摘要:Objective To investigate the effects of TCM therapies of nourishing yin to clear heat and invigorating the spleen to remove phlegm( NYCH and ISRP) on meibomian gland dysfunction( MGD) and MGD-related dry eyes. Methods Altogether 58 patients suffering from MGD or MGD-related dry eyes were randomly divided into treatment group and control group( n = 29 each),but four cases dropped out. In addition to patients in the control group treated with artificial tears eye drops,antibiotic eye drops and ointments,flushing conjunctival sac,extrusion meibomian gland and cleaning the eyelid margin,those in the treatment group orally took TCM medicinals granules formulated by the principle of TCM therapies NYCH and ISRP for consecutive two weeks. The subjective symptoms before and after treatment were recorded,including ocular surface disease index( OSDI),degree of lipid secretion of meibomian glands,lipid layer thickness,tear break-up time( BUT),corneal fluorescein staining( FL) and SchirmerⅠ test values( SⅠT). Results The total effective rate of treatment group was 89. 29%,with 21. 43%( 6 /28) markedly effective,67. 86%( 19 /28) effective and 10. 71 %( 3 /28) ineffective; while the total effective rate of control group was 61. 54%,with none markedly effective,61. 54 %( 16 /26) effective and 38. 46 % ineffective( 10 /26). The clinical efficacy of treatment group was superior to that of control group( Z =- 2. 236,P = 0. 025). OSDI,degree of lipid secretion and lipid layer thickness reduced after treatment in both groups( P < 0. 05),but the differences in treatment group were significantly more than those of the control group( P < 0. 05). BUT increased after treatment in both groups( P < 0. 05),while the difference in treatment group were more than that of the control group( P < 0. 05). FL decreased after treatment in the treatment group( P < 0. 05),while no statistical difference in control group( P > 0. 05). SⅠT increased after treatment in the treatment group( P < 0. 05),while no change in the control group( P> 0. 05); and the difference in the treatment group was more than that of the control group( P < 0. 05).Conclusion It was suggested that the combination of TCM therapies of nourishing yin to clear heat,invigorating the spleen to remove phlegm with conventional therapy would be superior to conventional therapy only on MGD and MGD-related dry eye.

摘要:The theory of"triple energizers membrane system"was propounded by Professor KONG Guangyi,an outstanding senior traditional Chinese practitioner at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine,based on his over 60 years’ clinical experiences,which often guides the pattern differentiation and treatment for complex diseases. The theory,attempting to visualize the abstract and fuzzy concept of triple energizers,consists two parts: outside membrane system,referred as the passageway of dispelling evil,and inside membrane system,considered as the passageway of tonifying. Taking professor KONG’s treating on a patient with Takayasu’s arteritis as an example to discuss the therapeutic thoughts of application of the theory of triple energizers membrane system. In addition,the procedure of treatment reflected KONG’s thoughts on holistic concept,exterior evil,and giving consideration to menstruation.

摘要:With the TCM constitutional theory being introduced into syndrome differentiation and treatment,a typical method of TCM clinical practice,the combination of constitution identification and application of classical prescriptions for gastric carcinoma has become the hot spot. Identification of constitution is the same substantially as differentiation of syndromes: syndrome differentiation is based on the constitution identification which is one part of the syndrome differentiation,and the constitution identification makes syndrome differentiation more efficiency and more accuracy. So,modified Liangfu Formula,a classical prescription,is applied to the gastric carcinoma patients with pattern of yang deficiency and blood stasis to alleviate their symptoms.
