ABSTRACT
The causes of flaccidity syndrome are various. YE Tian-shi's book of Lin Zheng Zhi Nan Yi An combined the causes of flaccidity syndrome, and focused on pulsus paradoxus less qi. On the basis of common treatment methods for flaccidity syndrome, such as clearing heat in lung, treating Yangming and tonifying liver and kidney, this book created the treatment of polsus paradoxus, expanded TCM ideas and methods for treatment of flaccidity syndrome, which made great contributions to TCM treatment for flaccidity syndrome.
ABSTRACT
According to ZHANG Zhong-jing, the main reason for the stroke was the exogenous wind, and the most important pathogenesis was the deficiency of qi and exogenous pathogenic factor. Three methods are stressed to cure the stroke: the equal treatment focused on the liver and the spleen, the use of tranquilizing medicine to stop the wind, and the use of strengthening body resistance to get rid of the exogenous pathogenic factors. While YE Tian-shi considered that the main reason for stroke was the deficiency of liver-yin and kidney-yin. The chief pathogenesis in stroke was the yang transforms to the interior wind. There are three therapeutic features in the treatment: the equal treatment focused on the liver and the spleen, the synchronous treatment of the liver and stomach, and select the medicine according to the four seasons climate. ZHANG Zhong-jing's theory of exogenous wind and YE Tian-shi's theory of yang transforms to the interior wind not only reflect the different angles in treatment for stroke, but also reflect the development of pathogenesis of stroke in the history.
ABSTRACT
Objective Taking medical cases in Lin Zheng Zhi Nan Yi An Shi as examples to analyze the network relationship between the syndromes and prescriptions through building a medical case model forecasting medication via artificial neural networks for the syndromes and prescriptions in medical cases. Methods The study screened medical cases in Lin Zheng Zhi Nan Yi An Shi, and standardized and entered the data with Python language programming. PyBrain module was used to build and train a network model. The MatPlotLib module drew the error curve and the predicted fit curve, and evaluated the sensitivity and specificity. NetworkX module realized the visual expression of the network relationship between the syndromes and prescriptions, and analyzed the medicine within the prescriptions and compatibility relationship and the relationship between the pathogenesis and pathology. Results The sensitivity of the constructed medical case network model was 96.15% and the specificity was 75.00%. The visual mapping of the network relationship between the syndromes and prescriptions and the analysis on single, single group, and multi-angle were realized. Conclusion Neural network is capable to simulate the relationship between syndromes and prescriptions of medical knowledge. The visual combination and manifestation of network can provide a feasible solution for the knowledge discovery in medical literature.
ABSTRACT
The therapeutic method of defensive,qi,nutrient and blood phases in Treatise on Epidemic Febrile Diseases is the signif icant achievement of YE Tian-shi in the process of studying febrile disease.Among the total,the syndrome of defensive phase should be treated on basis of syndrome differentiation,if only using diaphoresis without syndrome differentiation will result in damaged yin and replenished pathogen and deteriorated syndrome.It has important theoretical and clinical meaning to know law and characteristics of febrile disease in lung-wei phase by understanding'applying diaphoresis to treat syndrome of defensive phase'.
ABSTRACT
Through researching YE Tian-shi’s theory source,the point of therapeutic methods of Qi collateral asthenia syndrome and collaterals diseases,attaching importance to physique factor and treating in accordance with seasonal conditional,this thesis expatiated intensively YE Tian-shi’s theory of therapeutical principle and medication trait for Qi collateral diseases.Then enumerated the prescriptions in common usage for Qi collateral diseases which were well-chosen from YE Tian-shi’s medical record.In a way,this thesis embodied the academic thought of paying particular attention to Qi collateral therapeutic methods in YE Tianshi’s theory very well.
