STUDY ON ACUPUNCTURE AND MOXIBUSTION THERAPY FOR FEMALE URETHRAL SYNDROME

Among 180 patients with female urethral syndrome, 128 were treated by acupuncture and moxibustion and 52 by western medicine as controls. The short-term effective rate in the acupuncture and moxibustion group was 90.6% and the long-term effective rate, 80.4%; whereas the short-term effective rate of the control group was 26.9% (P 0.05). Sixty-nine cases from the acupuncture and moxibustion group and 39 from the control group were subjected before and after treatment to determinations of the maximal bladder pressure, maximal abdominal pressure, bladder-neck pressure, and maximal urethral closure pressure during urination. All these indexes were decreased remarkably in the acupuncture and moxibustion group, while no changes were observed in the control group.

Diagnosis,Treatment and Experience of A Case of Feline Lower Urinary Tract Syndrome

In February 2018,a 2-year-old American shorthair was treated conservatively for cystitis caused by crystalluria.However,as long as drug withdrawal was proceeding,the condition would be repeated,and the condition worsened since August.In order to diagnose and treat the sick cat,clinical examination,laboratory examination,X-ray,B-type ultrasound and other methods were used for diagnosis,and treatment was conducted according to the diagnosis results.The results showed that the cat was caused by ammoniomagnesium phosphate crystals blocking urethra,complicated with postrenal azotaemia and hyperkalemia.The relapse continued after conservative treatment,and the cat finally recovered by modifying urethra surgically.The results showed that the deficiency of drinking water,the change of urine pH,and high dietary magnesium and fiber content could promote the occurrence of the disease.For the problem of urethral obstruction that could not be solved by conservative treatment,operation was done to modify urethral stricture.

刘启泉从“通调五脏安脾胃”论治尿道综合征经验

总结刘启泉教授从“通调五脏安脾胃”论治尿道综合征的临证经验。刘教授认为,尿道综合征病位在尿道,核心病机为脾胃不和,湿邪阻滞,水道不利,治疗应以“安脾胃”贯穿始终。同时,该病与五脏不调密切相关,外感、内伤、情志、饮食、劳倦及脏腑失调等均会影响五脏功能继而发病。临床中基于“通调五脏安脾胃”思想,根据患者症状表现,综合运用升清降浊以和胃通淋、养心清心以泻热通淋、益肺泻热以利湿通淋、补肾温阳以化气通淋、疏肝清肝以行气通淋的方法指导治疗,可使五脏调和,水道得利,症状缓解,淋证得瘥。

Curative Effect of Special Acupuncture Techniques on Female Urethral Syndrome and its Relationship with the Course of Treatment

Purpose To observe the curative effect of special acupuncture techniques on female urethral syndrome and its relationship with the course of treatment.Method Four abdominal and four sacral empirical points were acupunctured with special techniques and electricity. A difference in curative effect was investigated between different numbers of treatments.Results The clinical cure rate reached 15.2% just after ≤10 (7.3±1.3) treatments. The curative effect was significantly better after 20–40 (32.1±5.8) treatments than after ≤10 (7.3±1.3) treatments ({ie19-1},P<0.05). The clinical cure rate reached 43.5% in the former.Conclusion Special acupuncture techniques have a good clinical effect on female urethral syndrome. The curative effect improves with an increase in the number of treatments.

In vivo assessment of structural changes of the urethra in lower urinary tract disease using cross-polarization optical coherence tomography

The paper presents the results of a study of the female urethra in cases of urethral pain syndrome(UPS)and inflammatory diseases of the lower urinary tract using cross-polarization optical coherence tomography(CP OCT).Urethral wall structure was studied in 86 patients;233 CP OCT images were collected.A comparative qualitative analysis of three groups of CP OCT images—"norm","Inflammation"and"UPS"—identified that despite the absence of a clear inflammatory factor in the patient's examination,the urethral tissues in UPS were in an altered state.The changes in the urethral wall with UPS and in cases of inflammation were similar.Using a point scale,three experts independently performed visual scoring of the CP OCT images.Three parameters:epithelial contrast,cavities and the minimum signal depth in the co-channel were evaluated.It was found that,individually,the parameters correlate only weakly with the diag-nosis.Area under the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was from 0.51 to 0.78.The joint use of a number of visual signs has a greater diagnostic value than the use of the criteria individually.Area under the ROC curve using the developed cumulative criterion reached up to 0.87-0.89.This study could form the basis of a scoring system for assessing the state of the urethral tract using CP OCT images in real time.The CP OCT method provides information on the state of urethral tissues that cannot be obtained with traditional cystoscopy.

重构本草——金钱草

通过对古籍文献调研、国内外中药现代研究进展及其研究成果的梳理,结合中医临床及中药学等学科领域内的专家学者的认识及应用经验,经问卷调查及多轮专家讨论,形成关于金钱草的以下意见:功效主要为利湿退黄,利尿通淋,解毒消肿。症靶为黄疸和尿道刺激征,标靶为胆囊结石、泌尿系结石、高转氨酶、胆汁反流。现代药理研究发现金钱草及其有效成分具有利胆排石、利尿排石、抗炎抗菌、保肝解毒等作用。本品凡阴疽诸毒,脾虚泄泻者,忌捣汁生服。过敏体质患者慎用。临床使用剂量为1~250 g,内服时当根据不同疾病,或同一疾病的不同阶段进行辨证使用,并积极探索金钱草用量与症靶、标靶的量效关系构建。
