Chinese Medicine

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM,中国传统医学) is also well-known as Chinese Medicine(中医,zhōngyī). Based on the theory of yin-yang(阴阳)and five elements(五行), it also absorbs experience that how ancient Chinese people fight with disease and then develops into a broad range of medical care ways, including various forms of Chinese Herbal Medicine(草药cǎoyào), Cupping(拔火罐báhuǒguàn), GuaSha(刮痧guāshā),Acupuncture(针灸zhēnjiǔ),Moxibustion(艾灸àijiǔ), Massage(推拿tuīná按摩ànmó), pediluvium (足浴), Qigong(气功qìgōng)and Dietary therapy(食疗shíliáo).Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has a huge influence throughout East Asia since ancient time and now also in the western world. Generally speaking, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) can be divided into two main parts: Han medicine and ethnomedicine. The former one refers to a medicinal science which is created by the Han People; The latter one includes Zang Medicine(藏医Tibetan Medicine), Meng Medicine(蒙医Mongolian Medicine), Miao Medicine(苗医) and other ethnic medicine. However, when we mention Traditional Chinese Medicine or Chinese Medicine, most of the time, we just mean Han medicine.Traditional Chinese Medicine treats human body as an entity of qi(气), shape(形) and spirit(神). Then through four diagnostic methods to search for the cause of disease and analyze the change of the zang-fu, jingluo,qi,blood(血) and jinye, after that, a disease name will come out and suitable medical care way will be adopted.Important Terms and Concepts in Traditional Chinese Medicineyin-yang: 阴阳,yīnyáng, the concepts of yin and yang came from ancient Chinese people’s views of nature. In old times, they found many nature phenomenon in an against or conjoint relationship, for instance, heaven and earth, the sun and the moon, day and night, male and female,inside and outside, downward and upward, etc, so they drew a conclusion in a philosophy way----yin and yang, which was mentioned in Yi Zhuan and Dao De Jing of Laozi in the spring and autumn period and infiltrated nearly every aspect of Chinese traditional culture. Hence, yin and yang also extends to the various body functions: exterior and interior, cold and heat, vacuity and excess. The balance of yin and yang is a symbol of health.five phasesfive phases or five elements: 五行, wǔ xíng, is a view of matter in ancient China and used very often in Chinese philosophy ,Chinese medicine and divination. In old times, Chinese people thought nature was formed by five elements: metal, wood, water, fire and earth. With ups and downs of five elements, nature changed and people’s fates also were influenced. Talking about Chinese medicine, five elements indicates different organs. Because of the mutual generation and restriction relation between five elements, Chinese doctors believed one organ’s pathology would have great effect on other organs.Four Diagnostic Methods(四诊)----four must steps in Chinese MedicineWang: 望,wàng, to observe a patient’s growth, complexi on, coating on the tongue, expression and so on;Wen: 闻,wén, to listen to a patient’s voice, cough, breath and smell his halitosis and body odor;Wen: 问,wèn, to ask a patient about his symptom and medical history;Qie: 切,qiē, to feel a patient’s pulse and touch his abdomen to see whether there is a lump or not.zang-fu: 脏腑,zàngfǔ, a generic term for the vital organs of a human body in Chinese Medicine, they are different from anatomical organs. Ancient Chinese people divide internal organs into Fivezang(五脏)和Sixfu(六腑). Fivezang includes Heart, liver, Spleen, Lung and Kidney which have a function to store qi and jinye. While Sixfu refers to Gallbladder, Stomach, Large Intestine, Small Intestine, Urinary Bladder and Sanjiao which have essential functions consisting of transmitting and digesting substances like waste, food, etc.jingluo: 经络, jīng-luò, jīng are the meridians and luò are subsidiary channels. In Chinese Medicine, jīng-luò is not only to connect the interior of the body to the surface but also the channels for transporting qi and xue. The study of jīng-luò is a significant foundation for acupuncture and massage. According to the difference of size and shade, TCM identifies twelve “regular"(十二经脉), eight "extraordinary" meridians(奇经八脉) and fifteencollaterals(十五络脉).qi: 气,Qì, is a very common concept in Chinese philosophy, Chinese Fengshui, Taoism and Chinese Medicine. It is believed to be the basic substance to form a body and the most elementary energy for maintaining vital movement.TCM uses different names for identifying qi that runs inside of the blood vessels or circulates in the meridians. And the most important qi is “principal qi”(元气yuánqì )or “true qi”(真气,zhēnqì) that held by zangfu.jinye: 津液,jīnyè, bodily fluids, have functions of nurturing and moisturizing the different structures of the body, producing blood and harmonizing Yin and Yang. According to the character, distribution and function of bodily fluids, TCM divides them into Jin and Ye.If you are a fan of Chinese Kungfu, you will be familiar with these words, such as “principal qi”(元气yuánqì )or “true qi”(真气,zhēnqì), and RenduErmai(任督二脉,rèndūèr mài )---- two major channels of eight"extraordinary" meridians(奇经八脉).History of Traditional Chinese MedicineTraditional Chinese Medicine is a treasure that many Chinese people devote themselves into the development of TCM. As a resulit, many classics of China Medicine and famous doctors appeared in history.Tracing the source of Traditional Chinese Medicine, we found that it emerged in primitive society and the theories of Traditional Chinese Medicine were formed basically in the spring and autumn and warring states periods. At that time, anatomy arose; four diagnostic methods, cure ways like stone needles, acupuncture and moxibustion were adopted.In the Western Han Dynasty, medical professionals appeared;In the Eastern Han Dynasty, famous medical scientist Zhang Zhongjing summed up eight therapeutic methods; Hua Tuo got high reputation because of powder for anesthesia and created body building exercise----five-animal boxing. In the Tang Dynasty, Sun Simiao summarized forefathers’ theories and collected 5000 prescriptions. After Tang Dynasty, works about Traditional Chinese Medicine were spread to Koryo, Japan, Central Asia, Western Asia, etc. In the Song Dynasty, the central government set Hanlin medical school and the branches of medicine is almost completed. And the most important thing is, tújīng, as the first unified acupuncture point book was published. In the late Ming Dynasty, Li Shizhen wrote the book Compendium of MateriaMedica. Meanwhile, Meng Medicine and Zang Medicine were influenced by Han medicine. From the end of Qing Dynasty, modern medicine (Western medicine) were spread to China and impacted the development of Chinese Medicine.The Traditional Chinese MedicineThe Modern Chinese Medicine Shop ShopIn the modern time, Traditional Chinese Medicine has returned. When Sars swept China in 2003, Traditional Chinese Medicine was proved to be effective in precaution. And when H1N1 Flu came out in 2009, Chinese doctors used Chinese Remedy of Herbal Medicine to treat H1N1 Flu (Swine Flu).Clinical cases even stated clearly that Traditional Chinese Medicine had good function on the treatment of cancer. Of course, some times, patients need TCM and Western medicine work together.Chinese Medicine for disease prevention and treatment during trip。

222第15卷 第9期 2013 年 9 月辽宁中医药大学学报JOURNAL OF LIAONING UNIVERSITY OF TCMVol. 15 No. 9 Sep .,2013慢性重型肝炎(Chronic severe hepatitis,CSH)病变的实质是大块性(全小叶)或亚大块性新鲜的肝实质坏死,即脏之形体实质损坏。

主要是在慢性肝病(包括慢性肝炎病毒携带状态、轻到重度慢性肝炎和肝硬化)的基础上由于肝细胞大量坏死而导致严重肝功能损害的一种疾病。

其病情重、进展快、治疗难度大,病死率高达70.0%以上[1]。

我国慢性乙型重型肝炎死亡率占全部CSH 的96.8%[2],大都是由慢性乙型肝炎或乙肝后肝硬化发展而来,预后差,其各种并发症是导致病死率居高不下的重要原因。

目前临床上对于CSH 的治疗方法很多,但尚无明确的统一标准,主要包括以下几个方面。

1 西医治疗主要包括基础对症支持治疗,免疫调节治疗,抗病毒治疗及其他疗法。

1.1 基础对症支持治疗CSH 病变的实质是肝细胞大量坏死,以肝功能衰竭为主要临床表现,根据2006年中华医学会感染病学分会肝衰竭与人工肝学组、中华医学会肝病学分会重型肝病与人工肝学组制定的《肝衰竭诊疗指南》:CSH 临床上以血清总胆红素(TBIL)>171μmol/L(大于正常10倍)或每日上升≥17.1 μmol/L,有出血倾向,凝血酶原活动度(PTA)<40%为特征,临床表现主要为重度黄疸、黄疸进行性上升、极度乏力、极度食欲减退、恶心呕吐、腹水,甚则出血、肝昏迷。

因此治疗CSH 首先应运用促进肝细胞生长的药物,使得大量坏死的肝细胞得以尽快再生,目前临床上运用的药物主要有促肝细胞生长因子(HGF)、保肝解毒药物(还原型谷胱甘肽、阿思欣泰、多烯磷脂酰胆碱)、保肝退黄药物(思美泰)等。

其次应积极对症治疗,包括纠正低蛋白血症,补充白蛋白或新鲜血浆,并酌情补充凝血因子,缩短凝血酶原时间,并注意纠正水电解质及酸碱平衡紊乱,预防感染。

论中成药治疗原发性骨质疏松症临床应用-白津硕

论中成药治疗原发性骨质疏松症临床应用-白津硕

97第19卷 第8期 2017 年 8 月辽宁中医药大学学报JOURNAL OF LIAONING UNIVERSITY OF TCMVol. 19 No. 8 Aug .,2017骨质疏松症(Osteoporosis)是于1885年由Pommer 首先提出。

随着现代生理学和病理学的不断发展以及对骨质疏松症的逐步认识,现普遍认为骨质疏松症是以骨量减少、骨的微观结构退化为基本特征,致使骨的脆性增加、易于发生骨折的一种全身性骨骼疾病[1]。

随着人类社会的发展,就中国而言,我国2010年第6次全国人口普查结果表明,我国现有60岁以上人口占全国人口总数的13.26%,而65岁以上的人口占总人数的8.87%。

标志着我国现已成为人口老龄化国家[2]。

同时骨质疏松症也已经成为全球所共同关注的健康问题。

目前依据西医学对骨质疏松症的病因学认识,用药大致分为骨形成促进剂,其代表药物甲状腺激素;以及骨吸收抑制剂,其代表药物为双膦酸盐类药物、雌激素和选择性雌激素受体调节剂[3]。

依据现在较为公认的《中医虚证参考标准》[4]以及《中西结合诊治骨质疏松症》[5]对于骨质疏松症在中医分型的认识,暂认为骨质疏松症的发生多基于肾阳虚、肝肾阴虚、脾肾阳虚以及气血瘀滞为主,本文将依据中医独有的辨证分析理论以上述4种证型为分类原则,对现有临床应用的中成药加以分析略述,望对临床指导用药稍有增益。

下文中将对药物的药效成分加以分析,因此类药物成分中有相同的药物,故在论述时将不逐一赘加分析。

1肾阳虚型肾阳虚患者临床多表现为:腰背冷痛,酸软乏力,甚则驼背弯腰,活动受限,畏寒喜暖、遇冷加重、尤以下肢为甚,小便频多,舌淡,苔白,脉沉细或沉弦。

依据文献查阅对比发现,仙灵骨葆胶囊对于此证型应用较广,仙灵骨葆胶囊是国家已经批准上市治疗骨质疏松的苗药制剂,其组成成分主要有淫羊藿、知母、续断、丹参、补骨脂、地黄等6味中草药。

中医给我看病作文英语

中医给我看病作文英语Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has been an integral part of healthcare in China for thousands of years, and it continues to gain recognition worldwide for its holistic approach to healing. Recently, I had the opportunity to experience TCM firsthand when seeking treatment for a health issue. In this essay, I will share my experience of consulting with a TCM practitioner and the insights gained from this traditional form of medicine.Upon entering the TCM clinic, I was struck by the serene ambiance and the welcoming demeanor of the staff. The waiting area was adorned with soothing Chinese artwork and the faint scent of herbal medicine lingered in the air, creating a tranquil atmosphere. After a brief wait, I was ushered into a consultation room where I met the TCM practitioner, a knowledgeable and experienced individual who exuded a sense of calm and confidence.During the initial consultation, the practitioner askeddetailed questions about my medical history, current symptoms, lifestyle, diet, and emotional well-being. This thorough inquiry was unlike any other medical consultation I had experienced before. The practitioner explained thatin TCM, every individual is seen as unique, and the focusis not just on treating symptoms but on restoring balance to the body as a whole.After gathering information, the practitioner proceeded with a physical examination, which included palpation of my pulse and inspection of my tongue. In TCM, the pulse is believed to reflect the state of various organs and meridians in the body, while the tongue's appearance can provide insights into internal imbalances. This diagnostic approach fascinated me, as it seemed to offer a deeper understanding of my health beyond what modern medical tests could reveal.Based on the findings from the consultation and examination, the practitioner formulated a personalized treatment plan. This plan encompassed a combination of acupuncture, herbal medicine, dietary recommendations, andlifestyle adjustments. I was initially skeptical about acupuncture, having never tried it before, but the practitioner's gentle explanation of its benefits and the scientific evidence supporting its efficacy eased my apprehensions.The acupuncture session itself was a surprisingly relaxing experience. The insertion of thin needles at specific points on my body was virtually painless, and Ifelt a deep sense of calm and well-being during the treatment. The practitioner explained that acupunctureworks by stimulating the body's natural healing mechanisms and restoring the flow of Qi, or vital energy, along the body's meridians.In addition to acupuncture, I was prescribed a customized herbal medicine formula tailored to address my specific health concerns. The practitioner explained the properties of each herb and how they would work synergistically to promote healing and rebalance my body. I appreciated the emphasis on natural remedies and the avoidance of unnecessary medications or invasive procedures.Alongside the acupuncture and herbal treatment, the practitioner offered valuable lifestyle advice, including stress-reduction techniques, dietary modifications, and gentle exercises such as Qi Gong or Tai Chi. These holistic recommendations highlighted the interconnectedness of physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being in TCM philosophy.Over the course of several weeks, I diligently followed the TCM treatment plan. Gradually, I noticed improvementsin my symptoms, increased energy levels, and a greater sense of overall vitality. What struck me most was not just the alleviation of my physical complaints but the profound sense of balance and harmony that TCM had brought to my life.Reflecting on my experience with TCM, I gained a newfound appreciation for the depth and wisdom oftraditional healing practices. The personalized approach, emphasis on natural remedies, and focus on restoring balance resonated with me on a profound level. While modernmedicine certainly has its merits, I believe that integrating elements of TCM into healthcare can offer holistic benefits that complement conventional treatments.In conclusion, my journey with TCM was enlightening and transformative. It opened my eyes to a different perspective on health and healing, one that values the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit. I am grateful for the opportunity to have experienced the wisdom of TCM and would encourage others to explore its potential intheir own wellness journeys.。

中国传统医术的英语作文

中国传统医术的英语作文Chinese traditional medicine, you know, it's like this ancient treasure trove of health wisdom passed down from, like, centuries ago. Picture this: herbs, acupuncture, cupping, all that jazz. It's not your typical pop-a-pill-and-you're-good kinda deal. Nah, it's more like this holistic vibe, where they're all about balancing your yin and yang, whatever that means.So, imagine you're feeling all out of whack, maybe your chi's not flowing right or something. Instead of hitting up your local pharmacy for some over-the-counter meds, you might wander into a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) clinic. And let me tell you, it's a whole different worldin there. You got these doctors in long robes, examining your tongue like it's some crystal ball or something,trying to decode the mysteries of your body.And then there's acupuncture. Yeah, those tiny needles that they stick all over your body. Sounds kinda scary,right? But people swear by it. They say it's like tapping into your body's natural energy flow, releasing all those blockages and stuff. I mean, I've never tried it myself, but hey, to each their own, right?Oh, and don't even get me started on cupping. You've probably seen those crazy photos of people with these big red circles all over their backs. It's like they got attacked by a giant octopus or something. But apparently,it's supposed to, like, suck out all the toxins from your body and improve your circulation. Sounds intense, but hey, if it works...And let's not forget about the herbs. TCM is all about using nature's pharmacy to heal what ails you. Ginseng, ginger, goji berries – you name it, they got it. It's like a whole other grocery list of remedies, except instead of eating them, you're brewing them into some funky-tasting tea.But here's the thing about Chinese traditional medicine – it's not just about treating the symptoms, it's aboutgetting to the root cause of your health issues. It's about finding harmony within yourself and with the world around you. And whether you buy into all that yin-yang stuff or not, you gotta admit, there's something kinda beautiful about that approach to healing.。

中医治疗新冠的英语作文

中医治疗新冠的英语作文

中医治疗新冠的英语作文In the face of the global pandemic caused by COVID-19, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has emerged as a valuable resource in the fight against the virus. TCM, with its rich history and holistic approach to healthcare,offers a unique perspective in the treatment of COVID-19, complementing and, in some cases, enhancing Western medical practices.The cornerstone of TCM is the belief that health and disease are manifestations of the harmony or imbalance between the body's qi (vital energy) and its surrounding environment. COVID-19, according to TCM theory, is often viewed as a result of an external pathogenic factor invading the body and disrupting its internal balance. Therefore, TCM treatment focuses on strengthening thebody's immune system, clearing pathogenic factors, and restoring the overall harmony of qi.Herbal medicine, a key component of TCM, plays a significant role in COVID-19 treatment. Herbal formulas, often tailored to the individual patient's symptoms and constitution, aim to alleviate symptoms such as fever,cough, and fatigue. These formulas may include herbs that have antiviral, immunomodulatory, and anti-inflammatory properties, which can help the body fight the virus and reduce the severity of the disease.In addition to herbal medicine, TCM practitioners also utilize acupuncture and other non-pharmacological techniques in the treatment of COVID-19. Acupuncture, by stimulating specific points on the body, is believed to regulate qi flow, enhance immune function, and relieve symptoms associated with the virus. These techniques, combined with lifestyle recommendations such as dietary modifications and exercise, aim to create a comprehensive approach to healing.The integration of TCM into COVID-19 treatment has been met with varying degrees of acceptance and skepticism. While some studies have shown promising results in terms of symptom relief and recovery time, the scientific evidence supporting TCM's effectiveness in treating COVID-19 isstill evolving. However, the holistic and individualized approach of TCM offers a valuable complement to Western medicine, particularly in cases where patients may notrespond well to conventional treatments or where symptoms are mild.It's worth noting that TCM should not be viewed as a standalone treatment for COVID-19 but rather as a complementary approach that can be integrated into a comprehensive healthcare plan. TCM practitioners often work closely with Western doctors to provide integrated carethat takes into account both the biological and psychological aspects of the disease.In conclusion, Traditional Chinese Medicine offers a unique and valuable perspective in the treatment of COVID-19. By focusing on strengthening the body's immune system and restoring internal balance, TCM can help alleviate symptoms, improve recovery time, and enhance the overall quality of life for patients with the virus. While the scientific evidence supporting its efficacy is still developing, the holistic and individualized approach of TCM remains a promising avenue in the fight against COVID-19. **中医治疗新冠的作用**面对由新冠病毒引起的全球大流行病,中医(TCM)已成为抗击病毒的重要资源。

中医在疫情中的作用英语作文

中医在疫情中的作用英语作文The Role of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the PandemicTraditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has played asignificant role in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. As a holistic approach to healthcare, TCM has offered a complementary perspective to the Western medical model, providing valuable insights and treatments that have contributed to the overall management of the crisis.One of the key contributions of TCM in the pandemic has been its emphasis on preventive measures. TCM practitioners have long advocated for maintaining a balanced and harmonious state of the body, known as "Qi," to enhance the body's natural ability to resist disease. During the pandemic, TCM has provided guidance on lifestyle adjustments, such as dietary recommendations and herbal remedies, to strengthen the immune system and promoteoverall well-being.Moreover, TCM has been actively involved in thetreatment of COVID-19 patients. In China, TCM has been integrated into the national COVID-19 treatment protocols,with TCM therapies being used in conjunction with Western medical interventions. This integrated approach has shown promising results, with some studies suggesting that TCM-based treatments can alleviate symptoms, reduce theseverity of the disease, and potentially shorten the recovery time for COVID-19 patients.One of the notable TCM-based treatments is the use of herbal formulas. These formulas, developed based on the principles of TCM, have been studied for their potential to address the specific symptoms and pathological patterns associated with COVID-19. For instance, the "Lianhua Qingwen" formula, which contains a combination of herbs such as honeysuckle, forsythia, and ephedra, has been widely used in China and has shown positive results in clinical trials.Furthermore, TCM has also contributed to the understanding of the underlying mechanisms of COVID-19. By analyzing the disease patterns and symptoms from a TCM perspective, researchers have identified potential therapeutic targets and developed innovative TCM-based strategies for disease management. This holistic approachhas the potential to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the complex interplay between the virus, the human body, and the environment.In addition to its clinical applications, TCM has also played a role in the psychological and emotional well-being of individuals during the pandemic. TCM emphasizes the importance of maintaining a balanced state of mind and emotions, which can be particularly relevant in times of stress and uncertainty. TCM-based practices, such as acupuncture, tai chi, and meditation, have been utilized to help individuals cope with the mental and emotional challenges brought about by the pandemic.However, it is important to note that the integration of TCM and Western medicine in the pandemic response has not been without its challenges. Differences in epistemological frameworks, research methodologies, and regulatory systems have sometimes led to tensions and misunderstandings. Nonetheless, efforts are being made to bridge these gaps and foster greater collaboration and mutual understanding between the two medical systems.In conclusion, the role of traditional Chinese medicine in the COVID-19 pandemic has been multifaceted and significant. From preventive measures to complementary treatments, TCM has offered a unique perspective and valuable contributions to the overall management of the crisis. As the world continues to navigate the challenges posed by the pandemic, the integration of TCM and Western medicine holds the promise of a more comprehensive and effective approach to healthcare.中医在疫情中的作用中医在应对新冠疫情中发挥了重要作用。

传统的中国疗法英语作文Traditional Chinese Therapy。

Traditional Chinese therapy, also known as TCM, has a history of thousands of years and is considered one of the most effective and comprehensive systems of health care in the world. It encompasses a range of traditional practices and treatments, including acupuncture, herbal medicine, massage (tui na), cupping, and qigong. These therapies are based on the principles of yin and yang, the five elements, and the flow of qi, or vital energy, through the body.Acupuncture is perhaps the most well-known and widely practiced form of TCM. It involves the insertion of thin needles into specific points on the body to stimulate the flow of qi and restore balance to the body's energy. This can help to alleviate pain, improve circulation, and promote overall well-being. Many people find acupuncture to be a safe and effective treatment for a wide range of conditions, including chronic pain, migraines, and anxiety.Herbal medicine is another cornerstone of TCM. Practitioners use a wide variety of plants, minerals, and animal products to create customized herbal formulas that are tailored to each individual's specific needs. These formulas can be taken in the form of teas, powders, or pills, and are used to address a wide range of health concerns, from digestive issues to respiratory problems to hormonal imbalances.In addition to acupuncture and herbal medicine, TCM also includes a number of other therapeutic modalities. Tui na, or Chinese massage, is a form of bodywork that involves the manipulation of the body's soft tissues to promote healing and relaxation. Cupping is a technique in which heated glass cups are applied to the skin to create a vacuum, which can help to alleviate muscle tension and improve circulation. Qigong, a form of gentle exercise and meditation, is also an important part of TCM, as it is believed to help balance the flow of qi and promote overall health and vitality.One of the key principles of TCM is the idea oftreating the whole person, rather than just the symptoms of a particular condition. This means that TCM practitioners take into account not only a person's physical symptoms, but also their emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. By addressing the underlying causes of illness and promoting overall balance and harmony within the body, TCM can help to prevent disease and promote long-term health and wellness.In recent years, TCM has gained popularity and recognition in the West, as more and more people seek out alternative and holistic approaches to health care.

中医治疗理念英语作文Title: Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment Philosophy。

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has a rich history and a unique treatment philosophy that has been practicedfor thousands of years. This holistic approach tohealthcare emphasizes the balance between the mind, body, and spirit, viewing the body as a complex system of interconnected parts. TCM treatment principles are based on ancient Chinese philosophical concepts such as Yin and Yang, Qi (vital energy), and the Five Elements. In this essay, we will explore the fundamental principles of TCM treatment philosophy and how they guide practitioners in diagnosing and treating illnesses.Central to TCM treatment philosophy is the concept of Yin and Yang, representing the dualistic nature of the universe. Yin and Yang are opposite forces that complement each other and are present in all aspects of life,including the human body. Health is believed to be achieved when Yin and Yang are in harmony, while illness occurs when there is an imbalance between these two forces. TCM practitioners aim to restore balance by identifying the underlying cause of the imbalance and prescribing treatments to harmonize Yin and Yang.Another key concept in TCM is Qi, often described as vital energy or life force. Qi flows through the body along meridians, or energy pathways, and is essential for maintaining health and vitality. According to TCM theory, blockages or disruptions in the flow of Qi can lead to illness and discomfort. TCM treatments such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, and Qi Gong are designed to restore the smooth flow of Qi and promote healing.The Five Elements theory is another fundamental aspect of TCM treatment philosophy. This theory categorizes the various phenomena in nature and the human body into five elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. Each element is associated with specific organs, seasons, emotions, and qualities. TCM practitioners use the Five Elements theoryto understand the interconnectedness of different organ systems and diagnose imbalances that may manifest as physical or emotional symptoms. For example, a person with symptoms of anger and irritability may be diagnosed with Liver Qi stagnation, according to the Five Elements theory.In addition to these core principles, TCM treatment philosophy also emphasizes the importance of individualized care and prevention. TCM practitioners take into account the unique constitution and lifestyle of each patient when designing treatment plans. Rather than simply treating symptoms, TCM focuses on addressing the root cause of illness and restoring the body's innate ability to heal itself. Through dietary therapy, lifestyle modifications, and mind-body practices, patients are empowered to take an active role in their own health and well-being.One of the strengths of TCM treatment philosophy is its versatility and adaptability. While rooted in ancient wisdom, TCM continues to evolve and integrate modern scientific knowledge and techniques. In recent years, there has been growing interest in evidence-based research tovalidate the efficacy of TCM treatments and understandtheir mechanisms of action.

中国中医英文介绍中国中医英文介绍Traditional Chinese Medicine ("TCM") is an integral part of Chinese culture. Ithas made great contributions to the prosperity of China. Today both of TCM and western medicine are being used in providing medical and health services in China. TCM, with its unique diagnostic methods, systematic approach, abundant historical literature and materials, has attracted many attentions from the international community. TCM is well recognized for its remarkable effectiveness in off setting the side effect caused by the toxic and chemical treatment of cancer cases in the western medical system.In China, TCM is under the administration of State Administration of TCM and Pharmacology. TCM and its development are regulated. National strategies, law and regulations governing TCM are now in place to guide and promote the research and development in this promising industry.TCM is defined as a medical science governing the theory and practice of traditional Chinese medicine. It includes Chinese medication, pharmacology/herbalogy, acupuncture, massage and Qigong.Hospitals in China are classified as specialized in western medical system, TCMor both. TCM is now available to 75% of the areas in China. TCM has been veryeffective in the treatment of diseases such as cardio-cerebro-vascular, immunogenic, tumors, bone fracture, etc. Scientificresearch and clinic experiments in TCM are continuously progressing. Successes have been made in many of the areas such as incirculating paths of meridians; in Zheng-syndrome, in diagnosticindexes; in therapeutic principles, in healing emergency patients with shock, acuteDIC, acute myocardial infarction and acute renal failure. For treatment of bone fracture, method is adopted based on the theory of combination of mobilization and immobilization. Non-antibacterial compound prescriptions are used successfully in treatment of bacterial infection. In treatment of cancers, Fuzheng Guben compound prescriptions, though devoidof inhibitory effects on cancer cells, could cause the shrink of the mass of cancer. TCM provides a non-surgical approach to the treatment of acute abdomen.CuppingCupping the source ofCupping therapy is a valuable heritage of Chinese medicine, one in Chinese Han people to use a long time.

• 253 •Chin J Integr Med 2012 Apr;18(4):253-255China has a long history of using Chinese medicine (CM) to treat chronic liver diseases. Today, CM is still one of the major medicines in China, and is also being used more commonly in Western countries. Chronic viral hepatitis B (CHB) is a global health problem. China has the largest population affected by this viral hepatitis. CHB is caused by infection with the hepatitis B virus (HBV). Chronic infection with HBV can signi fi cantly impair the quality of life and life expectancy of patients because of the potential for disease progression, which can lead to fi brosis, cirrhosis, liver failure and hepatocellular carcinoma. CM is used widely in CHB treatment in China as well as other countries. Clinical surveys revealed that over 90% of patients with CHB in China received CM therapy. More than 80% of natural products thought useful for management of liver diseases are Chinese herbs and/or their extracts, and over 80% of the Chinese publications regarding hepatitis and hepatic fi brosis are CM-related. These are far higher proportions than those for Western medicines used in China. In Western medicine, interferon (IFN) and lamivudine (LAM) or other nucleoside analogues (e.g. adefovir dipivoxil, tenofovir, entecavir) are the currently approved remedies for hepatitis B.Regarding the treatment CHB with CM, major questions are "Are CMs effective therapeutic agents for CHB? If yes, how to explain the large population infectedby HBV in China?" and "If they are, why are so many millions of Chinese chronically infected with the HBV?" There are both medical and cultural dimensions to these questions. In recent decades, a number of clinical trials have been performed in China to assess the efficacy and safety of CMs for CHB infection. Studies have looked at the effects of CMs on CHB, both alone, and in combination with Western medicines. Results have been compared with those from studies employing only conventional Western therapies.To understand better the current patterns of use of CMs in management of CHB in China, in 2010, we searched the database of the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI, from January 1998 to June 2008) and PubMed (January 1966 to June 2008) using the key words CM, herb, plant, herbal extract and hepatitis B. The reports of CM clinical trials that included prospective randomized clinical trials (RCTs), non-randomized clinical trials (non-RCTs), and summaries of clinical experience were selected for analysis. The clinical trials included single blind, double blind or not blinded studiesFEATURE ARTICLEChinese Medicine for Treatment of Chronic Hepatitis BGuqi WANG, Lingyi ZHANG, and Herbert L. Bonkovsky©The Chinese Journal of Integrated Traditional and Western Medicine Press and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2012Carolinas Medical Center, Charlotte, NC, 28203 USACorrespondence to: Dr. Guqi WANG, Tel: 704-355-8051, Fax: 704-355-1679, E-mail: guqi.wang@ DOI: 10.1007/s11655-012-1064-4ABSTRACT Contemporary Western medicines approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B (CHB), although available in China, have high costs, or major side effects and limited effectiveness. Research efforts have focused on looking for natural products as alternative medicines with low cost and good safety for CHB treatment. Chinese medicine (CM) has ancient, time-honored theories about methods of diagnosis and treatment for liver diseases. In recent decades, a large number of clinical trials and pre-clinical studies, which were performed in China and other countries, indicated that CM has potential bene fi t in several aspects of the treatment of CHB, e.g., anti-in fl ammatory, anticancer, antioxidant, immunomodulating, anti fi brosis, and antiviral. However, there are many concerns regarding the study design and the quality of clinical trials. Furtherlarger, stringently designed, double-blind, placebo control, randomized clinical trials and long-term follow-up are needed to provide conclusive evidence of their ef fi cacy and safety. Components of CM deserve further study in pre-clinical models of HBV infection and in clinical trials world-wide.KEYWORDSchronic hepatitis B, natural products, Chinese medicine, Western medicine, clinical trialDr. Guqi WANG• 254 •Chin J Integr Med 2012 Apr;18(4):253-255in humans that involved CMs only versus IFN or LAM, and CMs plus IFN or LAM versus IFN or LAM treatment. We also statistically determined which individual herbs were used most frequently in CM formulations used to treat CHB. The results of our analysis were published recently in Hepatology(1) under the title "Contemporary Clinical Research of Traditional Chinese Medicines for Chronic Hepatitis B in China: An Analytical Review". Our major findings were as follows: (1) CMs reduced serum HBeAg and normalized serum ALT better than IFN, and were equivalent to IFN in clearing serum HBV DNA; (2) CMs plus IFN significantly reduced serum HBeAg, improved clearance of serum HBV DNA, and improved normalization of serum ALT, compared to IFN; (3) CMs were equivalent to LAM in reducing serum HBeAg, clearing serum HBV DNA, and normalizing serum ALT; (4) CMs plus LAM significantly reduced serum HBeAg, and were better at clearing the serum HBV DNA and normalizing serum ALT compared to LAM; (5) There were no serious adverse effects of CM reported in the clinical trials cited. Although the composition of traditional medicines in the CMs differed among RCTs, approximately 60% of the herbs were homologous. Our major overarching conclusion was that CMs seem effective as alternative remedies for patients with CHB, but they require further evaluation in well-designed, adequately-powered prospective, controlled randomized trials.It has to be acknowledged that some of the studies were poorly designed, and the data analysis and presentation were of low quality. Overall, the methodological quality of the clinical trials was not high. 70% of the RCTs included in our review were scored as having mediocre methodological quality. No trial was identified as a multi-center, large-scale, prospective, double-blinded, controlled randomized trial. Furthermore, only 24% of the RCTs performed long-term follow up studies. The possibility of publication bias in the reporting of results of clinical trials is always of concern. The purported effectiveness of CM formulations on CHB could be exaggerated if only positive results were published in the literature. Although the funnel plots in our study suggest that there was not major publication bias, there are still many other concerns remaining that include the following: the importance that investigators submit, and that journal editors publish, negative, as well as positive results; whether the RCTs were done by CM practitioners or Western medicine practitioners, and were approved by Chinese medical administration; how commonly Chinese Western medicine practitioners use those CMs in their clinical practice for HBV; there were many CM formulations used in these RCTs, what is the common standard or criterion to select the formulation for the RCT? The quality assurance and quality control of the CM formulations used in the clinical trials were generally not studied; there were few data available regarding the safety of the CM formulations used in these RCTs, although no side effects were reported in these studies, which suggest the formulations used were safe. All these concerns and the rather low quality of the RCTs make it difficult for clinicians to draw firm conclusions about the usefulness of CM.Our study also revealed that the CMs used for HBV treatment in different formulations are very similar. The most commonly used herbs include Radix Astragali (Huangqi), Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae (Danshen), Rhizoma Polygoni Cuspidati (Huzhang), and Herba Hedyotis diffusae (Bai Hua She She Cao). Interestingly, milk thistle (Shui Fei Je), which is widely used for viral hepatitis and other liver diseases in Europe and North America, was not ranked in the top 20 most commonly used clinical herbs, suggesting that CM practitioners choose herbs for HBV mainly based on CM theory. Like CMs, milk thistle and its extracts (e.g., silymarin) have been used for medicinal purposes since the time of ancient Greece, and continue to attract attention for their touted liver-health properties. Although some studies reported successful treatment of patients infected with HBV with milk thistle, these finding were not replicated in higher quality clinical trials.(2) The U.S. Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality reported in a systematic review of clinical trials of milk thistle that milk thistle improved liver function in people with mild liver disease but did not work as well for those with severe liver disease such as cirrhosis. According to the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, milk thistle may benefit the liver by protecting and promoting the growth of liver cells, fighting oxidation (a chemical process that can damage cells), and inhibiting inflammation in laboratory animal studies.The art of Chinese medicine emphasizes the whole human body as a unit, and then uses a formula with several herbs, which are selected based upon the individual properties of the herbs and their purported ability to work in a complementary fashion to treat a disease in numerous domains. Hundreds of herbs have• 255 •Chin J Integr Med 2012 Apr;18(4):253-255been used in hundreds of dissimilar formulas of CMs for hepatitis B treatment. For example, typical strategies of CM treatment in CHB are (1) to relieve the symptoms and improve life quality of the patients; (2) to ameliorate liver infl ammation; (3) to ameliorate hepatic fi brosis; (4) to improve immune function; and (5) to regulate lipid metabolism. The purported health benefi ts are believed to be due to the intricate combining and interaction of these ingredients, and the prescription according to the individual patient's "pattern" (Zheng). Radix Astragali is mostly used to improve immune activities and replenish qi. Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae is used to promote blood fl ow and remove blood stasis with anti-fi brosis; Rhizoma Polygoni Cuspidali is used to remove heat, dampness and toxic substances from the body and to promote blood circulation with anti-virus. Herba Hedyotis diffusae is used as an antipyretic, detoxicant, diuretic and anticancer agent. However, from a Western viewpoint of clinical analysis or research design, the time-honored CM approach complicates attempts to determine which ingredients are responsible for particular physiological effects. Moreover, the unique theoretical system and protocols of CM have created obstacles to communication with Western investigation. It is understandable that the protocol and standard of Western medicine may not be applicable to CM clinical trial.(3) Nevertheless, end-points of trials for treatment of CHB are similar: amelioration of hepatic infl ammation and fibrosis; reduction of levels of HBV in liver and serum; prevention of hepatocellular carcinoma; and improvement in and prolongation of life of good quality.Having been used for thousands of years in China, some healing properties of herbs are being confirmed by modern scientific methods. For example, one of the extracts from Radix Astragali, TAT2 (cycloastragenol) is reported to boost telomerase production and help immune cells fi ght HIV.(4) However, many Chinese herbs and herb formulations have still not been studied and examined by contemporary scientific methods. There is no convincing evidence from recent basic and clinical research to conclude that CM has better antiviral activity than IFN, LAM, and other modern antiviral drugs. Even though CM physicians and researchers suggest that CM promises some therapeutic effects in the treatment and prevention of liver fibrosis consequent to HBV infection by either enhancing immune activity or reducing liver inflammation,(5) some of the results are still based on the evaluation using CM protocols and the improvement in symptoms perceived by participants. Whether the hepatitis B patients receiving CM treatments have reduced risk to develop liver fi brosis and cirrhosis require further studies with long-term follow-up.According to the data of the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 2 billion people worldwide have been infected with HBV, and more than 350 million have chronic (long-term) liver infections. There is no specific treatment for acute hepatitis B. Although the virus can be cleared in some patients by antiviral drugs, many strains are resistant to treatment, the drugs are expensive, and the side effects are serious. Research efforts have focused on looking for alternative therapies to curb symptoms with minimal side effects. The advantages of CM, such as time-honored of use, multiple targets, integrative medicine therapy (integrating with Western medicine), and affordable cost make them worthy of further rigorous scientific study, especially in China.(6) The possible antiviral, antiinflammatory, and antifibrogenesis mechanisms of these CMs deserve additional study with modern scientific technologies. Clarification of adverse effects and high quality clinical trials are required. Such studies will provide important information for drug development in combating viral hepatitis.REFERENCESZhang L, Wang G, Hou W, Li P, Dulin A, Bonkovsky HL.1.Contemporary clinical research of traditional Chinese medicines for chronic hepatitis B in China: an analytical review.
