The differences in serum levels of TGF-β1, liver fibrosis indexes and Th1/Th2 cytokines were compared between the two groups, and the Pearson test was adopted to evaluate the correlation between serum TGF-β1 content and disease severity in patients with chronic hepatitis b.Results: Serum TGF-β1 level of chronic hepatitis b group was higher than that of normal control group;serum liver fibrosis indexes CⅣ, PC-Ⅲ, HA and LN levels were higher than those of normal control group;serum Th1 cytokines IFN-γ and IL-12 levels were lower than those of normal control group whereas Th2 cytokines IL-4 and IL-13 levels were higher than those of normal control group. Pearson test showed that the serum TGF-β1 level in patients with chronic hepatitis b was positively correlated with the degree of liver fibrosis and Th1/Th2 immune imbalance.Conclusions: Serum TGF-β1 expression is abnormally high in patients with chronic hepatitis b and directly correlated with the degree of liver fibrosis and immune imbalance.展开更多

The patients in the control group were given multipoint injection of triamcinolone acetonide (40 mg/time) in the basal region of oral mucosal regions. On this basis, the patients in the observation group were given additional Danshen injection (4 mL/time), 1 time/week, for 12 times. VAS was used for evaluation. The oral mucosa lesion area and mouth opening were measured. The morning fasting peripheral venous blood before and after treatment in the two groups was collected. The blood rheometer was used to detect the whole blood viscosity [high shear (HS), moderate shear (MS), and low shear (LS)], plasma viscosity (PV), and fibrinogen (FIB). ELISA was used to detect the serum TGF-β1 and IL-6 levels.Results: VAS score in the observation group was significantly reduced (P<0.05), mucosal lesion area was significantly less than that in the control group (P<0.05), and mouth opening was significantly greater than that in the control group (P<0.05). LS, MS, PV, and FIB after treatment in the observation group were significantly reduced when compared with before treatment (P<0.05), while LS, MS, HS, PV, and FIB after treatment in the control group were not significantly changed (P>0.05). TGF-β1 and IL-6 levels after treatment in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusions: Danshen injection in combined with local injection of triamcinolone acetonide in the treatment of OSF can effectively reduce the serum TGF-β1 and IL-6 levels, inhibit the connective tissue fibrosis, and improve the pain, oral mucosal lesion area, and mouth opening, with a satisfactory clinical effect.展开更多
