseng; dehydrotumulosic acid and dihydroxy lanostene-triene-21-acid as the q-markers of poria; glycyrrhizic acid, isoglabrolide, and glycyrrhetnic acid as the q-markers of licorice; and 2-atractylenolide as the q-marker of macrocephala. According to the discovery of the SJZD q-markers, we can establish the quality standard that is related to efficacy.

Objective This study was to evaluate the safety of 640 corneal donors by analysing the serological testing results.Methods We retrospectively analyzed the serological testing results from Changsha Aier Eye Bank and Chengdu Kangqiao Aier Eye Bank from January 2011 to December 2015,hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg),hepatitis C virus (HCV),treponema pallidum (TP) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) were detected by colloidal gold or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results There were 83 out of 640 serum samples showed positive immuno-reaction assayed markers,the positive rate was 12.97％,including HBsAg(n=60,9.38％),HCV(n=3,0.47％),TP(n=11,1.72％) and HIV(n=2,0.31％).Moreover,3 corneal donors were both positive against HBsAg and HCV,2 donors positive against HCV and TP,1 donor positive against HBsAg and HIV,1 donor positive against HBsAg and TP.Conclusions There is a high proportion of positive results of blood-borne diseases in cornea donors,which is a potential threat to corneal receptors and eye bank workers.Therefore,it is very important to detect serological test strictly for corneal donors.
