Systematic evaluation of the efficacy and safety of intravenous human immunoglobulin combined with cyclophosphamide in the treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the safety and effectiveness of intravenous human immunoglobulin （IVIG） combined with cyclophosphamide in the treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus （SLE）， and to provide an evidence-based basis for clinical medication. METHODS Retrieved from PubMed， Embase， Cochrane Library， CBM， CNKI and Wanfang database， randomized controlled trials （RCTs） about IVIG combined with cyclophosphamide versus cyclophosphamide alone based on glucocorticoids were collected. The quality of the included literature was evaluated with Cochrane 5.1.0 risk of bias assessment tool after literature screening and data extraction， and meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS A total of 13 RCTs were included， involving 842 patients. Meta-analysis showed that compared with cyclophosphamide alone， IVIG combined with cyclophosphamide improved the overall response rate of systemic lupus erythematosus [RR＝1.23， 95%CI（1.15， 1.32）， P＜0.000 01]， lowered the systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index [MD＝－2.05， 95%CI（－2.51， －1.60）， P＜0.000 01]， relieved 24 h proteinuria [MD＝－1.29， 95%CI（－1.57， －1.01）， P＜0.000 01]， reduced the inflammatory factor MCP-4 [MD＝－28.04， 95%CI（－32.72， －23.37， P＜0.000 01）]， IL-4 [MD＝－1.66， 95%CI（－1.96， －1.36）， P＜0.000 01]， and boosted immune complement C3 [SMD＝0.74，95%CI（0.34，1.14）， P＝0.000 3] and complement C4 [SMD＝0.99，95%CI （0.31，1.67）， P＝0.004]； it had similar incidence of adverse drug reactions to cyclophosphamide therapy alone [RR＝0.81， 95%CI （0.57， 1.17）， P＝0.26]. CONCLUSIONS Compared with cyclophosphamide alone， IVIG combined with cyclophosphamide has a positive role in improving the overall response rate of treating SLE， improving clinical symptoms， reducing inflammatory factors， improving immune function， but the results should be interpreted with caution.

Determination of osthole and imperatorin in Compound Shajiziyou Suppository by RP-HPLC / 中成药

AIM:To develop a HPLC method of determining osthole and imperatorin in Compound Shajiziyou Suppository(oil of Semen Hippophae,Fructus Cnidii,Radix Sophorae flavescentis,etc.). METHODS: Phenomnex(luna) C_(18) column was used at(25 ?C).The mobile phase consisted of methanol-water(65(∶)35).The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min.The detection wavelength was set at 310 nm. RESULTS: The linear ranges of osthole and imperatorin were 0.051-0.816 ?g(r=0.999 6) and 0.026-0.416 ?g(r=0.999 8),respectively,The average recoveries were 98,4% with RSD of 1.4% and 97.6% with RSD of 2.0% respectively. CONCLUSION: This method is simple,accurate,reproducible and can be used for the determination of osthole and imperatorin in Compound Shajiziyou Suppository.
