Introduction to Professor Ma Guiqin's experience in treatment of occupational pneumoconiosis / 中国中药杂志

Occupational pneumoconiosis refers to a group of occupational pulmonary diseases,which is mainly characterized by diffuse fibrosis of lung tissue caused by inhalation of different pathogenic productive dust and retention in the lungs during occupational activities for a long period of time. According to the classification and catalogue of occupational diseases in China,it is mainly classified into 12 categories,such as silicosis,coal worker's pneumoconiosis,asbestos lung. At present,it is the most serious and most common occupational disease in China. The pathogenesis of pneumoconiosis is not clear,and there is still no effective therapy. In the past three years,it is found that traditional Chinese medicine is effective in the treatment of pneumoconiosis. Through collection of medical records,the regularity of the prescriptions used in the treatment of pneumoconiosis were analyzed and summarized. According to the traditional Chinese medicine theory,the clinical characteristics of recurrent cough,phlegm and asthma in patients with pneumoconiosis could be included in the categories of cough,wheezing,lung distension. Professor Ma Guiqin believes that the basic pathogenesis of pneumoconiosis is depression of the atmosphere,deficiency of the kidney,internal obstruction of phlegm,and adverse cardinality. According to its pathogenesis,the commonly used prescriptions,namely Shengxian Decoction,Jinshui Liujun Jian,Xiaochaihu Decoction,Sini Powder,Guomin Jian and syndrome differentiation-based modified medicines were expounded. In addition, " throat is the gateway to the lung and stomach",Professor Ma also believes that the prevention of pneumoconiosis should start with the throat,so as to curb the exacerbation or recurrence of the disease. Through clinical observation,if traditional Chinese medicine is properly used,and pathogenesis and syndrome differentiation-based treatment is provided,traditional Chinese medicine can relieve the clinical symptoms,and improve the exercise tolerance and the quality of life of patients with pneumoconiosis.

Kindergartens environmental pollution status and incidence of infectious diseases research of 2012 in Baoshan District, Shanghai / 上海预防医学

[Objective] To investigate the environmental pollution status and infectious diseases in kindergartens and nurseries in 2012 in Baoshan District . [ Methods] The questionaire was used in com-bination with data from monitoring of the disinfection effect of environment , monitoring analysis of routine infectious disease and others . [ Results] The overall pass rate was 97.91% for environmental disinfec-tion in kindergartens and nurseries , and it was higher in public kindergartens and nurseries than in private ones.The conventional infectious disease in kindergartens and nurseries was mainly hane-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD), whose incidence was higher in private kindergartens and nurseries than in public ones . And in terms of regional distribution , the incidence of HFMD was higher in streets and towns with more in-floating population than those with less .And the pass rate for the disinfection effect on the kindergartens nurseries and the incidence rate of HFMD were negatively correlated . [ Conclusion] Kindergartens and nurseries in our district should strengthen the complete configuration of hardware and software , establish standardized system of disinfection and isolation , and develop daily disinfection system , so as to reduce in-fectious disease .
