This method uses directly two dimensional information, and pro- vides a scheme for dealing with various kinds of specific cases in a uniform way. In this method, components are drawn in guided and redundant way and reductions are made level by level just in accordance with the com- ponent combination relations of Chinese characters. The method provides also polysemous grammars, coexisting grammars and structure inferrings which constrain redundant recognition by comparison among similar characters or components and greatly increase the tolerance ability to distortion.展开更多

The patients of acute bronchitis were randomly divided into 2 groups. In the observation group, there were 36 cases, who were treated with the integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine, primarily the pricking-cupping method on Back-shu points; while in the control group, there were 29 cases who were given the conventinal treatment of western medicine. All the 2 groups were treated for 7 days as one treating course. Results： The total effective rate of the observation group was 97.2% while that of the control group was 82,8%, so there is a significant difference between them. On the first and third days the clinical manifestations were more satisfactorily improved in the treatment group than in the control group （P 〈 0.01） and on the fifth and seventh days, the comparison showed no significant difference （P〉0.05）. Conclusion： The treatment of acute bronchitis by means of the integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine primarily with pricking-cupping method on Back-shu points is of marked therapeutic effect, simple manipulation, and little untoward effects, thus claiming the unique advantage.展开更多

METHODS: In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study, 244 patients with insomnia were randomly assigned to a placebo group, a low-dose (10 mL/day), or a high-dose (20 mL/day) mistura group. Efficacy was assessed by using the sleep dysfunction rating scale (SDRS) and Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) scores. Safety and tolerability assessments included emergent adverse events, laboratory tests, and electrocardiograms. RESULTS: Total SDRS scores decreased in all three groups, and there were significant differences between the placebo group and the lowand high-dose mistura groups (P=0.000). CGI-I ratings in the lowand high-dose mistura groups were sig-nificantly better than that of the placebo group (P= 0.000). Incidences of rebound insomnia were similar in all three groups (placebo group: 6.94% , low-dose mistura group: 12.99% , and high-dose mistura group: 10.96% ; P=0.475). The efficacy of Huadananshen mistura in the lowor high-dose group was significantly better than that of the placebo group (P=0.000), but with no significant difference found between the lowand high-dose mistura groups (P=0.887). The rates of adverse events were similar in the three groups (placebo 2.44% , low-dose mistura 0%, and high-dose mistura 5%; P=0.088). CONCLUSION: Huadananshen mistura is an effective and generally well-tolerated hypnotic medicine for the treatment of Chinese patients with insomnia.展开更多
