摘要:The concept of construction history of TCM theory is proposed.The relative literature has been tidied in the perspective of medical though history taking an example of qi being in charge of exhaling misquoted as qi being in charge of warming in Nanjing: The Twenty-Second Nan.The authors indicated that the misquotation is related to the requirement of theoretical construction of qi being in charge of warming,which,however,has connection with the background of integrating Chinese and Western medicine.The construction of modern TCM theory is facing a dilemma whether to defer to ancient meaning or absorb new knowledge.Citing ancient words and changing their meaning cannot offer solutions.The paper,finally,put forward the ideas of restoring to the original,clarifying TCM system and making original innovation for promoting the development of TCM theory.

摘要:Objective: To establish the animal model of urinary tract infection(UTI) during menopause.Methods All experimental mice were ovariectomized and infected in urinary tracts,and then the results of UTI were reviewed by using vaginal smears,vaginal keratinocytic method,observation on serum estradiol 2(E2) level,and bladder germiculture and bladder pathological grading.Results The vaginal smears showed and maintained diestrous manifestations in infection group and non-infection group 5 days after ovariectomizing,while those maintained periodic variation in sham-operation infection group and sham-operation non-infection group.The cornification index of exfoliative vaginal cells decreased significantly in infection group and non-infection group than that in sham-operation infection group and sham-operation non-infection group.The level of E2 was significantly lower in infection group and non-infection group after ovariectomizing than that in sham-operation infection group and sham-operation non-infection group(P<0.01).The results of bladder urine culture and pathological section showed that the mice were all infected in infection group and sham-operation infection group,while the results were all negative in non-infection group and sham-operation non-infection group.Conclusion Mice are infected in bladder after ovariectomizing and they initially meet the requirement of animal model of UTI during menopause.
摘要:Objective To analyze concrete thinking with oriental characteristics by using electroencephalogram(EEG) examination,and discover the independence characteristics based on the changes of power spectrum in α-frequency range.Methods After training of mental tasks,69 students from universities were selected,and their EEG changes were detected during the processes of concrete thinking,Abstract thinking and thinking in images.The relative power was extracted from α-frequency range(including α1-frequency range and α2-frequency range) by applying power spectrum analysis.The three thinking forms were compared with common static state.Results In α1-frequency range,the comparison in distribution among concrete thinking,common static state,thinking in images and Abstract thinking showed greatly significant difference(P<0.001).The three thinking forms had higher power than common static state,and showed parallel arrangement distribution and clear boundaries without linear cross.The characteristics of spatial distribution of concrete thinking showed Fz high power,lead O1 and lead F7 tending to consistency,and lead C3 showing high power reaction.In α2-frequency range,the comparison between concrete thinking and common static state showed greatly significant difference(P<0.001),and showed no significant difference compared with thinking in images and Abstract thinking(P>0.05).The relative power values of the three thinking forms had no significant difference,but had significant difference compared with common static state.The spatial distribution of concrete thinking showed lead O2 and lead T6 having high power.Conclusion From different angles and in varying degrees,α-frequency range shows the difference among the three thinking forms and independent characteristics of concrete thinking.
摘要:Objective To review the curative effect of Liangxue Tongyu Fang on acute-phase cerebral hemorrhage.Methods All patients(n=337) were randomly divided into treatment group(n=168) and control group(n=169).The two groups were given routine therapies of Western internal medicine,and treatment group was given Liangxue Tongyu Fang at the same time.A therapeutic course was 21 days.The comprehensive curative effect,diagnostic scores of stroke,absorption of cerebral hemorrhage,haematoma grading and scores of Glasgow outcome score(GOS) were counted and compared in two groups.Results The total effective rate was 88.0% in treatment group,which was higher than that(77.5%) in control group(P<0.05).The diagnostic scores of stroke and GOS decreased significantly in two groups after the treatment than before(P<0.01),which was more significant in treatment group than that in control group(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusion Liangxue Tongyu Fang can significantly improve the curative effect and outcomes in the treatment of acute cerebral hemorrhage.

摘要:Objective To study whether Daotan Tang can interfere carotid atherosclerosis through regulating intercellular adhesion molecular-1(ICAM-1) and p38 pathway.Methods New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into control group,model group and treatment groups with Daotan Tang in different doses [high-dose group(10 mL/kg),mid-dose group(8 mL/kg) and low-dose group(6 mL/kg) given intragastrically].The influences of Daotan Tang on the expressions of ICAM-1 and p38 were observed by using immunohistochemistry technique.Results In model group,the expressions of ICAM-1 and p38 showed strong positive in endochylema of endothelial cells of vessel wall,which were significantly higher than those in control group(P<0.01).The positive expressions of ICAM-1 and p38 were significantly lower in treatment groups than those in model group(P<0.01),and this inhibitory effect increased as the dose of Daotan Tang increased.The activity of p38 was significantly correlated to ICAM-1 level(r=0.757,P<0.01).Conclusion Daotan Tang can effectively inhibit the expressions of ICAM-1 and p38 in vessel endothelial cells in rabbits with carotid atherosclerosis.
摘要:Objective To discuss the mechanism of acupoint application of Xioachuan Gao in the prevention and treatment of asthma.Methods The asthma model was induced by egg albumin in rats.Xioachuan Gao was applied on double Feishu(BL13),double Xinshu(BL15) and double Ganshu(BL18).The changes of cytokines interferon-γ(IFN-γ)/interleukin-4(IL-4) of Th1/Th2 were observed in serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BLAF),and the pulmonary pathological changes were analyzed.Results Compared with model group,the cytokine IFN-γ of Th1 increased significantly(P < 0.05) in serum and BLAF and cytokine IL-4 of Th2 decreased significantly(P < 0.05) in Xiaochuan Gao group after the acupoint application with Xiaochuan Gao,and the pulmonary pathological changes showed that inflammatory infiltration and glandular hyperplasia were significantly alleviated.Conclusion The acupoint application with Xiaochuan Gao has a significant regulative effect on the disorder of Th1/Th2 and can relieve the symptoms of asthma.
摘要:Objective To observe the influence of Xingnaojing microemulsion after nasal administration on rats’behaviors and morphology of nasal mucusa,and develop new kind of compound preparation.Methods Health SD rats(n=125) were randomly divided into blank microemulsion group(blank group 1),blank solvent group(blank group 2),Xingnaojing microemulsion group(Xingnaojing group 1,84.4 g/L),Xngnaojing naristillae group(Xingnaojing group 2,84.4 g/L) and normal saline solution group(saline group,each n=25).Each group was given corresponding medicinal(50 μL) to every nostril each time and three times a day for 7 days.The samples of nasal septum mucosa were collected respectively after 1,4 and 7 days and 1 and 2 weeks after stoping medicinal administration for preparing paraffin sections,which were given HE staining and observed under light microscope.The ethological changes were observed in rats.Results After nasal administration of medicinals in all groups,the rats had behavioral reactions in varying degrees.The results of section observation showed that blank group 1,blank group 2 and Xingnaojing group 1 had certain irritating effect on nasal mucosa 7 days after medicinal administration and the irritation was equivalent(P>0.05),but the injury of nasal mucosa was recovered one week after stopping medicinal administration.The irritation to nasal mucosa was significantly higher in Xingnaojing group 2 than that in Xingnaojing group 1(P<0.05) after 7 days.Conclusion The medicinals in Xingnaojing have irritation to nasal mucosa in rats,while when Xingnaojing is prepared as microemulsion,the irritation is reduced and the injury of nasal mucosa is recovered after one week.
