ABSTRACT
This study aimed at explaining the TCM medication principles of breast cancer collected in CNKI by traditional Chinese medicine inheritance system (V2.0).TCM literatures over the treatments of breast cancer were collected and selected from CNKI.On this basis,a prescription database was built,and frequencies,medicine pattern and the rules of the prescriptions were analyzed using the data mining method of software integration to output new prescriptions according to the core medication group.As a result,one hundred and ninety-four TCM prescriptions for the treatment of breast cancer were screened out,involving 265 Chinese medicines,among which tonic medicines were used most frequently.Then,the commonly used medicines and rules were analyzed to achieve 4 new prescriptions.In conclusion,syndrome differentiation and treatment was primary in the TCM treatment of breast cancer,taking strenthening the body resistance as the main treatment with the adjuvent treatments of clearing away heat and toxic materials,promoting blood circulation to remove blood stasis and reducing phlegm and resolving masses to eliminate the cause,embodying the principle of integration with disease and syndrome in the treatment of breast cancer.

Medicine frequency and association rules among medicines in the prescriptions were confirmed. 12 medical combinations and 6 new prescriptions were mined.ConclusionThe data management platform and data mining methods can be applied in discovering the prescription patterns and medications rules ofJiaotong Xinshen treating principle in clinical application.
ABSTRACT
Nausea is special in the symptoms, and is different from hiccups and vomiting. The main symptom is that the patients throw up the indigested food from the stomach regularly--if the patients have a dinner, they will throw out it in the next morning, or if the patients have a breakfast, they will throw out it at night. Nausea is common in clinic, and different physicians may use different treatment methods for it. This disease also cannot be treated efficiently and may happen repeatedly with the western medicine. In this study, the composition principles of prescriptions in past traditional Chinese medicine for nausea were analyzed and summarized by using traditional Chinese medicine inheritance support system(V2.5), hoping to provide guidance for clinical drug use and summarize the basic rules for treatment of nausea.The prescriptions for nausea in "the prescription of traditional Chinese medicine dictionary" were selected, and the information was entered into the traditional Chinese medicine inheritance support system(TCMISS) to build a database. Data mining methods such as frequency statistics, association rules, complex system entropy clustering were used to analyze and summarize the composition principles of these prescriptions. The herb frequencies of the prescriptions were finally determined; herbs with higher use frequencies were obtained; and the association rules between herbs were found. 19 commonly used herb pairs, 10 core combinations and 10 newly developed prescriptions were found. The basic pathogenesis of nausea in traditional Chinese medicine is the weakness and coldness of spleen and stomach, and the Qi adverseness of stomach. Generations of physicians' main therapeutic method for nausea is mainly to warm the middle and invigorate the spleen, lower Qi and regulate stomach. The commonly used herbs for nausea are ginger, ginseng, large head attractylodes, tuckahoe, licorice, and appropriately supplemented with the herbs of eliminating dampness and eliminating phlegm, and regulating Qi-flowing for harmonizing stomach. In addition, it shall be treated according to the different accompanying syndromes such as phlegm, blood stasis, and yin deficiency.
ABSTRACT
This study was aimed to analyze the composition principles of prescriptions for sequela of apoplexy collected in the CNKI by the Traditional Chinese Medicine Inheritance Platform (TCMIP), in order to provide a reference for clinical selection of medication. Prescriptions for the sequela of apoplexy treatment in CNKI were collected. Based on the TCMIP, the medication rules of prescription were analyzed by data mining method after data entry. A total of 190 prescriptions involving 204 herbs for sequela of apoplexy treatment were screened and studied. The herbs for blood-activating andqi-tonifying were used with higher frequency. There were 36 commonly used herbal pairs. The herb pair of Dang-Gui(Radix Angelicae Sinensis) andHuang-Qi (Radix Astragali) was with the highest frequency. The herbal combination with three types of herbs wasDi-Long (Pheretima),Dang-Gui andHuang-Qi. The herbal combination with four types of herbs wasChuan-Xiong (Rhizoma Chuanxiong),Di-Long,Dang-Gui andHuang-Qi. The analysis on association rule showed thatChuan-Xiong,Dang-Gui,Tao-Ren (Semen Persicae),Hong-Hua(Flos carthami) andHuang-Qiwere often combined with each other. A total of 48 core combinations and 11 new prescriptions were mined. It was concluded that the prescriptions for sequela of apoplexy were mainly composed with herbs for blood-activating,qi-tonifying and collateral-dredging. According to the flavor and meridian tropism theory of Chinese medicine, the herbal medication selection in the prescription was mostly warm and hot in nature, sweet and pungent flavor, and the meridian tropism of the liver and spleen meridian.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the composing principles of herbs in prescriptions for treating nervous urinary frequency of children by using traditional Chinese medicine. Methods The prescriptions for treating nervous urinary frequency of children were searched in CNKI, VIP, Wanfang database to establish relevant database, and the composing principles were analyzed by using revised mutual information, complex system entropy cluster, and unsupervised hierarchical clustering in the TCM inheritance system after data entry. Results Based on the analysis of 117 entries in 63 cases of prescriptions, the frequency of 32 entries was more than 5 times;22 combinations contained 2 to 3 entries, including 10 entries in total 11 medicine association rules and their confidence coefficient were obtained, which leaded to 14 new core combinations and 7 new prescriptions. Conclusion Nervous urinary frequency of children is mainly treated with the tonification by Chinese herbal compound, in particular with the herbs which can nourish kidney and reduce urination. The new prescriptions were generated by TCM inheritance system, which need verification through clinical trials.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the composition principles of Chinese patent drugs containing Rehmanniae Radix;To provide reference for clinical application and new drug research and development.Methods Based on the software Traditional Chinese Medicine Inheritance Support System (V2.0), the authors built prescription database containing Rehmanniae Radix in National Standard for Chinese Patent Drugs (NSCPD). Then the authors adopted the statistical module by using data mining methods such as association rules and improved mutual information method, with a purpose to analyze the attending disease, combination rules and the core groups in prescriptions containing Rehmanniae Radix.Results In 357 prescriptions containing Rehmanniae Radix, 17 most commonly used drug combinations were mined. Meanwhile, two diseases, namely, insomnia and vertigo were chosen from the 22 diseases that Rehmanniae Radix was most frequently used to make deeper analysis, showing that Rehmanniae Radix can achieve different therapeutic effects through different compatibility.Conclusion Prescriptions containing Rehmanniae Radixin NSCPD mainly concentrate on clear heat and cool blood, and nourish Yin. The composition principles obtained from the research that Rehmanniae Radix used when curing different diseases can fully play the efficacy of RehmanniaeRadix and provide evidence for clinical scientific formulae.
