RESUMEN
Objective The change of nitrogen oxide (NO) and gonadotropic releasing hormone (GnRH) in serum and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) in bladder of emasculated female rat after treatment by Niaochangshu capsule was studied to investigate the mechanism of action of Niaochangshu capsule. Methods A total of 48 adult Sprague-Dawley female rats were randomly divided into normal group, model group, control group with Nilestriol and trial group with Niaochangshu capsule. Resect the ovaries to make the estrogen-lack model. After 4 weeks intragastric administration, the serum NO and GnRH and bladder cGMP of all rats were examined. Results The content of serum NO and bladder cGMP were significant lower in the model group than the other three groups (P 0.05). Conclusions In emasculated female rats, the content of serum NO and bladder cGMP can be significantly increased by the Niaochangshu capsule, and it is better than Nilestrio.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the effect of Niaochangshu capsule on urodynamics in bladder filling period of patients with post-menopause urethral syndrome of renal deficiency and blood stasis type.Methods A total of 36 patients with post-menopause urethral syndrome of renal deficiency and blood stasis type were randomly assigned to two groups:the trial group(24 patients were treated with Niaochangshu capsule) and the control group(12 patients were treated with Nilestriol).All patients were treated for 8 weeks.The changes of the urodynamic indexes in bladder filling period(the capacity of the bladder,the compliance of the bladder and the sensitivity of the bladder) were compared between the two groups.Results After treatment,the urodynamic index,including the maximum cystic capacity,the volume at the first desire to void and the cystic compliance were evidently improved in both of the trial group and the control group(P0.05).Conclusion Niaochangshu capsule is effective in treating the patients with post-menopause urethral syndrome of renal deficiency and blood stasis type.It can increase the cystic capacity and compliance,step down the sensitivity of the bladder.Its effect is similar to Nilestriol.
