THE EFFECT OF MOXIBUSTION ON THE CHANGES OF 5-HT AND IMMUNE FUNCTION OF RAT INFECTED WITH EHFV

Authors observated the effect of moxibustion on changes of 5-HT and immunefunction of rat infected with EHFV.The results show that moxibustion could enhance the phago-cytosis of peritoneal macrophage of rat infected with EHFV,increase the roset rate of RBC C3brecptor,decrease the content of 5-HT in plasma.There is a significant dffeerence between EHFVinfected group and moxibustion group.That suggests the moxibustion could enhance the immunefunction of body,regulate the metablic disturbance of 5-HT in plasma,maintain the internal en-vironment of body and enhance the force of body to anti EHFV.Maybe that can play an impor-tant role in the mechanism of moxibustion treating EHF.

血清学阴性与血清学阳性类风湿关节炎患者临床及免疫学特征的差异

类风湿关节炎是一种异质性疾病,可以根据自身抗体(类风湿因子以及抗环瓜氨酸肽抗体)的存在与否将其分为血清学阳性与血清学阴性两类。两种亚型在临床特点及免疫学特征方面都存在差异,提示他们可能是由不同发病机制所驱动。

台湾地区慢性乙型肝炎中医辨证论治规律探讨

目的:探讨台湾地区慢性乙型肝炎患者中医辨证分型的偏向性及和生化指标间的相关性,以及中医辨证论治的客观依据。方法:264例门诊患者,男194例,女70例,按中医辨证分为湿热中阻型,肝郁脾虚型,肝肾阴虚型,瘀血阻络型及脾肾阳虚型5型。分析辨证分型与生活习惯及肝功能AST/ALT间彼此的相关性。结果:①264例患者中,肝肾阴应型90例(34％),湿热中阻型及肝郁脾虚型分别为74例及73例(各约占28％),瘀血阻络及脾肾阳虚型共27例(10％)。②瘀血阻络及脾肾阳虚型患者年龄最大,其次为肝肾阴虚,肝郁脾虚及湿热中阻型。P=0.016。③各种症状归类于各组织系统,以肝郁脾虚型和肝肾阴虚型在肝胆胃肠系统有较高频率的表现,证型间有统计上的意义。P=0.021。④ALT在湿热中阻型中含量最高,在瘀血阻络和脾肾阳虚型最低,且ALT和各证型间具有统计学意义。P=0.038。结论:①台湾地区,慢性乙型肝炎患者,以肝肾阴虚为最多见。②以瘀血阻络型及脾肾阳虚型年龄为最高,说明慢性乙型肝炎随着病毒潜伏时间延长,会加重肝组织的变性及恶化,形成肝硬化及肝癌。③肝郁脾虚及肝肾阴虚型者多有胃肠肝胆系统的临床症状,体现证型的临床变化和现代生理,病理,解剖有着密切关系。④AST/ALT以湿热中阻型为最高,说明慢性化过程中,肝功能未必上升,而见下降。?
