Effects of the Clearing the Lung and Dissipating Phlegm Method in the Treatment of Acute Exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the clearing the lung and dissipating phlegm method in the treatment of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) and to provide evidence for the treatment of the disease. Materials and Methods: Literature was searched from the United States National Library of Medicine(PubMed), Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Database(Wanfang), and the Full?Text Database of Chinese Scientific and Technical Periodicals(VIP).A comprehensive collection was made of randomized controlled trials(RCTs) before June 2018, in which the treatment groups used either the clearing the lung and dissipating phlegm formulas only or combined it with routine Western medicine therapy, and the control group adopted routine Western medicine therapy only for the acute exacerbation of COPD. The Cochrane risk of bias method was used to evaluate the quality of the literature. The data were analyzed and retrieved independently by two reviewers before meta?analysis was carried out with RevMan 5.3 software to evaluate the primary outcome measures, including the total clinical effective rate, and the secondary outcome measures such as the pulmonary function(forced vital capacity [FVC], forced expiratory volume in the 1 s [FEV1], percentage of FEV1 [FEV1%], and FEV1/FVC)and blood gases(PaO_2 and PaCo_2). Results: A total of 13 RCTs involving 990 patients(496 in the treatment group and 494 in the control group)were included in this study. Meta?analysis revealed significant difference in the efficacy of the group that adopted solely the routine Western medicine method and the group that combined the Western medicine with the clearing the lung and dissipating phlegm method. Outcome measures including the pulmonary function(FVC, FEV1, FEV1%, and FEV1/FVC) and the blood gases(PaO_2 and PaCo_2) were significantly improved as compared to the control group(P 0.00001). However, adverse effects in the treatment group using combined traditional Chinese medicine were not reported due to the short observation time of the study. Conclusion: The clearing the lung and dissipating phlegm method can improve the efficacy in the treatment of acute exacerbation of COPD, the outcome measures of the pulmonary function and the blood gases,as well as the life quality of the patients. However, due to the fact that the existing studies are generally of poor quality in which randomization and its implementation were not properly carried out, more high?quality RCTs are necessary to confirm the findings of this study.     

李延应用泽泻汤合温胆汤治疗舒张压高的临床经验

随着社会的发展,人类生活方式的改变,高血压病越来越高发,具有低龄化趋势,代谢综合征常伴随发生,此种情况下的高血压往往是以舒张压升高为主,临床表现常与“亚健康”状态混淆,未能引起患者甚至部分医生的重视,然而事实上越来越多的科学研究证实舒张压高之危害十分明显,不容忽视。尽管现代医学对舒张压高的病因及病理机制有明确的阐述,但是暂时没有特效的药物。李延教授在治疗高血压病方面有着丰富的临床经验,临床中运用泽泻汤合温胆汤加减治疗舒张压高之眩晕,切中病机,加减灵活,屡有良效。文中从中医角度阐述舒张压高的病因病机,介绍李师辨病辨证思路,组方用药特点,附三则典型验案,另加个人心得体会,以期为舒张压高的有效治疗提供思路。

50例冠心病某些生化基础观测的临床诊断意义

对５０例冠心病患者进行某些生化基础观测，发现冠心病肾阴虚与糖耐量减低有关，肾阳虚患者尿１７－羟低於正常；而冠心病标证有其生化基础，与甘油三酯增高有密切相关。     

冠心病中医辨证与载脂蛋白关系的初步研究

对９６例各种类型冠心病患者进行中医辨证分型，检测其血清载脂蛋白ＡⅠ及Ｂ１００（ａｐｏＡⅠ及ａｐｏＢ１００），并设立对照组。结果显示各证型冠心病患者的ａｐｏＡⅠ，ａｐｏＢ１００及ａｐｏＢ１／ａｐｏＡⅠ均有不同程度的改变。在标实证中以痰浊型改变最为明显，其ａｐｏＡⅠ显著降低，ａｐｏＢ１００及ａｐｏＢ１００／ａｐｏＡⅠ显著升高。在本虚证型中以肾虚型改变最为明显、其ａｐｏＡⅠ显著降低。ａｐｏＢ１００／ａｐｏＡⅠ显著升高。这种各证型间的差异无疑对冠心病的中医辨证客观化有一定意义，值得进一步验证和探讨。     

中西医结合治疗肺心病心律失常40例疗效观察

为提高肺心病心律失常的临床疗效,采用中药清肺化痰活血剂配合抗菌素及氧疗法对40例肺心病并发心律失常患者进行了治疗观察,同时与单纯使用抗菌素及氧疗法治疗的40例患者进行对照。临床以心电图改善情况为观察指标,结果两组有效率分别为87.5％和67.5％。Ridit分析结果表明,治疗组疗效明显优于对照组,经显著性检验,两组差异显著(P<0.05)。

目的 观察清咳平喘颗粒治疗痰热郁肺型咳嗽的临床有效性。方法 选取2020年1月—2021年6月上海中医药大学附属龙华医院呼吸科门诊就诊的痰热郁肺型咳嗽患者100例,按随机数字表法分为对照组和治疗组各50例,对照组为西医常规治疗,治疗组在西医常规治疗基础上联合清咳平喘颗粒治疗。两组均连续治疗2周。观察两组患者治疗前后的中医证候、咳嗽症状、气道反应（血清免疫球蛋白E、外周血嗜酸性粒细胞）、肺功能［最大呼气流量、第1秒用力呼气容积（forced expiratory volume for 1 second,FEV1）与用力肺活量（forced vital capacity,FVC）的比值］、生活质量及不良反应情况。结果 治疗后,对照组和治疗组的总有效率分别是90%、94%,两组比较差异无统计学意义（P>0.05）。治疗后,两组患者中医证候评分、日间及夜间咳嗽积分较治疗前降低,且治疗组明显低于对照组（P<0.05）。治疗后,两组血清免疫球蛋白E、外周血嗜酸性粒细胞较治疗前明显下降,且治疗组气道反应指标改善好于对照组（P<0.05）。治疗后,两组最大呼气流量、FEV1/FVC较治疗前明显上升（P<0.05）,但两组比较差异无统计学意义（P>0.05）。随访时两组患者的生活质量评分较治疗前均显著升高,治疗组评分改善优于对照组,两组比较差异具有统计学意义（P<0.05）。治疗期间两组均未发生不良反应。结论 清咳平喘颗粒在治疗痰热郁肺型咳嗽安全性良好,有助于改善咳嗽症状,改善肺通气,提高患者生活质量。     

化痰祛瘀法治疗肝豆状核变性研究进展

肝豆状核变性(WD)在西医学上是铜代谢障碍导致全身多器官损害等为主要临床特征的常染色体隐性单基因遗传疾病,病变影响肝、脑、肾、角膜等重要脏器。中医通过对WD患者临床症状及病理改变的认识,认为WD的基本病理因素为痰浊、瘀血,二者相互作用而发病,以痰瘀互结为主要的病机,贯穿疾病发展始终,故而运用化痰祛瘀法治疗WD在临床中常见。众多研究表明运用中药汤剂、中医外治法化痰祛瘀治疗可以有效缓解WD患者临床症状,发挥排铜优势、改善肝纤维化、改善脑流动力学、抑制炎症和抗氧化应激作用,进而延缓疾病进程,控制疾病发展。现结合新近研究成果,对化痰祛瘀法在WD的临床应用予以综述,以期为临床治疗WD提供中西医结合治疗有效的方案及依据。
