Syndrome Differentiation And Treatment

Uterine fibroids are the most common benign tumors in gynecology. Traditional Chinese medicine treats uterine fibroids according to syndrome differentiation and treatment. The treatment of uterine fibroids has the characteristics of definitive curative effects and minor side-effects, but there are also many shortcomings, which require more in-depth research and exploration.

Bronchial asthma is a common chronic airway disease, and long-term management of asthma is the focus and difficulty of clinical treatment. Glucocorticoids are often used as the first choice for the treatment of asthma. However, the occurrence of hormone dependence, hormone resistance, local and systemic adverse reactions caused by hormone application also brings problems for the treatment of asthma. Finding safe and effective new therapeutic drugs is an important research direction at present. Icariin is the effective ingredient of traditional Chinese medicine Epimedium. It has various biological activities such as anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative stress, and immune regulation. It has high safety and has a wide range of clinical applications. Icariin has the characteristics of multi-target intervention in the treatment of asthma. This article reviews recent studies in order to provide new research directions for further therapeutic drug development.

Objective: To review the research progress of using Chinese medicine ginseng to prevent and treat AIDS in China. Methods: Based on the method of TCM syndrome differentiation, Chinese medical researchers divided AIDS into four types: heat toxin stagnation type, Qi and blood deficiency type, stasis and internal resistance type, and Qi and Yin injury type. Results: The therapeutic effects of the compound preparation of traditional Chinese medicine were significant, such as Aikang capsule, Tangcao tablet, Wuweilingqi capsule, Aining granule, compound Sanhuang powder, etc. Astragalus, licorice, honeysuckle, Scutellaria, bupleurum, Salvia miltiorrhiza, Viola, Hedyotis diffusa and other 8 kinds of traditional Chinese medicine have been proved to have anti HIV effect. Conclusion: Among the 27 kinds of Chinese medicine ginseng, Andrographis paniculata, Viola, Arnebia, Arctium lappa, Sophora flavescens, honeysuckle, Guanzhong, Prunella, Coptis, Wolfberry, Wedelia and epimedium have been proved to have the effect of preventing HIV replication.

UNSTRUCTURED Syndrome differentiation and treatment is the core of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) in the treatment of diseases. TCM doctors can dialectically classify the syndrome according to the patients' symptoms and conduct treatment. Syndrome differentiation can be regarded as a mathematical model for multi-classification of different high-dimensional sparse symptom vectors. The FGCNN can quickly and effectively extract the nonlinear cross features of sparse vectors in the CTR task. On this basis, we selected the data of 5273 real cases of dysmenorrhea and divided the symptoms into field according to the four diagnosis of TCM, so as to construct an improved Cross-FGCNN model and apply it to the intelligent dialectics of TCM. We used 6 kinds of intelligent dialectical models and 3 kinds of CTR models as comparisons at the same time. Cross-FGCNN can achieve 96.21% accuracy and 0.836 Log-Loss, which is better than other models. We maintain that the model of Cross-FGCNN can automatically extract the linear and nonlinear features of symptoms and classify them, having great potential in the intelligent dialectics of TCM in the future.

The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 has been rapidly spreading globally and has caused worldwide social and economic disruption. Currently, no specific antiviral drugs or clinically effective vaccines are available to prevent and treat COVID-19. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) can facilitate syndrome differentiation and treatment according to the clinical manifestations of patients and has demonstrated effectiveness in epidemic prevention and control. In China, TCM intervention has helped to control the epidemic; however, TCM has not been fully recognized worldwide. In this review, we summarize the epidemiology and etiological characteristics of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 and the prevention and treatment measures of COVID-19. Additionally, we describe the application of TCM in the treatment of COVID-19 and the identification of small molecules of TCM that demonstrate anti-coronavirus activity. We also analyze the current problems associated with the recognition of TCM. We hope that, through the contribution of TCM, combined with modern technological research and the support of our international counterparts, COVID-19 can be effectively controlled and treated.

Abstract Background: Psoriasis is a chronic, non-communicable, painful, disfiguring and disabling disease, which is not curable and strongly declines the patients’ quality of life (QoL). However, diagnose and treatment in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) based on syndrome differentiation has been used in practice for a long time and has also achieved some effect. Though, up to now, only few studies are available reporting on the use of semantic technologies and pertain to knowledge systems that use TCM-syndrome differentiation for information retrieval and automated reasoning. Nowadays, the diagnosis in TCM relies mainly on the personal expertise and clinical experience of the doctors. For various reasons, misdiagnoses or missed diagnoses cannot be completely excluded, leading to unexpected results.Methods: Firstly, we developed a domain ontology for syndrome differentiation of psoriasis vulgaris. For this purpose, we used the ontology editor Protégé and applied a top-down approach which adopts the framework of general formal ontology (GFO) and its middle-level core ontology GFO-TCM. Furthermore, we implement a prototype which is based on this ontology. Additionally, we also used a case-database for CBR (Case Based Reasoning) combined with fuzzy pattern recognition.Results: A prototype for diagnosis and treatment of psoriasis vulgaris, named ONTOPV-system, is proposed which is based on the principle of syndrome differentiation and treatment in TCM; this system realizes an expert-assisted decision support method which relies on a domain ontology, uses fuzzy logic reasoning, and case retrieval and is intended to support clinical diagnostic decisions for TCM practitioners.Conclusions: We designed and implemented a prototype for psoriasis diagnosis in terms of syndrome differentiation. The system can not only realize the basic functionalities of data collection, querying, browsing and navigation, but also support rule-based knowledge reasoning and customize approximate reasoning based on CBR through fuzzy logic, which can provide users with clinical decision support for TCM syndrome differentiation in diagnosis of psoriasis. In addition, it comprises a domain knowledge base of psoriasis, which is developed based on the GFO framework with good extensibility.

Respiratory viruses, such as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV)-1, SARS-CoV-2, influenza A viruses, and respiratory syncytial virus, pose a serious threat to society. Based on the guiding principles of “holism” and “syndrome differentiation and treatment”, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has unique advantages in the treatment of respiratory virus diseases owing to the synergistic effect of multiple components and targets, which prevents drug resistance from arising. According to TCM theory, there are two main strategies in antiviral treatments, namely “dispelling evil” and “fu zheng”. Dispelling evil corresponds to the direct inhibition of virus growth and fu zheng corresponds to immune regulation, inflammation control, and tissue protection in the host. In this review, current progress in using TCMs against respiratory viruses is summarized according to modern biological theories. The prospects for developing TCMs against respiratory viruses is discussed to provide a reference for the research and development of innovative TCMs with multiple components, multiple targets, and low toxicity.
