Optimization of a compound prescription for treating liver fibrosis / 南方医科大学学报

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To optimize a compound prescription for treatment of liver fibrosis with an improved therapeutic effect and low toxicity.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>In rat models of liver fibrosis induced by thioacetamide (TAA), the optimized prescription was screened based on a uniform design with 2-factor 5-level table using Uniform Design 3.0 software and tested using liver content of Hyp as the screening index. To verify the efficacy of the optimized prescription, the rat models of liver fibrosis were randomized into normal control group, model group, colchicine group and optimized prescription group, and the changes of hepatic Hyp content, serum HA, ALT, AST, and ALB levels, and the pathology liver fibrosis were observed after corresponding treatments.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The optimized prescription, which contained 70 mg/kg glycyrrhizin and 70 mg/kg matrine, showed a significant therapeutic effect against liver fibrosis in rats (Plt;0.05), and the effect was equivalent to that of colchicine (P>0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Uniform design is a valuable method in prescription optimization. The optimized compound prescription of matrine and glycyrrhizin has a significant effect in inhibiting liver fibrosis.</p>

Application value of 64-row with 128-layer GE VCT in the double lower limb artery spiral(CTA)imaging technology / 中国基层医药

Objective To explore the application value of VCT 64-row with 128-layer spiral extremities arterial imaging techniques and methods in the double lower limb artery.Methods 60 patients on lower limbs MSCTA angiography after Saul,flat on intravenous regiment note contrast agents CT angiography,image the maximum intensity projection(MIP),curved planner reconstruction(CPR),volume rendering(VR)after-treatment technology reconstructed vessels.Results All 60 patients showed the lower limb arterial and main branch.Conclusion 64-row helical VCT angiographic with 128-layer could clearly show that lower limb artery and pathological changes,and become main methods of preoperative evaluation and selection for the lower limb artery disease.
