RESUMO
Objective:To analyze the distribution of TCM syndrome elements and syndromes in patients with hypertension with insomnia (HWI) in the real world.Methods:A cross-sectional study and retrospectively enrolled. The positive symptoms and TCM syndrome type entries of 359 patients with HWI who were collected from Henan Integrated Medicine Hospital,Henan Provincial People's Hospital,the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Chinese Medicine from December 2020 to August 2022 were retrospectively studied. Based on factor analysis dimension reduction and systematic cluster analysis, the TCM syndrome elements and potential syndrome types of patients were summarized. The Latern 5.0 software was used to establish a latent structure model and comprehensive clustering based on the mountain climbing method (LTM-EAST) algorithm, and analyze and judge the common syndrome types, providing a basis for proposing the clinical common syndrome types of this disease.Results:Factor analysis extracted 14 common factors, and the cumulative contribution rate was 63.254%. Among the 36 symptom variables with frequency ≥ 70, more than half of the patients with hypertension and insomnia were upset, irritable, less sleepy, dreamy, dizzy, palpitations, stuffy chest, dry mouth, easy to wake up, and tired. The tongue color was mainly light red tongue and red tongue. The tongue is mainly thin and greasy. The first three pulse conditions are string pulse, number pulse and slippery pulse. The disease location and syndrome elements of hypertension with insomnia were mainly liver (52.09%), heart (33.43%), spleen (26.46%) and kidney (23.68%); The disease syndrome elements are mainly phlegm dampness (34.54%), yin deficiency (29.25%), heat (fire) (25.35%), and qi stagnation (25.07%). Ten syndrome types are obtained by frequency statistics, nine syndrome types are obtained by factor clustering, and seven syndrome types are inferred by implicit structure clustering. Among the syndrome types inferred by the above three methods, there are seven syndrome types that recur at least twice, which can be identified as the common syndrome type of hypertension with insomnia.Conclusions:The common clinical symptoms of HWI are upset and irritable, less sleep, more dreams, dizziness, palpitations, stuffy chest, dry mouth, easy to wake up, mental fatigue and body tiredness. The disease location and syndrome elements are mainly in liver, heart, spleen and kidney. The disease mainly involves phlegm dampness, yin deficiency, heat and qi stagnation. The common clinical syndrome types are liver depression transforming fire type, yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity type, phlegm dampness intrinsic type, yin deficiency and internal heat type, heart and gallbladder qi deficiency type, heart and spleen deficiency type, and heart kidney disjunction type.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE:To optimize the processing technology of rehmanniae radix praeparata. METHODS:Using transfer rates of catalpol,rehmaionoside D,acteoside,isoacteoside,polysaccharide as indexes for comprehensive score,heating tempera-ture(pressure),heating time and heating times as investigating factors,L9(34)orthogonal test was used to optimize the processing technology of rehmanniae radix praeparata,and verification test was conducted. RESULTS:The optimal processing technology of rehmanniae radix praeparata was as follow as heating temperature of 125 ℃,pressure of 150 kPa for twice,2 h every time. The comprehensive scores of 3 batches of samples were 0.6985,0.6755,0.7016 in the verification test,respectively,RSDs were less than 5%(n=3). CONCLUSIONS:Optimized processing technology is simple,stable,feasible,and can provide reference for in-dustrial production of rehmanniae radix praeparata.
RESUMO
Objective CT-guided collagenase injection through posterolateral path into the interior and superficial prominence of the herniated lumbar disc in the treatment of L4-5 lumbar disk herniation.Methods The approach of posterolateral path to the prominence through intervertebral foramen and epidural space of L4-5 was established according to the analysis of anatomical features and vertebral medical images. The accuracy and safety of the approach were evaluated by CT scanning after epidural injection with air. CT-guided injection was operated in 66 cases of prolapse of L4-5 intervertebral disc confirmed by CT. Results Technical success was 100%. Followed up for 3 months to 3 years, 62 cases (93%) were markedly suecessfud with the effective rate of 93%. Twenty-three had CT re-examination three months later showed the prominences becoming smaller or disappeared in 22 patients having a resolved rate of 95%.Conclusions CT-guided injection of collagenase is one of the effective methods for the treatment of prolapse of L4-5 intervertebral disc.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the technique and effectiveness of CT-guided collagenase injection into prominence of herniated lumbar disc and the surface of prominence in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation. Methods One hundred and fifty-five patients with lumbar disc herniation diagnosed by clinic and CT received CT-guided collagenase injection, with the approaches via intervertebral foramen in L3-4 and L4-5, and the approaches via margo medialis of joint processus articularis in L5-S1. Results Injection was done successfully in all patients (100%), the clinical rate of excellent and good results were 94.2%. The herniation disappeared or significantly reduced as demonstrated by CT scan in 32 of 34 patients (94.1%), the rate of excellent and good results were 100%. No changes existed in 2 cases. There were 2 cases of disc inflammation in our group. Conclusions CT-guided collagenase injection into the prominence of herniated lumbar disc and its surface is a safe and efficient method in the treatment of herniated lumbar disc.
