ABSTRACT
Objective To observe clinical efficacy of Qilin Pills combined with Three-Spot Caressing in the treatment of acquired non-consolidated kidney qi premature ejaculation (PE). Methods Totally 129 acquired non-consolidated kidney qi PE patients were randomly divided into TCM group, Fangzhognshu group and combination group. TCM group was given Qilin Pills, 6 g each time, three times a day, orally. Fangzhognshu group was guided to conduct Three-spot Caressing during sexual intercourse, no less than twice a week. Combination group was given Qilin Pills and Three-spot Caressing with the same method as Fangzhognshu group. The treatment course for each group lasted for 8 weeks. Before and after treatment of 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 4 weeks after with drawal, the intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT), Chinese Index of Sexual Function for Premature Ejaculation-5 (PECI-5) scores and TCM syndrome scores (TCMS) were compared. Results Compared with before treatment, IELT increased in three groups at different time points after treatment (P<0.05). In the combination group, IELT was superior to the other two groups (except for TCM group after 4-week treatment), with statistical significance (P<0.05). Compared with before treatment, PECI-5 scores improved in three groups (except for Q6 and Q7 in Fangzhongshu group after 4-week treatment) at different time point after treatment (P<0.05). The improvement of Q5, Q6 and Q7 scores in PECI-5 of combination group was significantly better than that in the other two groups at 8-week treatment and 4-week after treatment (P<0.05). Compared with before treatment, TCMS in TCM group and combination group were improved significantly (P<0.05), PE and loss of libido score improved significantly in Fangzhongshu group (P<0.05);mental malaise and move spontaneous perspiration were significantly improved at 8-week treatment and 4 weeks after treatment (P<0.05). The improvement in TCMS was significantly better in combination group than that in the other two groups at 8-week treatment and 4 weeks after treatment (P<0.05). Conclusion Qilin Pills combined with Three-Spot Caressing has definite and long-term efficay for the treatment of acquired non-consolidated kidney qi PE.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the significance of combined detection of homocysteine(Hcy) and ischemia modified albu‐min(IMA) in serum to the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction(AMI) .Methods The serum levels of Hcy and IMA were detec‐ted in 80 patients with acute myocardial infarction ,60 patients with angina pectoris and 40 healthy subjects(control group) ,and the results were statistically analyzed .Results The concentration of Hcy and IMA in AMI patients was significantly higher than which in the control group ,the difference is statistically significant(P<0 .05);the sensitivity of the Hcy+ IMA combined diagnosis was higher than that of the single project .Hcy and IMA was positively related(P<0 .05) .Conclusion The combined detection of Hcy and IMA levels in patients with acute myocardial infarction has a good effect on early diagnosis and monitoring ,and it is worth popularizing .
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the correlation between serum lipoprotein associated phospholipase A2 (Lp‐PLA2) level and severity of coronary artery stenosis in the patients with coronary heart disease(CHD) and its clinical significance .Methods A total of 243 cases of CHD and suspected CHD were divided into the high‐risk group(at least 1 coronary artery vessel stenosis >50% ,n=102) and low‐risk group(single coronary artery vessel stenosis≤50% ,n=141) according to the coronary angiography re‐sults .The clinical data were collected and Lp‐PLA2 level was detected by ELISA .Results The serum Lp‐PLA2 level in the high‐risk group was significantly higher than that in the low‐risk group ,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0 .01) ,the sensitivity of Lp‐PLA2 for judging the high‐risk patients with CHD was 86 .3% ,the specificity was 96 .6% ,and the overall diagno‐sis accuracy was 98 .0% .Conclusion Lp‐PLA2 can better assess the risk of CHD patients and the serum Lp‐PLA2 level can reflect the severity of coronary artery lesion .
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of rosmarinic acid on the kidney function,urinary protein,serum MDA and SOD in rats with the 5/6 nephrectomy.Methods We established the rat model with chronic renal dysfunction and randomized them into normal control group,model control group and rosmarinic acid treatment group.There were 6 rats in each group.The blood creatinine level was recorded 2 weeks after operation.We detected the effects of rosmarinic acid on urinary protein,urine creatinine,blood creatinine,serum MDA and SOD in rats with the 5/6 nephretomy which was established by Ponseau S method.The treatment group received rosmarinic acid as an intervention.Results ( 1 ) Compared with control group,the creatinine and The creatinine clearance rate ( Ccr ) of rosmarinic acid treatment group increased ( F =38.912,P ＜ 0.01 ;F =19.968,P ＜ 0.05 ) after treatment,; (2) Rosmarinic acid improved the 24 h urine protein in rats with renal dysfunction significantly(F =16.288 P ＜0.01); (3) Rosmarinic acid had no effect on serum MDA and SOD in rats.Conclusion Rosmarinic acid can decrease urine protein and blood creatinine,increase the Ccr and alleviate kidney failure,but has no effects on MDA and SOD in rat model.
