Dahuang Mudanpi Decotion

To evaluate the effect of Dahuang Mudan Tang (, DHMD) and allopurinol on the treatment of chronic kidney disease staged G1-G3b patients with hyperuricemia and to provide novel insights into the clinical management of chronic kidney disease complications.

A total of 80 chronic kidney patients staged G1-G3b with hyperuricemia were randomly grouped to receive single allopurinol treatment (control) and combined treatment with DHMD (treated) for 8 weeks. The kidney function and proteinuria indicators of patients were compared between pre-and post-treatment. The oxidative stress and inflammation responses were evaluated by corresponding indicators and cytokines. The clinical efficiency rate and adverse reaction events were also summarized to assess the therapeutic efficiency and safety.

The kidney function and proteinuria of enrolled patients were alleviated after their therapies, behaved as the increasing estimated glomerular filtration rate and decreasing serum creatinine, serum uric acid, urea nitrogen, 24 h urine protein levels. On the other hand, the malondialdehyde level and pro-inflammation cytokines were suppressed by the therapies, and the superoxide dismutase was found to be significantly enhanced. Patients in the treated groups showed a better recovery in kidney function, proteinuria, oxidative stress, and inflammation response. Moreover, patients in the treated group showed a higher efficiency rate (95%) and fewer adverse reaction events (5%).

The combination of allopurinol with DHMD significantly promoted the recovery of chronic kidney disease stage G1-G3b patients with hyperuricemia, which can be considered a novel clinical therapeutic strategy.

Appendicitis is a common acute abdominal disease. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that acute appendicitis is caused by the accumulation of heat and toxin, and the formation of carbuncle and pus in the colon due to stasis. Therefore, treatment should be carried out to clear heat and detoxify, clear the organs, and eliminate carbuncle. Dahuang Mudan Tang contains various traditional Chinese medicines for clearing heat and detoxifying, which can be used to treat appendicitis. This study observes the therapeutic effect of Dahuang Mudan Tang on patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery for acute appendicitis.

Eight databases were searched by computer and inclusion criteria were pre determined before evaluation: (1) patients with appendicitis; (2) 18-70 years old; (3) Agree to this study and obtain randomized controlled trials at home and abroad on the combined treatment of appendicitis with caesarean section and rhubarb peony testing. Using RevMan 5.3 software, conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the cultivation quality and conduct data analysis.

The meta-analysis ultimately included 16 papers. They are all considered randomized controlled trials. The overall efficiency of the test unit and control unit was reported in 12 surveys. The total effective rate of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group (Odds Ratio (OR): (1.16; 95% Cl: 1.11,1.20; P < .001), and the duration of bowel sounds was also significantly higher than that of the control group. Standardized mean deviation (SMD): (-7.39; 95% Cl: -8.48, -6.30; P < .01), defecation time SMD: (-1.60; 95% Cl: -2.07, -1.12; P < .01).

Based on the total effective rate, defecation time, defecation time, CRP, IL-6, and adverse reactions of participants in this study, the combination of Dahuang Mudan Tang and laparoscopy in the treatment of appendicitis may be beneficial, which can improve clinical efficacy, inhibit inflammatory reactions, and promote postoperative recovery of patients. It is worth promoting and applying in clinical practice. However, these findings still require more high-quality research to confirm. Patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery for appendicitis were treated with Dahuang Mudan Tang combined with targeted intervention.
