A study on the treatment of chloasma with moxibustion based on the theory of“Yang transforming Qi,and Yin shaping”

Background:“Yang Transforming Qi and Yin shaping”comes from“Plain Question Yin and Yang should be like the theory”.Chinese medicine believes that the imbalance of yin and yang is the cause of human diseases.One of the strengths of TCM in treating diseases is holistic regulation.The theory of“Yang transforming Qi,and Yin shaping”implies a strong holistic view.Chloasma,one of the common skin diseases,seriously affects the physical and mental health of patients due to its unclear etiology,difficult treatment and easy recurrence.The occurrence and development of chloasma are closely related to internal organs.This paper is based on the theory of internal meridian,“Yang transforming Qi,and Yin shaping”which attaches importance to the concept of“Yang Qi”,from a new understanding of the pathogenesis etiology of chloasma.Methods:The author believes that the incidence of the disease is the deficiency of Yang Qi,which can’t promote the movement of Qi and blood to nourish the face,resulting in tangible material condensation,so proposes that this disease needs to be promoted by Yang transforming Qi and warm to dissipate.Moxibustion belongs to the fire,and its warming effect can dissipate the tangible evil.Results:Combined with clinical practice and the theory of internal meridian,the author elaborated that moxibustion is one of the effective methods for treating chloasma,which provides a new way of thinking for the treatment of chloasma.Conclusion:“Yang Transforming Qi and Yin shaping”can be used to guide the treatment of chloasma.

Evaluation of the Effect and Efficiency of Ear Tip Bloodletting Combined with Xianfang Huoming Yin in the Treatment of Early-Stage Wheals

Objective:To evaluate the effect and efficiency of ear tip bloodletting combined with Xianfang Huoming Yin(XFH)in the treatment of early-stage wheals.Methods:70 patients with early-stage wheals admitted from September 2020 to September 2022 were divided into two groups by randomized numerical table method,with 35 cases/group.Both groups received conventional treatment,the control group combined with XFH,and the observation group combined with ear tip bloodletting therapy and XFH.Conscious symptom scores,ocular indexes,therapeutic effects,and sleep quality between the two groups were compared.Results:After the treatment,the patients in the observation group had lower self-awareness symptom scores and sleep quality scores as compared to those in the control group;the diameter of the mass in the observation group was smaller than that of the control group after treatment;the average tear film rupture time and the time taken for the first non-contact tear film to rupture were longer in the observation group than those in the control group;the total effective rate of the treatment in the observation group was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Ear tip bloodletting combined with XFH was ideal for the treatment of early-stage wheals and has a high effective rate.

Clinical Study on the Effectiveness of Xian Fang Huo Ming Yin for Treating Cutaneous Infections and Promoting Wound Healing in Patients with Perianal Abscess

Objective:To explore the effect of the Xian Fang Huo Ming Yin(XFHM)for treating cutaneous infections and promoting wound healing in patients with perianal abscesses.Methods:Sixty-one patients with perianal abscesses who were admitted to our hospital(Xinghua City People’s Hospital)from May 2022 to May 2023 were selected and randomly divided into two groups,a control group(30 cases)and a study group(31 cases).Both groups received surgical treatment.The control group received conventional treatment and warm water fumigation,sitz bath,and surgical dressing change after surgery,while the research group received XFHM based on the control group.XFHM was taken orally and replaced with warm water for fumigation and sitz bathing.Both groups received treatment for 4 weeks but discontinued sitz bathing after 2 weeks.Various clinical indicators between the two groups were compared.Results:The total clinical effective rate and wound recovery rate of the study group were higher than that of the control group.There were differences in the wound pain scores,surrounding tissue edema,and wound secretions at different time points.Both groups experienced wound pain.The scores of wound pain,surrounding tissue edema,and wound secretions of the study group were lower than those of the control group,7 and 14 days after surgery.The serum interleukin 6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-α)levels,and pH values of the study group were lower than those of the control group 10 days after surgery(P<0.05).Conclusion:The application of XFHM for treating cutaneous infections and promoting wound healing in patients with perianal abscesses improved the treatment outcome,alleviated clinical symptoms,and promoted healing.

Differential Effects of Yin- and Yang-Chinese Tonifying Herbs on Innate and Adaptive Immunity

The present study investigated the effect of treatment with methanolic extracts of Yin- and Yang-Chinese tonifying herbs on concanavalin A (Con A)/lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated splenocyte proliferation (adaptive immunity) and natural killer (NK) cell activity (innate immunity) in an ex vivo mouse model. The results indicated that while treatment with most Yin herbal extracts potentiated the Con A/LPS-stimulated splenocyte proliferation, only Yang (but not Yin) herbal extracts stimulated NK cell activity. The differential effects of Yin- and Yang-Chinese tonifying herbs on innate and adaptive immunity are consistent with the Chinese medicine theory which depicts the Yin and Yang functional components of Zheng Qi (vital energy), with the Yang component being responsible for the first line of defense against invading microorganisms (i.e., innate immunity) and the Yin oner serving as a follow-up defensive response (adaptive immunity).

Continuity and Change in Dao Yin:Comparing and Contrasting the Therapeutic Exercises in Yin Shu(The Book of Pulling,c.2nd Century BCE)and Zhu Bing Yuan Hou Lun(Treatise on the Origins and Manifestations of Various Diseases,610 CE)

The manuscript Yin Shu(The Book of Pulling),excavated from Zhangjiashan Han Tomb No.247,is the earliest surviving text on therapeutic exercise known as Dao Yin(lit.guiding and pulling).Discovered in 1983,this Dao Yin text,together with the drawings of 44 figures performing“guiding and pulling”exercises found in the Mawangdui Han Tomb in 1974,are of great significance to the study of the early history of Dao Yin.Prior to these discoveries,researchers into Dao Yin relied mainly on material found in the Dao Zang(the Daoist Canon),compiled in 1145.This led to their conclusion that Dao Yin was essentially Daoist.The development of Dao Yin reached its zenith during the Sui Dynasty(581–618 CE),when it became one of the three medical departments at the imperial medical education institution.As part of the medical reform of the second Sui Emperor,Yang Di,Dao Yin became the treatment of choice,and the employment of a large number of Dao Yin specialists to the Sui court transformed the state medical service.The compilation of Zhu Bing Yuan Hou Lun(Treatise on the Origins and Manifestations of Various Diseases)under Yang Di’s decree,incorporated an abundance of resources on Dao Yin,enabling physicians to potentially“prescribe”Dao Yin to their patients.Situating both Yin Shu and Zhu Bing Yuan Hou Lun in their social and historical contexts,this article analyses their editorial treatments,examines their different objectives,styles,and readerships,and compares the various exercises described in the two texts.It emphasizes the fact that over a period of nearly a thousand years,from the late Warring States(475–221 BCE)to the Sui and Tang periods,Dao Yin was an important medical practice,culminating in its institutionalization by the Sui government.

TianmaGouteng yin attenuates ischemic stroke-induced brain injury by inhibiting the AGE/RAGE pathway

Background:Ischemic stroke is characterized by permanent or transient obstruction of blood flow,leading to a growing risk factor and health burden.Tianmagouteng yin(TMG)is commonly used in Chinese medicine to treat cerebral ischemia.The aim of this study was to investigate the neuroprotective effects of TMG against ischemic stroke.Methods:Either permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion(pMCAO)or sham operation was performed on anesthetized Wistar male rats(n=36).Results:Results demonstrated that TMG administration reduced the infarction volume and mitigated the neurobehavioral deficits.Hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining and Prussian blue staining revealed that TMG attenuated tissue disruption and microbleeds in hippocampus tissues.In addition,TMG down-regulated the receptor of advanced glycation end products(RAGE)and p-JAK2.It also inhibited the concentrations of advanced glycation end products(AGEs),ferritin,malondialdehyde(MDA),and reactive oxygen species(ROS).Conclusion:As repetitive clinical trials of neuroprotectants targeting stroke have failed previously,our results suggested that the natural product,TMG,can probably help in the vicious cycles of ischemic stroke pathology.

基于文献及计量学方法研究脾阴学说古今发展及参苓白术散滋补脾阴作用阐释

脾乃后天之本、气血生化之源,脾之阳气为脾脏功能的发挥提供了“动力”,而脾阴则提供了“物质基础”。脾阴学说成说较晚、论说较少,基于文献研究系统梳理了脾阴理论内涵及历史发展源流,认为“辅运化”“主滋养”和“和胃阳”是脾阴主要的生理功能;脾阴理论的发展主要经历了《黄帝内经》构建脏腑阴阳理论体系、《伤寒论》初识脾阴方证、“丹溪学派”首开滋阴法先河、缪希雍系统建立脾阴理论体系、吴澄引申“芳香甘平”治法5个历史时期。此外,通过文献计量学Citespace分析脾阴学说现代整体发展应用情况,对比古今常用11个滋补脾阴类中药复方发现:现代研究中对脾阴学说的认识主要传承自唐容川、叶天士、吴澄、李东垣、缪希雍、张锡纯几位医家;其理论主要应用在消渴(糖尿病)、泄泻、便秘、肉痿等疾病治疗中;用药偏以甘淡,兼顾养胃阴为特色;局方参苓白术散成方早,充分体现了“甘淡”补脾之滋补脾阴用药的基本法则,具有健脾气、滋脾阴、渗脾湿之功效,全方升降相因、散收并用、补行兼施,尤宜于脾气阴虚夹湿的患者,乃滋补脾阴理论应用的基础方。

基于“阴阳自和”理论探讨自噬在老年血脂异常中的作用

自噬是近年来的医学热点领域,在此过程中,受损细胞器、蛋白质聚集物和脂滴等通发生降解(阴),并在此过程中生成能量(阳)与机体衰老和能量代谢密切相关。自噬在维持细胞内稳态、应对细胞内应激中的作用与阴阳消长、阴阳互用实现动态平衡,从而达到阴阳自和状态的过程不谋而合。中医理论分析认为老年血脂异常为本虚标实之证,与脾肾功能相关,与机体阴阳自和能力下降相关。文章尝试以中医阴阳理论为基础,探讨细胞自噬在老年血脂异常中的作用。

从“阳化气,阴成形”探讨慢性咳嗽之因机证治

慢性咳嗽是以咳嗽为主症或唯一症状、病程持续8周以上的呼吸系统疾病。慢性咳嗽病因复杂,病程较长,病势缠绵,且极易复发。西医诊断该病过程繁琐,治疗手段有限,而中医药以整体观念和辨证论治思想为指导,在缓解临床症状、预防疾病复发方面具有独特优势。该文以“阳化气,阴成形”为抓手,分析阴阳在慢性咳嗽因机证治全周期的重要意义,认为慢性咳嗽之病机关键为“阳化气,阴成形”功能失衡,以肺之气血失和、阴阳虚损为本,阳化而气行不畅、周流有碍,阴变而凝结停滞、壅塞肺络为标。治疗上,需要补肺、脾、肾阴阳之不足,泄气滞、水湿、痰饮、瘀血、热毒之有余,以恢复“阳化气,阴成形”之平衡。具体用药方面,主张以偏纠偏,以药物气味之偏性纠正人体阴阳之偏颇。另附典型医案二例,加以验证说明,以期为中医药防治慢性咳嗽提供新的诊疗思路和方法。

基于“阳化气,阴成形”理论辨治痿证

津气两伤是痿证的病变基础,亦是“阳化气,阴成形”失衡的结果。阳化气不足,阴成形失衡,而致脏腑功能失调,水饮痰瘀内生,四肢九窍失养,发为痿证。本文基于“阳化气,阴成形”理论,探讨高颖教授采用助阳化气法治疗阳化气不足的重症肌无力,益肾调形法治疗阴成形失衡的多发性硬化,阴阳双补法治疗阴阳俱损的运动神经元病。治疗痿证,需审证求因,明辨阴阳,调整偏颇,在疾病早期给予中医药治疗,以延缓疾病演变进程、改善预后。

基于“阳化气,阴成形”论治癌性腹水临床经验探讨

癌性腹水作为中晚期肿瘤的常见并发症之一,临床以腹部胀满和呼吸窘迫为主要症状,多见于晚期卵巢、胰腺和胃肠道恶性肿瘤等腹腔脏器恶性肿瘤患者。其发展速度快,病情进行性加重,一旦出现癌性腹水,患者的中位生存期将缩短至数月甚至数周,严重影响肿瘤患者的后续治疗及生活质量。癌性腹水的治疗至今仍是临床一大难题。“阳化气,阴成形”是《黄帝内经》中关于阴阳生理病理状态的重要论述,阳主“动”而流散以化气,阴主“静”而凝聚以成形,二者调和一致则为平人,若平衡被打破则百病由生。郭立中教授立足临床,结合古医籍和临床经验,提出“阳化气”不及、“阴成形”太过与癌性腹水的发生、发展密切相关。其中,“阳化气”不及是发病之本,“阴成形”太过是发病之标。肺、脾、肾阳虚化气不足,水液运化失常,水湿结聚,水为寒邪,寒性收引凝滞,易致血脉凝结,血凝又加重水湿留而不行,水湿、血瘀停聚腹腔形成癌性腹水。阳虚、水湿、血瘀是关键病因,病性为本虚标实,导师以扶阳消阴为治疗总则,重视扶肺、脾、肾阳气以固其本,消水湿瘀血以治其标,并根据疾病不同时期的病机特点在治疗上讲求次第,灵活变通,并配合外治法,临床收效显著。

目的:观察子午流注择时电温针联合双补增津汤治疗结肠慢传输型便秘(STC)气阴两虚证的临床疗效。方法:选择符合纳入标准的152例STC气阴两虚证患者,按随机抽取法分为对照组(枸橼酸莫沙必利治疗)、电针组(枸橼酸莫沙必利+子午流注择时电温针治疗)、中药组(枸橼酸莫沙必利+双补增津汤治疗)和结合组(枸橼酸莫沙必利+子午流注择时电温针+双补增津汤治疗),每组各38例,均治疗4周。观察比较4组患者治疗前后中医症状积分和总积分、结肠传输试验标志物含量、肠道菌群数量、焦虑自评量表评分(SAS)、抑郁自评量表评分(SDS)、慢性便秘严重度评分(CSS)的变化情况,比较临床疗效及随访6个月复发率。结果:4组患者治疗后中医症状积分和总积分、结肠传输试验标志物含量和SAS、SDS、CSS评分均较治疗前比较均明显下降(P<0.05),肠道内大肠埃希数量与治疗前比较明显减少(P<0.05),双歧杆菌、乳酸杆菌数量与治疗前比较明显增多(P<0.05);结合组临床疗效明显优于其他3组(P<0.05),随访期复发率明显低于其他3组(P<0.05)。结论:子午流注择时电温针联合双补增津汤治疗STC气阴两虚证的疗效显著,二者可发挥协同增效作用,能有效缓解便秘症状,调节肠道菌群,恢复肠道运动功能,改善焦虑、抑郁心理状态,降低复发率。

由“阳有余而阴不足”探讨自噬调节糖皮质激素介导的破骨分化

目前,糖皮质激素(glucocorticoids,GC)在临床上被广泛应用于抑制炎症反应与免疫系统,然而GC的长期大量应用会引起破骨细胞过度活跃,导致骨质疏松症以及相关骨折,被称为糖皮质激素性骨质疏松症(GIOP)。GIOP属于中医学“骨痿”“骨枯”的范畴,“骨痿”的发病病机与机体阴阳失衡密切相关。细胞自噬作为一种自我保护机制,对维持机体内环境平衡、调节“成骨-破骨”形成的骨稳态至关重要。成骨细胞与破骨细胞介导的骨稳态与中医理论中的阴阳自和理论不谋而合。本文基于GIOP发病的病机“阳有余而阴不足”探讨通过“调节自噬-平衡阴阳”来调控骨稳态,为防治GIOP提供新的思路。
