Fever in cancer patients is often due to the following causes: evil qi and toxity stagnancy, disorders of qi and blood, deficiencies of zang and fu organs, and the disorder of yin and yang. The treatments given to cancer patients with a fever are according to five: (a) Excessive inner heat and toxicants: remove heat and the toxicant, induce purgation. We use Cheng-Qi-Tang plus Qing-Wen-Bai-Du-Yin. (b) Tangle of damp and heat, and qi stagnancy: remove damp and heat, smooth the qi channel. We use Gan-Lu-Xiao-Du-Dan or San-Ren-Tang. (c) Obvious blood and heat stagnancy: remove heat and blood stasis. We use Xue-Fu-Zhu-Yu-Tang. (d) Deficiency of spleen qi, inner heat caused by a yin deficiency: nourish spleen qi and yin to remove the inner heat. We use Bu-Zhong-Yi-Qi-Tang or Xiao-Jian-Zhong-Tang. (e) Prominent yin deficiency and hectic fever: replenish yin and remove inner heat. We use Qing-Hao-Bie-Jia-Tang or Chai-Qian-Mei-Lian-San. The pathogenesis of fever in cancer patients is complicated. We can see both deficiency and excess in one differentiation. Therefore, we must make sure of it, then we can get the most effective treatment.

Jie Xiao,Ge Guo,Yali Li,Byoung Ryong Jeong 한국원예학회 2021 한국원예학회 학술발표요지 Vol.2021 No.5

Hydrangea macrophylla is a popular perennial ornamental shrub grown commercially as potted plants, landscape plants, and cut flowers. The aim of this work was to investigate effect of iron (Fe) source and medium pH on growth and development of H. macrophylla in vitro. The Fe sources used, including non-chelated iron sulfate (FeSO4) and iron ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (Fe-EDTA), were supplemented to the multipurpose medium with a final Fe concentration of 2.78 mg·L^-1. The medium without any supplementation of Fe was used as the control. The pH of the agar-solidified medium was adjusted to either 4.70, 5.70, or 6.70 before autoclaving. The experiment was conducted in a culture room for 60 days at 25/18°C day and night temperatures, and a 16hour photoperiod provided at a light intensity of 50 mmol·m^-2·s^-1 photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) from white light emitting diodes. Both Fe source and pH affected growth and development of the micro propagated plantlets in vitro. The leaf color was greener in the pH 4.70 treatment regardless of the Fe source. Besides, both Fe sources increased the leaf chlorophyll content. Numbers of shoots and roots in plantlets treated with FeSO4 were 2.0 and 2.7 times greater than those of the control, respectively. Fresh and dry weights of the shoot and the root were the greatest in the treatment of FeSO4 combined with pH 4.70. The tissue Fe content decreased with the increasing medium pH, and contents of potassium (K), calcium (Ca), and magnesium (Mg) in the plantlets increased in the pH 4.70 treatment regardless of the Fe source. Overall, the plantlet absorbed more Fe in the pH 4.70, and FeSO4 combined with pH 4.70 was found to be the best for growth and development of H. macrophylla plantlets in vitro.

Xiao-Rong Chang,Jing Shen,Mi Liu,Xiao-Juan Wang,Jie Yan 사단법인약침학회 2010 Journal of Acupuncture & Meridian Studies Vol.3 No.3

The effect of acupuncture at the acupoints of 12 meridians on gastrointestinal and cardiac electricity in healthy adults was studied. Specific regulation between meridian points and viscera was also investigated. An electrogastrogram (EGG),electrointestinogram (EIG), carotid pulse graph, phonocardiogram and electrocardiogram were obtained in 30 healthy adults before and after acupuncture at various acupoints of 12 meridians. The effects of acupuncture on the amplitude and frequency of the EGG, EIG, pre-ejection period and the left ventricular ejection time were then analyzed. Acupuncture revealed that LR3 decreased the amplitude of the EGG while LI11 (Quchi), SJ5 (Waiguan), ST36 (Zusanli), SP9 (Yinlingquan) and SI6 (Yanglao) increased the amplitude. Multiple comparisons among the latter five acupoints indicated that there were significant differences between SP9, LI11, SJ5and ST36 (p < 0.01, p < 0.01, p < 0.05) and SI6, LI11 and SJ5 (p < 0.01, p < 0.05). SP9effected EGG amplitude the most, followed by SI6, ST36, SJ5 and LI11. Four acupoints increased the amplitude of the EIG (p < 0.05), including HT5 (Tongli), GB34(Yanglingquan), SP9 and SI6. No significant differences were observed between these acupoints, but SI6 showed the most obvious effect on EIG amplitude, followed by GB34, SP9 and HT5. No significant effects on the frequency of the gastrointestinal slow wave or on cardiac function indexes were observed. Effects were observed, however,on pre-ejection period and left ventricular ejection time. Routine acupuncture had no detrimental effects on the stomach, intestine and heart in healthy adults,but instead regulated physiological function within a normal range. These findings demonstrate the existence of specific connections between the meridian points and the viscera. The results suggest that multiple meridians control the same viscus,and the same meridian can regulate the functions of multiple viscera.

Model-Deviation Compensation Control for Uncertain Systems with Time Delay

Xiao-Jie Sun,Hua Ye,Shu-Min Fei 제어로봇시스템학회 2010 제어로봇시스템학회 국제학술대회 논문집 Vol.2010 No.10

A novel model-deviation compensation control strategy is developed for a class of uncertain systems with time delay in this paper. Taking an identified second-order plus dead-time (SOPDT) process for example, the whole design methodology is proposed, which integrates the prediction model, the sliding function design, the equivalent control term and the model-deviation compensation control law. Firstly the delay-ahead predictor with the feedback correction is constructed to weaken the affection of time delay in the system. Then by improving the classical sliding mode control, after obtaining the equivalent control term, the model-deviation compensation term is derived from the actual regulated response and the deviation to be eliminated, so that the modeling uncertainties and external disturbances can be restrained. Finally the establishment and feasible solution of LMI guarantee that the system output reaches the desired value. The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.

Foliar Spray of Silicon to Both Mother and Daughter Plants during Summer Cutting Propagation Enhances Transplant Resistance to High Temperature Stress

Jie Xiao,Yali Li,Byoung Ryong Jeong 한국원예학회 2021 한국원예학회 학술발표요지 Vol.2021 No.10

Silicon (Si) has been reported to have beneficial effects on plant growth and stress resistance. However, few studies focused on the resistance to high temperature by Si at the propagation stage of strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.). This work aimed to find out the best method of Si application in enhancing resistance of strawberry transplants to high temperatures which occur during the hot summer when strawberries are propagated for commercial greenhouse production in Korea. Mother plants of strawberry ‘Maehyang’ were subjected to one of the five treatments before their daughter plants being cutting propagated: no treatment (control), substrate dressing of a water-soluble silicate fertilizer, medium drench of 75 mg·L<SUP>-1</SUP> Si, or foliar spray of 75 mg·L<SUP>-1</SUP> Si. Then a half of the propagated daughter plants or transplants in each treatment received continued Si supply by the same method, either substrate dressing, medium drench, or foliar spray after cutting propagation. A high temperature (43°C) resistance test was conducted in plant growth chambers for 7 days with a 16 h photoperiod provided at a 300 mmol·m<SUP>-2</SUP>·s<SUP>-1</SUP> PPFD. Shoot fresh weight of the transplant significantly increased by Si treatment regardless of the method of application. During the high temperature test, rate of decline in the photosynthesis of plants treated with Si was less than that of the control plants. Moreover, water content of the transplants fed with Si only before cutting propagation and during the whole propagation process were 40 and 80% higher than the control, respectively. Overall, Si application promoted growth of transplants regardless of the Si application method used. Furthermore, Si application by foliar sprays to not only mother plants, but also daughter plants gave the best results amongst and is recommended to enhance the resistance to high temperature of strawberry transplants during summer propagation.

Species Classification and Quality Assessment of Chaihu (Radix Bupleuri) Based on High-Performance Liquid Chromatographic Fingerprint and Combined Chemometrics Methods

Xiao-Jie Li,Jie Hu,Zhen-Yu Li,Xue-Mei Qin,Li-Zeng Zhang,Xiao-Qing Guo 대한약학회 2011 Archives of Pharmacal Research Vol.34 No.6

A high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method was established to analyze 36 Chaihu (Radix Bupleuri) samples collected from three species (Bupleurum chinense DC., B. scorzonerifolium Willd. and B. smithii Wolff.). Addition of trifluoroacetic acid into the mobile phase resulted in fingerprint chromatograms with stable baselines. There were thirty-two characteristic peaks in the standard fingerprint of B. chinense DC. Different recognition pattern methods, including similarity analysis (SA), hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA), principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least squares-discrimination analysis (PLS-DA) were utilized to analyze the 36 samples based on the contents of chemical constituents. Consistent results from SA, HCA and PCA analysis illustrated the rationalisation for why B. smithii Wolff. was not quoted in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia and classified samples were in agreement with their species. PLS-DA loading plots showed the chemical markers which had the most influences on the separation among different species. However, SA, HCA and PCA could not differentiate between wild and cultivated B. chinense DC. as well as between samples from different provinces. HPLC fingerprint in combination with chemometric techniques provided a very flexible and reliable method for homogeneity evaluation and quality assessment of traditional Chinese medicine.
