  • TREATMENT of CANCER with CHINESE HERBAL MEDICINE Signe E Beebe DVM, CVA, CVCH, CVT Integrative Veterinary Center Sacramento, California, USA
    TREATMENT OF CANCER WITH CHINESE HERBAL MEDICINE Signe E Beebe DVM, CVA, CVCH, CVT Integrative Veterinary Center Sacramento, California, USA The focus of this discussion is on the use of Chinese herbal medicine to treat cancer. Acupuncture and Chinese food therapy are typically combined with Chinese herbs in the treatment of cancer. In addition, European mistletoe (IscadorR, HelixorR) and other integrative therapies such as intravenous Vitamin C can also be used in combination with Chinese medicine to treat cancer. The incidence of cancer in pet animals has been gradually increasing over the past few decades and the features of cancer (tumor genetics, biological behavior and histopathology) in dogs appear to parallel that of humans (Paoloni, M., Khanna C., Science and Society: Translation of New Cancer Treatments from Pet Dogs to Humans, Nature Review Cancer, 2008:8:147-156). Cancer incidence increases with age and according to the AVMA is the leading cause of death in dogs 10 years of age and older. Several European cancer group registries have been tracking and recording the occurrence of spontaneous tumors in pet animals as well. Cancer or malignant neoplasia is a class of disease that involves tissues with an altered cell population that operates independently of normal cellular controls. Three properties differentiate them from benign tumors; cancers grow uncontrollably, invade and destroy adjacent tissues and can metastasize and spread to other parts of the body via blood and or lymphatic circulation. Cancers consume body resources, grow at the expense of the individual and provide no benefit to the body. The most common cancers reported involved the skin (mast cell tumor), mammary glands (adenocarcinoma) and lymph tissue (lymphoma).

CLIMATIC CONDITIONS OF NEW MEXICO AND OSTEO­ PATHIC TREATMENT FOR TUBERCULOSIS. C. H. CONNER M. D., D.O., ALBUQUERQUE, N. M. TUBERCULOSIS is the most widely spread and general disease afflicting mankind. It prevails in all countries but more in large cities and where the population is massed together. The greatest prevalence of tuberculosis is' found where the residents are confined and restricted in the matter of fresh air and a free, open life; condi­ tions which would favor, on the one hand, the presence of bacilli in the atmos­ phere and on the other, lower the vital resistance of the individual. The etiology of this disease has a wide range of different opinions: her­ editary transmissions, modes of living, climate, the bacillus tuberculosis, in­ fection through the air, milk, meat and other articles of food and lastly, trau­ matism and constitutional peculiarities which I wish to discuss from an osteo­ pathic standpoint. Since the announ('ement by Robt. Koch of Berlin, in 1882 of the specific causative factor of tuberculosis (the so-called bacillus of tuber­ culosis), practically nothing has been accomplished in either limiting or pre­ venting the spread of this great malady. Numberless rem~dies and alleged specifics have been heralded to the world from time to time, such as the differ­ ent concoctions of cod liver oil, creosote and the various poisonous prepara­ tions known as serums.

Remaking Chineseness: The Transition Of Inner Asian Groups In The Central Plain During The Sixteen Kingdoms Period And Northern Dynasties Abstract This dissertation aims to examine the institutional transitions of the Inner Asian groups in the Central Plain during the Sixteen Kingdoms period and Northern Dynasties. Starting with an examination on the origin and development of Sinicization theory in the West and China, the first major chapter of this dissertation argues the Sinicization theory evolves in the intellectual history of modern times. This chapter, in one hand, offers a different explanation on the origin of the Sinicization theory in both China and the West, and their relationships. In the other hand, it incorporates Sinicization theory into the construction of the historical narrative of Chinese Nationality, and argues the theorization of Sinicization attempted by several scholars in the second half of 20th Century. The second and third major chapters build two case studies regarding the transition of the central and local institutions of the Inner Asian polities in the Central Plain, which are the succession system and the local administrative system.

  • Appendix 3 Glossary of Tcm Terminology
    Tony Reid’s Principles of TCM Online Course APPENDIX 3 APPENDIX 3 GLOSSARY OF TCM TERMINOLOGY Introduction The following compilation of TCM terms with explanations of their meaning and alternative readings is not meant to be comprehensive. It has been included for two main reasons. One is to help clarify the meanings of various TCM technical terms that have been used in this text, and as such this mini-glossary may be used as a tool for revising aspects of this course. The other reason is to assist student in correlating the terms used by various authors, and avoid the confusion that may arise when the same thing is referred to by different names in different texts. Therefore, rather than being a thorough exposition on TCM technical terms, the material that follows is mostly focused on terms that are denoted differently by various authors, or those that have been given unclear or conflicting explanations. It is my sincere hope that this will assist students in their reading of the growing body of English language TCM literature.
