ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To explore the mechanism of Pi (Spleen)-deficiency-induced functional diarrhea (FD) model rats treated by Shenling Baizhu Powder (, SBP).@*METHODS@#Thirty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 5 groups including control, model, low-, medium-, and high-dose SBP groups (SBPLDG, SBPMDG, SBPHDG), 6 rats in each group, respectively. Pi-deficiency-induced FD rats model was developed through Radix et Rhizoma Rhei gavage for 7 days. After modeling, the rats were treated with 3 doses of SBP [0.93, 1.86, and 3.72 g/(kg·d)], and the rats in the control and model groups were given pure water for 7 days. The diarrhea index was calculated. On the 7th and 14th days, the traveled distance of rat was measured by the open field test. Serum D-xylose content was determined by the phloroglucinol method and interleukin (IL)-10 and IL-17 levels were measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit. The content of Treg cells was determined by flow cytometry.@*RESULTS@#Compared with the control group, the diarrhea index and IL-17 level in the model group were significantly higher and the total exercise distance and D-xylose content significantly decreased (P>0.05). The expression of IL-10 in the SBPHDG group was significantly up-regulated, and serum D-xylose level and Treg cells increased significantly compared with the model group (P>0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#High-dose SBP exhibited ameliorating effects against Pi-deficiency induced FD, which might be attributed to its modulations on intestinal absorption function as well as adaptive immunity in mesenteric lymph nodes of rat.
ABSTRACT
Functional diarrhea is a common disease of the digestive tract system. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) mainly included herbal formulea, acupuncture and moxibustion to treat the functional diarrhea, according to the principles of strengthening spleen and moistening, nourishing spleen and kidney, and soothing liver. In recent years, many studies have been conducted on the effective mechanism of TCM treatment of functional diarrhea. However, further researches needed to be done on the micro-mechanism of TCM syndrome differentiation for functional diarrhea.

ABSTRACT
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common, chronic functional gastrointestinal disorder affecting the large intestine, and presents as abdominal pain and/or discomfort, bloating, gas retention, diarrhea, and constipation. IBS impairs quality-of-life and requires long-term management. In 2016, the Rome Foundation introduced new IBS diagnostic criteria (the Rome IV criteria), and also revised the diagnostic algorithms for, and the multidimensional clinical profile (MDCP) of, functional gastrointestinal disorders. The IBS MDCP includes clinical data, the extent to which normal daily activities are affected, and psychosocial and physiological measures. The criteria seek to aid physicians in choosing appropriate treatment for IBS patients. Herein, we seek to provide evidence- based practical information on IBS and functional diarrhea. We review the new Rome diagnostic IV criteria, the MDCP, and the various IBS treatment options. We suggest that, in clinical practice, combination therapies may be useful to treat patients with IBS of various grades.

Objective To study the clinical efficacy of live combined bacillus subtilis and enterococcus faecium enteric-coated capsules combined with trimebutine maleate and psychological intervention in the treatment of functional diarrhea. Methods 100 patients with functional diarrhea treated in our hospital from May 2015 to August 2016 were selected and randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group, with 50 patients in each group. The control group were treated with trimebutine maleate treatment, the experimental group were treated with live combined bacillus subtilis and enterococcus faecium enteric-coated capsules trimebutine therapy and psychological intervention, pay attention to the psychological status of patients and patients, strengthen communication and exchanges, increase confidence in the treatment and the treatment compliance of patients. The therapeutic effects of the experimental group and the control group were compared and analyzed. Results After the corresponding treatment, the effective rate was 92.0％ in the experimental group and 84.0％ in the control group. The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). There was no obvious adverse reaction in the experimental group and the control group. After treatment, the number of diarrhea in the experimental group was (3.0±0.3), significantly less than that of the control group (4.3±0.3), the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion The clinical effect of live combined bacillus subtilis and enterococcus faecium enteric-coated capsules combined with trimebutine maleate and psychological intervention in the treatment of functional diarrhea is good, can improve clinical symptoms in a large extent, has the meaning of promotion.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the efficacy of electroacupuncture(EA) on the acupoint combination of He-(sea) points, front-mu points, and shu-points(abbrev. He-Mu-Shu) for the treatment of functional diarrhea, and to explore the effect of He-Mu-Shu point combination EA on the anxiety of patients. Methods A randomized controlled clinical trial was performed in 62 functional diarrhea patients. All of the patients were randomly divided into He-Mu-Shu group(32 cases) and medicine group(30 cases). He-Mu-Shu group was treated with EA on unilateral Quchi, Shangjuxu, Tianshu, Dachangshu point alternatively, and medicine group was treated with oral use of Loperamide hydrochloride capsules. Both groups were treated for 4 continuous weeks. Defecation frequency, stool property and anxiety scores were observed before treatment and 2, 4 weeks after treatment. Results After treatment, weekly defecation frequency, stool property and anxiety scores were improved in both groups, and the differences were statistically significant compared with those before treatment(P < 0.05). He-Mu-Shu point combination EA had better effect on improving weekly defecation frequency, stool property and anxiety scores of functional diarrhea patients than Loperamide hydrochloride capsules, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion The clinical efficacy and anxiety-relief action of He-Mu-Shu point combination EA on functional diarrhea are superior to oral use of Loperamide hydrochloride capsules.

La diarrea funcional se presenta con frecuencia en la práctica pediátrica, y generalmente no se asocia a alteraciones nutricionales, pero sí a esquemas dietéticos incorrectos. Se actualiza su importancia clínica, se hace énfasis en la patogenia, diagnóstico y en los métodos de tratamiento. Consideramos que es la causa más frecuente de diarrea crónica inespecífica y que el interrogatorio dirigido según los criterios de Roma es útil para su diagnóstico. La mayoría de los pacientes con esta enfermedad en la infancia deben ser tratados en la atención primaria
The functional diarrhea is frequent in the pediatric practice and in general it is not associated with nutritional alterations, but to incorrect dietary schemes. Its clinical significance is updated and its pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment methods are emphasized. Authors considered that the functional diarrhea is the more frequent cause of unspecific chronic diarrhea and the questioning directed according the Rome criteria is very useful for its diagnosis. Most of patients presenting with this disease during childhood must to be treated in primary care services

Os critérios de Roma foram desenvolvidos para padronizar a classificação dos distúrbios gastrointestinais funcionais de crianças usando como base os sintomas relatados. Os parentes muitas vezes têm importante papel na descrição dos sintomas das crianças. Os critérios de Roma foram estabelecidos por um grupo de especialistas internacionais. Estas informações levarão à melhor compreensão das diferentes apresentações clínicas dos distúrbios funcionais, maior acurácia do diagnóstico e aprimoramento nas investigações e tratamento destas desordens. Os distúrbios gastrointestinais funcionais são: regurgitação infantil, síndrome de ruminação infantil, síndrome dos vômitos cíclicos, dispepsia funcional, síndrome do intestino irritável, dor abdominal funcional, enxaqueca abdominal, aerofagia, diarréia funcional, constipação funcional, disquesia infantil, retenção fecal funcional, escape fecal funcional não retentivo...
The Pediatric Rome Criteria were developed to standardize the classification of functional gastrointestinal disorders of children using a symptom-based approach. The parents often play a large role in reporting their child's symptoms. The Rome Criteria has been established by a multinational team of experts. These intor- mations will lead to a better understanding of the different clinical presentations of functional disorders, more accurate diagnosis, and therefore improve treatment and investigations of the disor- ders. The functional Gastrointestinal disorders are: infant regurgi- tation, infant rumination syndrome, cyclic vomiting syndrome, functional dyspepsia, irritable bowel syndrome, functional abdo- minal pain, abdominal migraine, aerophagia, functional diarrhea, functional constipation, functional fecal retention and non-retentive fecal soiling...
