ABSTRACT
Acute upper respiratory tract infection is the most common infectious disease in children's respiratory system. The pathogen to the main virus, can account for more than 90% of the primary upper respiratory tract infectio. However, there is no specific anti-viral drugs specifically for the disease, in addition to the existence of excessive, widespread use or even abuse of antibiotics.Long-term clinical practice has confirmed that Chinese medicine is safe and effective in treating acute upper respiratory tract infection in children. The author reviews the literatures of multiple databases, and analyzes the advantages of Chinese patent medicine in the treatment of acute upper respiratory tract infection in children from the perspective of clinical research and experimental basic research. It also puts forward the existing problems and possible research directions of Chinese patent medicine in the treatment of acute upper respiratory tract infection in children.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe curative effect of acupuncture treating children acute upper respiratory infections (AURI).Methods According to random digits table,150 children from clinic emergency department were averagely bring into a acupuncture treatment group and a western medicine treatment group.Patients in the acupuncture treatment group received the treatments of acupunctureing one side of “SiGuan”points,bloodletting in apex satyri,and reducing temperature with tepid sponge bath; while patients in the western medicine treatment group received the treatments of taking ibuprofen suspension,using external pyretolysis patches on forehead,and reducing temperature with an alcohol sponge bath.After the treatment,the near future therapeutic effects:the time of pyretolysis,fevering again in 24 hours and convulsion time,and the prostecdtive efficacy:the time of cough continuing,AURI happening again in 3 months and recovery time of appetite were both observed.Results The time of pyretolysis,fevering again in 24 hours,convulsion time,the time of cough continuing,recovery time of appetite and AURI happening again in 3 months of acupuncture treatment group was(15.6±5.8) minutes,(12.7±3.3) hours,(0.6±0.1) times,(2.3±1.8) days,(2.4±1.6)days,and (35.2±3.9) days respectively; and the western medicine treatment group was (25.5±7.3) minutes,(8.6±4.1) hours,(2.1±0.5) times (6.2±2.4) days,(3.8±1.5) days,and (18.4±5.2) days respectively.Comparing between the two groups,P＜0.05.Conclusion Acupuncture can significantly decrease the time of pyretolysis,cough continuing,recovery time of appetite and convulsion time,and significantly increase the time of fevering again in 24 hours and AURI happening again in 3 months in patients with AURI.
ABSTRACT
Los síndromes coronarios agudos que involucran a la parte derecha del corazón se acompañan de una elevada mortalidad, una compleja evolución clínica y un prolongado tiempo de hospitalización, así como de complicaciones mecánicas y eléctricas frecuentes. Es importante reconocer los signos y los síntomas relacionados con la extensión del proceso isquémico a las cavidades derechas, lo cual permite aplicar un tratamiento adecuado, que mejora el pronóstico a corto y largo plazo. En esta revisión se pretenden incluir los aspectos más relevantes relacionados con el diagnóstico, el pronóstico y el tratamiento de esta enfermedad.
Acute coronary syndromes involving the right side of the heart are associated with high mortality, a complex clinical evolution and lengthy hospitalization, as well as with frequent mechanical and electrical complications. It is important to recognize the signs and symptoms associated with the spread of ischemic disease to the right heart chambers, for giving the patient an appropriate treatment which can improve short-term and long-term prognosis. The purpose of this review is to summarize key aspects of the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of this condition.
