A clinical trial with the collaboration of 15 department of urology was performed to determine the usefulness of terodiline hydrochloride in 99 patients whose chief complaints were of pollakisuria or incontinence due to neurogenic bladder, psychogenic disease or chronic cystitis. The patients were orally given 24 mg once daily for 4 weeks. The final global improvement rate was 88.5% and the effective rates on subjective symptoms were; 66.2% for diurnal urinary frequency, 68.0% for nocturnal urinary frequency, 68.8% for urinary incontinence and 78.3% for nocturnal enuresis. Even for the cases having mild bladder outlet obstructive disease, the clinical effective rates were good. Mild side effects were observed in 10 patients, which were dry mouth and others. The results obtained from this trial suggest that terodiline hydrochloride may be useful for the treatment of urinary frequency and incontinence caused by detrusor instability.

In a post-marketing surveillance study of 752 patients suffering from urgent incontinence, mixed urgent-stress incontinence, reflex incontinence, urgency and enuresis were treated with propiverine hydrochloride. Clinical efficacy of propiverine hydrochloride was verified by the improvement of symptoms related to detrusor hyperactivity, hypersensitivity and hyperreflexia during a 12-week surveillance period: daytime and overnight urinary incontinence, as well as the frequency, nocturia, urgency in day time and at night decreased. These results are well demonstrated by decreased pad use and statistically significant decrease of Gaudenz urgency score during treatment, confirming the efficacy of propiverine hydrochloride already proved in clinical trials. The safety profile of propiverine hydrochloride displayed characteristic anticholinergic symptoms (dry mouth, accommodation disorders, constipation, tiredness, dizziness) with decreasing incidence during the 12-week treatment period. The residual urine volume decreased also. Serious adverse events were observed rarely and could be explained by the lack of consideration of contraindications, warnings and interactions with other drugs. The positive risk-benefit relationship of propiverine hydrochloride in the treatment of detrusor hyperactivity, hypersensitivity and hyperreflexia was reconfirmed in this post-marketing drug surveillance study.

Objective To observe distribution laws and features of syndrome types of Chinese medicine (CM) in hyperlipidemia patients of Han, Uyghur, Kazakh nationalities in Xinjiang Uyghur Auton- omous Region. Methods Using cluster random sampling, 1 410 hyperlipidemia patients (18 -70 years old ) were recruited from Urumqi, Turpan, Altay, Ili, Aksu, Hetian in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Re- gion. The general condition, susceptible factors, classification of blood lipids, complications, syndromes of CM, tongue figure, etc. clinical data were investigated using self-formulated Epidemiological Investiga- tion Questionnaire on Susceptible Factors in Different Nationalities of Hyperlipemia Patients in Xinjiang (abbreviated as Questionnaire thereafter). Factor analysis and cluster analysis were performed. Results Cronbach's coefficient for the 54 syndrome items in Questionnaire was 0.891, Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) 0. 897, Sig <0.05 in Bartlett's sphericity test. Seventeen common factors were obtained using principal component analysis (PCA). Totally 54 common symptoms of hyperlipidemia were screened, which were then divided into 17 groups with 1 -6 symptoms in each group. F4 (soreness and weakness of waist and knees, sour pain in joints and muscles, body numbness, heavy body sensation, cold limbs), F5 (frequent and clear nocturia, dysuria,-dribble of urine, frequent urination at night), F10 (thirsty, no desire for water, tastelessness, hydroadipsia) , F12 (a white complexion with puffiness, hid- ing fever, hypoactive sexual desire) , and F17 (enuresis) were merged as Shen yang deficiency (SYD) ; F2 (fatigue, drowsiness, depression, spiritlessness, fatigue and disinclination to talk) and F15 (poor ap- petite) were merged as Pi-qi deficiency (PQD) ; F3 (dry mouth and dry pharynx, thirsty, propensity for water, bitter mouth, greasy mouth, stingy mouth, irritability and upset) and F16 (dark red tongue proper, greasy tongue fur) were merged as damp-heat trapped in Pi (DHTP). Results of cluster analysis showed that Pi-Shen deficiency (PSD) was most often seen in hyperlipidemia, and main syndrome types were sequenced from high to low as Pi-Shen deficiency type (46. 2%, 652/1 410) , blockage of cardiac vessels type ( 31. 1% , 438/1 410 ), phlegm and blood stasis internal resistance type ( 13. 3% , 187/1 410), Pi-deficiency induced damp abundance type (8. 3%, 123/1 410), Gan-Shen yin deficiency type (0. 7%, 10/1 410). Conclusions Deficiency syndrome was dominant in hyperlipidemia patients of Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. Phlegm turbidity, damp heat, and etc. were often complicated. The complex situation was manifested to be involved in multiple organs, qi-blood-fluid mixed disease.
