Advances in pathogenesis of chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome / 中华泌尿外科杂志

Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is a common disease in men. In recent years, it has become younger, which seriously affects the patients＇quality of life. A deep understanding of the pathogenesis of CP/CPPS will help the choice of treatment. Its pathogenesis is not only related to immune factors, but also related to local microcirculation disorders of the prostate, endocrine hormone imbalance, adjacent gut microbes and compression of lumbar intervertebral disc, but it has not been fully elucidated. Therefore, this article aims to review the pathogenesis of CP/CPPS and provide directions for its diagnosis and treatment.

Effect of Erfukang Oral Liquid on Microcirculation Disturbance in Mice / 中国药师

Objective:To observe the effect of Erfukang oral liquid on microcirculation disturbance in mice with acute blood stasis caused by adrenaline. Methods:The mice were randomly divided into the blank group,Naodesheng group(1.35 g·kg-1),Erfukang oral liquid group respectively at high(30 ml·kg-1),medium(15 ml·kg-1) and low(7.5 ml·kg-1) dose,and a microcirculation apparatus was used to observe the number of capillary opening in the normal mice at one hour after the administration. The microcircu-lation disturbance of auricle was induced by the injection of epinephrine into caudal vein. The number of capillary opening and blood flow in 2 min in the mice were observed. Results:Compared with the blank group,Ergukang oral liquid at high,medium and low dose showed effect on the number of opening capillaries without statistical significance (P>0.05);compared with the model group, Erfu-kang oral liquid at high and medium dose could significantly improve the microcirculation induced by epinephrine (P<0.05 or P<0.01),and significantly confront the decreased number of capillary network opening induced by adrenaline(P<0.05). Conclusion:Erfukang oral liquid can improve microcirculation disturbance.
