Methods: Rabbit hemorrhagic shock models were set up according to Wiggers' method and treated with the combined therapy. Levels of RBC superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, plasma malondialdehyde (MDA), blood lactate (BL) and magnesium (Mg++ ) were continuously monitored before shock, 120 minutes after shock, 60 and 120 minutes after reinfusion. Results: (1) Levels of SOD decreased and MDA, AL, Mg++ increased markedly 120 minutes after shock, indicating that there existed cell membrane damage caused by oxygen free radicals in hemorrhagic shock.(2) The combination therapy could alleviate lipid peroxidation injury to tissue, enhance the activity of SOD and lower the concentration of MDA significantly, P < 0. 01 or 0. 05, as compared with the control group. Conclusion: The combined use of the three drugs could gain the same effect with half dosage as that gained from the whole dosage of one single drug. It could also reduce the negative effect of treatment, such as hypotension and slowing down of heart rate展开更多

Methods: HSCs from the LX-2 cell line were cultured in vitro. The proliferative state of different initial LX-2 cell numbers was measured using a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide(MTT) colorimetric assay. LX-2 cells were plated in 96-well plates at an approximate density of 2.50×10;cells/mL and cultured for 24 h followed by the application of different concentrations of SML(1, 2, 4 and 8 μL/mL). Cell proliferation was measured using the MTT assay at 24 and 48 h. Apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry at 24 h. LX-2 cells were treated with different concentrations of SML and extracted with protein lysis buffer. The levels of NDRG2 and β-catenin were measured by Western blot. Results: With the exception of the 1 and 2 μL/mL concentrations, 4 and 8 μL/mL SML inhibited cell proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner at 24 and 48 h(P<0.05). With the exception of the 1 and 2 μL/mL concentrations, the NDRG2 expression level was greatly increased in a concentration-dependent manner. However, the level of β-catenin was unaffected. Conclusion: SML inhibit LX-2 cell proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner, and the mechanism may be associated with NDRG2 over-expression.展开更多

Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in 174 patients with TH (all with a single eye wounded), of whom 92 patients were treated with dicynone and 82 with SMI, and their status of recurrent or aggravated hemorrhage within 5 days after trauma were analyzed. Further, a prospective study was conducted in 76 TH patients (all with a single eye wounded), who were treated with dicynone though they had hyphema 5 days after treatment. After the dicynone medication was discontinued, 39 of them were treated with Sl, but 37 were not. The status of hyphema absorption was observed. Results: The retrospective study showed that the number of cases with recurrent or aggravated bleeding in the SMI-treatment group was much more than that in the dicynone- treated group (Z=-2.531, P=0.011). On the other hand, the prospective study showed that the status of hyphema absorption among the SMI-treated patients was significantly better than in those untreated with SMI (Z=-2.642, P=0.008). Conclusion: SMI shows an effect of promoting the absorption of TH, and SMI treatment is worthy of being spread in clinical practice. For safety considerations, it is suitable to apply the treatment 5 days after trauma.展开更多

文摘The authors have used point-injection of compound Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae Injection to treat 40 cases of chronic eczema and achieved a satisfactory therapeutic effect. The total effective rate was 95%.
文摘In the present paper, the effect of point-injection of Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae injectio on blood-lipid was observed in 65 cases of hyperlipemia. The 65 patients were divided into point-injection group (40 cases who were treated with point-injection of Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae injectio and oral administration of Shujiangzhi) and control group (25 cases who were treated with oral administration of Shujiangzhi only). Results showed that the total effective rate of the point-injection group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0. 05); point-injection of Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae injectio could effectively raise the level of HDL-C, decrease lower LDL-C and regulate estrogen level of women. The slow releasing action of red sage root solution in the topical acupoint region prolonged and enhanced its effect in lowering blood-lipid. There was a significant difference between the two groups in the effect of lowering blood-fat (P< 0. 01).
文摘Objective:To analyze the effect of adjuvant salvia miltiorrhiza and ligustrazine therapy on renal function, renal blood perfusion as well as connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 content in patients with chronic renal failure.Methods:80 patients with chronic renal insufficiency treated in our hospital between March 2013 and March 2016 were selected for study and randomly divided into observation group (n=40) and control group (n=40). Control group received conventional therapy and observation group received conventional + adjuvant salvia miltiorrhiza and ligustrazine therapy. After 3 months of treatment, differences in renal function indexes, illness-related indexes, renal blood perfusion, CTGF and TGF-β1 content, and so on of two groups of patients were determined. Results: After 3 months of treatment, serum urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (Scr),β2 microglobulin (β2-MG), intermedin (IMD), fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), cystatin C (CysC), CTGF and TGF-β1 content as well as 24 h urine albumin excretion rate (UAER) level in urine of observation group were significantly lower than those of control group (P<0.05) while glomerular filtration rate (GFR) level and serum adiponectin (APN) content were significantly higher than those of control group (P<0.05);renal perfusion parameters renal cortex Tmax (ATc) and medulla Tmax (ATm) levels of observation group were significantly lower than those of control group while cortex peak intensity change (ΔAc), medulla peak intensity change (ΔAm) and peak intensity (PI) levels were significantly higher than those of control group.Conclusions:Adjuvant salvia miltiorrhiza and ligustrazine therapy can effectively control the overall condition of patients with chronic renal failure, and plays a positive role in improving renal function and increasing renal blood perfusion.
文摘Objective:To discuss the effect of salvia miltiorrhiza injection adjuvant therapy on systemic inflammatory stress state and nerve injury degree of children with bacterial meningitis. Methods: 68 cases of children with bacterial meningitis who were treated in our hospital from Feb. 2014 to Jan. 2017 were selected and were divided into control group (34 cases) and observation group (34 cases) based on random number table, and patients in both groups were treated with continuous treatment for 10 d. Differences of inflammatory mediator, oxidative stress index, nerve injury markers content in cerebrospinal fluid in both groups were compared. Results: Before treatment, differences of inflammatory mediator, oxidative stress index, nerve injury markers content in cerebrospinal fluid in both groups had no statistical significance. 10 d after treatment, inflammatory mediator IL-6, PCT, sVCAM-1, CRP content in cerebrospinal fluid of children in observation group was lower than that in control group;oxidative stress index MDA content in cerebrospinal fluid was lower than that in control group, and SOD content was higher than that in control group;nerve injury markers MBP, NSE, GFAP content in cerebrospinal fluid was lower than that in control group.Conclusion: salvia miltiorrhiza injection adjuvant therapy could effectively relieve the systemic inflammatory stress state and reduce the nerve damages of children with bacterial meningitis.
文摘Objective: To explore the therapeutic mechanism of the combined use of Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae, ligustrazine and Radix Sanchi in treating late hemorrhagic shock in rabbit. Methods: Rabbit hemorrhagic shock models were set up according to Wiggers' method and treated with the combined therapy. Levels of RBC superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, plasma malondialdehyde (MDA), blood lactate (BL) and magnesium (Mg++ ) were continuously monitored before shock, 120 minutes after shock, 60 and 120 minutes after reinfusion. Results: (1) Levels of SOD decreased and MDA, AL, Mg++ increased markedly 120 minutes after shock, indicating that there existed cell membrane damage caused by oxygen free radicals in hemorrhagic shock.(2) The combination therapy could alleviate lipid peroxidation injury to tissue, enhance the activity of SOD and lower the concentration of MDA significantly, P < 0. 01 or 0. 05, as compared with the control group. Conclusion: The combined use of the three drugs could gain the same effect with half dosage as that gained from the whole dosage of one single drug. It could also reduce the negative effect of treatment, such as hypotension and slowing down of heart rate

文摘Objective: To investigate the effects of Salvia miltiorrhiza and Ligustrazine Injection(SML) on proliferation and apoptosis of human hepatic stellate cell LX-2 and the expression of N-myc downstreamregulated gene 2(NDRG2, a tumor suppressor gene). Methods: HSCs from the LX-2 cell line were cultured in vitro. The proliferative state of different initial LX-2 cell numbers was measured using a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide(MTT) colorimetric assay. LX-2 cells were plated in 96-well plates at an approximate density of 2.50×10;cells/mL and cultured for 24 h followed by the application of different concentrations of SML(1, 2, 4 and 8 μL/mL). Cell proliferation was measured using the MTT assay at 24 and 48 h. Apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry at 24 h. LX-2 cells were treated with different concentrations of SML and extracted with protein lysis buffer. The levels of NDRG2 and β-catenin were measured by Western blot. Results: With the exception of the 1 and 2 μL/mL concentrations, 4 and 8 μL/mL SML inhibited cell proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner at 24 and 48 h(P<0.05). With the exception of the 1 and 2 μL/mL concentrations, the NDRG2 expression level was greatly increased in a concentration-dependent manner. However, the level of β-catenin was unaffected. Conclusion: SML inhibit LX-2 cell proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner, and the mechanism may be associated with NDRG2 over-expression.

文摘Objective:To investigate the effects of Salvia Miltiorrhiza Liguspyragine Hydrochloride and Glucose Injection(参芎葡萄糖注射液,SLGI) on the expression of platelet membrane receptors proteinase-activated receptor-1(PAR1) and proteinase-activated receptor-4(PAR4) in end-stage renal disease(ESRD) patients on chronic haemodialysis(HD).Methods:Eighty-six ESRD patients on HD(treated group) were treated with SLGI,7 days as one therapeutic course,for two successive courses.The previous therapies were unchanged.Flow cytometry was used to assess the expression of platelet PAR1 and PAR4 in the patients,and turbidity method was used to determine the platelet maximum aggregation rate(MAR).Meanwhile,renal function was measured.The final data were compared with those before treatment and with those in the normal control group(54 healthy subjects).Results:Compared with the normal control group,the expressions of PAR1 and PAR4 and platelet MAR in ESRD patients on HD was significantly higher before treatment(P=0.001,P=0.006, and P=0.008);after treatment with SLGI,the above indices in patients were remarkably decreased(P=0.036 and P=0.046),except PAR4(P=0.067),but still higher than those in the normal control group,however,it was not statistically significant.Conclusions:(1) The overexpression of PAR1 and PAR4 might lead to increased platelet aggregation and this could be one of the reasons for the thrombotic events in ESRD patients on HD.(2) SLGI was able to down-regulate the expression of PAR1 in ESRD patients on HD,improve platelet function,and regulate platelet activation.
文摘Objective: To observe the effect of Salvia miltiorrhiza Injection (SMI) in treating traumatic hyphema (TH) and the opportune time for its application. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in 174 patients with TH (all with a single eye wounded), of whom 92 patients were treated with dicynone and 82 with SMI, and their status of recurrent or aggravated hemorrhage within 5 days after trauma were analyzed. Further, a prospective study was conducted in 76 TH patients (all with a single eye wounded), who were treated with dicynone though they had hyphema 5 days after treatment. After the dicynone medication was discontinued, 39 of them were treated with Sl, but 37 were not. The status of hyphema absorption was observed. Results: The retrospective study showed that the number of cases with recurrent or aggravated bleeding in the SMI-treatment group was much more than that in the dicynone- treated group (Z=-2.531, P=0.011). On the other hand, the prospective study showed that the status of hyphema absorption among the SMI-treated patients was significantly better than in those untreated with SMI (Z=-2.642, P=0.008). Conclusion: SMI shows an effect of promoting the absorption of TH, and SMI treatment is worthy of being spread in clinical practice. For safety considerations, it is suitable to apply the treatment 5 days after trauma.
