This paper presented a research supposition of“documents retrieval, extraction of marine medicine cases, establishment of case database, statistic analysis, data mining, herb pair Game Theory model establishment, herb pair usage under fixed dosage and matching, in order to explore a new idea of researching marine medicine combined with Game Theory. Through the literature retrieval and text extraction, 458 cases with the herb pair ofLong-Gu (LG) andMu-Li(ML) were received to establish the partnership game model. The iterative removals of strictly dominated strategies were adopted. Assuming that LG and ML used with an equal amount of 30 g was the best response, which reached the Nash equilibrium. The results suggested that dosages of LG and ML used equally at the amount of 30 g, 25 g, 24 g, 20 g, 18 g, 15 g were rationalizable strategies. Frequencies of using an equal amount of 30 g LG and ML was the most of mathematical statistics. LG and ML of 30 g were used equivalently to treat symptoms such as insomnia, inappetence, chills, tinnitus, physically and mentally fatigued, spontaneous sweating and night sweating, and so on with the effect of tranquilizing and constricting. The results can be validated and complemented among association rules analysis, mathematical statistics and game model. It implied that it was feasible to apply mathematical statistics and data mining in combination with Game Theory to study the marine medicine herb pair.

Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is considered as an intermediate clinical state between normal aging and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The cognitive function and life ability of patients are normal, which have not met the criteria of AD. MCI is considered to be an earlier stage of AD. The clinical effects of AD in the middle or late stage are unsatisfactory. Therefore, studies on MCI have become the hot research areas both at home and abroad. The therapy of MCI is similar to AD. The treatment effect is uncertain. Hence, the understanding and treatment of MCI by TCM reflected TCM features. This article reviewed on TCM understanding of MCI, TCM syndrome differentiation criteria and TCM treatment methods of MCJ. Thus, it was aimed to further understand the dynamic of MCI in order to provide references for improving TCM clinical effects and reducing the incidence of AD.

This study aimed to analyze the effect of the external method of tonifying kidney and promoting blood circulation on endometrial morphology of rats with kidney deficiency and blood stasis model. A total of 50 normal healthy unmated female SD rats of proestrus were selected with vaginal smear. Rats were randomly divided into the blank group, model group, high dose group and low dose group with the prescription of tonifying kidney and promoting blood circulation and theWu-Zi (WZ) group. Except the blank group, intragastric administration of hydroxyurea was given to other group to establish the kidney deficiency model. Meanwhile, clyster of distilled water was given to the blank group and the model group. And clyster of high dose and low dose prescription of tonifying kidney and promoting blood circulation was given to the high dose and low dose group, respectively. The intragastric administrations ofWu-Zi Yan-Zong(WZYZ) pills were given to theWu-Zi (WZ) group. On the 4th day of pregnancy, 10% of the macromolecule dextran was quickly injected to the caudal vein to induce blood stasis model 1 hour after the last medication administration. The uterus tissue section was observed by HE dyeing. The results showed that the thickness of covering epithelium of endometrium in the model group was lower than the blank group (P < 0.05). There were significant differences on the thickness of covering epithelium of endometrium in the high dose group and low dose group with the prescription of tonifying kidney and promoting blood circulation, the WZ group and the model group (P < 0.01). The sum of gland number and gland area as well as the maximum diameter / minimum diameter of the model group was significantly lower than that of the blank group (P< 0.05, orP < 0.01). The shape factor was the closest to “1”, which had significant difference compared with the blank group (P < 0.01). Compared with the model group, the sum of gland number and glandular lumen of the high dose and low dose group were increased at different levels (P < 0.05, orP < 0.01). The sum of gland number, glandular lumen area, shape factor, and maximum diameter / minimum diameter of WZ group had significant difference compared with the model group (P < 0.05, orP < 0.01). The sum of interstitial cells’ nucleus area, integral optical density of interstitial cells’ nucleus and number of interstitial blood vessels in the high dose and low dose group were significantly higher compared to the model group (P < 0.05, orP < 0.01). The sum of interstitial cells’ nucleus area and the integral optical density of interstitial cells’ nucleus in the WZ group were obviously higher than the model group (P < 0.01). It was concluded that the external method of tonifying kidney and promoting blood circulation can effectively improve the endometrial morphology of kidney-deficiency and blood-stasis rat model, promote the synchronous development of endometrial gland and stroma, in order to play a role to improve the endometrial receptivity.
