RESUMEN
ObjectiveTo observe the effectiveness and safety of Qihuang Yishen Granules （芪黄益肾颗粒） combined with traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） chronic disease management on patients with diabetic kidney disease with deficiency qi and yin. MethodsTotally 140 patients diagnosed as diabetic kidney diseases with deficiency of both qi and yin were randomly divided into control group and trial group，with 70 cases in each group. Patients in the control group were treated with symptomatic treatment and routine chronic disease management. Patients in the trial group added Qihuang Yishen Granules and chronic disease management with TCM characteristics on the basis of symptomatic treatment. The course of treatment in both groups lasted for 6 months. The changes of laboratory indexes and chronic disease management level scores of the two groups of patients before treatment and after 3 and 6 months of treatment were compared， and their correlation were analyzed.The laboratory indexes of urinary protein and renal function related indicators such as 24-hour urinary protein quantification （24 hUTP）， serum creatinine （Scr）， blood urea nitrogen （BUN）， and estimated glomerular filtration rate （eGFR）， and control compliance rate， as well as blood glucose and lipid related indicators such as glycosylated hemoglobin （HbA1c）， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C）， triglyceride （TG） and control compliance rate were observed. The chronic disease management level scores included exercise，cognitive symptom management practice，communication with doctors， self-efficacy of symptom management，self-efficacy of disease commonness management. ResultsFinally，67 cases in the control group and 68 cases in the trial group completed the study. Compared with the group before treatment， the trial group had lower 24 hUTP and Scr， higher exercise score， total self-management score and all self-efficacy scale scores， higher TG at 3 months of treatment； at 6 months of treatment， the trial group had lower 24 hUTP， higher eGFR， and higher self-management scores and self-efficacy scale scores of all chronic diseases （P＜0.05）， and the control group had higher self-management total score （P＜0.05）. After 6 months of treatment， the trial group had lower 24 hUTP， Scr， LDL-C， and TG， higher eGFR， higher compliance rate of 24 hUTP， eGFR， LDL-C， and TG， and higher scores for all chronic disease management indexes compared with the control group （P＜0.05）. In terms of the correlation between laboratory indicators and chronic disease management level scores：there was a statistically significant difference in the correlation between 24hUTP and exercise，symptom management self-efficacy，and self-efficacy of disease commonness management （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01），all of which were negatively correlated. There was a statistically significant difference in the correlation between Scr and symptom management self-efficacy and self-efficacy of disease commonness management （P＜0.01），both of which were negatively correlated. There was a statistically significant difference in the correlation between eGFR and symptom management self-efficacy and self-efficacy of disease commonness management （P＜0.01），both of which were positively correlated. ConclusionQihuang Yishen Granules combined with chronic disease management of TCM can improve the level of proteinuria，renal function and lipid metabolism in patients with diabetic kidney disease with deficiency of both qi and yin，thus delaying the progress of diabetic kidney disease and also improve the level of chronic disease management of patients.
RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the effects ofYiqi Yangyin Huoxue Formula on clinical endpoints of diabetic nephropathy patients.Methods Totally 95 patients who were involved into the six-month DN clinical RCT for observation in 2008 were retrospectively collected and screened. There are 47 cases in the trial group, who were chronically treated by integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine therapy which mainly adoptingYiqi Yangyin Huoxue Formula. There were 48 cases in the control group, who were chronically treated with Western medicine. Follow-up visits were conducted in 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014 respectively. Long-term incidence rate of renal function progress/deaths were compared in the two groups.Results Five cases died in the trial group, among which one case died of renal failure. Eight cases died in the control group, among which five died of renal failure and multiple organ failure. The incidence of endpoints entering end-stage renal disease and renal function progress was much lower than that of control group. Conclusion Integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine therapy dominated byYiqi Yangyin Huoxue Formula has good clinical efficacy of kidney protection, and can slow the progress of DN patients entering end-stage renal disease, and better than single Western medicine intervention.
RESUMEN
Objective To explore the diagnostic values of adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity,C-readive protein (CRP) content and IFN-γ content for tuberculous pleurisy.Methods Fifty-nine cases with tuberettlous pleurisy,20 cases malignant tumor with pleural fluid and 12 cases of the other pleural fluid were studied,ADA activity,CRP content and IFN-γ content of pleurnl fluid and serum were detected in those patients.Results The pleural fluid activity of ADA[(50.98±13.07)U/L],content of CRP[(142.90±51.42)mg/L]and content of IFN-γ [(139.46±70.43)ng/L] in tuberculous pleurisy were significantly higher than those in malignant tumor and the other pleural fluid (P＜0.05 or＜0.01).When regarded 45 U/L as critical value of ADA in tnberculous pleurisy,the sensitive rate,special rate and clinical diagnose accordance rate were 80.4%,96.9%and 86.4%respectively,110,mg/L as critical value of CRP,they were 78.6%,81.2%,and 79.5% respectvely.100 ng/L as critical value of IFH-γ,they were 83.9%,93.8% and 87.5% respeelively.Combined detection of them in tuberculous pleurisy,the sensitive tale,specinl rate and clinical diagnose accordance rate were 94.5%,97.8% and 94.3% respectively.Conclusion Combined delection of ADA activity,CRP content and IFN-γ content in pleural fluid can improve the diagnosis of tuberculous pleurisy.
