The Efficacy Of Guolin-qigong On The Body-mind Health Of Chinese Women With Breast Cancer: A Randomized Controlled Trial
No full textPurpose: This study was to evaluate the efficacy of a complementary Chinese treatment modality Guolin-Qigong (GLQG) for patients with breast cancer on the body-mind health. Methods: A randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted among 158 women with breast cancer. Subjects were randomized to receive GLQG (test group) versus a physical stretching program (control group) following conventional treatment for breast cancer. GLQG and stretching interventions were performed twice a week over 24 weeks. The primary outcome was the change in quality of life (QoL). Secondary outcome measures included anxiety, depression, and clinical indicators. All participants were assessed at four time-points, at the beginning of the study (T1), after 12 weeks of the intervention (T2), immediately after 24-week intervention (T3), and at 48-week follow-up visit (T4). Results: Improvements in QoL were evident in both groups but the test group fared better than the control group at the 12th week (P 0.05). Both groups showed improvements in immunological function and the test group fared better than the control in TNF-α levels (P < 0.05). The results in subjects who practiced more than 4 times and 6 h per week were similar to that of all subjects; however, the improvement in anxiety in the GLQG group was more obvious. There are positive correlations between QoL and anxiety and depression. Conclusions: Both GLQG and physical stretching are beneficial during recovery following breast cancer. GLQC was more effective in terms of Qol improvements than physical stretching. Both programs brought improvements in anxiety or depression but had were comparable. GLQC group had a greater effect on immunological function than physical exercise.link_to_subscribed_fulltex
Toxicity of raw and processed roots of Polygonum multiflorum
No full textThe roots of Polygonum multillorum (Chinese name: He-Shou-Wu. HSW) are used in traditional Chinese medicine for many diseases in processed form or raw state. There are reports dealing with the toxicity of HSW. However, the toxicity is caused by over dosage or by the herb itself remains unclear. We evaluated the toxicity of raw and processed HSW on Kunming (KM) mice. For raw HSW, the toxicity of water decocta is much higher than that of acetone extract. Meanwhile, the toxicity of acetone extract of raw HSW is considerably higher than that of acetone extract of processed HSW. HPLC analyses revealed that the contents of characteristic compounds in raw HSW were changed after processing: the content of 2.3.4'.5-tetrahydroxystilbene 2-O-beta-D-glucoside was decreased by 55.8%, whereas the content of emodin was increased by 34.0%. Thus, processing could reduce the toxicity of HSW. Thus, the toxicity of HSW does not depend on the content of anthranoid derivatives, it may be correlated with the content of tetrahydroxystilbene glucosides. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V.

This bibliometric review aims to analyze global research trends on overweight women, particularly those with gynecologic and breast cancers, to identify research hotspots, key contributors, and emerging areas of study.Methods: A comprehensive bibliometric analysis was conducted using the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database, covering the period from January 2013 to September 2024. Articles were screened and analyzed using tools such as VOSviewer and Biblioshiny platform, with metrics including publication volume, citation analysis, and co-authorship networks. Key areas of focus were global research trends, leading countries, institutions, authors, journals, and keyword analysis.Results: A total of 1452 publications were analyzed. Research activity on the association between obesity and gynecologic/breast cancer has steadily increased, with the United States leading in publications and citations, followed by China and Italy. Core journals included Breast Cancer Research and Treatment and Gynecologic Oncology. Key research areas identified through keyword analysis include the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and cancer risk, survival rates in cancer patients, physical activity, and the role of adipose tissue inflammation in tumor progression. Emerging topics include extracellular vesicles and cancer-associated fibroblasts.Conclusion: Global research on the relationship between obesity and female-specific cancers has shown significant growth. The findings highlight BMI, survival, and physical activity as central themes. Future research should explore the molecular mechanisms linking obesity to cancer and evaluate weight loss interventions for cancer prevention and treatment.Keywords: obesity, gynecologic cancer, breast cancer, bibliometrics, women healt
