摘要:There are uncertainness in science of Chinese medicine (CM) because the infiltration of Chinese ancient culture, so the quintessence of CM is difficult to grasp. The CM circles and even the whole scientific circles are paying attention to the research of standardization of syndrome manifestations along with the scientific development. Set pair analysis (SPA) is a kind of systematic theory and method with related number of a+bi+cj for processing the uncertainness caused by confused, randomly, incomplete intermediary and information. SPA takes certainness and uncertainness as a certain and uncertain sameness-difference-counter system and processes it dialectically and mathematically. SPA is used in the research of syndrome manifestations of CM from the quantitative angle to understand the essence of certainness of CM at a systematic level. The research will improve the theoretical study of standardization of syndrome manifestations and objectivity of CM to a great extent.

摘要:The paper discussed the relationship between damp-heat constitution (DHC) and syndrome of damp-heat (SDH) from the angles of the disease occurrence, differentiation, treatment and drug administration. It is found that DHC and SDH were in different degrees and had a close relation. DHC was an important factor to the occurrence of SDH, and SDH, however, reflected the characteristic of DHC. DHC should be regulated to being normal when SDH was treated. If DHC was treated with Chinese medicine and the morbidity of SDH would be decreased at the same time. Many therapeutic methods and effective prescriptions of past ages can open our thought train for looking for drugs for regulating DHC.

摘要:Objective The primary study has confirmed that moxibustion preconditioning (MP) had a protective action on rats with adjuvant arthritis (AA). This paper investigated the protective mechanism of MP through an analysis of hypothalamic HSP70. Methods To observe the changes of hypothalamic HSP70 in AA rats before model established, at early stage and secondary stage after model established respectively by using immunohistochemistry, and to analyze these changes with image analysis technique. Results The expression of hypothalamic HSP70 was limited positive in the normal group, and that in AA group of early stage and secondary stage was strong positive compared with the normal group, but had a decreasing trend along with the disease course. In the groups with MP the abnormal high expressions of hypothalamic HSP70 were relived not only at early stage but also at secondary stage compared with AA group. MP also improved the expression of hypothalamic HSP70 in normal rats. Conclusion The protective action of MP on AA rats may be related to that it can improve the positive expression of hypothalamic HSP70 in normal rats, and decreases obviously the abnormal high expression of hypothalamic HSP70 in AA rats. Hypothalamic HSP70 may be one of important factors for MP actions of preventing and relieving the disease and strengthening the constitution.
