With the rapid development of science and technology, more and more new methods and technologies have been added to the traditional Chinese Medicine Inheritance model, which makes the process of inheritance of famous doctors have more means, and the results of inheritance are more objective, rigorous and intelligent. In the process of inheriting the informationization of famous doctors, there are some bottlenecks, such as data acquisition difficulties, data processing difficulties, algorithm application difficulties, analysis and summary difficulties. Integration of artificial intelligence with big data, deep learning algorithm and knowledge atlas technology has brought technological innovation to the informationization of famous doctors' inheritance. Under this wave, the team of the Intelligent Research and Development Center of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine Information, Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Medical Sciences, has developed a series of professional application systems in the field of traditional Chinese medicine around the planning of famous doctors' inheritance and excavation, and has developed ancient Chinese medicine, such as Today's Medical Records Cloud Platform, Medical Records Big Data Analysis Platform, Cloud Medical Records APP, Famous Medical Heritage Workstation. To a certain extent, it can solve the problems of inefficient collection of medical records, lack of objective data support and information barriers in the summary of famous doctors' experience under the limitation of traditional model, so as to promote the inheritance of famous doctors' experience and enhance the teaching ability and efficiency of teachers and apprentices.

In the past decades, numerous clinical researches have been conducted to illuminate the effects of traditional Chinese medicine for better inheritance and promotion of it, which are mostly clinical trials designed from the doctor's point of view. This large-scale data mining study was conducted from real-world point of view in up to 10 years' big data sets of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in China, including both medical visits to hospital and cyberspace and contemporaneous social survey data. Finally, some important and interesting findings appear: (1) More Criticisms vs. More Visits. The intensity of criticism increased by 2.33 times over the past 10 years, while the actual number of visits increased by 2.41 times. (2) The people of younger age, highly educated and from economically developed areas have become the primary population for utilizing TCM, which is contrary to common opinions on the characteristics of TCM users. The discovery of this phenomenon indicates that TCM deserves further study on how it treats illness and maintains health.

BACKGROUND Clinical diagnosis and treatment decision making support is at the core of medical artificial intelligent research, in which Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) decision making is an important part. Traditional Chinese Medicine is a traditional medical system originated from China, of which the main clinical model is to conduct individualized diagnosis and treatment by relying on the four-diagnosis information. One of the key tasks of the TCM artificial intelligence research is to develop techniques and methods of clinical prescription decision making which takes all the relevant information of a patient as input, and produces a diagnosis and treatment scheme as output. Given the complexity of TCM clinical diagnosis and treatment schemes, decision making support of clinical diagnosis and treatment schemes remains as a research challenge for lacking of an effective solution. Fortunately, as the volume of the massive clinical data in the form of electronic medical records increases rapidly, it becomes possible for the computer to produce personalized diagnosis and treatment scheme recommendation through machine learning on the basis of the clinical big data. OBJECTIVE The objective of this research is to develop a real-time diagnosis and treatment scheme recommendation model for TCM inpatients. This is accomplished by using historical clinical medical records as training data to train a Transformer network. Furthermore, to alleviate the issue of overfitting, a Generative Adversarial Network is used to generate noise-added samples from the original training data. These noise-added samples along with the original samples form the complete train data set. METHODS valid information, such as the patient’s current sickness situation, medicines taken, nursing care given, vital signs, examinations and test results, is extracted from the patient’s electronic medical records, then the obtained information is sorted chronically, to produce a sequence of data of each patient. These time-sequence data is then used as input to the Transformer network. The output of the network would be the prescription information a physician would give. Overfitting is a common problem in machine learning, and becomes especially server when the network is complex with insufficient training data. In this research, a Generative Adversarial Network, is used to double the number of training samples by producing noise-added samples from the original samples. This, to a great extent, lessens the overfitting problem. RESULTS A total of 21,295 copies of inpatient electronic medical records from Guang’anmen traditional Chinese medicine hospital was used in this research. These records were created between January 2017 and December 2018, covering a total of 6352 kinds of medicines. These medicines were sorted into 829 types of first category medicines based on the class relationships among medicines. As shown by the test results, the performance of a fully trained Transformer model can have an average precision rate of 80.58%,and an average recall rate of 68.49%. CONCLUSIONS As shown by the preliminary test results, the Transformer-based TCM prescription recommendation model outperforms the existing conventional methods. The extra training samples generated by the GAN network helps to overcome the overfitting issue, leading a further improved recall rate and precision rate.

Background and Aim. Antineoplastic drug-induced cardiotoxicity (ADIC) becomes the second leading cause of death for tumor survivors after tumor recurrence and metastasis, and there may be great room for development in the future of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). However, the theory of anticardiotoxicity of TCM has not yet formed a system. This study aimed to explore the material basis and the rule of TCM against ADIC based on network pharmacology and data mining. Methods. The targets of antineoplastic drugs with cardiotoxicity were obtained from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) database, China national knowledge infrastructure (CNKI) database, and Swiss Target Prediction platform. Then, the cardiotoxicity-related targets were derived from the Gene Cards, Disgenet, OMIM, and DrugBank databases, as well as the drug of current clinical guidelines. The targets both in these two sets were regarded as potential targets to alleviate ADIC. Then, candidate compounds and herbs were matched via Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology (TCMSP) platform. Cytoscape3.7.1 was used to set up the target-compound-herb network. Molecular docking between core targets and compounds was performed with AutodockVina1.1.2. The rules of herbs were summarized by analyzing their property, flavor, and channel tropism. Results. Twenty-one potential targets, 332 candidate compounds, and 400 kinds of herbs were obtained. Five core targets including potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily H member 2 (KCNH2), cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1), matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2), mitogen-activated protein kinase1 (MAPK1), and tumor protein p53 (TP53) and 29 core compounds (beta-sitosterol, quercetin, kaempferol, etc.) were collected. Five core herbs (Yanhusuo, Gouteng, Huangbai, Lianqiao, and Gancao) were identified. Also, the TCM against ADIC were mainly bitter and acrid in taste, warm in property, and distributed to the liver and lung meridians. Conclusion. TCM against ADIC has great potential. Our study provides a new method and ideas for clinical applications of integrated Chinese and western medicine in treating ADIC.
