辛味中药在治疗消渴证中的应用价值及中药五味理论现代研究的思考

辛味是中药五味学说中的重要性味之一,通常具有“发散”“行气”和“行血”的作用,且辛味中药在传统医学临床应用中占有较大比例。结合中药辛味的功效内涵及传统中医理论对消渴证的认识,阐述辛味中药与消渴证治疗之间的内在联系,总结辛味中药对“消渴三消”的治疗意义与价值。并在此基础上,对中药五味理论的现代研究趋势和发展方向进行思考,为同行研究提供参考。     

宋元时期泉州港在中医药文化对外交流中的作用

泉州港古称“刺桐港”,是一座千年古港,为中国古代海上“丝绸之路”的起点,在宋元时期发展繁荣,成为“东方第一大港”,对中国及世界各国的经济发展、文化传播均有重大影响。本研究从宋元时期泉州港发展鼎盛的原因入手,通过泉州港与各国进出口各种药材,海外诸国人员来泉州以及闽商通过泉州港远航海外三方面史料论述泉州港在宋元繁荣时期促进了中医药同海外的交流、发展和传播的事实。以期通过研究中医药在宋元时期发展传播,启发读者学习和发展中医药,并借助“一带一路”之机来传播中医药文化。     

Health Implications and Counseling Considerations for Individuals With Piercings and Tattoos

Body art has become common and mainstream. Tattoos and body piercings represent highly individual expressions of identity and personal values. Health care services are enhanced when clinicians understand the anatomy and physiology, common discomforts, and real but rare serious risks of body modification and are prepared to provide compassionate support for individuals’ choices. Special consideration must be given to the needs of childbearing women. By opening channels of communication, clinicians can engage with clients in shared decision making to help those who possess or desire body art take steps to reduce the risk of adverse effects and obtain prompt and effective medical care when problems arise. Through respectful discussion of existing body art, the therapeutic relationship is strengthened, and greater insight into an individual’s health needs may be achieved.

Evolution and path models in human behavioral genetics

The evolutionary implications of the path-analysis model most often used in human behavior genetics are examined. With directional selection, a model of pure vertical environmental transmission does not respond in a fully adaptive fashion. Unless the coefficients of transmission are exactly 0.50, the population mean will not equilibrate at the selective optimum over time. If there is both genetic and vertical environmental transmission, then the population mean can equilibrate at the selective optimum. In the presence of genetic transmission, vertical environmental transmission increases population fitness and has a strong effect on the rapid movement of the mean toward the selective optimum. This raises the intriguing paradox of why empirical evidence suggests that vertical environmental transmission is usually small when it possesses such important fitness properties.This work was supported in part by Grant DA05131 from the National Institute on Drug Abuse.     

Multicultural Health Care in Practice

This study presents a first assessment of the challenges faced by Dutch health care providers dealing with the increasing cultural diversity in Dutch society. Qualitative interviews with 24 Dutch caregivers and policy-makers point to a number of important difficulties encountered when confronted with the growing diversity of patient populations. The study focuses explicitly on the challenges health care providers perceive in their direct interactions with patients. On the basis of the observations of the 24 respondents five strategies were formulated to improve the delivery of care in a multicultural environment. Their findings were further evaluated by confronting the empirical data with care-ethical notions (attentiveness, responsibility, competence, and responsiveness) and intercultural communication-theory.
