In recent years, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in China has gradually shown its clinical advantages in the treatment of SPID. Therefore, the present review summarizes the etiology and pathogenesis of SPID, the evidence typology, and the clinical application effects of moxibustion, herbal retention enema, acupoint compresses, external application of traditional Chinese medicine, auricular pressure beans, tuina massage, traditional Chinese medicine gongfu, and other commonly used Chinese medicine nursing techniques, with the aim of providing references and experiences for the subsequent related studies.展开更多

The contents of inflammatory mediators and the expression of apoptosis genes in uterine muscle as well as the contents of immune cells in peripheral blood were determined 21 d after molding and intervention.Results:TLR4, NF-κB, TNF-α, ICAM-1 and IL-8 levels as well as Fas, TNFR-1, GRP78, CHOP and Caspase-3 mRNA expression in uterine muscle tissue and CD3+CD8+T cell in peripheral blood of pelvic inflammation group were higher than those of control group whereas peripheral blood CD3+CD4+T cell, red blood cell C3b receptor rosette rate and erythrocyte immune complex rosette were lower than those of control group;TLR4, NF-κB, TNF-α, ICAM-1 and IL-8 levels as well as Fas, TNFR-1, GRP78, CHOP and Caspase-3 mRNA expression in uterine muscle tissue as well as CD3+CD8+T cell in peripheral blood of smilax bockii warb group were lower than those of pelvic inflammation group whereas peripheral blood CD3+CD4+T cell, red blood cell C3b receptor rosette rate and erythrocyte immune complex rosette were higher than those of pelvic inflammation group. Conclusion:Smilax bockii warb polysaccharide for chronic pelvic inflammatory disease intervention can inhibit the inflammatory mediator secretion, apoptosis and regulate the immune cell function.展开更多

Participants were surveyed regarding demographic and disease specific data and their perspectives on the transition process. Survey response data were compared to contemporaneously recorded information in paediatric service case notes. Data were compared to a similar age cohort who had never received paediatric IBD care and therefore who had not undergone a transition process.RESULTS: There were 81 returned surveys from 46 transition and 35 non-transition patients. No statistically significant differences were found in disease burden, disease outcomes or adult roles and responsibilities between cohorts. Despite a high prevalence of mood disturbance (35%), there was a very low usage (5%) of psychological services in both cohorts. In the transition cohort, knowledge of their transition plan was reported by only 25/46 patients and the majority (54%) felt they were not strongly prepared. A high rate (78%) of discussion about work/study plans was recorded prior to transition, but a near complete absence of discussion regarding sex (8%), and other adult issues was recorded. Both cohorts agreed that their preferred method of future transition practices (of the options offered) was a shared clinic appointment with all key stakeholders.CONCLUSION: Transition did not appear to adversely affect disease or psychosocial outcomes. Current transition care processes could be optimised, with better psychosocial preparation and agreed transition plans.展开更多

Antibiotics are usually used to treat leukorrheal disease in clinic,but they can lead to a variety of side effects if improper use or long-time use. In recent years,traditional Chinese medicine( TCM) has shown its unique advantages in the treatment of leukorrheal disease. This article mainly explored the key points of common syndromes,TCM nursing methods and health guidance of leukorrheal disease in order to further develop the advantages of TCM,improve its efficacy and standardized its nursing behavior.展开更多

During this period, no patients experienced drug-related serious side effects or disease recurrence that could not be treated in time due to failure to reach the medical staffs. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> The disease management methods based on IBD platform allow the patients to be properly managed during this special period.展开更多

According to clinical experience in acupuncture treatment of annexitis, the author has developed an effective acupuncture method called abdominal cluster-needling, with quite good therapeutic results as reported in the following.Clinical DataThere were altogether 66 cases of chronic annexitis in this series, which were divided randomly into the treatment group and control group. The treatment group consisted of 36 cases, ranging in age from 20-40 years, and duration of illness from 0.5-9 years. The control group consisted of 30 cases, ranging in age from 21-38 years, and duration of illness from 1-8 years.展开更多
