ABSTRACT
With Zang-Fu organs, meridians, Qi and blood, and body fluid as the physiological and pathological basis, traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) theory is guided by the holistic concept and characterized by syndrome differentiation. It has made significant contributions to human health maintenance and disease prevention. Modern TCM preparation is developed on the basis of inheriting and developing TCM preparations using modern science and technology under the guidance of TCM theory. At present, the incidence and mortality of common tumors are increasing. TCM has rich clinical experience in the treatment of tumors. However, in the current stage, some TCM preparations have a tendency to deviate from the guidance of TCM theory. With the modernization of TCM, it is worth considering how TCM theory guides modern TCM preparations. Taking tumor treatment as an example, this paper introduced the development of TCM nano-preparation under the influence of modern nanotechnology, summarized the research on the development of modern TCM nano-preparation from the aspects of TCM holistic concept, TCM treatment principles, and TCM theory application, and discussed the application prospect of TCM nano-preparation in overall therapy, drug pairing, carrier selection, and targeted substance selection under the guidance of TCM theory. This paper provides new references for further developing the combination of tradition and modernization of TCM nano-preparation.

Objective To explore the effect of constitution nursing care by Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) theory on urinary salt scaling in patients with ureteral stents.Methods Thirty patients with ureteral stents after ureteroscopy were recruited in the study.The TCM constitution Scale was used to perform the TCM constitution categorization.Then constitution nursing by TCM theory was done based on the symptoms and diagnosis.The urinary salt scaling in the patients was explored. Result In the 30 patients,the incidence of urinary salt scaling were 26.7% (8/30)and no urinary tract infection occurred. Conclusion The nursing by TCM theory can relieve the clinical symptoms by indwelling ureteral stents and reduce the incidence of urinary salt scaling.
ABSTRACT
[Objective]Research on treatment based on syndrome differentiation of palmar hyperhidrosis(PH), for the purpose of systematically and comprehensively understanding PH, and to improve clinical curative effect. [Methods]The pathological basis, clinical manifestation and therapeutic principle and methods are systematically summarized.[Result]PH is relevant to the cold, heat, deficiency and excess of taste, disorder of Qi and blood of heart, and the block of damp and hot. Exuberant heat in Yangming, deficiency cold of spleen and stomach, and food stagnation can lead to PH. Malnutrition of heart spirit and dysfunction of heart caused by insufficiency of heart yin also contribute to PH. Another factor is the block of damp-heart. The treatment for PH caused by exuberant heat in Yangming is Baihu Decoction or Chengqi Decoctions. PH caused by deficiency cold of spleen and stomach can be cured by Lizhong Decoction. The treatment for PH caused by food stagnation is Baohe Wan. Insufficiency of heart yin and disharmony between Ying and Wei need to nourish blood for tranquillization and harmonize Ying and Wei. The block of damp or damp-heat leading to PH need drug resolving dampness with aromatics or clearing heat and promoting diuresis for cure. [Conclusion]PH has a complex pathogenesis, which needs treatment based on syndrome differentiation.

ABSTRACT
Objective]To investigate academic thoughts of Prof. Yan Dexin in spleen and stomach syndrome treatment.[Methods]The paper summarized the academic origin, academic thoughts as well as practical treatment cases of Prof. Yan Dexin ’s spleen and stomach syndrome treatment theory. [Results]The main points of Prof. Yan’s academic thought on spleen and stomach therapy has succeeded and developed the therapy of Menghe physician, which includes an emphasis on spleen Qi rise and stomach Yin drop, Qi of spleen and stomach regulation, special attention on the function of the stomach-yang and spleen-yin, an advocation ofspleen leading four organs, and therapy design from spleen with an ingenious use of atractylodes rhizome, Atractylodes and Zhizhu pill. [Conclusion] Professor Yan Dexin developed his unique theoretical system in spleen-stomach diseases therapy on basis of the experiences of spleen and stomach disease treatment from ancient physicians, which is instructive for later physicians.
ABSTRACT
"Correspondence between nature and human" is the basic thought of ancient Chinese philosophy. It had different meanings at different historical period. In Shang and Zhou dynasty, nature and human were combined together by sorcery; in Han dynasty, "qi" became the link of nature and human; and in Song and Ming dynasty, the link turned to the "Li".The concept of "correspondence between nature and human" improved the formation TCM theory and influenced its development for all the time.
ABSTRACT
The medical historical data in the "Left Biography" show the formation and developments of TCM basic theory in the Spring and Autumn Period.The article exposes traditional culture is the foundation to develop and carry TCM from the relative items concerned in "Left Biography" on Yingyang Five Elements,causa morbi and mechanism,healthy-keeping,disease-prevention,treatment principle and methods.

ABSTRACT
Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) injection,which plays a unique role in the clinical treatment,is Chinese original dosage form.But in recent years due to its quality problems or unscientifically clinical use,some adverse reactions have reported,even several injections had serious adverse reactions.So how to develop TCM injection becomes one of the topics the public and scholars most concerned about.Therefore,the three "bottleneck" problems of TCM injection on the current development,which are the material basis and TCM theory,clinical efficacy and safety,and also quality control,were analyzed and discussed in the article.Then the countermeasures were proposed and provided ideas for future research and development of TCM injection.
ABSTRACT
TCM theory of manifestation and root cause which originates in Nei Jing is valuable to guide the prevention and treatment of malignant tumor.It is a specific method for research and analysis of manifestation and essence of diseases.This theory focuses on the diagnosis of tumor,proposes that etiological diagnosis of tumor is the most important.The carcinogenic factors,yin-yang disharmony and visceral dysfunction are the root causes and the formation of tumor and exterior pathogens are the manifestations.The theory emphasize on the diagnosis and treatment before the formation of tumor,dialectic relationship between the tumor and the system,strengthening the body resistance and driving away evil(treating both manifestation and root cause of disease).On the basis of human,improvement of survival period and quality of life is more important than tumor size;prevention is more important than treatment.
ABSTRACT
"Framework" and "framework theory" were proposed several decade years ago, and has been widely used in multidisciplinary research. The main purpose of this paper is to identify the concept and connotation of "framework theory" and to discuss the key role of it in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) research, so as to improve integrality and logicality of the theoretic system of TCM. TCM, as a independent science, ought to have the theory and practical framework which can reflect its characteristic and developmental rule. In this paper, we started from the research thought of "framework", introduced the definition, connection and difference between "framework" and "framework theory", analyzed the conditions and methods of establishing a framework, and discussed the applications of "framework" in TCM research.
