A Case Report on Treating Progressive Supranuclear Palsy with a Combination of Chinese and Western Medicine

A case of progressive supranuclear palsy in a 66-year-old woman is presented.The patient complained of“progressive stiffness of both lower limbs for five years,accompanied by choking and coughing for more than 1 year,”and was diagnosed with paralysis in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),which was characterized by a deficiency of liver and kidney,and phlegm and blood stasis blocking the collaterals.Western medicine diagnosed it as progressive supranuclear palsy.The patient was diagnosed with“Parkinson’s disease”several times in the past and was given“polybasic hydrazide”and“amantadine hydrochloride tablets,”etc.The patient did not have significant symptomatic relief,so she sought further treatment with a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine.Based on the concept of deficiency and excess,this disease is categorized as a paralytic disease in Chinese medicine,and the onset of the disease is closely related to the deficiency of the body after a long period of illness,with wind,phlegm,blood stasis,and deficiency as the main pathogenetic mechanism.The treatment is based on the combination of disease and evidence,with traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture as the main treatments,supplemented by intermediate-frequency pulsed electrical stimulation,transcranial repetitive magnetic stimulation,medicated canisters,wax therapy,traditional Chinese medicine guasha,and acupoint injections.Western medicine is based on symptomatic treatment,and the patient’s symptoms were relieved significantly after the combination of Chinese and Western medicine.

Clinical Efficacy of Western Medicine Combined with Chinese Medicine for Pelvic Inflammatory Disease(Damp-Heat and Stasis Type)

Objective:This study was undertaken to evaluate the clinical efficacy of Western medicine combined with Chinese medicine for pelvic inflammatory disease(damp-heat and stasis type).Methods:Seventy-four patients who were diagnosed with pelvic inflammatory disease(damp-heat and stasis type)by our hospital during July 2021 to July 2022 were randomized into two groups:the participants in the control group received conventional Western medicine treatment,and the participants in the study group received Western medicine combined with Chinese medicine.Results:After treatment,the total effectiveness of the control group(72.98%)was significantly lower than that of the study group(94.59%),(P<0.05);the whole blood viscosity high cut,whole blood viscosity low cut,fibrinogen and plasma viscosity of the control group were all lower than those of the study group(P<0.05);the levels of CRP,IL-6,and TNF-αin the control group were higher and IL-2 levels in the control group were lower than those in the study group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Western medicine combined with Chinese medicine is more effective in curing damp-heat and stasis-type pelvic inflammatory disease by improving the blood rheological indexes and lowering the level of inflammatory factors.

meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials of combined treatment with DGSN and western medicine on diabetic peripheral neuropathy

Objective:To systematically study the clinical effects of combined treatment with Dang gui si ni tang(DGSN)and western medicine(WM)on diabetic peripheral neuropathy.Methods:Seven databases,including Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),Chinese Biomedical Database(CBM),Wanfang full-text database,VIP Database for Chinese Technical Periodicals,MEDLINE,PubMed,Embase,were retrieved.Related references about randomized controlled trials on the combination of DGSN and WM on diabetic peripheral neuropathy published during January 2012 up to now(recent 5 years)were reviewed.Related grey literatures were also reviewed according to the selected articles.RevMan5.3 software was used to analyze the publish bias,and to compare the total clinical effects of the combination of DGSN and WM with WM alone.Results:Ultimately,19 randomized controlled trials with 1690 patients were incorporated.The results of meta-analysis showed that combined treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy with DGSN and WM showed better general efficacy compared with control group,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).The results of study showed homogeneity(P=0.94>0.05).The general efficacy of combined treatment with DGSN and WM was significantly higher than that of control group(P<0.00001,OR=3.98,95%CI:3.01~5.27).Conclusion:Compared with treatment with WM alone,combined treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy with DGSN and WM is more effective.Meanwhile,due to the limited literature samples and low quality of literatures,large samples and high quality of multi-center randomized controlled double-blind trials are needed to verify these results.

Clinical Observation of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine in the Treatment of Chronic Ulcerative Rectitis

Objective:To observe and compare whether the combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine can achieve more satisfactory results in the treatment of patients with chronic ulcerative rectitis(UR).Methods:70 cases of chronic ulcerative rectitis were selected in all hospitals of our hospital for comparison.Observation and control were set up.The number of people was the same,but there were differences in methods.The control group retained enema,and the observation group was treated with traditional Chinese medicine.Rectal mucosa scores after different treatments were compared to evaluate the effect of intervention.Results:It was found that the observation group scored lower(P<0.05),and the effect was better.Conclusion:For the treatment of patients with chronic ulcerative rectitis,the combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine will help to promote the prognosis of the disease,improve the problem of ulcer,promote the improvement of gastrointestinal function and bring a more positive impact.

Clinical Effect of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine on Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy

Objective:Patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy were treated with integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine,and the final results were observed.Methods:70 patients with such symptoms were randomly divided into two groups.The number of people is the same,and the treatment methods are different.The control group uses western medicine,while the observation group uses traditional Chinese medicine to evaluate the treatment effect.Results:After treatment,the effective rate of the observation group was(P<0.05),indicating that the treatment effect was significantly better.Conclusion:Patients with clinical diabetic peripheral neuropathy treated with routine nutrition and nerve repair,and with Chinese medicine,the effect is more satisfactory,and the effect is positive,so as to promote the optimization of their health.

中医和西医是两种独立的医学体系和诊疗模式,在强调肿瘤综合治疗的现今,探索并构建一种中西医结合肿瘤诊疗新模式意义重大。传统中医治疗肿瘤重视整体观、治未病,具有整体调节机体、实现带瘤生存、预防复发转移等优势,但在现代医学背景下,其面临诊断不明确、治疗不精准、疗效不确切、机制不清楚等难题。为了切实提高肿瘤治疗的临床疗效,该文基于传统中医的特色和优势,结合现代医学研究成果,提出“病-期-机-证-靶”的诊疗思路,初步构建中西医结合肿瘤诊疗新模式,以期实现中西医优势互补、协同增效。

非小细胞肺癌免疫检查点抑制剂相关性肺炎研究进展及中西医结合治疗

免疫检查点抑制剂(ICIs)主要包括细胞毒性T淋巴细胞抗原4(CTLA-4)抑制剂和程序性细胞死亡蛋白1/配体1(PD-1/PD-L1)抑制剂,为非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)患者带来显著的治疗效益。但是,在增强机体抗肿瘤免疫反应的同时,ICIs产生免疫相关不良事件(irAEs),包括免疫检查点抑制剂相关性肺炎(CIP)。虽然CIP临床发病率较低,但在一些严重病例中可能导致免疫治疗的延迟或终止,甚至危害生命。本文拟从CIP的临床表现、病理特征、生物学机制、易感人群、诊断与鉴别诊断以及中西医结合治疗等角度进行总结,以期更加清晰地认识CIP。
