摘要:The current research on the dosage of Chinese medicinal are mostly focused on the dose of a single medicinal,while the dosages of whole decoctions were seldomly mentioned. The authors have studied the dosages of whole decoctions,numbers of medicinal and quantity of added water of formulas in Waitai Miyao. The conclusion is as follows: the general dosage range of whole decoctions are from 131 g to 331 g,numbers of medicinal were from 4 to 8,and the range of quantity of added water is from 1 200 mL to 1 800 mL. This calculated result indicates that the characteristics of specialized medicinal with powerful actions in Shanghan Zabing Lun have been inherited by most physicians in the Han and Tang dynasties. The quantity of added water depends on different formulas and different medicinal for the best curative effect and maximum decocted volume.

摘要:From the angle of theory of fluid being related to humor,the paper has discussed the essence of the theory of lung and large intestine being interior-exteriorly related. The lung is the upper source of water and has the function of regulating waterways,and large intestine is an organ being in charge of transportation and governs body fluid. They are closely correlated to and supplement each other. Discussion on the theory of fluid being related to humor will deepen understanding of the connotation of the theory of lung and large intestine being interior-exteriorly related,and will enhance its application in clinic.

摘要:Embodied mind,which prevalent gradually since the 1980s,is the second generation of ideological trend in Western cognitive science. Under the premise of monism,its core idea can be summarized in three characteristics of the mind,including embodiment,situatedness and enaction. Concrete thinking theory is an innovative viewpoint about thinking outlook on development in TCM scientific field in the 1990s,based on the overall concept of "holism of body and mind",this theory expanded the concept of thinking and put forward a new pathway of the thinking development process. In this 21stcentury,if we ponder deeply over the intersection of embodied mind and concrete thinking from the perspective of cognitive science,maybe we can get important inspiration about how to explore mind theory more deeply under the background which Eastern and Western culture are infiltrated mutually.
摘要:There are a lot of Chinese medicinal named in the word-form of"× qi",and the plants named in this word-form mostly refer to medicinal plants. The medicinal parts of these plants are mainly root and hair. In the producing areas of the plants named as " × qi",the pronunciations of qi and xu are very similar to each other,so qi with fewer strokes is becoming more prevalent. The word-form of " × qi"is complicated in naming,borrowing of characters and developing of pronunciation.

摘要:Objective To explore the mechanism of moxibustion in intervening inflammatory injury of Helicobacter pylori( Hp) gastritis and protecting gastric mucosa. Methods Health SD rats( n = 50) were randomly divided into blank group,Hp model group,acupoint moxibustion group,non-acupoint moxibustion group and electroacupuncture group( each n = 10). The rat model of Hp gastritis was established by intragastrically giving of Hp. The content of tumor necrosis factor-α( TNF-α), interleukin-1β( IL-1β),interleukin-12( IL-12) and interleukin-10( IL-10) in gastric homogenate were detected by applying enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay( ELISA). Results The pretreatment of moxibustion reduced gastric mucosal injury index( P < 0. 01),decreased the content of TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-12( P < 0. 05 or P < 0. 01),and increased the content of IL-10( P < 0. 01) compared with Hp model group,acupoint moxibustion group and electroacupuncture group. Conclusion The pretreatment of moxibustion can relieve the gastric mucosal injury of Hp gastritis,and the mechanism may be related to inhibiting the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines( TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-12) and improving the release of anti-inflammatory cytokines( IL-10) for relieving the inflammatory reaction and protecting gastric mucosa.
摘要:Objective To observe the influences of effective monomers in Huoxue Huayu Fang on the proliferation of activated renal fibroblast cell line( NRK-49F) and mesangial cell line( HBZY-1). Methods NRK-49F and HBZY-1 were cultured in vitro and then divided into blank group,model group( TGF-β 1,5 mg/L),high-dose group( TGF-β 1,5 mg/L + Chinese medicinal,10 mg/L) and low-dose group( TGF-β 1,5 mg/L + Chinese medicinal,1 mg/L). NRK-49F and HBZY-1 were digested with 205 g / Ltrypsin-0. 2 g / L EDTA for making single cell suspension,and the suspension was inoculated to 96well plates. After the synchronization of cell growth,TGF-β 1 was added for 24 hours,then the cultural medium was removed,and finally the monomers of Chinese medicinal was added. After culturing for 24 hours,the effects of Chinese medicinal on NRK-49F and HBZY-1 were observed by using methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium test( MTT), and the secretion of TGF-β was observed by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay( ELISA). Results Compared with blank group,TGF-β 1-stimulating factor improved the activation of NRK-49F and HBZY-1( P < 0. 05) and secretion of TGF-β( P < 0. 01). After adding the monomers of Chinese medicinal,the proliferation of activated NRK-49F and HBZY-1 and secretion of TGF-β were inhibited( P < 0. 05 or P < 0. 01). Salvianolic acid B had the best inhibitory effect,and followed by salvianolic acid A,chrysophanol and rhein. Conclusion The monomers of Huoxue Huayu Fang can inhibit the proliferation of activated NRK-49F and HBZY-1 and prevent renal fibrosis,and the possible mechanism is related to the inhibition of TGF-β secretion.

摘要:Objective To observe the influences of Huangqi( Radix Astragali seu Hedysari) on serum liver fibrosis markers and expressions of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1( TIMP-1) and matrix metalloproteinase-1( MMP-1) in liver tissues in rat model of immune liver fibrosis induced by pig serum. Methods Wistar rats( n = 40) were randomly divided into normal group,model group,Huangqi group and colchicinum group. Excepting normal group,other groups were injected intraperitoneally sterile pig blood twice a week for 12 weeks. Meanwhile,normal group and model group were intragastrically given distilled water every day,and other groups were intragastrically given corresponding drugs. The changes of liver function,liver fibrosis markers including serum hyaluronic acid( HA),laminin( LN),collagen Ⅳ( C Ⅳ) and pro-collagen Ⅲ( PC Ⅲ),and TIMP-1 and MMP-1 levels were detected by using biochemical assay,radioimmunoassay and ELISA. Results The levels of serum HA and C Ⅳ,and level of TIMP-1 decreased significantly,and the level of MMP-1 in increased significantly in Huangqi group compared with those in model group( P < 0. 01). Conclusion Huangqi can effectively reduce the levels of serum indexes of liver fibrosis,and remarkably ameliorate the degree of liver fibrosis. The mechanism may be related to that it can increase MMP-1 expression, decrease TIMP-1 expression, improve extracellular matrix( ECM) degradation and decrease ECM synthesis,so as to suppress the accumulation of ECM and ameliorate the fibrosis degree of liver tissues.

摘要:Objective To discuss GRACE predictive integrals of all-cause mortality in the emergency patients with chest impediment,and to improve the ability to identify risk degrees. Methods The patients with chest impediment( n = 381) were given syndrome differentiation and divided into qi stagnation and blood stasis group,turbid phlegm obstruction group,yin and blood deficiency group and yang qi deficiency group. The related items of GRACE predictive integrals of all-cause mortality in the patients were recorded. All data were statistically analyzed. Results The average GRACE predictive integral was( 163. 28 ± 38. 69) in turbid phlegm obstruction group,( 167. 41 ± 35. 66) in qi stagnation and blood stasis group,( 199. 80 ± 42. 13) in yang qi deficiency group and( 192. 88 ± 43. 70) in yin and blood deficiency group. GRACE predictive integrals were higher in yang qi deficiency group and yin and blood deficiency group than those in turbid phlegm obstruction group and qi stagnation and blood stasis group respectively( P < 0. 01). The ascending levels of WBC and CK-M were risk factors for increasing mortality in the patients with yang qi deficiency syndrome. Conclusion The most dangerous syndrome is yang qi deficiency syndrome in the patients with chest impediment and heart pain. The increased levels of WBC and CK-MB indicate the dead risk in the patients with yang qi deficiency syndrome,which should be paid more attention to.
