Methods： With the randomized, positive agent parallel controlled design adopted, the 80 subjects enrolled were assigned in the ratio of 3：1 to two groups, the 60 patients in the trial group were treated with PYG and the 20 in the control group treated with Ruyi Dingchuan Pill （如意定喘丸,RDP）, with the therapeutic course consisting of 7 days for both groups. The clinical effects, effects on TCM syndrome and the changes of lung function after treatment were observed. Results： The effect of the treatment on asthma in the trial group： clinically controlled rate was 6.67%, markedly effective rate 51.67%, improved rate 33.33% and ineffective rate 8.33%; and the corresponding rates in the control group were 5.00%, 50.00%, 30.00%, and 15.00% respectively. Comparison between the two groups showed insignificant difference （P〉0.05）. The effect on TCM syndrome in the treated group： clinically controlled rate was 11.67%, markedly effective rate 58.33%, effective rate 21.67% and ineffective rate 8.33%; and those in the control group were 10.00%, 50.00%, 30.00% and 10.00% respectively, also showing insignificant difference between the two groups （P〉0.05）. Lung function test showed that the change on forced expiratory volume in 1 second （FEV1） after treatment in the trial group was of statistical significance （P〈0.05）, but no significant difference was shown in the change of peak expiratory flow （PEE P〉0.05）; while the changes in the control group were just the opposite, showing insignificance in FEV1 （P〉0.05） but significance in PEF （P〈0.05）. Comparison of the therapeutic effect on lung function between the two groups showed no significant difference （P〉0.05）. No adverse reaction was found in either group in the course of treatment. Conclusion： PYG used to treat BS-QDC is effective and safe, it＇s effect is similar to that of RDP.展开更多

Methods： A total of 100 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into the control group and the qi-deficiency syndrome model group, 50 rats in each group. The qi-deficiency syndrome model was established by feeding the animals with hyper-alimentation diet in combination with restricting movement for 10 weeks. Changes of common chemical signal molecules related to NEI and vascular endothelial functions were measured by the end of the experiment. Furthermore, their internal relevance was analyzed by the method of canonical correlation analysis. Results： The vascular endothelial structure and function were obviously injured in the model group. Compared with the control group, the chemical signal molecules, such as 5-hydroxytryptamine （5-HT）, corticosterone （CORT）, triiodothyronine （T3）, tetraiodothyronine （T4）, angiotensin Ⅱ （Ang Ⅱ）, interleukin-1 （IL-1）, and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in peripheral blood of the model group （n=43） were changed significantly （P〈0.05 or P〈0.01）. Canonical correlation analysis showed that vascular endothelial dysfunction was correlated to the changes of these signal molecules in the NEI network. Conclusions： Comfortbased lifestyle induced not only vascular endothelial dysfunction but also an imbalance of the NEI network. Vascular endothelial dysfunction and the imbalanced NEI network interacted with each other, and an imbalance of the NEI network may be the pathophysiologic basis for the genesis and development of vascular endothelial dysfunction, even diseases of the blood vessel.展开更多

Methods: Clinical manifestations and physical signs as well as laboratory examinations have been observed. Results: The markedly effective rate was 68%, and total effective rate 91.67% in the treated group, while in the control group, the markedly effective rate was 30.83%, and the total effective rate 70.84%. According to Ridit analysis, significant difference was shown between the two groups. r-treated group=0.5000, r-control group=0.295+2×0.025 respectively. Conclusion: HDT has no toxic side-effect and can be taken safely and conveniently, it conforms to the demands of WHO on new drug for prevention and cure of myocarditis.展开更多
