益肠通秘汤联合中药热奄包治疗老年脾肾阳虚型慢性便秘效果观察

目的探讨益肠通秘汤联合中药热奄包治疗老年脾肾阳虚型慢性便秘的临床疗效。方法选取2016年4月至2017年1月湖北省中医院肛肠科收治的60例老年脾肾阳虚型慢性便秘患者作为研究对象,并按照随机数表法随机分为试验组(30例)与对照组(30例),其中试验组患者在口服益肠通秘汤的同时采用中药热奄包热敷治疗,对照组患者单纯口服乳果糖口服溶液治疗,对比观察两组患者的腹胀、排便时间、排便顺畅度、便后不尽感等变化情况以及临床疗效与复发情况。结果治疗14 d后,两组患者腹胀、排便时间、排便顺畅度及便后不尽感较治疗前均明显改善,且尤以试验组改善最为显著,两组患者腹胀、排便时间、排便顺畅度及便后不尽感评分分别与治疗前对比,P均0.05,差异具有统计学意义;治疗14 d后,两组患者腹胀及便后不尽感评分对比,P均0.05,差异具有统计学意义;治疗14 d后,两组患者排便时间及排便顺畅度评分对比,P均0.05,差异无统计学意义;治疗14 d后,试验组患者中痊愈17例、显效6例、有效4例、无效3例、总有效率为90. 00%,对照组患者中痊愈9例、显效8例、有效3例、无效10例、总有效率为66.67%,两组对比,P0.05,差异具有统计学意义;治疗后6个月随访,试验组17例痊愈患者中复发4例,对照组9例痊愈患者中复发6例。结论益肠通秘汤联合中药热奄包治疗老年脾肾阳虚型慢性便秘,可有效缓解患者腹胀不适、排便时间延长、排便费力及便后不尽感等临床症状,疗效显著,且复发率较低,值得临床推广应用。     

辨体-辨病-辨证诊疗模式在慢性病防治中的应用策略

依据中国防治慢性病中长期规划（2017-2025年），按照国医大师王琦教授倡导的"辨体-辨病-辨证诊疗模式"，提出慢性病"3+4+3"防治路向：面向三类人群（一般、高危、患病人群），朝向四种状态（无病、病前、病中、病后状态），指向三辨模式（辨体-辨病-辨证诊疗模式）。进而探讨其应用策略：对于一般人群无病状态——辨体养生，固本防病；对于高危人群病前状态——辨体干预，治本救萌；针对患病人群病中状态——"三辨"施治，标本兼顾；针对患病人群病后状态——辨体调理，固本防复。文中结合案例加以佐证，具有临床指导价值。     

中西医结合治疗帕金森病非运动症状的系统评价与Meta分析

[目的]系统评价中西医结合治疗帕金森病非运动症状的临床疗效与安全性。[方法]全面检索相关中英文数据库,搜集自建库至2018年7月所有中药联合西医基础治疗与西医基础治疗(和中药安慰剂)的临床随机对照试验,根据纳入标准、排除标准,选择符合标准的相关文献并提取资料,依据Cochrane Handbook对纳入的文献进行质量评价,并采用RevMan5.3软件进行Meta分析。[结果]最终纳入24篇RCT,共计1 836例患者,分别采用主要指标及次要指标进行评价。结果显示:NMSS量表[MD=-6.19,95%CI=(-7.68,-4.69),Chi2=0.83,DF=3,n=302];NMSQuest量表[MD=-2.17,95%CI=(-2.67,-1.68),n=601]UPDRS I量表,未进行Meta分析[Chi2=75.91,DF=10,n=882],UPDRS II量表[MD=-2.71,95%CI=(-3.34,-2.08),n=1164];PDQ-39量表[MD=-7.81,95%CI=(-9.97,-5.64),n=407]。[结论]中西医结合治疗帕金森病非运动症状有效,且优于单纯西医基础治疗。     

数据挖掘法探讨周珉教授治疗原发性肝癌用药规律及经验总结

[目的]数据挖掘法分析周珉教授治疗原发性肝癌的中医用药规律，探讨相关病机并进行经验总结。[方法]收集2016年2月—2018年5月周珉教授门诊期间治疗原发性肝癌的方剂，运用“中医传承辅助系统（V2.50）”进行数据挖掘，并结合周珉教授临床经验，进行原发性肝癌病机探讨及用药规律分析。[结果]共收集治疗原发性肝癌方剂176首，涉及中药235种，列出方剂中的高频药物及组合规律。[结论]总结原发性肝癌以“湿热痰毒、气阴两伤”为基础病机，“清热化湿、健脾养阴”治则贯穿原发性肝癌治疗始末，同时，根据疾病不同发展阶段及治疗措施，权衡“扶正”与“祛邪”的主次分配，斟酌应用“攻毒散结”“行气化瘀”等治法，以达到改善患者生活质量、延缓疾病进展的目的。     

Emergency department patient payer status after implementation of the Affordable Care Act: A nationwide analysis using NHAMCS data

ObjectiveTo evaluate changes in insurance status among emergency department (ED) patients presenting in the two years immediately before and after full implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA).MethodsWe evaluated National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey (NHAMCS) Emergency Department public use data for 2012–2015, categorizing patients as having any insurance (private; Medicare; Medicaid; workers' compensation) or no insurance. We compared the pre- and post-ACA frequency of insurance coverage—overall and within the older (≥65), working-age (18–64) and pediatric (<18) subpopulations—using unadjusted odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals. We also conducted a difference-in-differences analysis comparing the change in insurance coverage among working-age patients with that observed for older Medicare-eligible patients, while controlling for sex, race and underlying temporal trends.ResultsOverall, the proportion of ED patients with any insurance did not significantly change from 2012 to 2013 to 2014–2015 (74.2% vs 77.7%) but the proportion of working-age adult patients with at least one form of insurance increased significantly, from 66.0% to 71.8% (OR 1.31, CI: 1.13–1.52). The difference-in-differences analysis confirmed the change in insurance coverage among working-age adults was greater than that seen in the reference population of Medicare-eligible adults (AOR 1.70, CI: 1.29–2.23). The increase was almost entirely attributable to increased Medicaid coverage.ConclusionIn the first two years following full implementation of the ACA, there was a significant increase in the proportion of working-age adult ED patients who had at least one form of health insurance. The increase appeared primarily associated with expansion of Medicaid.     

An Introduction to the Residency Application Process

We are going to present in the Medical Student Forum section of the Journal of Emergency Medicine several article series covering the key topics that medical students interested in emergency medicine will find helpful. This article introduces the topics that will be tackled in the first compilation of articles dealing with the residency application process.     

经典名方中“术”的本草考证

中药经典名方的研发是促进中医药继承创新和提高临床服务水平的重要途径,经典名方中药材基原的确定对其研发尤为重要,是保证质量、药效及安全性的源头。"术"入药历史悠久,《神农本草经》中列为上品,为经典名方中常用中药。但南北朝以前"苍术""白术"均可作为"术"入药,未做明确区分,致使本草考证是含"苍术""白术"经典名方研发中的难题。结合历代本草,从植株形态、产地、性味、功效等方面梳理"术"的历史变迁,以期为"术"的本草考证以及经典名方的研发提供参考借鉴。     

辛味中药在治疗消渴证中的应用价值及中药五味理论现代研究的思考

辛味是中药五味学说中的重要性味之一,通常具有“发散”“行气”和“行血”的作用,且辛味中药在传统医学临床应用中占有较大比例。结合中药辛味的功效内涵及传统中医理论对消渴证的认识,阐述辛味中药与消渴证治疗之间的内在联系,总结辛味中药对“消渴三消”的治疗意义与价值。并在此基础上,对中药五味理论的现代研究趋势和发展方向进行思考,为同行研究提供参考。
