| Objective:Chinese and Korean medicine are both traditional medicine, belonging to the same medicine system. The history of Traditional Korean Medicine is closely related with Traditional Chinese Medicine, but due to the different development environment of the two countries, different medical features and research tendencies come into being. In this paper, in order to understand research tendency of cardiovascular diseases of Chinese and Korean traditional medicine, retrieve related words through the database to obtain the distribution of cardiovascular-related literature of Chinese and Korean traditional medicine, analyze and explore the research progress and tendency of cardiovascular diseases by traditional medicine of two countries.Methods:Retrieve cardiovascular-related keywords from Traditional Chinese Medicine representative papers search engine database CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure) and Traditional Korean Medicine Papers search engine database OASIS (Oriental Medicine Advanced Serching Integrated Sysetem). The date of search condition is set from1994to2014(nearly20years); the search range is set as the theme, and only choose Traditional Chinese Medicine, traditional Chinese pharmacology, integrated traditional and Western medicine. Keywords:Western clinical diagnosis name of the main cardiovascular diseases, cardiac Chinese medicine disease names and myocardium and other related keywords. Korean key words are the corresponding translation. Specifically:hyperlipidemia, atherosclerosis, coronary atherosclerotic heart disease (or with coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, angina), hypertension, arrhythmia, heart failure (or with heart failure, cardiac insufficiency), cardiomyopathy, valvular heart disease (including heart valves or), cardiovascular neurosis, palpitations, chest apoplexy, angina pectoris, chest pain, chest tightness, heart-qi deficiency, insomnia, myocardium, cardiovascular.Results:The sum of cardiovascular-related medical literature in OASIS databases is0.5%of cardiovascular medicine literature in CNKI database. Traditional Korean Medicine cardiovascular-related medical literature emphasize on hypertension (40.4%), followed by hyperlipidemia (17.1%), myocardium (14.6%), atherosclerosis (6.5%), insomnia (4.9%), cardiovascular (4.3%) and so on. The proportion of Chinese literature is hypertension (19.1%), myocardium (17.1%), coronary heart disease (11.6%), hyperlipidemia (8.2%), cardiovascular (8.0%), arrhythmias (7.5%).Conclusion:in the Traditional Korean Medical literature search result, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, atherosclerosis and other diseases with easily observable indicators rank top, which is consistent with the result of the medical literature search, but myocardium, cardiovascular and other keywords with strong coverage ratio rank front, maybe it is related with the high proportion of Korean medical research experiments. Rating of coronary heart diseases is after that of Traditional Chinese Medicine, which is the obvious difference. This may be because proportion of Han Yang Fang Association dignosisis low and the period of implementation is short, and consultation rates patient suffering coronary heart disease and other diseases based on Western inspection treatment is low. Cardiovascular-related literature of Chinese medicine distribute more evenly than the Korean medicine, so the curve is relatively slow. In general, the traditional medical research of two countries are quite different in size (the amount of Korean cardiovascular medicine literature is0.005%of Chinese medicine), but ratio of population of workers engaged in Chinese medicine and cardiovascular medicine literature is almost the same (Korean Medicine2.92%:Chinese medicine2.12%), so it can be considered that difference in the number result from difference of the whole scale of traditional medicine. Main diseases both countries study are hypertension, hyperlipidemia and other common diseases. Research of coronary heart disease in China is significantly more than in Korean, which maybe result from that Chinese medicine is more closely related with Western medicine. In terms of research scope, Chinese medicine has wider range, more clinical studies, more integrative research of Chinese and Western medicine, while Korean medical literature relatively focus on SaSang medicine, Korean medicine specialty treatments and so on. |
