Secondarily, factors related to the magnitude of improvements in BMD after treatment were investigated. Methods: Postmenopausal women with idiopathic osteoporosis or at risk of developing it, who were going to start treatment with ibandronate 150 mg once a month plus daily supplementation with vitamin D 400-800 IU and calcium 500-1,000 mg, were followed up for 6 months. BMD, HRQoL (mini-Osteoporosis Quality of Life Questionnaire), and treatment adherence (Morisky scale) were studied before and after treatment. Results: Four hundred and twenty-five women were assessed at baseline, and 308 (72%) were reassessed at month 6. Lumbar spine, proximal femur, and hip BMD increased by 3.35 ± 0.75, 1.88 ± 0.50, and 2.75 ± 0.32%, respectively (p < 0.001 for all). HRQoL total score and emotional functioning, symptoms, physical function, and leisure subscores improved by 26-49% (p < 0.01 in all cases). Lower body mass index, younger age at menopause, use of corticoids, and higher adherence were significantly and independently associated with a greater improvement in lumbar spine BMD (logistic regression). Conclusion: Improvements in BMD and HRQoL after ibandronate, vitamin D, and calcium were observed in patients from Central America, which should be confirmed by double-blind, randomized, controlled trials. Lack of adherence to ibandronate was related to worse outcomes, thus highlighting the need for work on this issue with patients on treatment.","PeriodicalId":91502,"journal":{"name":"Integrative medicine international","volume":"3 1","pages":"82 - 88"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1159/000448478","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65099413","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To establish the scientific evidence needed to promote the further adoption of traditional medicine (TM) and complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) into healthcare systems worldwide, it is important that doctors of IM publish their findings in English. The English-language, cross-disciplinary journal Integrative Medicine International aims to publish such work, by focusing on reporting ‘new methods in [TM/CAM] research and therapy to complement and extend the methods of Western medicine'. The journal acts as a portal for the latest innovations, developments, trends, opinions, and achievements in TM. The purpose of this editorial is to encourage and support authors across a wide range of disciplines to report their research and clinical findings in IM. The article starts by explaining the process of preparing a suitable manuscript for the journal and then describes the general process of manuscript preparation, peer review, and publication that is common to many international journals. Some advices are also given to authors who are nonnative speakers to help them submit manuscripts of sufficient quality of English for review and in accordance with ethical publishing standards.","PeriodicalId":91502,"journal":{"name":"Integrative medicine international","volume":"3 1","pages":"68 - 74"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1159/000448037","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65091705","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is confusing that the viscera in Oriental and Occidental medicine have the same name. Out of the 5 viscera in Oriental medicine, it is the spleen that differs most from that in Occidental medicine. It mainly corresponds to the digestive organs and pancreas and has no relation to the spleen in Occidental medicine, a kind of lymph tissue. On the other hand, the concept of each of the other Oriental viscera includes the corresponding viscus in Occidental medicine. Key Messages: The 11 aspects of the kidney in Oriental medicine correspond to three kinds of endocrine and metabolic systems, all of which are associated with aging.","PeriodicalId":91502,"journal":{"name":"Integrative medicine international","volume":"52 1","pages":"64 - 67"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1159/000447491","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65078311","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection, cytotoxin-associated gene A and urease subunit B regulate the number of Th17 cells via induction of cell differentiation by infected macrophages, activation of MyD88 and other pathways, and by driving chemokines, which upregulates the number of both Th17 cells and regulatory T cells (Tregs) and switches towards a Treg-type immune response. Meanwhile, Th17 cells also play important roles in the response to Hp infection, participating in the clearance of Hp by recruiting neutrophils and expanding inflammatory response, causing mucosal damage and even inducing cancer. Thereby, Th17 cells participate in the occurrence and development of Hp-related diseases, such as gastritis, peptic ulcer disease and gastric cancer.","PeriodicalId":91502,"journal":{"name":"Integrative medicine international","volume":"3 1","pages":"57 - 63"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1159/000446317","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65066636","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, we analyzed the situation of HILI in China and its risk factors in detail. In addition, the legal regime of the HM industry in contemporary China is introduced. Recently, the mechanisms of HILI have been widely studied, and epidemiological investigations into HILI have been conducted.

Tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) is the only FDA-approved drug for ischemic stroke treatment with a narrow treatment time window of 4.5 h. Hemorrhagic transformation (HT) is a severe complication of delayed t-PA treatment in ischemic stroke. Thus, it is critically important to develop combination therapies to reduce HT and extend the therapeutic time window of t-PA. Current progress suggests that peroxynitrite (ONOO-)/high-mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1)/matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) signaling cascades could be important for attenuating HT during thrombolytic treatment for acute ischemic stroke. Recently, important progress has been made in seeking for natural compounds from Chinese medicine for reducing ischemic stroke injury, with some of them targeting ONOO-/HMGB1/MMP-9 signaling cascades. Herein, we analyze the roles and interactions of these three targets in mediating HT; subsequently, we summarize the potential compounds from Chinese herbal medicine for attenuating HT and analyze the related targets. Finally, we raise the potential issues to be addressed in further development of these compounds as combination therapy.","PeriodicalId":91502,"journal":{"name":"Integrative medicine international","volume":"3 1","pages":"32 - 52"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1159/000442468","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64978940","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
