ABSTRACT
Objective To summarize the characteristics of TCM syndrome of epidemic encephalitis B by retrospective analysis,provide the reference for the clinical diagnosis and treatment. Methods A form of collecting TCM syndrome was disigned and filled.Clinical date were collected from 85 cases of epidemic encephalitis B. We analysised and con-cluded the characteristic of TCM syndrome. Results The main TCM syndrome included fever and nausea ,coma and aversion to cold,shiver, vomiting,sag,convulsion,drowsiness.The classification of TCM syndromes were two types. One was the harm with QIFEN and YINGFEN,the other was the harm with WEIFEN and QIFEN. Conclusion The main classification of TCM syndromes of epidemic encephalitis B was the harm with QIFEN and YINGFEN,it was serious, but the other one was eusemia.It is important to treat in QIFEN phase ,which will control the patient ’s condition.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Peripheral blood leucopenia and thrombocytopenia are the main manifestations in severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) patients. However, the underlying causes are poorly understood. Therefore, we aimed to investigate cytology of bone marrow samples collected from SFTS patients. METHODS: 10 SFTS patients were identified by typical clinical manifestations, detection of peripheral blood leucopenia and thrombocytopenia, and nucleic acid-based detection of the newly identified bunyavirus. SFTS patients, along with 10 participants with acute aplastic anemia and 10 healthy volunteers were enrolled in this study after written informed consent to undergo bone marrow cytological examination. RESULTS: We observed similar bone marrow properties in SFTS patients and healthy volunteers, significantly different from the characteristics observed in acute aplastic anemia patients. CONCLUSION: Similarities between bone marrow samples collected from SFTS patients and healthy volunteers suggest that peripheral blood leucopenia and thrombocytopenia do not result from bone marrow cell plasticity.
