平胃散对湿阻中焦模型大鼠血浆抗利尿激素及红细胞内钠、钾浓度的影响

目的:探索湿阻中焦证的病理机制,并探讨平胃散对湿阻中焦证的作用机理。方法:选用湿阻中焦证大鼠模型,给予平胃散配伍利水药,观测各组大鼠血浆抗利尿激素(ADH)的浓度及红细胞内电解质Na~+、K~+浓度。结果:湿阻造模组大鼠与正常组相比ADH显著升高(P<0.01);细胞内的Na~+增高,K~+显著降低(P<0.05)。给予平胃散后,高、中、低剂量组及加泽泻组大鼠ADH基本恢复正常;细胞内的Na~+下降至接近于正常,K~+尤明显变化;不造模给药组与正常组比较ADH显著升高(P<0.05),Na~+、K~+明显下降(P均<0.01)。结论:(1)血浆ADH浓度升高、细胞内Na~+增多、K~+降低在湿阻中焦证形成中起重要作用。(2)平胃散治疗湿阻中焦证的作用机理与调节ADH和细胞内Na~+、K~+浓度有关,且可能存在双向调节机制。     

Evaluation of a rapid stoolantigen test for the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection in Chinese patients

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the accuracy of a rapid assay that wasdeveloped to detect Helicobacter pylori antigen in the stool,using the principle of immunochromatography, in the Chinese population. METHODS: Eligible patients without prior treatment of H.pylori were recruited. An in‐house rapid urease test (RUT) andhistology were used as the gold standard. The results of the rapidstool antigen test were compared with the gold standard. RESULTS: Valid rapid stool antigen test results for interpretationwere obtained from 94 consecutive patients (mean age: 52.5, range:22?82 years). Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictivevalue, negative predictive value and accuracy were, respectively, 77.5%,87.0%, 81.6%, 83.9% and 83.0%.The test was easy to perform and results were available within 15 min. CONCLUSION: The rapid stool antigen test using immunochromatography accuratelydiagnoses H. pylori infection in Chinese patients.
