RESUMO
Hypertriglyceridemia （HTG） is the second leading cause of acute pancreatitis in China and can be caused by primary factors， namely gene mutations， which may lead to recurrent hypertriglyceridemic acute pancreatitis （HTG-AP） and difficulties in effective control of triglyceride. This article reports an adult Chinese male patient who experienced eight attacks of HTG-AP and was found to carry a de novo heterozygous mutation， p.K327N， of the GPD1 gene， which may cause the persistent high level of triglyceride and recurrent attacks of HTG-AP.
RESUMO
Objective: To compare the anti-inflammatory effect of Fraxini Cortex pieces between integrated production process and traditional processing method. Methods: The model of rat paw swelling induced by carrageenan was used to study the anti-inflammatory and swelling reliving effects of water extracts of Cortex Fraxini with different methods. The main chemical components of the 2 kinds of Cortex Fraxini herbal pieces were determined by high performance liquid phase. Results: Compared with the blank group, the water extracts of the 2 kinds of Cortex Fraxini could reduce the swelling of the rats and improve the various indicators of inflammation. However, the anti-inflammatory and swelling reliving effects of the integrated processing of Cortex Fraxini were more significant. The contents of 4 main active ingredients of esculine, fraxin, aesculetin and fraxetin in the integrated processing of Cortex Fraxini were higher than that of the traditionally processed Cortex Fraxini. The total amount of 4 kinds of coumarins in the integrated Cortex Fraxini was about 1.5 times that of the traditionally processed water extract of Cortex Fraxini. Conclusion: The integrated processing and traditional processing of Cortex Fraxini have similar effects on anti-inflammatory effects, and have the superiority of reducing the loss of active ingredients, which is worthy of popularization and application.
