Meta Analysis[Meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis of Qingjin Huatan Decoction for treating community-acquired pneumonia in elderly].
To systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of modified Qingjin Huatan Decoction in the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia in the elderly, and provide evidence-based reference for the clinical application of this prescription. Randomized controlled trials of Qingjin Huatan Decoction in the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia in the elderly were collected by searching PubMed, EMbase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, China Biomedical Literature database, VIP database and WanFang database. Outcome indicators included clinical effective rate, inflammation index, symptom improvement time, chest radiograph improvement time, hospitalization time and adverse reactions. ⋯ GRADE evaluation showed that the evidence level was low to extremely low. Western medicine treatment combined with Qingjin Huatan Decoction may improve clinical efficiency in the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia in the elderly, improve clinical symptoms faster, reduce CRP, WBC and other inflammatory indicators, and shorten hospital stay. The level of evidence obtained in this study is low, which needs to be further verified by high-quality multi-center, randomized controlled trials.

[Traditional Chinese medicine insights of newly-diagnosed and young hypertension and clinical practice of Tianma Gouteng Decoction for hypertension treatment].
Hypertension is a global major public health problem. Early intervention and timely blocking are necessary for newly-diagnosed hypertensive and young hypertensive patients. Tianma Gouteng Decoction recorded in Zabing Zhengzhi Xinyi written by HU Guangci has the major functions in treating excess syndrome and wind-Yang disturbance syndrome with effects in calming liver-wind, clearing heat and activating blood, and nourishing liver and kidney. ⋯ However, with the regular monitoring of biomedical index, long-term treatment with Caulis Polygoni Multiflori(3-10 g·d~(-1) for 3 to 6 months) didn't show hepatic dysfunction. ⑦ The pharmacological activity of Tianma Gouteng Decoction coincided with the pathology and disease mechanism of newly-diagnosed and young hypertension. Therefore, Tianma Gouteng Decoction was the specific recipe for newly-diagnosed and young hypertension. Therefore, further studies of efficacy, safety and molecular mechanism of Tianma Gouteng Decoction may make a medical breakthrough for hypertension treatment.

[Research progress on hepatotoxicity of traditional Chinese medicine based on metabonomics].
With the continuous development of Chinese medicine, traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) has been widely used in the treatment of diseases and health care. At the same time, the toxic and side effects of TCM have been gradually concerned. The liver, as an important place for drug metabolism, is a major target organ for drug toxicity. ⋯ Metabono-mics is a newly booming subject to study the metabolic pathway of biological system. It shows integrity and systematicness in the study of hepatotoxicity of TCM, which provides a new technical method for finding the early biomarkers of liver injury of TCM and exploring the mechanism of hepatotoxicity of TCM. In this paper, the methods of metabonomics in the study of hepatotoxicity of TCM, as well as the research progress of hepatotoxicity monomer, extract and attenuation of hepatotoxic TCM based on metabonomics were reviewed in order to provide reference for the further study of hepatotoxicity of TCM.
