RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the cultural construction of Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) hospitals in Hunan province, for reference in their cultural construction.Methods:A questionnaire was designed according to TCM Hospital Cultural Construction Guidelines by the National Traditional Chinese Administration.From May to June 2020, the questionnaire was used to survey the present situation, existing problems and development suggestions of TCM cultural construction at TCM hospitals of and above the county level in Hunan province. The data were analyzed by descriptive analysis.Results:The survey covered 117 public TCM hospitals in the province and 87 questionnaires were recovered, a rate of 74.4%. In terms of cultural construction in these institutions, various programs were in place at a relatively high proportion in the core cultural value construction. The development of behavioral norms teaching and inheritance was in place at a relatively low proportion, namely 78.8% at tertiary TCM hospitals, 51.8% at secondary TCM hospitals, and only 16.7% at secondary level-B TCM hospitals. In terms of environmental image construction, various programs were in place at a relatively high proportion, yet focusing on themed cultural wall posters culturol bulletin board and other forms of display. At present, the main problems were insufficient funding(86.9%) and talents(82.1%).Conclusions:TCM hospitals in Hunan province highly value the construction of cultural core value and environmental image, but their development in the code of conduct system and other connotation was weak.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the mechanism ofTiaozhong Huatan Anshen Mixture (THAM). Methods A total of 200 healthy Kunming mice were randomly and equally divided into first, second, third and fourth major groups. Each major group was further equally divided into blank group, control group and high, medium, low dose THAM groups. Each group was given an equal volume of NS, estazolam, or high, medium, or low dose THAM by gavage for 7 d. For the first major group, the changes in number of spontaneous activities after administration were evaluated. For the second major group, 60 min after administration, each group was given pentobarbital sodium (30 mg/kg body weight, minimum dose for all mice sleeping) by intraperitoneal injection, and the sleep time was recorded. For the third major group, 60 min after administration, each group was given pentobarbital sodium (15 mg/kg body weight, maximum dose for 90%-100% of all mice having righting reflex) by intraperitoneal injection. The number of mice falling asleep was recorded, and the sleep rate was calculated. For the fourth major group, mice were sacrificed after continuous administration 15 d. They were quickly removed brain tissue;homogenates were taken out in batches;5-HT and 5-HIAA levels in brain tissues were determined according to fluorescence spectrophotometric.Results Compared with the blank group, all treated groups had a reduced number of spontaneous activities, a shortened sleep latency, a prolonged sleep time, and an increased sleep rate after administration (P0.05). Compared with the blank group, brain 5-HT and 5-HIAA levels in all treated groups increased in mice (P<0.01,P<0.05), with the most significant changes seen in the high-dose THAM group (P<0.05).Conclusion THAM has a significant sedative-hypnotic effect. The mechanism may be related to increasing brain 5-HT synthesis and metabolism.
