ABSTRACT
Objective:To determine the contents of quercetin, kaempferol, total flavonoids and extracts in 52 samples of Lysimachiae Herba collected from different origins; To analyze the quality differences of Lysimachiae Herba among different producing areas. Methods:The quercetin and kaempferol contents of the Lysimachiae Herba from Guizhou Province, Sichuan Province and Chongqing were determined by HPLC, and the total flavonoids were determined by Symergy HTX microplate reader. Results:The total content of quercetin and kaempferol in 52 samples was among 0.146 2-2.517 0 mg/g, with an average content of 0.872 6 mg/g, among which the average content of Sichuan was 1.073 2 mg/g, that of Guizhou was 0.705 4 mg/g, and that of Chongqing was 0.865 1 mg/g. Among them, 20 samples reached the standard of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. The average content of the samples that met the standard was 1.439 7 mg/g. The compliance rate of samples collected in Guizhou, Sichuan and Chongqing reached 12.5%, 62.5%, and 38.8% respectively. The total flavonoid content of 52 samples was among 0.994 2- 3.866 4 mg/g, and 52 samples were in conformity with the ethanol hot extract standard of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. Conclusions:The total contents of quercetin and kaempferol from different sources in Sichuan, Guizhou and Chongqing are quite different, and the total contents of quercetin and kaempferol collected from the same district and county are also quite different, and the compliance rate is low. There are great differences in total flavonoids in different producing areas and different populations of Lysimachiae Herba samples collected in the field.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To study the correlation between fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) and airway reversibility in children with IgE-mediated asthma.@*METHODS@#A total of 86 children, aged 6-14 years, who were initially diagnosed with acute attack of asthma from September 2016 to August 2018 were enrolled as subjects. According to the results of serum specific IgE, they were divided into IgE mediated group with 61 children and non-IgE mediated group with 25 children. According to the results of allergen detection, the IgE mediated group was further divided into four groups with one, two, three, and four or more positive allergens. FeNO and the parameters of pulmonary ventilation function before and after dilation test were measured. Pearson correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlation of FeNO with each parameter of pulmonary function.@*RESULTS@#The IgE mediated group had significantly higher FeNO than the non-IgE mediated group (P0.05). In the non-IgE mediated group, FeNO level was not correlated with the above indicators (P>0.05).@*CONCLUSIONS@#FeNO level is associated with the degree of allergies. For children with IgE-mediated asthma, FeNO is positively correlated with airway reversibility, which has a certain value in the diagnosis of asthma, disease evaluation, and understanding of airway reversibility. For children with non-IgE-mediated asthma, FeNO cannot be used to evaluate airway reversibility. These two types of asthma should be treated differently.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the toxic effect on mouse administrated Kudiezi injection multy times a day, and on rats repeat administrated for many days.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Mouse tail intravenous injection of Kudiezi, 0.04 mL x g(-1), 3 times a day, rats tail intravenous injection of Kudiezi, 20, 10, 4 mL x kg(-1), once a day, for 6 weeks.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>There is no abnormal to the mouses administrated many times a day. The rats administrated large doses of drug for many days have certain effects on hematology, blood biochemistry. Some animals appear liver, kidney lesions mild, injection local appear haemorrhage, edema and inflammatory reaction.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The mouse which was intravenous injection in the dose of 180 times Kudiezi injection as much as people used, revealed no toxicity reaction. Repeated large-dose administration, rats caused by lesions of the main target organs may be for kidney, liver. But the recovery result on liver, kidney toxicity was reversible, no delayed toxicity. At the same time, large doses of long-term administration of local have a certain irritation. Tips the medication should be under the guidance of doctors, and pay attention to replace the injection site. This research will provide safety basis for the clinical use of Kudiezi injection.</p>
