METHODS： A clinical database of the TCM syndromes and the herbal prescriptions in treatment of 136 MT patients were established. The data were then analyzed using cluster and frequency analysis. RESULTS： According to the cluster analysis, the TCM syndromes in MT patients mainly included two patterns： deficiency of both Qi and Yin and internal accumulation of toxic heat. The commonlyprescribed herbs were Huangqi （Astraglus）, Nuizhenzi （Fructus Ligustri Lucidi）, Lingzhi （Ganoderma Lucidum）, Huaishan （Dioscorea Opposita）, Xiakucao （Prunella Vulgaris）, and Baihuasheshecao （Herba Hedyotidis）. CONCLUSION： Deficiency of Qi and Yin is the pri- mary syndrome of MT, and internal accumulation of toxic heat is the secondary syndrome. The herbs for Qi mainly heat-cl supplementation and Yin houris used, with earance and the assistance of detoxification. hment are herbs for展开更多

The 24-h urine volume was collected on days 7, 14, 21, and 28 after ADR injection, and all rats were killed on day 28. We measured the 24-h levels of urinary protein, serum cholesterol, and se- rum triglycerides, and renal function of all rats by using routine biochemical methods. Pathological changes in the rat kidneys were observed under light and electron microscopes. Heparanase （HPA） mRNA expression levels were measured using re-al-time fluorescence-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Urine levels of HPA in all groups were measured using enzyme-linked immunosor- bent assay. The expression of nephrin was detected by immunohistochemical staining and quantitative- ly analyzed using Motic image analysis 3.2 software. RESULTS： The levels of urinary protein and serum triglycerides and cholesterol in rats with ADR-in- duced nephropathy increased on day 14. The se- rum albumin levels simultaneously decreased. All the changes reached the peak on day 28. Examina- tion under the light microscope showed inflamma- tory cells and slight fibroplasia in the renal intersti- tium in the model group, but fewer inflammatory cells were observed in the intervention groups than those in the model group. Examination under the electron microscope showed extensive fusion of foot processes in ADR rats. HPA mRNA expres- sion was higher in the model group than that in the control group. The HPA mRNA levels in the in- tervention groups, especially in the Chinese herb group, and Chinese herb plus glucocorticoid group were significantly lower than the level in the model group. The HPA expression levels correlated signifi- cantly with the proteinuria level. No significant dif- ference was found in the HPA level in urine be- tween the intervention gro展开更多

Methods In 286 cases of spasmodic CP, 7 kinds of Chinese massage were adopted, named massage on acupoints to promote circulation of the Governor Vessel, massage for strengthening the spleen and benefiting qi, spine-pinching therapy, segmental massage, foot massage, massage for promoting the recovery of muscle strength and massage for promoting ROM of joints. Chinese massage was applied in musical background. Buddha music and five-element music of Chinese medicine （music of the Heart, Liver and Kidney Meridians） were optioned. The treatment was given once or twice a day and 30 days made one course. The angles of femoral adductor and dorsal flexion of foot as well as the score of composite spasticity scale （CSS） were observed before and after treatment so that the therapeutic effect was assessed. Results In 30 days of treatment, 106 cases （37. 1%） were effective markedly, 172 cases （60. 1%） effective and 8 cases （2.8%） failed. The angle of dorsal flexion of foot was （105.64± 12.66）° and （76.58± 9.89）° before and after treatment respectively; the angle of femoral adductor was （119.89±25.47）° and （158.99± 18.66）° before and after treatment respectively; the score of CSS was （12.39±2.56） and （7. 069 ± 2.97） before and after treatment respectivel, there was significant difference before and after treatment （all P〈0.01）. Conclusion Chinese massage for promoting the Governor Vessel, benefiting the kidney and strengthening the spleen combined with music therapy brings the extremely active effect into play on the recovery of sitting, kneeling, standing and walking for children with CP.展开更多

Mitophagy can selectively remove damaged organelles, and has a role in maintaining the homeostasis of myocardial cells and protecting ischemic myocardium. Significance. More and more studies have found that traditional Chinese medicine can improve ischemic damage of cardiomyocytes by regulating mitochondrial function and autophagy. Using mitochondria as the target of traditional Chinese medicine in cardiomyocytes to explore the treatment of ischemic Effective measures for heart disease have become a hotspot for related Chinese medicine workers. Based on the above background, this article outlines the main regulatory pathways of mitochondrial autophagy, and reviews related researches on traditional Chinese medicine of benefiting qi and activating blood and mitophagy in this field.展开更多
