Progressive teaching of Qi under the guidance of constructivism theory

Qi is the core concept that runs through the theory of traditional Chinese medicine.It is the basic connection between ancient philosophy and traditional Chinese medicine.It is the most difficult and most key point of students’learning.Considering the characteristics of the course and the cognitive style of students,we use constructivist cognitive theory as a reference to design progressive teaching of the Qi content included in the course textbook.The process consists of two parts.The first part is the construction of the basic theory.Students are guided as they build schemata of basic concepts to assemble a deep understanding.They then take the initiative,and participate in the explanation,thereby completely internalizing the knowledge.The second part of the process is clinical skill training in collecting,sorting and writing medical records.In the end we have achieved the teaching goal of driving students’interest in learning,providing them with basic theoretical knowledge,and exercising the comprehensive practical problem solving skills,while cultivating the style of thinking required by practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine.

Research progress of Chinese herbal medicines and classic prescriptions in the treatment ofCOPD based on the TCM theory and medicinal characteristics

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)is a heterogeneous disease with a complex pathogenesis,which causes the lack of precise and personalized prevention,control,and treatment approaches in clinical practice.Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)with multiple components acting on multiple targets plays a role in the prevention and treatment of COPD.After evaluating the treatment of cough,dyspnea,and lung distension based on syndrome differentiation in TCM,we summarized the commonly used TCMpreparations for treating COPD.These preparations are mainly composed of medicines for clearing interior heat and releasing exterior,tonifying,activating blood and resolving stasis,resolving phlegm,relieving cough and breathlessness,and regulating Qi movement.Because all of them contain a variety of active ingredients such as flavonoids,terpenoids,and phenols,we analyzed the mechanisms of the classic prescriptions alone or in combination with othermedicines or therapeuticmethods.These mechanisms involve counteracting inflammation,oxidative stress,and fibrosis,inhibiting apoptosis,alleviating airway remodeling,and enhancing immunity.Meantime,we summarized the existing problems in the treatment of COPD by TCM.This review provides a scientific basis for the research and treatment of COPD in the future.
