ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To study the new formula of effective components in TCM for anti-allergic rhinitis (AR),and pro-vide reference for developing TCM preparations for anti-AR. METHODS:Using pseudoephedrine hydrochloride (0-13.5 mg/kg), total alkaloid extracts of Aconitum carmichaelii (0-21.18 mg/kg),volatile oil of asari radix (0-0.0092 mL/kg) in Mahuang Fuzi Xixin decoction as formula objects,uniform design method was used for drug grouping,and multiple regression analysis was con-ducted for the behavioral scores before and after administration,contents of histamine and immunoglobulin E (IgE) in serum of AR guinea pigs to obtain the best formula. Using Xinqin granule,Loratadine tablet,Mahuang Fuzi Xixin decoction respectively as positive control,efficacy of the best formula was verified from aspects of behavioral scores before and after administration,con-tents of histamine and IgE of AR guinea pigs. And the safety of the best formula was preliminarily observed through acute toxicity test in mice. RESULTS:The best formula was as follow as pseudoephedrine hydrochloride 11.25 mg/kg,total alkaloid extracts of A. carmichaelii 21.18 mg/kg,volatile oil of asari radix 0.0045 mL/kg. Compared with each positive drug group,there were no sig-nificant differences in behavioral scores before and after administration in the best formula group(P>0.05). While compared with Xinqin granule group and Mahuang Fuzi Xixin decoction group,histamine content in serum in the best formula group was signifi-cantly reduced (P<0.05);compared with Xinqin granule and Loratadine tablet group,IgE content in serum in the best formula group was significant decreased (P<0.05). Median lethal dose of the best formula was 1822.04 mg/kg. CONCLUSIONS:The screened best formula shows better effect than Xinqin granule and Mahuang Fuzi Xixin decoction in terms of reducing histamine content in serum,better than Loratadine tablet and Xinqin granule in terms of reducing IgE content in serum,with good safety, which indicates the feasibility of TCM effective component formula to a certain degree.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To summarize the clinical datas of thepatients with invasive laryngeal fungal infections in, discuss pathogenesis and treatment methods.@*METHOD@#Eleven cases of invasive laryngeal fmycosis who were collected from September 2006 to February 2010 with electronic laryngoscopy, aspirate smear and culture and tissue biopsy for pathological diagnosis, were restrospectively analyzed. Those patients were received iv fluconazole, treatment of Oxygen Atomization of amphotericin B solution and taking itraconazole orally. The hepatic and renal functions of the patients were monitored in the course of treatment.@*RESULT@#All the cases were diagnosed of invasive laryngeal mycosis. 1 patient showed liver dysfunction in the second week during treatment. And continuing the treatment after using liver protection drugs. All symptoms of the patients were improved and no recurrence happened during the 1-6 years of follow-up.@*CONCLUSION@#Invasive laryngeal fmycosis was correlated with occupation exposure, abusing of antibiotics and low immunity. Laryngeal mycosis was Diagnosised mainly depended on the pathological examination. The positive rates of the secretion smear was low. The effects of iv fluconazole, Oxygen Atomization of amphotericin B 2-4 weeks, and 4 weeks of taking itraconazole orally were safety and reliable.
