RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Sini-Jia-Huanglian Decoction on chronic heart failure (CHF) with qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome. Methods:A total of 100 patients with CHF and qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome in Handan Mingren hospital from January 2018 to June 2019 who met the inclusion criteria were divided into two groups according to the random number table method, 50 cases in each group. The control group was treated with conventional western medicine therapy, and the treatment group was treated with Sini-Jia-Huanglian Decoction on the basis of the control group. Both groups were treated for 30 days. TCM syndrome score was performed before and after treatment. The level of N-terminal-pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) was detected by radioimmunoassay. The levels of peptide and galectin 3 (Gal-3) were detected by ELISA. The exercise tolerance was measured by 6-minute walking test, the clinical efficacy was tevaluated. Results:The total effective rate of the treatment group was 92.0% (46/50), and the control group was 76.0% (38/50), there was significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=4.762, P=0.029). After treatment, the scores of shortness of breath, palpitation, dyspnea, dizziness, chest pain and total scores in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t values were 4.257, 8.493, 8.211, 4.481, 5.500, 6.977, respectively, all Ps<0.01). After treatment, the levels of NT-proBNP (2 349.61 ± 683.50 ng/L vs. 3 026.27 ± 714.35 ng/L, t=4.840), and peptide (12.16 ± 3.43 ng/L vs. 17.52 ± 3.98 ng/L, t=7.214) and Gal-3 (3.01 ± 0.82 μg/L vs. 3.94 ± 0.93 μg/L, t=5.304) in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01), and the walking distance of 6 minutes (450.66 ± 79.25 m vs. 384.49 ± 70.16 m, t=4.421) was significantly longer than that of the control group ( P<0.01). Conclusions:The Sini-Jia-Huanglian Decoction can improve the heart function and clinical symptoms of CHF patients with qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome, and improve the clinical efficacy.
RESUMO
One hundred and thirty patients with esophageal carcinoma were randomly asigned into two groups:62 cases received thoracoscopic esophagectomy (TE group) and 68 cases received open thoracic esophagectomy group (OE group).All patients underwent lymph nodes dissection along bilateral recurrent laryngeal nerve.Compared with OE group,TE group had a less blood loss during the lymph nodes dissection (P ＜ 0.05) and a lower incidence of pulmonary infection (P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences in the number of dissected lymph nodes,dissection time,incidence of temporary hoarseness,permanent hoarseness and mechanical ventilation for respiratory failure between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).The study suggests that lymph nodes dissection along bilateral recurrent laryngeal nerve can be succesfully completed by thoracoscopic esophagestomy,and it has the advantage of less intraoperative blood loss and lower incidence of pulmonary infection,compared to open thoracic surgery.
