OBJECTIVE To prepare traditional Chinese pharmaceutical film which can be absorbed through derma and have an effect of topical antibacterial , and take examinations of its film performance. METHODS The active ingredients extracted from the traditional Chinese medicine such as Aloe are blended in a certain proportion as the dressing of chitosan and casted into films. The thickness of the films were measured by the thickness measurement instrument, and the performance of the films was tested and compared such as film forming, swelling and solubility, water holding capacity and permeability. RESULTS Aloe compound film as external applied agent has a desired film performance. CONCLUSION Aloe compound film which could be transdermally absorbed presents a promising potential in adjuvant therapy of ulcers, bedsores and other skin of mucous membrane infections.

Efficacy And Safety

Objective. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) therapies have been widely used for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia (AGA) for thousands of years. We conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the curative efficacy and safety of TCM for treating AGA. Methods. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of TCM for the treatment of AGA through March 2019 were systematically identified in 4 English databases, namely, PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, and Web of Science, and 4 Chinese databases, namely, Sino-Med, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), China Science and Technology Journal Database (VIP), and WanFang. Quality assessment and data analysis were performed by Review Manager 5.3.5, and Stata 15.1 was used to cope with publication bias. Results. 30 RCTs involving 2615 patients were randomly divided into a TCM group and a conventional medicine (CM) group. The results showed that the total efficacy rate (TER) of the TCM group was significantly higher than that of the control group (OR = 3.34, 95% CI = 2.75–4.05, P<0.00001). The total symptom score (TSS) of the TCM group was markedly reduced when compared with the CM group (SMD = −0.86; 95% CI = −1.19, −0.53; P<0.00001). The microelement levels (Fe2+, Zn2+, and Cu2+) in hair were significantly improved when complemented with TCM therapy. In addition, no significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of adverse events (OR = 0.55, 95% CI = 0.29–1.05, P=0.07). Conclusions. In view of the effectiveness and safety of TCM, the present meta-analysis suggests that TCM could be recommended as an effective and safe adjuvant therapy for the treatment of AGA by improving the TER, symptoms, serum testosterone levels, and microelement levels. However, long-term and higher-quality RCTs are needed to overcome the limitations of the selected studies and more precisely interrogate the efficacy and safety of TCM.

A history of recurrent benign mucous membrane pemphigoid episodes had plagued patients. Major treatments include immunosuppressant or systemic glucocorticoid drugs, but all of them have side effects. Therefore, we tried to find a way to minimize side effects by using traditional Chinese medicine, and speeding up the healing process.

Objective: To observe the effect of fuming-washing with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) after anorectal surgery. Methods: 116 cases of patients with surgical operation were selected in the anorectal department of our hospital, which is Shenzhen Bao’an Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Shenzhen. According to the different postoperative adjuvant treatment methods implemented by patients, they were divided into two groups under the premise of equal number of patients. Among them, 58 cases of patients with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) fuming-washing treatment were divided into study group, and patients with hip bath treatment with potassium permanganate solution were divided into common group. The efficacy of adjuvant therapy was observed. Results: The observation and analysis showed that the actual effect of TCM adjuvant therapy was more prominent, and the difference between groups was more significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The effect of traditional Chinese medicine adjuvant therapy is more significant than that of chemical method, which can help patients achieve better postoperative recovery effect. We should popularize this treatment in time for patients after surgery, and improve the prognosis of patients.
