According to “Science and Technology Daily,” Influenza A H1N1 influenza outbreak at the beginning, people place their hopes in the vaccine. However, recently there have been experts, the virus will have in the dissemination of the process of mutation, the virus vaccine is often not keep up with changes. The face of the continuing spread of the epidemic, the public attention once again to focus on in “SARS” in the outstanding performance of Chinese medicine. So —
July 1, Beijing, Chaoyang District, an elementary school students in seven infected with influenza A H1N1 influenza, which is Beijing’s first appeared at a local single point of aggregation of the epidemic outbreak of a stream. In the previous few days, Denmark found a case of the Tamiflu influenza drug resistant cases of H1N1 influenza, which is so far the first time found that the drug-resistant viruses.
Influenza A H1N1 influenza outbreak at the beginning, people place their hopes in the vaccine. However, recently there have been experts, the virus will have in the dissemination of the process of mutation, the virus vaccine is often not keep up with changes.
The face of the continuing spread of the epidemic, the public attention once again to focus on in “SARS” in the outstanding performance of Chinese medicine.
Henan College of chief physician, the “National Medical Master” Professor Li Zhenhua and many other experts believe that sexually transmitted diseases, such as for hot-SARS, influenza, Japanese encephalitis, hand, foot and mouth disease, avian flu, measles, etc., traditional Chinese medicine for patients with syndrome characterized by the dialectical giving of treatment, there are indeed effective.
However, in-line, traditional Chinese medicine treatment of Influenza A H1N1 influenza can also controversial. So, in the end of Chinese medicine treatment of Influenza A H1N1 influenza can do?
A stream identification
Chinese medicine can identify influenza A H1N1 influenza?
Capital Medical University Beijing Chinese Medicine Hospital, deputy director of respiratory disease expert Dr. Wang analyzed that the ancient medical books Although there is no influenza A H1N1 influenza disease name, but “when the line of a cold,” with its similar to influenza tract infection Immunotoxin of gas, its incidence dramatically, infection is stronger, the crowd generally susceptible.
Knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine for infectious diseases is gradually in-depth. Wang believes that in patients with influenza A H1N1 influenza drugs primarily for the passage of hot folders table or wet heat toxin, its clinical manifestations, fever, aversion to cold, rather then the chills, stuffy nose, head and body pain, Mianchi, pharynx red, cough, etc. ; general pulse, normal or red tongue, thin white or yellow moss. Of course, in determining when the traditional Chinese medicine, but also with epidemiological history, clear whether the patient visited the affected areas or contact with patients with influenza A H1N1. Meanwhile, laboratory blood tests are still very necessary.
Five and Six Qi in traditional Chinese medicine theory, for the prevention and treatment of the disease have made outstanding contributions. According to five and Six gas theory is a special combination of climate change every year and put forward corresponding measures for the prevention and treatment of disease and thus an evident result. The doctrine, in 2009 for the toast is too wet days, the sun Kansui in the spring. Because every year has been A, line land transport, and are thus transported rustic earth years. This year’s wet weather in order to mainly rely on the wet type is exogenous.
Five and Six gas theory in the “Plain Questions to the larger theory of truth” in that its treatment of principle: “Shao Zhi-sheng, governance in order to Xin cold, combined with brackish to Gan rule.” Therefore, Influenza A H1N1 influenza prevention and treatment option belongs to Xin Han Chinese herbal medicine, bitter cold, salty cold, Gan Han drugs.
A flow prevention
Can traditional Chinese medicine to prevent influenza A H1N1 influenza?
As we all know, Chinese medicine practitioners emphasize a holistic view of system theory, Differential Treatment. Wang, for example, Chinese medicine that “evil by Minato, their gas will empty” is “more than the first incidence of the infirm.” Therefore, prevention of infectious diseases should be focused on this population. “Virtual evil thieves wind, and avoid the sometimes” TCM attaches great importance to protection, suggested to “avoid the poison gas, days Hin never”, “Brother incidence Er Shi Di, he settled down” these are the isolation recommendations.
“An ounce of treating disease,” TCM does not focus on disease prevention before, so that “first, an unaffected evil dirty.” For the “first proof”, now people are misunderstanding. Some media reports, the former section of Canton and other drugs out of stock Banlangen granules. Many consumers to move bags of Banlangen home, regardless of illness without disease, the whole family along with families to drink every day. Capital Medical University Beijing Chinese Medicine Hospital disease control expert Professor Xu Chunjun remind prevent influenza lies in their own conditioning, enhance immunity, if the medication must be symptomatic. For example, “all of the dry weather in northern China, personal breathing Cou arguments between the dryness of both also”, “South of Heaven and Earth are wet gasification, personal breathing Cou wetting are also among the reasons” why drug prevention must be a result of human because when we go from place to place.
Treatment of a Stream
Can Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment of Influenza A H1N1 influenza?
In recent years, at home and abroad for the medicine of anti-influenza virus experimental results show that different anti-viral immune mechanism of Chinese medicine are not identical. Some Chinese medicine by improving the non-specific immunity, cytokine synthesis and release, to anti-virus purposes. There are some species can inhibit viral replication or directly to the eradication of the virus, or will they inhibit apoptosis in virus-infected cells and so on. These studies delve deeply into the traditional Chinese medicine modulating mechanism of antiviral immunity was provided. The complexity of the composition of traditional Chinese medicine can be made through multiple channels play a role.
Wang introduction, we are familiar with forsythia, honeysuckle, wild chrysanthemum, berberine, baicalin, Daqingye Qingrejiedu categories such as traditional Chinese medicine, have a direct antiviral activity. They are mostly flavonoids or flavonoid-containing substances, the substance can inhibit influenza virus sialidase activity. Has an indirect antiviral activity of single taste of Chinese medicine is mainly by regulating the body’s immune function to achieve the indirect effect of anti-influenza virus. Such as Astragalus can increase the number of leukocytes in peripheral blood of multicore enhance mononuclear phagocyte system function, enhance cellular immune function in two-way adjustment, enhance humoral immunity, induced interferon and other cytokines.
Capital Medical University Beijing hospital for Chinese medicine treatment of influenza in the course of many years, the creation of positive clinical effect of Yin Qi mixture. Wang said that any respiratory virus replication Jiewei cells multiply in the blood and body fluids where the time is short, so the blood concentrations of heat-clearing and detoxifying drugs no matter how high is also difficult to inactivate the virus. Yiqiyangyin nutrition, and Strengthening of the goods Jieke cells from virus attacks, has been completed into the propagation of intracellular replication of the virus due to medication after the release of membrane reinforcement not come out and interrupt transmission.
, Dalian Institute of Virology, the Yin Qi mixture experimental results have shown that a variety of Yin Qi mixture with anti-virus effect, suggesting that its role is that it does not give the virus left the conditions of survival and reproduction, rather than fight like a direct inactivation of virus, .
At present, the relevant state departments are actively organizations about the medical treatment of Influenza A H1N1 influenza-related research, scientific evaluation of prevention and treatment of influenza A Chinese herbal compound the efficacy of Chinese medicine for the treatment of influenza provide the basis and foundation.
