ABSTRACT
AIM To investigate the effects of Shuxuening Injection (Ginkgo biloba leaf extract) on serum lactic acid (Lac),soluble CD14-st (Presepsin) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) levels in sepsis patients.METHODS One hundred and eight patients with sepsis treated by routine treatment in our hospital from Jan.2014 to Oct.2016 were randomly divided into two groups,control group and Shuxuening group (therapy group).Two weeks were one therapeutic course.Before the treatment (the onset of patients within 3 hours),at 6 hours and 5 days after the treatment,Lac and Presepsin levels were detected,and the changes of nitric oxide (NO),NOS,inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score were observed.Incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) and 28-day survival were recorded at the same time.RESULTS Before the treatment,there were no significant differences in SOFA score and the levels of Lac,Presepsin,NO,NOS and iNOS between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Six hours after the treatment,the levels of Lac and Presepsin in the therapy group were lower than those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05),both the two groups had lower levels of Lac and Presepsin than those before the treatment (P ＜ 0.05);five days after the treatment,the levels of Lac and Presepsin in the two groups were lower than those at 6 hours after the treatment (P ＜ 0.05),the levels of Lac and Presepsin in the therapy group were lower than those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The SOFA score,NO,NOS and iNOS levels after the treatment in the therapy group were lower than those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The levels of Lac and Presepsin in sepsis patients were positively correlated with SOFA score (r =0.245,0.261,P =0.011,0.006).The patients in the therapy group had lower incidence of MACE and 28-day mortality rate than those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).CONCLUSION The therapeutic effect of Shuxuening Injection combined with routine treatment on sepsis patients is superior to that of routine treatment,which can improve the prognosis of patients to a certain extent.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the clinical value of the level of plasma procalcitonin,blood lactic acid an1 endotoxin in patients of severe pneumonia complicated with sepsis.Methods The 40 cases of severe pneumonia complicated with sepsis(observation group)were analyzed retrospectively,they were divided into survival group included 20 cases and the death group included 20 cases.Meanwhile the 20 cases of healthy persons were selected as control group.The worst score of Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) within 24 hours after admission were record.The level of plasma procalcitonin,blood lactic acid and endotoxin were compared between three groups.In addition do a correlation study between the above indexes and the score of APACHE Ⅱ.Results The level of plasma Procalcitonin,blood lactic acid and endotoxin of observation group increased significantly compared with the control group [(0.02±0.01 ng/ml,0.87 ± 0.27 mmol/L,4.15±1.63 pg/ml) vs (18.29±11.02 ng/ml,6.55 ± 3.02 mmol/L and 15.5±10.38 pg/ml),t=10.48,11.79,6.75,all P＜0.05].The level of plasma procalcitonin,blood lactic acid and endotoxin of the death group increased significantly compared with the survival group [(9.52±2.93 ng/ml,4.26±1.78 mmol/L,7.62±3.04 pg/ml) vs (27.06±8.88 ng/ml,8.84± 2.14 mmol/L and 23.39± 9.00 pg/ml),t=8.39,7.35,7.42,all P＜0.05].In the all patients of severe pneumonia complicated with sepsis,there was positive correlation among plasma procalcitonin,blood lactic acid,endotoxin and the score of APACHE Ⅱ (r=0.919,P=0.001;r=0.914,P=0.002;r=0.909,P=0.004).Conclusion The level of plasma procalcitonin,blood lactic acid and endotoxin are very important indexes in assessment of the severity and the prognosis of severe pneumonia complicated with sepsis,that has important value in clinical application.

ABSTRACT
@#Objective To study effect of anti-fatigue of a ginger fruit and vegetable beverage. Methods The blood lactic acid (LAC), malondialdehyde (MAD) and BUN of the mice were determined after loading swimming, hypoxia endurance experiments to observe anti-fatigue effect.Results The beverage can enhance the body's aerobic metabolism and reduce the blood LAC, MDA and BUN. Conclusion The ginger fruit and vegetable beverage has anti-fatigue effect.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To study the antifatigue effect of tea containing Acanthopanax senticosus.Methods: Forty eight mice were randomized into 4 groups:three groups of tea containing Acanthopanax senticosus at doses of 50, 75, 100 ml/(kg?d), and the saline group.After 4 w, muscle and liver glycogen, serum LDH activity, BUN and blood LAC were measured.Results: Three tea groups showed increase of muscle and liver glycogen,and serum LDH activity, and decrease of serum BUN and LAC in swimming mice.The 75-100 ml/(kg?d) group was the best.Conclusion: Tea containing Acanthopanax senticosus has antifatigue effect.
