ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy of Chinese herbal enema in ileus patients. MethodsThe randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and quasi-RCTs about Chinese herbal enema and gastrointestinal intubation versus western medicines in the treatment of ileus disease was searched in PubMed, Web of Science, EMbase, The Cochrane Library (Issue 4, 2013), CBM, CNKI, VIP and WanFang Data from the date of their establishment to July 2013. Two reviewers independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data, and assessed the methodological quality of included studies. Then meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.1. ResultsA total of 27 RCTs and 3 quasi-RCTs involving 3 074 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that the Chinese herbal enema and gastrointestinal intubation group was superior to the control group in raising the total clinical effective rate (OR=4.69, 95%CI 3.70 to 5.94, P < 0.000 01), as well as shortening the hospitalization time (SMD=-1.19, 95%CI-1.42 to-0.96, P < 0.000 01), time of anus exhaust (SMD=-1.52, 95%CI-1.76 to-1.28, P < 0.000 01), defecation (SMD=-2.27, 95%CI-3.43 to-1.11, P=0.000 1), time of gastric tube indwelling (SMD=-1.56, 95%CI-1.86 to-1.27, P < 0.000 01), and symptoms complete resolution (SMD=-0.74, 95%CI-1.11 to-0.37, P < 0.000 1), all with significant differences. ConclusionChinese herbal enema and gastrointestinal intubation is more beneficial than western medicine alone for ileus. Due to limited quality of the included studies, the abovementioned conclusion still needs to be verified by conducting more high quality blinding RCTs.
目的 探讨婴幼儿肠套叠空气灌肠复位的指征、操作方法和中转手术的时机。方法 对我院1993～1998年5年间在X线透视下行空气灌肠复位治疗的婴幼儿肠套叠162例进行回顾性分析。结果 复位成功者148例，成功率为91.4%，其余14例中转手术治疗。随访1～5年，预后良好。结论 空气灌肠复位是婴幼儿肠套叠早期治疗的首选 方法，应谨慎把握其适应证，熟练掌握操作方法，不应轻易放弃而过早手术。但对病程较长，伴有腹膜炎体征或复位失败者，须及时手术治疗。
Objective To evaluate the effectivenss of Chinese herbal retention enema in viral hepatitis patients. Methods Such databases as The Cochrane library, PubMed, EMbase, VIP, CNKI, CBM and WanFang Data were searched from the inception to December, 2011 to collect the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about Chinese herbal retention enema in treating viral hepatitis, and the references of the included literature were also retrieved. Two reviewers independently screened the literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted the data, and evaluated and cross-checked the methodological quality. Then meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.0 software. Results A total of 20 RCTs involving 1 735 patients were included. The subgroup analyses based on the length of intervention time showed that: a) after 2-week intervention: the overall effective rate of the Chinese herbal retention enema group was higher than that of the control group, with a significant difference (OR=3.19, 95%CI 1.87 to 5.44, Plt;0.000 1). Compared with the control group, the Chinese herbal retention enema group better promoted the recovery of liver function by more reduction of AST (MD= ?82.50, 95%CI ?145.66 to ?19.34, P=0.01), ALT (MD= ?44.78, 95%CI 65.90 to ?23.66, Plt;0.000 1) and TBIL (MD= ?37.51, 95%CI ?74.07 to ?0.95, Plt;0.0001). b) After 1-month intervention: The overall effective rate of the Chinese herbal retention enema group was higher than that of the control group, with a significant difference (OR=4.17, 95%CI 2.37 to 7.32, Plt;0.000 01). Compared with the control group, the Chinese herbal retention enema group better promoted the recovery of liver function by more reduction of AST (MD= ?17.86, 95%CI ?29.97 to ?5.76, P=0.004), ALT (MD= ?27.84, 95%CI ?42.45 to ?13.24, P=0.000 2), and TBIL (MD= ?54.15, 95%CI ?116.52 to ?8.23, P=0.09). Conclusion Chinese herbal retention enema can improve the overall effective rate for viral hepatitis patients, alleviate virus damage to liver cell and promote liver function recovery. The commonly used Chinese medicinals for enema are Radix et Rhizoma Rhei, Herba Artemisiae Capillaris, Salvia miltiorrhiza, and Radix Paeoniae Rubra.
目的 比较电脑遥控灌肠整复仪与简易空气灌肠器对小儿肠套叠的整复效果，探讨更有效安全的空气灌肠设备。 方法 2002年11月－2011年11月对确诊的425例小儿肠套叠应用空气灌肠整复，其中198例采用简易空气灌肠器整复，227例用电脑遥控灌肠整复仪进行空气灌肠整复，并对不同病程时间、套叠部位与两种空气灌肠设备整复结果进行回顾性分析。 结果 198例患儿采用简易空气灌肠器整复成功率为71.2%，227例患儿采用电脑遥控灌肠整复仪的方式整复成功率为83.3%，后者成功率明显高于前者（P＜0.005），尤其是病程时间在24 h内，套叠部位位于升结肠或横结肠的后者整复成功率更高（P＜0.05）。 结论 电脑遥控灌肠整复仪比简易空气灌肠器更有效、安全。脉冲式空气灌肠能减轻套叠部位的痉挛与水肿，提高肠套叠的整复成功率。
ObjectiveTo improve the efficacy of colon doublecontrast barium enema examination by using digital gastrointestinal machine and modified enema techniques. MethodsSixtyfour patients were examined on digital remote controlled gyration table, with oral coloncleansing preparation and selfmade disposable plastic bag. Results In 64 patients, up to 93.8% were found with none or little fecal materials in the cecum and ascending colon. 80% of the results were scored excellent, and 95% were accurate for making diagnosis. All the patients underwent the examination successfully. ConclusionDigital gastrointestinal machine examination combined with modified hypotonic doublecontrast barium enema is a simple, convenient and efficient way to clearly demonstrate colonic mucosa, and help increase the detection and diagnosis rate.
