Article Synopsis
- Functional dyspepsia is common, and current medications aren't very effective, leading to interest in alternative treatments like Xiangsha liujunzi decoction, a traditional Chinese medicine.
- The study analyzed data from 23 randomized controlled trials with over 2,100 participants to assess the effectiveness and safety of this herbal remedy.
- Results showed that Xiangsha liujunzi decoction was significantly more effective than the control in improving symptoms and gastric emptying, with no notable safety concerns, although the quality of the studies was low, indicating a need for better-designed trials.
A high performance liquid chromatography-time-of-flight-mass spectrometry (HPLC-TOF-MS) method was developed for analysing the chemical constituents in Hedyotis diffusa, which is widely used as a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in the field of cancer treatment. The compounds were identified either by comparing the retention time and mass spectrometry data with those of reference compounds or by analysing mass spectrometry data and retrieving reference literature. Among the detected chromatographic peaks, nine components were unambiguously identified, most of which were iridoids.
