The Research Of The Therapeutic Principle Of Reinforcing The Vital Energy And Consolidating The Constitution

I .The theoratical research of reinforcing the vital energy and consolidating the constitution for the treatment of cancer1. The theoratical connotation of the principle of reinforcing the vitalenergy and consolidating the constitutionThe principle of reinforcing the vital energy and consolidating the constitution is the essential of TCM.The principle of reinforcing the vital energy and consolidating the constitution is an important therapeutic principle of TCM for thousands of years, which comes into being on the basis of the theory of Yin Yang,five elements, viscera-state doctrine , wholism conception,and correspondence between man and universe.For " reinforcing the vital energy " and " consolidating the constitution" ,the vital energy refers to the body function (including viscera, channel and collaterals, Qi and blood etc.) and ablity to resist disease and recovery.The vital energy originates from spleen and kedney.In TCM, the essential of kedney is the basic congenital constitution, and the essential of spleen is the acquired constitution.The two visceras rely on each other.The body condition depends on the congenital constitution and the nourishment after birth.In TCM, the forming and growth of cancer is a course of the struggle between the vital energy and pathogen. 《The internal canon》 said: "If the vital energy are strong,the pathogen could not attack the body." , "The pathogen only attack the body with the deficiency of vital energy" .Doctor Zongzi Li said in the 《medical cases》 : "the formation of tumor is due to the deficiency of vital Qi , which causes the pathogen attacking" . 《TCM surgical cases》 point out "The deficiency of vital energy causes cancer." ,which illustrates the the deficiency of vital energy is the basic reason for cancer. China TCM academy has count up ten representative medical works, among them the prescriptions for cancer are 918, and the tonifying prescription are 538 , account for 54%. Thus,Putting forward the principle of reinforcing the vital energy and consolidating the constitution and related prescriptions are important ways to study the TCM therapy for cancer.2. The acting mechanism of the herbs of reinforcing vital energy A great numbers of researchs suggests : The herbs of reinforcing the vital energy and consolidating the constitution has multi-targets regulating effects for cancer therapy, which is manifested as (1) improve the body's immunity;(2) inhibit the growth of tumors and induce its differentiation; (3 ) induce apoptosis of tumor cells; (4) change the surface marker of the tumor cell;( 5 ) inhibit the tumor agiogenesis (6 ) inhibit the gene mutation; ( 7 ) influence the telemerase activity; ( 8 ) effect anti- metastasis gene and hormone; (9) influence the membrane of tumor cellII .The analysis of the clinical therapeutic principle of cancer based on reinforcing the vital energy and consolidating the constitution1. The analysis of effective casesThe research of TCM therapeutic principle is a complicated and systematic work.Under the help of my tutor and other doctors of the oncology departmentj have count up all the effective cases at my bests, analized these data and found the usage frequence of the six TCM therapeutic principles are as follows during the patients'treatment: The principle of reinforcing the vital energy and consolidating the constitution (100%) * the principle of clearing away pathogenic heat and removing toxin materials ( 81.4% ) * the principle of activating the blood circlution and removing the blood stasis (61.6%) > the principle of dispelling dampness and eliminating phlegm (43.0%) * the principle of softening the hard mass and resolving the lumps (33.7%) > the principle of using poison as antidote ( 14.0% ) . The principle of reinforcing the vital energy and consolidating the constitution has been applied for all the cases,which suggests that the principle of reinforcing the vital energy and consolidating the constitution is the most important therapeutic principle.2. The main clinical experiences of the principle of reinforcing the vital energy and consolidating the constitutionApplying the principle of reinforcing the vital energy and consolidating the constitution should pay attention to the following items: 1, deferentiate the truth and false Although the principle of reinforcing the vital energy and...
