This paper analyzes the cultural features in the titles of ancient traditional Chinese medical works and how do they affect the translation of these titles into English.explores the methods with which culture-rich titles of these works are rendered based on culture translating skills including transplantation.annotation,paraphrase and substitution with examples,and finally concludes several principles for translation of ancient traditional Chinese medical works into English.

Autophagy is a classical regulatory mechanism of energy metabolism and self-update system in the maintenance of the intracellular homeostasis and cell development. Autophagy has been recently found to play a role in tumor development. Autophagy regulates tumor formation, proliferation, metastasis, and metabolism. At the same time, the anticancer drugs formed with autophagic mediators have been used in the treatment, which suggested that improving autophagy activity to inhibit tumor has become a new way for cancer treatment of cancer patients. This article gives an overview of the regulatory mechanism of autophagy, the relationship between autophagy and tumor, and tumor therapy by targeting autophagy.

Objective To observe the effectiveness of treating essential thrombocytosis(ET) with Buyang Huanwu Decoction plus hydroxyurea. Methods 120 patients with ET were randomly divided into observation group(OG) and control group(CG). Patients from OG were treated with Buyang huanwu decoction plus hydroxyurea, while those from CG were given hydroxyurea. After 6 months, the treatment effectiveness indexes including symptoms in a sense of chinese medicine, cell counts and saffy were observed. Results Total effective rate of OG was higher than that of CG(P<0.05). TCM symptoms remission in OG group was better than that of CG(P<0.05). After treatment, blood platelet count and megakaryocyte count were decreased in two groups(P<0.05), and the difference between two groups was signiifcan(P<0.05). Conclusion The therapy combined Chinese and western medicine deals with ET is better than simple western medicine treatment.

ObjectiveTo assess China’s newly evolved hot spots and novelty of structural electronic medical record in TCM field.Methods Articles about electronic medical record in TCM field were retrieved from CNKI from January 2000 to December 2015, focusing on researchers, research institutes, and key words for bibliometric analysis. Then visualization software CiteSpace was used to establish co-occurrence network.ResultsThe top 3 productive authors were LIU Bao-yan (13 articles), ZHANG Run-shun (8 articles), XIE Qi (7 articles), and ZHOU Xue-zhong (7 articles). Institutes highly cooperated with others included China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Information Engineering College of Hubei University of Chinese Medicine and The First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Chinese Medicine. The major clusters were TCM diagnosis (#0), China’s TCM information (#1), artificial intelligence (#2), medical record management (#3), and medical laboratory department (#4). The representative keywords involved electronic medical record, TCM hospital, data mining, telemedicine, and artificial intelligence. ConclusionIn the field of TCM electronic medical record, cooperation is not sufficiently facilitated among researchers and institutes. Research hot spots are not formed and novelty is not obvious, which is probably because of the overall status quo for China’s TCM information construction.
