Screening of Core Prescriptions for Tremors Based on Integrated Strategy of "Empirical Prescriptions in Ancient Books-medical Cases by Prestigious Doctors-computational Analysis" / 中国实验方剂学杂志

ObjectiveBased on the integrated strategy of "empirical prescriptions in ancient books-medical cases by prestigious doctors-computational analysis"， this study aims to explore and analyze the prescriptions and medical cases for treating tremors in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， predict their efficacy， and obtain the core prescriptions for treating tremors in TCM， providing references for clinical application and new drug development. MethodThe Chinese Medicine Prescription Database and the China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI） were searched for relevant prescriptions and medical cases for treating tremors in TCM to establish a database of prescriptions for tremors. The Traditional Chinese Medicine Inheritance Computer System （V3.0） was used to analyze and explore the medication rules including drug frequency， properties， flavor， meridian tropism， and pharmacological effects， as well as core drugs and formula associations. A multi-target drug efficacy prediction platform based on network robustness was used to evaluate the predicted efficacy of the core prescriptions obtained. Based on the integration of ancient prescriptions， prestigious doctors' medical cases， and network analysis results， the priority level of the developed prescriptions was determined through comprehensive evaluation. ResultA total of 81 ancient prescriptions were screened， involving 246 drugs， and 171 prescriptions were screened from prestigious doctors' medical cases， involving 278 drugs. The frequently used TCM drugs were mostly warm in nature and sweet in flavor， mainly acting on the liver， spleen， and kidney meridians. In terms of efficacy， they were mainly effective in tonifying deficiency， soothing liver and extinguishing wind， activating blood and resolving blood stasis， clearing heat， and resolving exterior. Through association rules and K-means clustering， the core prescriptions were composed of high-frequency drugs such as Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma， Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma， Astragali Radix， Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma， Angelicae Sinensis Radix， Poria， Gastrodiae Rhizoma， and Uncariae Ramulus Cum Uncis. Drug combinations mainly focused on tonifying Qi and nourishing blood， with the additional functions of calming wind and dredging collaterals. Clustering analysis of core prescriptions from ancient prescriptions and prestigious doctors' medical cases， as well as multi-target drug efficacy prediction， showed that Combination 1 had the highest disturbance score on the disease network. Furthermore， comparative analysis revealed consistent results with both the analysis of ancient prescriptions and prestigious doctors' medical cases， indicating its optimal development potential based on theoretical inheritance and empirical practice. In comparison， Combinations 3， 2， and 4 were less utilized in contemporary clinical practice， with lower rankings in network disturbance scores， suggesting that their development value still warranted further exploration. ConclusionTCM clinical treatment of tremors emphasizes the regulation of the liver， spleen， and kidney. In line of syndrome differentiation， drugs potent in soothing liver， extinguishing wind， activating blood， and resolving blood stasis are added based on deficiency-tonifying drugs. The core prescriptions based on Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma， Angelicae Sinensis Radix， Paeoniae Radix Alba， Astragali Radix， Poria， and Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma （combination 1） have the highest potential development value. The integrated strategy "empirical prescriptions in ancient books-medical cases by prestigious doctors-computational analysis" can be used for the screening of candidate prescriptions for new TCM drugs.

Analysis of the Collation Records for Proof-Reading Method in Song's Edition of Bei Ji Qian Jin Yao Fang(Invaluable Prescriptions for Emergencies) / 广州中医药大学学报

With reference to Xin Diao Sun Zhen Ren Qian Jin Fang,the Xindiao's edition of Bei Ji Qian Jin Yao Fang(Invaluable Prescriptions for Emergencies)which was the popular edition before official block printing of the Northern Song Dynasty),we analyzed the collation for proof-reading method in Song's edition of Bei Ji Qian Jin Yao Fang(Invaluable Prescriptions for Emergencies)printed by Bureau of Correcting Medical Books in Northern Song Dynasty.The results showed that there are many omissions and erroneous annotations in the collation records of the Song's edition,indicating that the judgment of the scholarly value of textual difference and the criteria of selecting and omitting the annotations of textual difference in the Song's edition require further studies.Some of the collation records in the Song's edition were consistent with those of the Xindiao's edition,suggesting that the Xindiao's edition was referenced during the collation by the officials of the Song Dynasty.In compiling Bei Ji Qian Jin Yao Fang,the original edition and the collated edition were not defined by the officials of the Song Dynasty,multiple hand copies in Tang Dynasty were collected for reference,and multiple medical records in Tang Dynasty and before Tang Dynasty were referenced.For the proofreading work of the Bureau for Revising Medical Books was in charge by scholars and Confucian ministers,we proposed that the complexity during compiling the book and the uncertainty of the text should be paid more attention.It is necessary to further clarify the basic issues such as the origin,basic structure,references and citation methods of the Song's edition,so as to provide reference for understanding the characteristics of the edition correctly and making effective use of the literature.

A Preliminary Study on the Construction and Visualization of Knowledge Graph for the Ancient Chinese Medical Book Ling Shu / 广州中医药大学学报

Objective To explore the construction and visualization for knowledge graph of Ling Shu(Spiritual Pivot),with a view to providing ideas for the structured storage and display of the theoretical knowledge of the ancient Chinese medical books.Methods Using the professional idea of constructing knowledge graphs for reference,text mining technology was applied to construct the thesaurus,and then word division,entity recognition,and relationship extraction for the original text of Ling Shu were performed to get the elements of knowledge graph construction.The graph database Neo4j was used for the storage and query of the knowledge graph,and then the visual display of the knowledge graph was achieved.Results The 1 216 high-quality words consisting of the thesaurus of Ling Shu were obtained,and the construction of the knowledge graph of the theory of Ling Shu was realized.The constructed knowledge graph basically displayed the traditional Chinese medicine theories such as the correlation of visceral manifestations with essence qi,and the relationship between emotions and the five-zang organs described in Ling Shu,which made the retrieval and utilization of the related entities and relationships possible,and provided ideas for the structured storage and display of the theoretical knowledge of the ancient books of Chinese medicine.Conclusion The knowledge graph construction technology can be used to obtain the Chinese medicine theoretical knowledge graph of Ling Shu,and to display the knowledge connections of yin-yang and the five elements,and the internal organs and meridians expressed in the Ling Shu.The construction of the knowledge graph and its storage in the graph database enable the knowledge graph involved in the text of Ling Shu to be displayed in the form of visualized semantic network graph,and also make the embedding of other search systems such as the semantic search and semantic wiki possible,which will be helpful for the development of Chinese medicine intelligent medical services.

Effects of a Free Electronic Book on Systemic Anatomy with Schematics on Student Learning / Efectos de un Libro Electrónico Gratuito sobre Anatomía Sistémica con Esquemas sobre el Aprendizaje de los Estudiantes

SUMMARY: For students in schools of nursing, health sciences, and premed, a systemic anatomy textbook with minimized contents, schematics, and mnemonics may be helpful for learning an otherwise often unappealing subject. In this study, we assess the educational effect of such a textbook. Schematic drawings, anatomy comics, and easily readable text were generated for the chapters of the book (e.g., skeletal system, articular system). The book was presented without charge via a webpage (anatomy.co.kr). Nursing students who were exposed to the book and those who were not exposed were compared; a survey was administered to those who were exposed. The students who read the presented textbook were more knowledgeable than those who used other textbooks. Hours spent reading the presented textbook and scores of fill-in-the-blank questions were positively correlated. In general, the students replied that the presented textbook was helpful for learning systemic anatomy. The systemic anatomy textbook accompanies preexisting textbooks in regional anatomy, neuroanatomy, and the histology, all of which are written by the same authors. We suggest anatomy instructors generate their own books with unique style to enrich the student learning process.

Para los estudiantes de las escuelas de enfermería, ciencias de la salud y premedicina, un libro de texto de anatomía sistémica con contenidos, esquemas y mnemónicos minimizados puede ser útil para aprender un tema que de otro modo sería poco atractivo. En este estudio, evaluamos el efecto educativo de dicho libro de texto. Se generaron dibujos esquemáticos, cómics de anatomía y texto de fácil lectura para los capítulos del libro (por ejemplo, sistema esquelético, sistema articular). El libro se presentó sin costo a través de una página web (anatomy.co.kr). Se compararon los estudiantes de enfermería que estuvieron expuestos al libro y los que no estuvieron expuestos. Se administró una encuesta a quienes estuvieron expuestos. Los estudiantes que leyeron el libro de texto presentado tenían más conocimientos que aquellos que usaron otros libros de texto. Las horas dedicadas a leer el libro de texto presentado y las decenas de preguntas para completar espacios en blanco se correlacionaron positivamente. En general, los estudiantes respondieron que el libro de texto presentado fue útil para aprender anatomía sistémica. El libro de texto de anatomía sistémica acompaña a los libros de texto preexistentes de anatomía regional, neuroanatomía e histología, todos escritos por los mismos autores. Sugerimos que los instructores de anatomía generen sus propios libros con un estilo único para enriquecer el proceso de aprendizaje de los estudiantes.

A Simple and Consistent Rule for Easy Learning of Neuroanatomy: Three Neurons of Afferent Nerves / Una Regla Simple y Consistente para Facilitar el Aprendizaje de la Neuroanatomía: Tres Neuronas de los Nervios Aferentes

SUMMARY: Many students regard neuroanatomy as a terrifying subject due to the complicated neuronal connections. Purpose of this research was to promote the easy and logical learning of neuroanatomy by systematizing a rule "three neurons of afferent nerves." The rule, in which the second neuron decussates and reaches the thalamus, was applied to as many structures as possible. The three neurons are drawn in a constant pattern to intuitively demonstrate the rule. The rule could be applied not only to the spinothalamic tract, medial lemniscus pathway, sensory cranial nerves (visual pathway, trigeminothalamic tract, taste pathway, and auditory pathway) and ascending reticular activating system, but also to the pontocerebellum (afferent to cerebrum), basal nuclei (direct pathway), and limbic system (medial limbic circuit). Exceptionally, some afferent nerves do not exactly follow the suggested rule. This simple rule, which corresponds to many pathways of the neuroanatomy, is expected to make the learning by novice students easier.

Muchos estudiantes consideran la neuroanatomía como un tema aterrador debido a las complicadas conexiones neuronales. El propósito de esta investigación fue promover el aprendizaje fácil y lógico de la neuroanatomía mediante la sistematización de una regla "tres neuronas de los nervios aferentes". La regla, en la que la segunda neurona se decusa y llega al tálamo, se aplicó a todas las estructuras cuando esto fue posible. Las tres neuronas se dibujan en un patrón constante para demostrar la regla intuitivamente. La regla podría aplicarse no solo al tracto espinotalámico, la vía del lemnisco medial, los nervios craneales sensoriales (vía visual, tracto trigeminotalámico, vía gustativa y vía auditiva) y el sistema de activación reticular ascendente, sino también al pontocerebelo (aferente al cerebro), núcleos basales (vía directa) y sistema límbico (circuito límbico medial). Excepcionalmente, algunos nervios aferentes no siguen exactamente la regla sugerida. Se espera que esta simple regla, que corresponde a muchas vías de la neuroanatomía, facilite el aprendizaje de los estudiantes principiantes.

Effects of an easy neuroanatomy book with schematics on student learning / Efectos de un libro sencillo de neuroanatomía con esquemas sobre el aprendizaje de los estudiantes

SUMMARY: Numerous students perceive neuroanatomy as a particularly difficult subject due to its overwhelming complexity. Therefore, a neuroanatomy book that concentrates on easy-to-read stories with schematics rather than exhaustive details has been published. This study evaluates the effect of a trial of the new neuroanatomy book on student learning. From the book, a printout on the brainstem and cranial nerve was extracted. Medical students read the printout, and subsequently were examined on their knowledge of and interest in neuroanatomy. Students who read the extract answered examination questions relatively well and were more interested in neuroanatomy. The printout seemed to enhance the knowledge and concentration of the students. After grasping the fundamental information in the book, students are expected to be able to learn advanced concepts comfortably and confidently. In addition, the book with its concise and simple content is suitable not only for short- duration neuroanatomy courses but also for self-learning.

Muchos estudiantes perciben la neuroanatomía como un tema particularmente difícil debido a su abrumadora complejidad. Por lo tanto, se ha publicado un libro de neuroanatomía que se concentra en historias fáciles de leer con esquemas en lugar de detalles exhaustivos. Este estudio evalúa el efecto de una prueba del nuevo libro de neuroanatomía en el aprendizaje de los estudiantes. Del libro, se extrajo una impresión sobre el tronco encefálico y los nervios craneales. Los estudiantes de medicina leyeron la copia impresa y, posteriormente, se les examinó su conocimiento e interés por la neuroanatomía. Los estudiantes que leyeron el extracto respondieron relativamente bien a las preguntas del examen y estaban más interesados en la neuroanatomía. La impresión parecía mejorar el conocimiento y la concentración de los estudiantes. Después de comprender la información fundamental del libro, se espera que los estudiantes puedan aprender conceptos avanzados con comodidad y confianza. Además, el libro con su contenido conciso y simple es adecuado no solo para cursos de neuroanatomía de corta duración, sino también, para el autoaprendizaje.

Using the method of textual research, this study systematically reviewed ancient and modern literature to conduct a historical and textual analysis of Zhulingtang, including its origin, composition, dosage, processing, decoction methods, efficacy, and applications. A total of 733 pieces of relevant information related to Zhulingtang were collected, involving 206 ancient Chinese medical texts, with 52 of them providing detailed records of the composition, dosage, processing, and efficacy of Zhulingtang. The results of the analysis showed that Zhulingtang was composed of Polyporus, Poria, Alismatis Rhizoma, Asini Corii Colla, and Talcum. Polyporus and Poria should be used without their peels, Asini Corii Colla should be stir-fried with clam powder, and Talcum should be ground into powder or soaked in water. Based on the conversion of ancient and modern dosages, Polyporus, Poria, Alismatis Rhizoma, and Talcum, 15.63 g for each one, were decocted with 800 mL of water to 400 mL. Then the drug residue was removed, and 15.63 g of Asini Corii Colla was added to the drug juice for melting by heating. The decoction should be taken warm, 140 mL each time, three times a day. Zhulingtang has the effects of promoting diuresis, nourishing yin, and clearing heat, and it is mainly used to treat water-heat combination syndrome, characterized by symptoms such as difficult urination, fever, and thirst. Modern research indicates that Zhulingtang is commonly used to treat diseases such as cirrhotic ascites, chronic glomerulonephritis, nephrotic syndrome, diarrhea, and urinary tract infections. This study provides key information about the famous formula Zhulingtang, which can serve as a reference for further development and research on its application.

Life cycle analysis comparison between textbooks and e-books in Philippine public schools

BACKGROUND@#Early studies show e-reading to be better in some impact assessment indicators. However, newer studies on Information and Communication Technology (ICT) devices shows various role of user behavior, device properties, and media properties in calculated environmental impacts. There is a need to study scenarios of media use such as printed media and its digitized forms to determine use scenarios that would minimize environmental impacts.@*OBJECTIVES@#The objectives of the study are the following: to model the life cycle from cradle to use phase of reading one textbook in both print and e-book format and to compare the impact of reading textbooks in print with impact of reading textbooks in E-book format.@*METHODS@#A functional unit of 280-page textbook read in 1 year was the basis for modelling life cycle from cradle to use phase of both print and e-book formats of a textbook. Processes related to paper production, printing and manufacture are based on United States Life Cycle Inventory Database. Processes related to E-book reading are taken from the Life Cycle Analysis of Sony Z5 mobile Phone. Normalized outputs on impact assessments were compared using Tools for Reduction and Assessment of Chemicals and Other Environmental Impacts (TRACI 2.1).@*RESULTS@#Use of Mobile Phone to read e-books is better in 4 out of 7 impact categories (Acidification Potential, Human Health-Cancer, Human Health – non-Cancer and Ozone Depletion) than reading using traditional textbooks. Reading traditional books is better in 2 out of 7 impact categories (Eutrophication and Freshwater Ecotoxicity). Global warming potential has comparable values between reading in print and in soft copy. @*CONCLUSION@#Depending on impact assessment of concern, either reading using mobile phone or thru printed textbook would give a better impact. It is also suggested to create hybrid activities that could model scenarios using both printed and soft copies of textbooks.
