Evaluation of the comparative influence of magnesium sulfate single and combination with ritodrine hydrochloride in the prevention of preterm delivery / Avaliação da influência comparativa de sulfato de magnésio único e combinação com cloridrato de ritodrina na prevenção de parto prematuro

This project was designedto explore the effects of ritodrine hydrochloride combined with magnesium sulfate in the prevention of preterm delivery of patients with threatened premature birth. 128 cases of threatened premature birth were randomly divided into two groups according to the number table method. The control group was treated with magnesium sulfate, while the study group was treated with ritodrine hydrochloride combined with magnesium sulfate. The data (p > 0.05) was analyzed using SPSS 18.0 and was subjected to Chi-square and t-test. The onset time and prolonged gestation time of the study group were shorter than those of the control group (p < 0.05). There was no difference in the incidence of myocardial ischemia between the study group and the control group (p > 0.05). The heart rate per minute of the study group was higher than that of the control group (p < 0.05). There was no difference in blood pressure between the study group and the control group. Nevertheless, the neurological function, pregnancy outcome, and neonatal status of the group were better than those of the control group (p < 0.05).(AU)

Este projeto foi desenvolvido para explorar os efeitos do cloridrato de ritodrina combinado com sulfato de magnésio na prevenção do parto prematuro de pacientes com risco de nascimento prematuro. 128 casos de nascimento prematuro ameaçado foram divididos aleatoriamente em dois grupos, de acordo com o método da tabela numérica. O grupo de controle foi tratado com sulfato de magnésio, enquanto o grupo de estudo foi tratado com cloridrato de ritodrina combinado com sulfato de magnésio. Os dados (p > 0,05) foram analisados pelo SPSS 18.0 e submetidos ao teste do qui-quadrado e ao teste t. O tempo de início e o tempo prolongado de gestação do grupo de estudo foram menores que os do grupo de controle (p < 0,05). Não houve diferença na incidência de isquemia miocárdica entre o grupo de estudo e o grupo de controle (p > 0,05). A frequência cardíaca por minuto do grupo de estudo foi superior à do grupo controle (p < 0,05). Não houve diferença na pressão arterial entre o grupo de estudo e o grupo de controle. No entanto, a função neurológica, o resultado da gravidez e o status neonatal do grupo foram melhores do que os do grupo de controle (p < 0,05).(AU)

Clinical Observation on Treatment of Chronic Renal Failure Using Shen-Kang Injection Combined with Hemodialysis / 世界科学技术-中医药现代化

This study was aimed to explore the clinical efficacy of Shen-Kang Injection (SKI) combined with hemodialysis in the treatment of chronic renal failure (CRF) patients. A total of 41 end-stage CRF patients under the hemodialysis treatment were randomly divided into the SKI treatment group of 19 cases and a control group of 22 cases. Both groups were treated with standard dialysis and the hemodialysis was maintained in the same symp-tomatic treatment conditions. Patients in the control group underwent three hemodialysis treatments in one week, while those in the treatment group were given hemodialysis twice a week based on the symptomatic treatment. And SKI was given after each time of hemodialysis in the treatment group. Indexes and changes in serum creati-nine (Scr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) level, dialysis adequacy, nutrition status, traditional Chinese medicine ( TCM ) syndrome and other aspects of both groups were observed . The results showed that in the treatment group and control group, there were no significant differences in the renal function, dialysis adequacy, nutrition indica-tors and electrolyte ( P > 0 . 05 ) . In the treatment group , the total efficiency of TCM syndrome was 84 . 21%. And the total efficiency of TCM syndrome in the control group was 45.45%. The treatment group was better than the control group (P 0 . 05 ) . Symptoms such as fatigue , shortness of breath, poor appetite, dizziness, headache, lower back pain and spontaneous sweating were improved significantly. And there was statistical significance ( P < 0 . 05 ) . The treatment group was better than the control group . There were no abnormalities in the routine tests of blood, urine and stool, electrocardiogram, liver function, renal func-tion and electrolyte. In the treatment group, there was no significant adverse reactions during patients received SKI. The SKI has good safety. It was concluded that SKI combined with hemodialysis in the treatment of CRF is able to improve the clinical symptoms of patients and improve the patients' quality of life. When patient received adequate dialysis, SKI may reduce the dialysis frequency per week.
