The treatment group obtained a better result in the accumulated points of syndrome and RA, morning rigidity of the joints, grip strength, 20m walking time and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) (P<0.01 or P<0.05). The above indicates that channel blockage due to yin deficiency is an important pathogenesis of RA, and calming the endogenous wind is a method of choice for treating RA.展开更多

Methods: The mouse model of bronchial asthma with Yin deficiency syndrome was established by the treatment with injecting ovalbumin(OVA) two times to sensitize, inhaling OVA 14 times to stimulate, and using thyroxin through lavage during late stimulation. This model was evaluated through body weight, asthmatic behaviors, respiratory function, autonomous activity, lung pathology, and pulmonary fluid clearance. Results: OVA combined with thyroxin was an appropriate method to induce the mouse model with increased food and water intake, autonomous activity, asthmatic behaviors score, and respiratory rate, decreased body weight, tidal volume, and wet/dry ratio of lung, and changed with pathology of lung tissue. The changes of the above mentioned parameters indicated that the model was the bronchial asthma with Yin deficiency syndrome. Conclusion: The OVA combined with thyroxin is a good pattern to establish a mouse model of bronchial asthma with Yin deficiency syndrome successfully, which can highly simulate the clinical symptoms of this disease.展开更多

The higher prevalence of tachycardia occurred in the patients with CDY.The prevalence of the Q - T interval prolongation and abnormalities of ST - T segment in the patients with CDY was also higher than that of CDQ. The difference between two groups suggests that the diagnosis of two syndromes by ECG may be of important value.
文摘Fatty liver is a disease caused by excessive accumulation of fat in the liver due to long-term ort repeated affection of various causative factors'When the pathogenic factor prevails,the qi is sure to be deficient',Therefore,deficiency of the vital-qicontributes greatly to the occurrence of fatty liver.For many years,the author has concentrated ont the treatment of fatty liver with the tonificatioin method,or tonification followed by purgation,or the combination of tonificaytioin with purgation,so as to effectively prevent the liver from being injured by harmful substances ,and to benefit the recovery of fatty liver.The following is a report of his experience in treatment of fatty liver with the combined use of tonification and purgation.
文摘With the popularization of clinical ultrasound technology,small follicular ovulation infertility is gradually being recognized in clinical practice.Low follicle ovulation refers to the phenomenon that the average value of the three diameter lines of the dominant follicle is less than 14mm-18mm under continuous ultrasound monitoring.The dominant follicle ovulates before it develops to maturity,which is a kind of ovulation disorder and one of the leading causes of unexplained infertility[1],accounting for 25%-30%of the total number of patients with infertility[2].At present,Western medicine mostly uses ovulation,stimulating drugs to treat this disease.Still,due to the clinical result of“high ovulation but low pregnancy”,there are certain obstacles in treatment.The purpose of this article is to discuss Zhang Xiaofeng’s understanding of TCM of this disease.The tutor believes that the location of the disease is in the kidney,and the mechanism of the disease is kidney yin deficiency and blood heat.The treatment principle is sequential therapy,nourishing yin and clearing heat,taking into account the protection of the spleen and stomach,and the therapeutic effect is perfect.

文摘OBJECTIVE:To investigate the mechanism of Yin deficiency syndrome(YDS) by analyzing the liver metabolomic characteristics of three different Yin deficiency rat models METHODS:Following the TCM etiology,for clinical features and pathological manifestations of modern medicine,three kinds of animal models of Yin deficiency were induced and replicated.Totally 48 Sprague-Dawley(SD) male rats were randomly divided into blank group,irritation induced model group,Fuzi-Ganjiang induced model group,and thyroxine-reserpine induced model group.After successful development of model,the ultraperformance liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry was carried out to detect metabolites in each group.The metabolites of rat liver were analyzed for the characteristics of their biomarkers.The pathway enrichment analysis and metabolic network construction were performed through various online databases including Metabolite Biology Role,Human Metabolome Database,MetaboAnalyst,and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes.RESULTS:The SD rats in the experimental group showed symptoms like less weight gain,reduced diet and water intake,high body temperature,increased liver and kidney indexes,and abnormal liver and kidney tissue morphology.Moreover,the rats showed high increased levels of serum cyclic adenosine monophosphate,estradiol,alanine transaminase,and aspartate aminotransferase and decreased levels of cyclic guanosinc monophosphate and testosterone.We found four key interrelated metabolic pathways in the liver tissue metabolomics,including the biosynthesis of pantothenic acid and coenzyme A,and metabolism of alpha-linolenic acid metabolism,glycerophospholipid metabolism,and sphingolipid.CONCLUSION:The liver and kidney YDS is closely related to the biosynthesis of pantothenic acid and CoA and abnormal metabolism of α-linolenic acid,glycerophospholipid,and sphingolipid in SD rats.
