RESUMEN
It is believed that wind pathogen is one of the core pathogenic factors of small cell lung cancer (SCLC). The nature and pathogenic characteristics of wind pathogen are closely related to the occurrence and metastasis of SCLC. Mainly manifested as deficiency of both qi and yin, healthy qi deficiency of SCLC makes it susceptible to invasion of external wind. Simultaneously, there are internal wind pathogenesis such as yin deficiency causing wind, blood deficiency causing wind, phlegm, stasis and toxin causing wind, liver yang transforming into wind. The internal and external winds together lead to the disease. Therefore, it is proposed to treat SCLC from wind theory, that is, boosting qi and nourishing yin to extinguish wind with taizishen (Radix Pseudostellariae), wuweizi (Fructus Schisandrae Chinensis) and others; resolving phlegm and moving stasis to dispel wind with wind-dispelling and phlegm-resolving medicinals such as jiangcan (Bombyx Batryticatus), muhudie (Semen Oroxyli), fangfeng (Radix Saposhnikoviae), tianma (Rhizoma Gastrodiae), quanxie (Scorpio) and blood-invigorating and wind-dispelling medi-cinals such as danggui (Radix Angelicae Sinensis), chuanxiong (Rhizoma Chuanxiong) and danshen (Radix et Rhizoma Salviae Miltiorrhizae); attacking toxin and dissipating masses to dispel wind with shuizhi (Hirudo), dilong (Pheretima), fengfang (Nidus Vespae), quanxie, baihuashe (Agkistrodon), jiuxiangchong (Aspongopus) and other drastic medicinals; calming liver and extinguishing wind to prevent brain metastasis of SCLC with Tianma Gouteng Beverage (天麻钩藤饮) modification.
RESUMEN
This paper reported a case of severe COVID-19 in the recovery stage with acute lymphoblastic leukemia treated by integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine, with the intention of shedding light on the clinical diagnosis and treatment of similar conditions. The patient, who had acute lymphoblastic leukemia, developed COVID-19 infection during the bone marrow suppression period after chemotherapy. Treatment with western medicine was mainly anti-infection, symptomatic management, and supportive care. During the recovery stage, considering the patient's chemotherapy history and disease progression, the overall syndrome was identified as deficiency of both qi and yin and binding of phlegm and blood. Based on the “state-target” combined treatment strategy, herbal prescriptions were selected and modified to address the “deficiency state”, “disease target”, and “symptom target”. In addition to western medicine, the patient was administered with Shengmai Powder (生脉散) and Compound Zhebei Granules (复方浙贝颗粒) in its modifications to boost qi, nourish yin, and reinforce healthy qi, nourish and cool the blood, ultimately achieving satisfactory therapeutic effects.
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
Bipolar disorder (BD) is considered to be mainly related to qi, phlegm, fire and deficiency. Binding constraint of liver qi is the initial cause, while phlegm and qi interact obstruction as well as phlegm and fire interact binding is the key pathogenesis of the transformation between depression and mania, and deficiency of both qi and yin is the main reason of the protracted course of disease. In clinical practice, BD is divided into binding constraint of liver qi pattern, phlegm and qi interact obstruction pattern, phlegm and fire interact binding pattern, and deficiency of both qi and yin pattern, which can be treated with Jinyu Shugan Powder (金玉疏肝散), Kaiyu Wendan Decoction (开郁温胆汤), Qingxin Huatan Decoction (清心化痰汤), and Baihe Shengmai Beverage (百合生脉饮) in their modifications respectively; moreover, Guanye Jinsitao (Herba Hyperici Perforati) is usually used to rectify qi, relieve phlegm and clear heat. It is also suggested to put focus on the prevention and treatment of qi, phlegm and heat simultaneously, and modify the medicinals flexibly in accordance with the pathogenesis evolution and the abnormal exuberance.

RESUMEN
Objective: To observe the intervening effects of Tongmai Yangxin Pills on miniature pigs with syndrome of deficiency of both qi and yin in later stage of myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury. Methods: A total of 24 miniature pigs were randomly divided into the sham-operated group, the model group (syndrome of deficiency of both qi and yin in myocardial ischemia), the Shengmai Capsules group (0.14 g/kg), and Tongmai Yangxin Pills groups (0.36 g/kg) with six pigs in each group. Except for the sham-operated group, the left anterior descending artery in other groups had been occluded for 30 min by inflation balloons and arterial reperfusion injury was acquires by withdraw balloons. After the operation, the groups were administered with drugs for four weeks. The parameters of noninvasive hemodynamics were measured at the end of study. The tongue color was recorded by digital camera. The tongue and pulse manifestation of the miniature pigs were evaluated according to the symptom-graded scoring method. The size of myocardial ischemia and infarction was analyzed by Evens and TTC staining. Results: Compared with the sham-operated group, the area of myocardial ischemia and necrosis in the model group increased significantly. The noninvasive hemodynamics showed a reduction in cardia coutput (CO) and stroke volume (SV), an augment in systemic vascular resistance (SVR) and left cardiac woke (LCW) of the model group compared with the sham-operated group. Moreover, the scores of tongue and pulse manifestation were also significantly increased in the model group with abnormal color of tongue (P < 0.05, 0.01). Compared with the model group, Shengmai Capsules and Tongmai Yangxin Pills reduced the area of myocardial ischemia and infarction, increased the values of CO and SV, decreased the scores of tongue and pulse manifestation and improved tongue color (P < 0.05, 0.01). In addition, Tongmai Yangxin Pills also reduced SVR (P<0.01). Conclusion: The syndrome of deficiency of both qi and yin in mini pigs could be partly manifested in later stage of myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury. Tongmai Yangxin Pills can improve tongue and pulse signs, protect myocardial tissue, and recover abnormal hemodynamics, which can establish foundation for the further clinical application.
