ABSTRACT

Chai Shao Liu Jun Zi decoction (CSLJZD) is an effective Chinese medicine for the treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG). However, the effect of CSLJZD on the intestinal flora of patients with CAG remains unclear. We used 16S rRNA gene sequencing to investigate the regulatory effects of CSLJZD on intestinal microflora in patients with CAG. Eight patients with CAG were randomly selected as the model group and 8 healthy medical examiners as the control group; the treatment group comprised patients with CAG after CSLJZD treatment. High-throughput sequencing and bioinformatics analysis of the V3V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene of intestinal bacteria obtained from the intestinal isolates of fecal specimens from all participants were performed separately. A rarefaction curve, species accumulation curve, Chao1 index, and ACE index were calculated to assess the alpha diversity. Principal component analysis (PCA), non-metric multi-dimensional scaling, and the unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean were used to examine beta diversity. The LEfSe method was used to identify the differentially expressed bacteria. Differential function analysis was performed using PCA based on KEGG function prediction. Rarefaction and species accumulation curves showed that the sequencing data were reasonable. The Chao1 and ACE indices were significantly increased in patients with CAG compared with those in the healthy group. Following CSLJZD and vitacoenzyme treatment, Chao1 and ACE indices decreased. The PCA, non-metric multi-dimensional scaling, and unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean results showed that the CAG group was distinct from the healthy and treatment groups. The LEfSe results showed that the abundances of the genus Bilophila, family Desulfovibrionaceae, order Desulfovibrionales and genus Faecalibacterium were significantly higher in the healthy group. The abundance of genus Klebsiella, order Deltaproteobacteria, genus Gemmiger, and other genera was significantly higher in the treatment group. Treatment with CSLJZD had a therapeutic effect on the intestinal flora of patients with CAG.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The decrease in estrogen levels during the perimenopausal period can cause women to have various symptoms such as insomnia, emotional anxiety, and even depression. Therefore, whether the green therapy of acupuncture can improve the sleep quality and anxiety of perimenopausal women has attracted more and more attention. The purpose of this systematic evaluation was to assess the efficacy of acupuncture on insomnia and anxiety in perimenopausal women. METHODS: We will search for clinical observational pilot studies or cohort studies of acupuncture for insomnia, anxiety, or depression included in PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, Web of science, China Knowledge Network (CNKI), Wanfang, VIP and China Biomedical Database (CBM), etc. The search period will be from the establishment of the database until November 2021. Two researchers will independently perform literature screening, data extraction, and quality assessment. Finally, data analysis will be performed using Revman and Stata software. RESULTS: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture therapy for the treatment of insomnia, anxiety, and depression in perimenopausal women. CONCLUSION: This study will provide new evidence on the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture for the treatment of insomnia, anxiety, and depression in perimenopausal women, and provide additional options for clinicians and patients to improve insomnia and anxiety.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Insomnia is characterized by high incidence, easy recurrence, and difficulty in curing. Serious insomnia not only seriously affects the body organ function, but psychological patients also cause great damage. Abdominal acupuncture (AA) has fewer side effects and is increasingly used to treat insomnia. This study aimed to systematically review the effectiveness and safety of abdominal acupuncture in the treatment of insomnia. METHODS: Literature on abdominal acupuncture for insomnia in the PubMed, Excerpt Medica Database(Embase), Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure Database, China Biomedical Literature Database, Chinese Scientific Journal Database, and Wan Fang databases were searched from the creation of these databases to October 3, 2021. In addition, the reference lists of studies meeting the inclusion criteria will also be searched to achieve a comprehensive retrieval of the maximum. All randomized controlled trials of AA for treating insomnia were included. Two reviewers will conduct literature screening, data extraction, and quality evaluation respectively. The main outcome was the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, and the secondary outcomes included clinical efficacy and safety. RevMan 5.4.1 software was used for mate analysis. RESULTS: This study aimed to evaluate the current status of AA treatment for insomnia, with the aim of illustrating the effectiveness and safety of abdominal acupuncture. CONCLUSION: This study will provide high-quality evidence to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of AA in treating insomnia.Registration: INPLASY2021100088.

RESULTS: This study aimed to evaluate the current status of UA treatment for insomnia, with the aim of illustrating the effectiveness and safety of UA. CONCLUSION: This study will provides a high-quality evidence to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of UA in treating insomnia. REGISTRATION: PROSPERO CRD42021283036.
