resources as a basis for selection,and finally choose the medical records that conforming standards.Finally,the database was built.By means of modern statistical analysis,frequency analysis and cluster analysis were made for age,gender,etiological diagnosis,symptoms,syndromes,drug efficacy classification,drug taste and meridian tropism.Finally,the statistical results are combined with the theoretical analysis of traditional Chinese medicine to summarize the rule of the treatment of jaundice and the characteristics of the medicine.Results153 cases were collected in this study.Yellow

bitter,sweet and pungent.Among of them,41.3% of the bitter taste,25.3% of sweet taste and 23.1% of pungent taste.Affected meridians mainly liver meridian,stomach meridian,spleen meridian,lung meridian and heart meridian.The cumulative frequency is up to 75%.It is proved that liver meridian is the main meridian,which is related to the spleen,stomach,heart and lung.By the result of cluster analysis,medicinals in the core group were shown in the following: Radix Paeoniae Rubra,Poria,Herba Artemisiae Scopariae,Radix Etrhizoma Rhei,Fructus Gardeniae,Radix Glycyrrhizae,Cortex Moutan,Radix Curcumae,Radix Bupleuri,Scutellaria Baicalensis Georgi,Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae,Radix Puerariae.It based on Yinchenhao decotion,combine with heatclearing medicinals,dampness-draining medicinals,tonifying medicinals and activating blood medicinals.ConclusionThe famous veteran doctors of TCM has accumulated rich clinical experience in the treatment of jaundice through theoretical application and clinical practice,and has certain advantages and characteristics in the aspect of medication.Jaundice is mainly in the liver and gallbladder,which is related to the spleen and stomach.The classification of drug efficacy mainly included heat-clearing medicinals,dampness-draining medicinals and tonifying medicinals.Drugs which is commonly used are Radix Paeoniae Rubra,Poria,Herba Artemisiae Scopariae,Radix Etrhizoma Rhei,Fructus Gardeniae,Radix Glycyrrhizae,Cortex Moutan,Radix Curcumae,Radix Bupleuri,Scutellaria Baicalensis Georgi,Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae,Radix Puerariae. |
