Professor Liu Daxin 's Academic Thought Summary - Clinical Observation On Treatment Of "Allergic Rhinitis Asthma Syndrome" By Yupingfeng Decoction And Xiaoqinglong Decoction

Chinese traditional medicine is always a part along the whole course of the Chinese development, and its contributions in maintaining the health of the world people are also very significant. Therefore it has profound and significant meanings to protect it and inherit it as an intangible cultural heritage, further developing its real value and better exerting their potential, long-term value.Since the eastward transmission of western sciences, China’s academic system and structure were influenced profoundly that the powerful western culture changed both the survival environment of Chinese medicine and people’s value orientation, making utilitarianism and functionalism prevail, and the original ways and purpose of Chinese medicine inheritance were also been influenced. Currently, people have less awareness of inheriting Chinese traditional medicine. Related education mode of Chinese medicine has also changed from taught by Chinese medical Specialist to taught by schools, in which, on the contrast, also adopt Western medicine education mode. Therefore, the original inheritance mode of Chinese medicine is fading away gradually, added that the phenomena of westernization of Chinese medicine, there appear serious inheritance crisis behind current prosperity of traditional Chinese medicine.Besides, Chinese medicine has a complete theoretical system and their own academic development rule, but due to the influence of western culture and value orientation, the evaluation system almost adopt western standards, leading to that only the usage and effect of Chinese medicine are adopted while its internal academic links were all ignored. In the reality policies and rules, anything about the traditional characteristics of Chinese medicine is also ignored. That is the key in the development of Chinese medicine is whether to success and inherit it according to its own rules or not.Predecessors to academic of traditional Chinese medicine as, such as zhang zhongjing the treatise on febrile disease, sun simiao writes "daughter s", "thousand Jin Yifang", li shizhen "compendium of materia medica", etc in addition to passing on academic to the benefit of future generations, with no thought of utilitarianism. Because of the old and famous historical experience accumulation and inheritance of traditional Chinese medicine, makes TCM enduring, eternal vitality.Many predecessors take the inheritance of traditional Chinese medicine as their historical responsibility, such as Zhang Zhongj ing’s Treatise on Febrile Diseases, Sun Simiao’s Valuable Prescriptions for Emergencies and Supplement to Valuable Prescriptions and Li Shizhen’s Compendium of Materia Medica, all their goals were to inherit the academic knowledge and bring happiness to their descendants instead of for some materialistic purpose. Just because of the experience accumulation and inheritance of these famous TCM doctors, our Chinese medicine can keep the vitality and be eternally renewed during the long course of history.Nowadays, those famous TCM doctors also combine the basic Chinese medicine theory, predecessors’experience with their practice. They have various academic thoughts and different clinical experience, so they also have been the symbol for solving some puzzling questions in clinical practice.it is hard to have an appropriate evaluation and make a contrast on the TCM doctors’academic experience, because their standards on diagnosing the decease and therapeutic effect are not always the same. Therefore, we must try to have a explore and establish an individualized diagnosis and evaluation method system, which means we can adopt the research mode of evidence-based medicine to have a study on the essence and advantages of those TCM doctors’ academic experience. Same with the modern medical scientific research design, scientific research and design of TCM also need to follow the principle of random and comparison, as well as reflect the characteristics of treatment based on syndrome differentiation. We can make a feasible research plan according to the essence and advantages of those TCM doctors’academic experience, such as adopt the unified national criteria on disease diagnosis and effect evaluation, use observation indexes that is in line with modern medicine and to establish a persuasive data group which can make a comparison on the data, through which we can get a scientific research. Based on all of such feasible plans, we can have comprehensive evaluations on TCM doctors’academic experience, such as curative effect evaluation, safety evaluation, titer evaluation, and evaluation of quality of life, evaluation on outcome event and follow-up evaluation.As a famous Chinese medicine professor in China, Mr. Liu Daxin has studied on medicine for few decades. He is familiar with many classic medical books like Canon of Internal Medicine, Treatise on Febrile Diseases, Ancient book etc. and good at treatment with classical prescription. His medical skill in ENT diseases is very good and he also has rich experience on other internal medical diseases, which also have notable curative effect. He often taught us that to be a qualified doctor, the first thing we should do is keeping our medical ethnic, and we also need to expand our thinking though reading the classics, combine theories and practice by industrious study, be diligent to make summary, be willing to take advice and concentrate on study and be innovative. Mr.Liu believes that for thousands of years, all the famous Chinese doctors in history have read the classics for many times, and they can combine the theoretical knowledge they learned with their practice on disease diagnose very flexible and in an innovative way. Based on the theories they’ve learned, they also have their own analogue thinking, methods and principles in diagnosing and preventing disease. Another common characteristic is that their drug use was simple and easy to made, cost was low and clinical efficacy could be got directly.Professor Liu pointed out that the concept under the guidance of classical theory has penetrated into the whole theoretical system of physiology, pathology, syndrome differentiation and treatment of Chinese traditional medicine, so during the diagnose and treatment process, we can start from the classic theories and apply them into the practice flexibly. Based on the principle of seeking truth from facts and keeping up with the times and a view on an overall level of nature-society-human body, we must also be innovative, questionable and practicable in studying the etiology, pathogenesis and outcome of the disease, then an effective therapeutic plan can formulate and the characteristic and advantage of Chinese medicine can be embodied.As a famous Chinese medicine professor in China, his academic thought and experience is a wisdom crystallization of profound Chinese medicine theory and rich practical experience as well as the precious wealth and important part of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM).Keep the principle of "follow the nature, be in harmony with individuals, identify according to the etiology and strengthen body resistance and eliminate evil" in TCM, Professor Liu believes that disease in parts of body can be cured and recuperated through integrated treatment. TCM’s integrated treatment can balance the body’s qi and blood, in and Yang, make the hepatic function be normal, through all of which partial disease also been cured. We had a research on 60 patients who have Combined Allergic Rhinitis and Asthma Syndrome and found that after we adopted Professor Liu’s treatment with Yupingfeng powder and Xiaoqinglong decoction, all their symptoms relieved obviously, and their mental state and life quality are also been improved.Combined Allergic Rhinitis and Asthma Syndrome is a new concept posed in recent years. Although we had realized that Allergic Rhinitis has certain relationship with the Asthma, we didn’t establish joint research and diagnosis and therapy plan until this new concept was adopted, so current clinical research related to this concept is not enough.According to the selecting documents, Yupingfeng powder and Xiaoqinglong decoction are frequently used clinical decoctions for clinical observation of bronchial asthma, but never been used in clinical research on treating Combined Allergic Rhinitis and Asthma Syndrome.In the explanation of how to deal with the primary contradictions and secondary contradictions during the clinical research, Professor Liu pointed out that no matter for primary symptom or accompanied symptom, our treatment and prescription should all based on the overall conception of TCM and the basic principles of syndrome differentiation and treatment. During the TCM Clinical Practice, we must grasp the common characters of the diseases but not stick to the method routine, our aim is to adjust the yin and yang, realizing the effective restoring of dynamic balance. The root cause for the disease is the imbalance of yin and yang, so the ultimate purpose for the drug selections is to balance yin and yang. The more yin and yang become balanced, the sooner the disease is cured. If yin and yang can maintain the dynamic balance, the disease will be cured and the virus in body will also be expelled. This is the principle that TMC doctors often emphasized "prevention before disease onset, early treatment to prevent deterioration."This subject, starts from various aspects, such as symptom relief evaluation, improvement of life quality and mental attitude and auxiliary examination, has some clinical researches on related index of Professor Liu’s treatment of Combined Allergic Rhinitis and Asthma Syndrome with Yupingfeng powder and Xiaoqinglong decoction. The main purpose is to prove its functions and mechanisms in increasing the treatment efficiency, improving patients’ mental condition and life quality, which reveal Professor Liu’s academic thought of "follow the nature, be in harmony with individuals, identify according to the etiology and strengthen body resistance and eliminate evil", hoping that it can provide a new thinking for the exploration of preventing allergic diseases with TMC.
