OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of brain functional recovery decoction (BFRD) on expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) protein in rats with cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury, and to explore the mechanism of action of BFRD.METHODS
Using the suture-occlusion method, a Wistar rat model of focal cerebral ischemia reperfusion was established. The rats were randomly divided into treatment group, model group, and sham operation group. The treatment group was administered BFRD. In situ hybridization was used to detect VEGF mRNA expression. Immunohistochemistry was used to observe expression of Ang-1 protein.RESULTS
VEGF mRNA expression was greater in the model group compared with the sham operation group (P < 0.05); Ang-1 protein expression was more obvious in the treatment group than the model group (P< 0.05).CONCLUSION
BFRD promoted VEGF mRNA and Ang-1 protein expression in the brains of rats with cerebral ischemia, suggesting increased angiogenesis. 相似文献2.

Objective
To evaluate the effects of baicalin in human gastric cancer cells, including apoptosis-inducing effects, and to investigate its underlying mechanisms of action.Methods
Cell proliferation and apoptosis assays were performed to investigate the anti-proliferation effects of baicalin in human gastric cancer BGC-823 and MGC-803 cells. Real time-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting analysis were performed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the anti-tumor properties of baicalin.Results
In BGC-823 and MGC-803 gastric cancer cells treated with 80, 120, and 160 µmol/L baicalin for 48 h, a 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide assay showed that baicalin significantly inhibited cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner, while flow cytometric analysis demonstrated that baicalin could induce apoptosis, also in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, baicalin up-regulated the expression of caspase-3, caspase-9, and B cell lymphoma (Bcl-2)-associated X protein and down-regulated the expression of Bcl-2 at both the mRNA and protein level.Conclusion
Baicalin has potential as a therapeutic agent for gastric cancer by inducing apoptosis in cancer cells. 相似文献3.

Objective
To examine the influence of cupping on the quality of life of healthy people who referred to traditional Persian medicine clinics in Tehran.Methods
All participants were examined by Traditional Persian Medicine specialists and their temperaments were determined. The area between the shoulders was cleaned, and cupping was performed with a disposable cupping glass for a few minutes. The questionnaire used in this project was the Persian version of the SF-36 questionnaire which assesses people's understanding of their health status. Before cupping and then one month after cupping, all participants were called and the questionnaires were completed again. Finally, all given data was analyzed.Results
From a total of 290 questionnaires completed in the first phase of the project, 112 patients were excluded. Ultimately, the data of 178 participants was analyzed. After one month, the quality of life score of 155 participants (88%) increased, remained unchanged for 21 participants (11.7%), and decreased for 2 participants (1.1%). Asked about possible complications from cupping, 160 participants reported no side effects (89.9%).Conclusion
Our findings suggest that cupping therapy can improve the scores of quality of life in the participants in Tehran. 相似文献8.
Objective
To evaluate the influence of clinical pathways in the hospitals using the Traditional Chinese Medicine in treatment of stroke in terms of postoperative complications, length of stay (LOS), costs incurred during hospitalization, compared with standard medical care.Methods
Medline, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) platforms, Wanfang databases and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched. The search was performed up to August 2014. Each study was assessed independently by two reviewers. The assessment of methodological quality of the included studies was based on the Methodological index for non-randomized studies standard. Meta-analyses were performed using RevMan software, version 5.0.Results
Six studies met the study inclusion criteria and were included in the Meta-analysis for a total sample of 710 patients. The aggregate overall results showed that shorter length of stay in the clinical pathway group was observed during hospital stay was associated with the use of the clinical pathways. No significant differences were found in other effects.Conclusion
Regardless the possible limitations, our findings show that clinical pathways can significantly reduce LOS. Although there is no clear evidence that clinical pathways can reduce hospital costs, but the cost of hospitalization path group for each included study were lower than the control group. 相似文献9.

OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of Yishengukang decoction on the expression of the metabolic bone markers, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP), carboxyterminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PICP), and carboxyterminal cross-linked telepeptide of type I collagen (ICTP), in cancer patients with bone metastasis.METHODS
Patients (n = 180) were divided into three groups: (a) bone metastasis patients treated with Yishengukang and pamidronate disodium injection (treatment group, n = 60); (b) bone metastasis patients treated with pamidronate disodium injection alone (control group, n = 60); (c) cancer patients without metastatic bone lesion (non-bone metastasis group, n = 60). Serum levels of the metabolic markers BAP, PICP, and ICTP were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay pre- and post-therapy.RESULTS
A significant decrease in serum BAP level was observed in the treatment group compared with the control group. However there were no significant differences in serum levels of PICP and ICTP before or after treatment compared with the control group.CONCLUSION
Yishengukang decoction combined with pamidronate disodium injection reduced serum BAP level to a greater extent that pamidronate disodium injection alone. Furthermore, the combined therapy was more beneficial in regulating imbalanced bone metabolism after bone metastasis, and may represent the molecular mechanism underpinning the effects of Yishengukang decoction. 相似文献10.

Objective
To observe the effect of transcutaneous electroacupuncture (TEA) at Neiguan (PC 6) on refractory vomiting in critically ill patients in intensive care (ICU) setting.Methods
Ten patients admitted in ICU and presenting vomiting refractory to one or more antiemetic drugs were prospectively included in the study. TEA was applied at acupoint of Neiguan (PC 6) during 30 min with a neuromuscular transmission monitor (single-twitch stimulation with 1 Hz at a constant current of 10 mA). Nausea and Vomiting were evaluated at the following intervals: immediately after 30 min of TEA at Neiguan (PC 6), 30 min-6h and 6–24 h. The presence of nausea and/or vomiting throughout the observational period was defined as the primary end point.Results
The presence of nausea or vomiting throughout the observational period was 10% at the end of TEA, 40% between 30 min and 6 h, and 50% between 30 min and 24 h (P < 0.001, P = 0.01 and P = 0.03 vs pre-TEA, respectively). There were no complications or side effects related to TEA.Conclusion
TEA at Neiguan (PC 6) seems effective in reducing refractory vomiting in the patients in ICU setting, even if larger trials are needed to define optimal modalities. 相似文献12.

Objective
To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Chinese medicine formula HB01 on exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD) patients who received HB01 for 6 months by analyzing relative indexes.Methods
From July 2006 to August 2015, 139 eligible exudative AMD patients (183 eyes) were enrolled into this study and received aqueous extract from herbs of HB01 by oral twice a day (100 mL for once) for 6 months. The best corrected visual acuity, center macular thickness (CMT), hemorrhage area, fluorescein leakage area as the main outcomes were estimated and compared before and after treatment.Results
After 3 and 6 months of treatment, visual acuity obtained a greater improvement (P < 0.01). After 1, 3 and 6 months of treatment, CMT obviously decreased (P < 0.05). After 3 and 6 months of treatment, the hemorrhage area and fluorescein leakage area also significantly narrowed (P < 0.01). During treatment, no significant adverse events relating to HB01 treatment were elucidated.Conclusion
On the basis of these results, HB01 could improve visual acuity, and reduce hemorrhage and fluorescein leakage of patients with exudative AMD, which may be an effective alternative and supportive treatment for exudative AMD. 相似文献13.
Objective
To evaluate the effects of feet reflexology versus segmental massage in reducing pain and its intensity, frequency and duration of the attacks in females suffering from migraine.Methods
Forty eight females aged 33–58, suffering from migraine for 2 to 10 years were included in this study from November 2013 to November 2015. The study protocol was carried out in Department of Chronic Diseases at the Regional Hospital in Zywiec. In the reflexology group (RG) the patients received a series of 10 treatments 2 times per week; in the segmental massage group (SMG) the patients received a series of 15 treatments 3 times per week. Pain during migraine attacks was assessed using the visual analog scale (VAS), and headache features such as intensity (IA), frequency (FA) and duration (DA) of attacks were assessed before the treatment, just after the treatment, 3 months after the treatment.Results
All variables (VAS, IA, FA and DA) decreased within RG and SMG 3 months after the treatment in compare with the baseline values, and the differences were statistically significant. The differences between groups were also statistically significant.Conclusion
Feet reflexology and segmental massage provide a safe alternative for the pharmacological treatment of migraine. The patients with migraine obtain significant health benefits with feet reflexology. 相似文献14.
Objective
To evaluate the effects of tetrandrine plus arsenic trioxide on HCC1937 cells, a triple negative breast cancer cell line, and to explore possible mechanisms.Methods
The 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide method was used to compare the antiproliferative effects of tetrandrine, arsenic trioxide alone and tetrandrine plus arsenic trioxide on HCC1937 cells. The median-effect principle (Chou-Talalay combination index method) was used to examine the interaction between the two drugs. Flow cytometry was used to evaluate effects of treatment with tetrandrine, arsenic trioxide or the combination of both on HCC1937 cell apoptosis. Real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blotting were performed to evaluate changes in apoptosis-related gene expression and protein levels.Results
Tetrandrine and arsenic trioxide each inhibited HCC1937 cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. The cell inhibition rate of HCC1937 cells treated with a combination of tetrandrine and arsenic trioxide was significantly higher than with either compound alone. The two drugs produced a synergistic effect when the inhibition rate was 20%-40%. Flow cytometry results showed that treatment with the two drugs increased the proportion of apoptotic cells. In the combination treated group, caspase-3 activation and PARP cleavage were significantly higher than in the other groups. Moreover, Bcl-2 and survivin expression were decreased, whereas that of both Bid and Bax was increased.Conclusion
These findings demonstrated that tetrandrine plus arsenic trioxide had synergistic efficacy on induction of apoptosis in HCC1937 cells. 相似文献15.
Objective
To evaluate the efficacy of Xielikang capsules (XLKC) in the treatment of HIV-related diarrhea (HRD) and its effect on the plasma concentration of interleukin-17 (IL-17).Methods
This was a randomized, open-label, positively-controlled clinical trial. Sixty-seven HRD patients were randomly assigned to two groups: one group was treated with XLKC (n = 35), the other with diosmectite (Smecta®, n = 32). All patients were treated for 4 weeks. The HRD symptom scores were evaluated in each patient based on the frequency of diarrhea, and the quality and shape of the stool according to the Chinese Medicine Clinical Treatment of AIDS Program. The plasma concentration of IL-17 before and after treatment was measured with ELISA.Results
Compared with the Smecta® group, the XLKC group had a significantly reduced frequency of diarrhea and HRD symptom score regarding the quality and shape of stools (P < 0.05). The IL-17 concentration in the peripheral blood of the XLKC group was significantly increased after treatment, while the IL-17 concentration in the Smecta® group significantly decreased after treatment.Conclusion
XLKC improves the symptoms of patients with HRD, and increases the plasma concentration of IL-17. 相似文献16.
Objective
To systematically review treatments of exfoliative cheilitis based on symptom patterns in terms of Traditional Chinese Medicine.Methods
PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and Wanfang data were screened for case reports, case series or clinical trials that were published in English or Chinese from January, 1973 to September, 2015. The keyword of “exfoliative cheilitis or scaling cheilitis or factitious cheilitis” was used. Effectiveness or ineffectiveness was investigated as outcome for Meta analysis, which is based on effective index in each study. Response to treatment was described for case reports or case series.Results
From 38 screened studies, 17 were randomized controlled trials (RCTs), 5 were single-arm trials, and 16 were case reports or case series. Three RCTs were eligible for Meta analysis and all of them compared managements between Traditional Chinese Medicine and corticosteroids for exfoliative cheilitis, which involved 223 participants. Interestingly, data of Meta analysis showed similar effect of Traditional Chinese Medicine and corticosteroids for patients with exfoliative cheilitis [relative risk ratio: 1.10; 95% CI (1.00-1.21), P = 0.06].Conclusion
Traditional Chinese Medicine might be a substitute for corticosteroids on exfoliative cheilitis. However, the evidence and recommendation of exfoliative cheilitis managements need to be taken with caution because of the low quality of evidence in the studies obtained. 相似文献17.

Objective
To assess skin temperature response to menstruation at acupuncture points in primary dysmenorrhea (PD) patients and healthy volunteers so as to explore acupuncture point specificity in reflecting diseases in the light of skin temperature.Methods
Fifty-two PD patients and 49 healthy volunteers were recruited. Skin temperature measurements were performed with a skin temperature assessment device at 10 points. Absolute difference between skin temperature of the same point on the left and right side is used as main outcome measure.Results
On the first day of menstruation, when menstrual pain attacking in PD patients, a significant increase in skin temperature difference was detected at Taixi (KI 3) compared with the healthy group (P < 0.01). A significant reduction in skin temperature difference was detected at Taixi (KI 3) in the first day of menstruation compared with those values in the third day after menstruation (P < 0.01) in the healthy group. On the third day after menstruation, a significant reduction in skin temperature difference was found at Zhongdu (LR 6) in PD group compared with the healthy group (P < 0.05). No significant differences of skin temperature were detected at other points (P > 0.05).Conclusion
The skin temperature difference at menstruation-relevant points in PD patients did not all change significantly more than those in women without PD. Significant difference was only found in Taixi (KI 3), the Yuan-source point of Kidney meridian. 相似文献18.

Objective
To investigate the neural differentiation capacity of water extraction of velvet antler.Methods
Velvet antler (Cervus Nippon Temminck) polypeptide (VAP) was used to differentiate neural stem cells (NSCs) towards neurons in the study. Firstly, we obtain the polypeptides of VAP by water extraction. Secondly, we observed the morphology, assayed the factors in the media by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and detected the special neural molecules by immunofluorescence staining. NSCs were cultured on the cell climbing film. After neuronal differentiation, differentiated NSCs were mounted for immunocytochemistry with immunofluorescence technique.Results
The differentiating cells look like neuron, some special factors, such as Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor, nerve growth factor, in the media can be detected while differentiated neuron -like cells can express the special neural molecules.Conclusion
Differentiation of NSCs towards neurons can be induced by velvet antler polypeptide. 相似文献19.

Objective
To evaluate the effect of decoction prepared with Yang-activating and stasis-eliminating medicinals from Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) on the intestinal mucosal permeability in rats with ulcerative colitis induced by dextran sulfate sodium (DSS).Methods
Totally 55 male Wistar rats (body weight of 170–190 g) were randomly divided into the blank group (n = 10) and the model duplication group (n = 45). The blank group was not intervened, while the other was modeled with 5% dextran sulfate sodium by gavaging in a dosage of 4 mL per day to induce ulcerative colitis, a total of 7 days. Then, the model rats were divided into model blank group, mesalazine group and TCM group, and each group was consisted of 15 rats. They were given retention enema 10 min with normal saline, mesalazine enema (0.036 g/mL), and Yang-activating and stasis-eliminating decoction [0.54 g/mL of a decoction boiled by Puhuang (Pollen Typhae), Xiebai (Bulbus Allii Macrostemonis) and Wulingzhi (Faeces Trogopteri)] for 10 days respectively. Afterwards, all of the rats were evaluated by disease activity index (DAI), histological changes of distal colon, expression of occludin protein and ultrastructure of intestinal epithelial cells. Furthermore, ratio of lactulose to mannitol (L/M) discharged in urine was evaluated.Results
Comparing the results between TCM and model control groups, scores of DAI and histological lesions decreased significantly (P = 0.000 < 0.01), ultrastructures of intestinal epithelial cells and tight junctions were more complete. The expression of occludin protein (P = 0.001 < 0.01) increased while the L/M value decreased significantly (P = 0.000 < 0.01) in TCM group. There was no statistical difference between the TCM and mesalazine groups in results of each item (P > 0.05).Conclusion
The decoction prepared with Yang-activating and stasis-eliminating TCM medicianls can restore intestinal mucosal epithelial cells and tight junctions the model rats with ulcerative colitis; it can reduce histological lesions and protect the permeability of intestinal mucosa barrier in the rats as well. 相似文献20.
