It is a medicine developed by ethnic minorities in order to survive and reproduce and in the process of fighting diseases. Culture, based on its own language, life experience and cultural traditions, has its own understanding and theoretical system of disease naming, etiology and pathogenesis, treatment principles and treatment methods, which is a major feature of my country’s medical care. Among them, ethnic medicine has unique advantages and good clinical efficacy in the prevention and treatment of cholelithiasis. Therefore, this paper focuses on summarizing the characteristic theories and diagnosis and treatment experience of Tibetan medicine, Mongolian medicine, Miao medicine, Yao medicine, and Beijing medicine in ethnic medicine by sorting out and summarizing the relevant materials in this regard, so as to provide new ideas for improving the treatment of cholelithiasis and enriching clinical drug selection.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Liver fat accumulation is associated with increased cholesterol synthesis and hypersecretion of biliary cholesterol,which may be related to the development of cholelithiasis.AIM To investigate whether liver fat accumulation measured by high-speed T2-corrected multi-echo magnetic resonance spectroscopy(MRS)is a risk factor for cholelithiasis.METHODS Forty patients with cholelithiasis and thirty-one healthy controls were retrospectively enrolled.The participants underwent high-speed T2-corrected multi-echo single-voxel MRS of the liver at a 3T MR scanner.The proton density fat fraction(PDFF)and R2 value were calculated.Serum parameters and waist circumference(WC)were recorded.Spearman’s correlation analysis was used to analyze the relationship between PDFF,R2,and WC values.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was carried out to determine the significant predictors of the risk of cholelithiasis.Receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)analysis was used to evaluate the discriminative performance of significant predictors.RESULTS Patients with cholelithiasis had higher PDFF,R2,and WC values compared with healthy controls(5.8%±4.2%vs 3.3%±2.4%,P=0.001;50.4±24.8/s vs 38.3±8.8/s,P=0.034;85.3±9.0 cm vs 81.0±6.9 cm,P=0.030;respectively).Liver iron concentration extrapolated from R2 values was significantly higher in the cholelithiasis group(2.21±2.17 mg/g dry tissue vs 1.22±0.49 mg/g dry tissue,P=0.034)than in the healthy group.PDFF was positively correlated with WC(r=0.502,P<0.001)and R2(r=0.425,P<0.001).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that only PDFF was an independent risk factor for cholelithiasis(odds ratio=1.79,95%CI:1.22-2.62,P=0.003).ROC analysis showed that the area under the curve of PDFF was 0.723 for discriminating cholelithiasis from healthy controls,with a sensitivity of 55.0%and specificity of 83.9%when the cut-off value of PDFF was 4.4%.CONCLUSION PDFF derived from high speed T2-corrected multi-echo MRS can predict the risk of cholelithiasis.
