With the rapid development of internet and computer technology, the interact has become the richest information resource of the world, and there comes a large potential and broad prospect for the development of internet medium information monitoring. In this paper, we discuss the information monitoring mode of foreign traditional medicine which released by the internet medium. We will discuss the monitoring mode in five steps: automatic information collection-information classification and storage-"human-computer cooperated" data processing and information analysis-dynamic output of information- information feedback.

Based on the literatures in MEDLINE database and EMBASE databases this article has carried out a bibliometrics study on foreign clinical researching institutions of acupuncture and moxibustion to screen those institutions who had more published articles as our major cooperation and exchange objects in the future,hoping for providing information basis of TCM international scientific research.

The novelty research is very important for the new drug declaration. This article points out the methods on how to fill in the application, how to grasp the research content correctly and how to formulate retrieval methods in the process of novelty research.

Objective To explore more effective treatments of Chinese medicine for diabetic nephropathy.Methods This study took opened non-relevant documents knowledge discovery method to study the diabetic nephropathy literatures in order to find the hidden links among literatures. A valuable scientific hypothesis will be put forward upon the study to guide or implement a new knowledge discovery after it acquire the agreement of experts. Results Use keywords frequency statistics method based on open non-related literature knowledge discovery, the anti-inflammatory herbs were filtered out Most herbs with anti-inflammatory effects had the functions of clearing away heat and detoxicating, expelling wind and removing dampness. Conclusion Prescriptions with the functions of clearing away heat and detoxicating, expelling wind and removing dampness may delay the occurrence and development of diabetic nephropathy and play an important role in curing this disease.

Objective To discuss the research status and hotspots related to breeding, planting, harvest, processing and storage of Lycium L. in China. Methods Relevant literature about breeding, planting, harvest, processing and storage of Lycium L. in CNKI from January 2004 to December 2013 was retrieved by computers. CiteSpaceⅡ was introduced to carry out key word analysis, high-frequency key word obtaining, co-occurrence network of high-frequency key words, and dendrogram of high-frequency words. Results Totally 759 articles were included. Key words about breeding were “genetic diversity”, “male sterile”, “its sequence”, “callus issue”, and“anther culture”. Key words about planting were“output”,“quality”,“hard twig cuttage”,“irrigation amount”. Key words about harvesting and processing were“picking machine of Lycium L.”,“drying kiln of Lycium L.”,“hot air drying”, and “combined drying”. Key words about storage were “pesticide residue”, “heavy metal”, and“organophosphorus pesticide”. Co-occurrence network of high-frequency key words showed that the research hotspots were pesticide residue, test of heavy metal and the storage of fresh fruits. Dendrogram of high-frequency key words showed that the high-frequency key words were “package”, “refreshment”, and “lycium barbarum polysaccharide”. Conclusion The research hotspots of planting of Lycium L. are planting skills effecting the output and quality of Lycium L.; In the field of harvesting and processing of Lycium L., design and research of picking machine has replaced traditional manual picking. Modern hot air drying has already replaced traditional drying in the sun or drying skills; In the aspect of storage of Lycium L., the study on the refreshment of Lycium L. has attached attention.

This study was aimed to search and analyze patents of Chinese herb published both at home and abroad in 2010. The Derwent World Patents Index (DWPI) was used as database source. A total of 8 704 Chinese herb patent records were retrieved. And the geographical distribution was concentrated in China. The technological field was mainly on hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, lower back pain, cough and other diseases. Innovations on formulation and preparation method also required special attention. In addition, through the analysis on patent attribution agency, some well-known Chinese enterprises, who aim to gain the initiative in specific technical areas, have actively applied a number of patents in specific areas.
