70 patients with prostatic hyperplasia were observed. Among them 34 cases were treated with the regime of tonifying Kidney-replenishing Vitality (TKRV) and the other 36 cases were treated with removing blood stasis and resolving mass (Xiao Jin Dan). The dysuria of the patients in both groups was improved after treatment. The results of the transrectal ultrasonotomography showed as follows: (1) The effect on the volume of residual urine: the average values of the TKRV group were 43.29 +/- 14.03 ml before treatment and 17.24 +/- 5.13 ml after treatment (P < 0.05), that of Xiao Jin Dan were 21.17 +/- 5.57 ml and 7.37 +/- 2.87 ml respectively (P < 0.01). (2) The effect on the size of the prostate gland: only 10 cases in the TKRV group were measured both before and after treatment, the average size of the prostate gland were 46.30 +/- 8.23 ml and 43.60 +/- 4.52 ml respectively (P < 0.05), and 4 cases were decreased in the size after treatment. 35 cases in Xiao Jin Dan group were measured before and after treatment and their size of prostate gland were 47.83 +/- 2.50 ml and 43.45 +/- 2.24 ml (P < 0.01) respectively. 27 out of the 35 cases were decreased in their size of prostate gland. The results showed that the therapeutic effect of Xiao Jin Dan was slightly better than that of the TKRV, which suggested that the prostatic hyperplasia was closely related to the syndrome of Kidney-Deficiency as well as to the syndrome of Blood Stasis. So it is important that we combined the reinforcement and elimination in the treatment of prostatic hyperplasia.

The oil film formed by the adhesion of crude oil to the resin-asphalt adsorption layer is difficult to peel off due to the strong oil-solid interaction, which severely limits further improvements in oil recovery. Although conventional compound oil displacement systems can effectively reduce oil-water interfacial tension, facilitate oil droplet deformation, and alleviate the Jamin effect, they are insufficient in controlling the wettability of oleophilic rock surfaces. In this paper, sodium nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether sulfate (NPES) and sodium lauric acid ethanolamine sulfonate (HLDEA) were compounded to construct an efficient oil displacement system that simultaneously achieves wettability control of lipophilic surfaces and ultralow oil-water interfacial tension.

, a traditional Chinese herbal medicine, possesses antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory properties. The aim of this experiment was to investigate the therapeutic effect of extraction (AOE) in treating colitis induced by dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) in mice. The in vitro antioxidant activity of AOE was evaluated by assessing its iron reduction capacity and scavenging capacity towards 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and hydroxyl radicals (·OH).

In this study, an efficient membrane composed of polysulfone and graphene oxide was developed and evaluated for its efficacy in chromium adsorption. Characterization of the synthesized membrane involved comprehensive analyses including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) to assess its structural properties. Subsequently, the membrane's performance in removing chromium from aqueous solutions was scrutinized, considering key operational parameters.

Human amniotic epithelial cells (hAECs) have shown excellent efficacy in clinical research and have prospective applications in the treatment of many diseases. However, the properties of the hAECs and their proliferative mechanisms remain unclear. Here, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is performed on hAECs obtained from amniotic tissues at different gestational ages and passages during in vitro culture.
