Based on the wide clinical applications, accumulating investigations about HLJDD focused on several aspects: (1) chemical analysis to explore the underlying substrates responsible for the therapeutic efects; (2) further determination of pharmacological actions and the possible mechanisms of the whole prescrip- tion and of those representative ingredients to provide scientifc evidence for traditional clinical applications and to demonstrate the intriguing molecular targets for specifc pathological processes; (3) pharmacokinetic feature studies of single or all components of HLJDD to reveal the chemical basis and synergistic actions contributing to the pharma- cological and clinically therapeutic efects. In this review, we summarized the main achievements of phytochemical, pharmacological and pharmacokinetic profles of HLJDD and its herbal or pharmacologically active chemicals, as well as our understanding which further reveals the signifcance of HLJDD clinically.

  • Tibet an Medicine and Biomedicine
    TIBETAN MEDICINE AND BIOMEDICINE: EPISTEMOLOGICAL CONFLICTS, PRACTICAL SOLUTIONS' GEOFFREY B. SAMUEL Abstract The western adaptation of non-western medical systems and traditions is a complex process that takes place at a variety of different levels. In many practical medical contexts, epistemological issues receive little attention. Both patients and practitioners may switch frameworks relatively freely, without much concern about underlying theoretical assumptions. Epistemological issues may be more central elsewhere, for example in regard to the licens­ ing and approval of practitioners and medicinal substances, or in terms of the rethinking of western models of knowledge to include new insights from these non-western sources. I suggest in this paper that the major learned medical traditions of Asia, such as ayurveda and traditional Chinese med­ icine and traditional Tibetan medicine, for all their differences from bio­ medicine and among each other, are in some respects relatively compatible with western biomedical understandings. They can be read in physiological terms, as referring to a vocabulary of bodily processes that underlie health and disease. Such approaches, however, marginalise or exclude elements that disrupt this compatibility (e.g. references to divinatory procedures, spirit attack or flows of subtle 'energies'). Other non-western healing practices, such as those in which spirit attack, 'soul loss' or 'shamanic' procedures are more central, are less easily assimilated to biomedical models, and may simply be dismissed as incompatible with modern scientific understandings. Rather than assenting to physiological reduction in the one case, and dis­ missal as pre-scientific in the other, we should look for a wider context of understanding within which both kinds of approach can be seen as part of a coherent view of human beings and human existence.

  • Educational Importance of Acupuncture and Moxibustion: a Survey at the Tokai University School of Medicine Japan
    Tokai J Exp Clin Med., Vol. 41, No. 2, pp. 76-80, 2016 Educational Importance of Acupuncture and Moxibustion: A Survey at the Tokai University School of Medicine Japan Masanori TAKASHI*1, Yoshinobu NAKADA*2, Katsuhiko ARAI*2 and Makoto ARAI*2 *1 Office of acupuncture and moxibustion Tokai University Oiso hospital *2 Department of Kampo Medicine, Tokai University School of Medicine (Received March 1, 2016; Accepted March 29, 2016) Objective: Acupuncture and moxibustion are categories of Japanese traditional medicine (Kampo). Precise teaching of Kampo is one of the important issues in medical education, and therefore acupuncture and moxibustion education has been applied to students in Tokai University School of Medicine. To investigate and compare the awareness the medical students have of acupuncture and moxibustion before and after the education, we conducted questionnaire surveys. Methods: The questionnaires were distributed to 117 fourth-year students before and after the education. Results: Of the 117 students issued surveys, 111 responded before, 115 after, and 109 both before and after the education program. Before the education, 79% of the respondents were interested in acupuncture and moxibustion, and 67%, 73%, and 80% thought they were effective, necessary, and worth learning. These results were increased to 92%, 95%, 94% and 97% after the education, respectively (p<0.001 in all four com- parisons). Although 9% said they would perform acupuncture and moxibustion in their routines proactively before the education, after the education this increased to 24% (p<0.001), and 43% supposed that they would definitely introduce patients to acupuncturists. Conclusion: Medical students’ awareness improved after the education, which demonstrated importance of the acupuncture and moxibustion education in medical school.

Epilepsy is a brain disorder which affects about 50 million people worldwide. Ineffectiveness of the drugs in some cases and the serious side effects and chronic toxicity of the antiepileptic drugs lead to use of herbal medicine as a form of complementary and alternative medicine. In this review modern evidences for the efficacy of antiepileptic medicinal plants in Traditional Iranian Medicine (TIM) will be discussed. For this purpose electronic databases including PubMed, Scopus, Sciencedirect, and Google Scholar were searched for each of the antiepileptic plants during 1970-February 2013.Anticonvulsant effect of some of the medicinal plants mentioned in TIM like Anacyclus pyrethrum, Pimpinella anisum, Nigella sativa, and Ferula gummosa was studied with different models of seizure. Also for some of these plants like Nigella sativa or Piper longum the active constituent responsible for antiepileptic effect was isolated and studied.

ABSTRACT Traditional medicines are generally available, affordable and commonly used as self-care treatments. However, their inaccurate utilization can results in adverse events, or unfavourable outcomes. Individuals may consult both traditional healer practitioners (THPs) and biomedically trained healthcare professionals (BHPs) for their infections. This study aimed at determining whether any antimicrobial resistance and treatment failure could occur among patients, attending outpatient departments of selected healthcare facilities, who used concurrently prescribed antimicrobial and traditional medicines. A survey was conducted to assess the perceptions, knowledges, attitudes and beliefs of respondents on the concurrent use of traditional and prescribed medicines for infections. 132 respondents were included namely THPs, THP’s patients, BHPs and BHP’s outpatients. A small number of medicinal plants were used in the treatment of infections and 65.62% of both THPs and their patients (21/32) reported mixing different herbs for the treatment of infections.

    The School of Traditional Iranian Medicine The Definiton, Origin and Advantages Moshen NASERI*, Mohammad Reza Shams ARDAKANI** * MD, Ph.D, Assoc. Prof. Department of Pharmacology, Faculty of Medicine, Shahed University, Iran ** Pharm D. Ph.D, Assoc. Prof. Department of Pharmacogenosy, Faculty of Pharmacy, Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Iran e-mail: [email protected] Summary Traditional Iranian Medicine (TIM) consists of the sum total of all the knowledge and practices used in diagnosis, prevention and elimination in Persia from ancient times to now, from generation to generation relying exclusively on practical experience and obser- vation handed down from generation to generation. TIM roots go back to over 2000 years ago and it is not too bold to go even fur- ther and claim that the Persians taught the Greeks the elements of that system of medicine, which has been known ever since as Greek medicine. Traditional medicine has special advantages with respect to all the imported medical systems; since it is considered as part of the people's culture; and has a significant role in solving some of the cultural issues of health. Simply, traditional medicine can be a good assistant and help to the scientific and universal medicine. Introduction, development, and promotion of traditional medicine are a respect and honor to the culture and heritage of the people all around the world. Key Words; Traditional Iranian Medicine, Iran, Persia. The School of TIM Howard-Jones has written in the World Health TIM (1) is a school that views the world as a good Organization (WHO) magazine of 1972 "the most and seeking discipline created by the wise and omnis- important editor of medical books in Islam was Abu cient Almighty (2); and has named the physician a Ali Al Hosein Ibn Sina .
