Abstract:
"State-target medicine" is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) diagnosis and treatment theoretical system proposed by Academician Tong Xiaolin based on the current development of modern medicine. The active stage of gastric ulcer, as a precancerous state of gastric cancer, has a great impact on people's health. Prof. ZHOU Xuewen, a master of TCM, innovatively put forward the theory of "toxicity-heat" etiology for the active stage of gastric ulcer, which plays an important guiding role in clinical diagnosis and treatment. The article took the theoretical system of "state-target medicine" as the framework to explain the rationale, method, formula, and medicine of Prof. ZHOU Xuewen, who applied the Xiaoyong Kuidekang based on the "toxicity-heat" theory to treat the gastric ulcer in the active stage. The Chinese medical name of gastric ulcer, "gastric carbuncle", was established, and it was believed that gastric ulcer is born due to "toxicity" and is based on "toxicity and heat". In the course of the disease, "toxicity", "heat", "deficiency", and "stasis" coexisted, and its pathogenesis was divided into three phases, namely, toxicity-heat accumulation phase, toxicity-heat affecting the health phase, and weakened body resistance and strengthened toxicity phase. According to the positioning of gastric ulcer as an "internal carbuncle", Prof. ZHOU Xuewen proposed the treatment of gastric ulcer in the active stage with "carbuncle theory" and introduced the surgical methods of "elimination", "support", and "tonifying" into the treatment of gastric ulcer in the active stage. Prof. ZHOU Xuewen took "clearing heat and removing toxins, eliminating carbuncle and generating muscle" as the basic treatment of the disease. For different stages of the disease, Prof. ZHOU Xuewen emphasized the use of the methods of clearing heat and removing toxins, supporting rot and muscle growth, and strengthening the spleen and harmonizing the stomach and created the representative formula for the treatment of gastric ulcer in the active stage with "carbuncle theory", namely "Xiaoyong Kuidekang", which could regulate state and targets.
