ABSTRACT
[Objective] Analyze the discussion of Qi and Qi transformation in Huangdi Neijing, therefore to give insight into the Qi Theory of TCM. [Methods] Analyze articles about Qi and Qi transformation in Huangdi Neijing, as well as comments from doctors of all dynasties, to summerize the understanding on Qi and Qi transformation of Huangdi Neijin. [Result] In the whole book of Huangdi Neijing, there are 19 chapters named after Qi, 1700 (2997) characters of Qi are mentioned, and there are 7 discussions upon Qi transformation. The Qi mentioned in Huangdi Neijing can be material, or functional, or be able to transform. The conception of Qi transformation includes six parts: the transformation among Yin and Yang, among the five elements, and the growth and transformation among all kinds of essences, the transportation, nutrition and transformation among all kinds of matters, as well as the transportation of Qi and the transformation of five elements' motion and six kinds of natural factors.[Conclusion] Qi transformation is mentioned in all but a few chapters in Huangdi Neijing. Everything, from matters growing to turning into essences is actually Qi transformation. In Huangdi Neijing's view, Qi transformation is the fundamental of all matters coming into being, and the fundamental to stay healthy, therefore the fundamental of preserving health, diagnosis and treatment.
ABSTRACT
Objective] The article analyzed the application of qi transformation for diagnosis and treatment in clinic from four aspects: theory, method, formula and herbs. [Methods] Wang Kungen is instructor of the fourth,fifth project of academic experience inheriting the old Chinese medicine experts. Director Wang believes that the Qi transformation is the fundamental of everythings,including the humanbody.To analyze the relationship between qi transformation and theory-method-formula-herbs in clinical TCM based on the study of Huangdi Neijing and textual works of famous Chinese physicians. [Result]Qi transformation is the foundation of life, therefore the foundation of health. Abnormal Qi transformation leads to process and development of diseases, so the key to the treatment is to achieve the condition of“seizing the mechanism of disease and keeping qi in harmony”through all methods, rather than holding on to specific treatments like acupuncture and herbs. [Conclusion]Qi transformation is not only an important content of TCM theory system, but also the key point of treatment in clinic, and the core clinical theory of Director Wang.
ABSTRACT
Qi She Pill (QSP) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) prescription that has been used in treating cervical spondylosis radiculopathy for many years. In this study, a simple and sensitive method using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) on a reverse-phase C18 column was developed for the simultaneous determination of the 19 major components in QSP. We found that the optimum mobile phase for gradient elution was 0.1% formic acid and methanol. The correlation coefficients of all calibration curves were greater than 0.99. Recoveries measured at three concentration levels varied from 95.43% to 102.35%. Relative standard deviations of intra- and inter-day precisions were less than 4.45%. After successfully validating our method, we then applied it to the quantification of 19 components in QSP products to show that this method provides a new standard in quality assessment of TCM prescriptions containing multiple bioactive components.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the characteristics of differential diagnosis in medical record of ZuiHuaChuang, so that to improve level of medical diagnosis and treatment in clinical work. [Methods] Analyze and research 58 cases of medical records which involved in differential diagnosis in the book, to summarize the characteristic of differential diagnosis inmedical record of ZuiHuaChuang. [Results] There are 58 cases in 101 cases medical records in the whole book written by WangYu in Qing Dynasty. The differential diagnosis methods base on perimal symptoms, concomitant symptoms and pulse diagnosis, and the pulse diagnosis is attributed to the most importantly. The differential diagnosis based on pulse diagnosis is the key charcteristic ofmedical record of ZuiHuaChuang.
ABSTRACT

It was treated with WuLin San most of time, and used the method ofinvigorating spleen to eliminate dampnessto regulate the constitution.[Conclusion] The character of diagnosis and treatment ofexcessive fluid zheng in medical record of ZuiHuaChuang including:1. diagnosed by pulse diagnosis, especial y combined with symptoms,2.Treat with WulinSan,and emphasize regulation of constitution after erasing excessive fluid.
ABSTRACT
[Objective]The relationship of inheritance and innovation is one of most important problems of TCM.Wind of historyis a historical theory pro-posed by Liu Xianxin. We use the theory to analyze the inheritance and innovation in the history of TCM, so that we can identify the relationship of inheri-tance and innovation of TCM under current background. [Methods]Based onWind of historytheory, we try to analyze classic innovated case in the history of TCM.After that, we analyze the current relationship and controversy of inheritance and innovation of TCM. [Results]We find that al innovation comes from the interaction of inheritance and the Wind of history. Different innovation comes from the interaction of different problems and different wind. [Conclusions]We need not make innovation as the purpose or requirements imposed on TCM. If we have better inheritance, innovation is just there when we confront new problem.
ABSTRACT
[Objective] A randomized control ed trial of traditional Chinese medicine recipe Gujing Tang treatment of premature ejaculation was studied. [Methods] The subjects: 60 patients with premature ejaculation form department of andrologic outpatient, the patients were randomly divided into two groups, Integrated TCM-WM Groups and paroxetine Groups. 30 cases in each group. The Integrated TCM-WM Groups were given Gujing Tang , with paroxetine 10mg, oral, Qd at the same time; The paroxetine groups were given paroxetine 10mg, oral, Qd. Both groups were treated for 3 months. Ejaculation status was evaluated at the timepoint:before treatment, 3 months after treatment,and fol ow-up evaluation of six months after treatment. Evalu-ate parameter including Intravaginal ejaculation latency(IELT) and score of sexual function and Chinese patients with premature ejaculation evaluation -5 (CIPE-5). [Results] After 3 months, both groups were significantly improved, and Integrated TCM-WM Groups improved more significantly. After 6 months of fol ow-up, IELT, motion times and CIPE-5 score of Integrated TCM-WM Groups decreased slightly, but stil had significant difference com-pared to before treatment, and this parameter of Paroxetine groups was returned to the level of baseline, and had no significant difference compared with baseline. [Conclusion] Traditional Chinese medicine Recipe Gujing Tang combined with paroxetine, could not only have rapid onset, enhance patient confidence, improve the psychological state, but also improve the long-term efficacy and avoid recurrent disease after treatment, therefore can achieve ef-fective treatment of premature ejaculation.
