Academician Zhang Boli: Interpreting the mechanism of Chinese medicine against the new coronavirus with modern science

Academician Zhang Boli: Use modern science to interpret the mechanism of Chinese medicine against the new coronavirus.

"Existing data show that Chinese patients with new coronary pneumonia are rarely re-hospitalized after recovery, and the serious complications are significantly lower than those abroad
.

" On July 6, at the Xiangshan Science Conference, Zhang Boli, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, said that China's new crown rehabilitation The incidence of severe illness and the rate of rehospitalization among the patients are significantly lower than those in foreign countries.

In fact, in the diagnosis and treatment of other diseases in the past, many evidence-based evaluations have also confirmed the efficacy of Chinese medicine
.

For example, the evidence-based evaluation of traditional Chinese medicine for the prevention of myocardial infarction uses major cardiovascular events as outcome indicators.
Qishenyiqi dripping pills made of effective components such as astragalus, salvia and notoginseng can not only produce the same effect as aspirin, but also It is still effective for aspirin resistant people, and can stabilize blood vessel plaques, which is especially suitable for the elderly
.

This result was obtained through a controlled trial in line with international norms in 16 branch centers, 88 hospitals, 3505 patients, and an average follow-up of 37 months

How to use modern science to interpret the therapeutic mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine in the "battle" against the new coronavirus?

In order to obtain an internationally recognized answer to this question, and to explain the effects of Chinese medicine in the internationally accepted pharmaceutical language, the Ministry of Science and Technology has established a special basic research project, one of which is to study the use of Chinese medicine in the epidemic to treat new coronary pneumonia based on immunomodulation.

The research team includes not only the team of Academician Zhang Boli , but also the team of Academician Zhong Nanshan, the team of the Chinese Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, and high-level scientific research teams in Wuhan and other places

According to reports, after a year and a half of research, it has initially revealed that traditional Chinese medicine inhibits virus replication, regulates immune disorders, controls inflammatory storms, and protects tissue organ functions, and other comprehensive multi-target effects, but it mainly regulates immune inflammatory response.
Its core The target site is the "eye of the storm" IL-6 (Interleukin-6)
.

In addition, the research on the group-effect relationship of the effective components has been done, and efforts have been made to make the medicinal substance and the mechanism of action relatively clear, knowing the reason, but also knowing the reason

"When it comes to Chinese medicine, everyone will first think of it as old.
It is indeed old, but many of its concepts are not behind
.

The frontiers of modern medicine talk about system science, precision medicine, preventive medicine, and combination medicine.

In addition to Bell academician said the epidemic prevention and control are effective, integrative medicine, Western medicine and respond to outbreaks and unusual in other countries also with China, worth a genuineness of Versailles -

"Traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine complement each other and develop in harmony, which is a significant advantage of China's health industry

It is not only anti-epidemic, but also other chronic diseases and major diseases.
