Objective:In view of the complexity of the "Prescription-Formula-Dosage-Property" relationship of Tibetan medicine and the outstanding common relationship，it is difficult to reveal the hidden and specific rules of clinical medication of Tibetan medicine. Method:Based on the attribute partial order structure and the vector structure model of "Ro-Nus-Zhu-Rjes"（Taste，Post-Digestive Tastes and Potency），clustering analysis and other methods and software，this study analyzed the "Prescription-Formula-Dosage-Property" relationship of 184 commonly used prescriptions in the 1995 edition of the standards issued by the Ministry of Tibetan medicine（SIMTM）. Result:Among them，the analysis of the relationship between prescription and formula found that 11 prescriptions with the largest common attribute，such as Chebulae Fructus and Carthami Flos，were the key components of classification and compatibility，which could effectively classify the 8 kinds of prescriptions for the treatment of lung disease，tripa disease and blood fever. Among them，the san Yin and auxiliary viscera function prescriptions，such as Sanguotang powder and Liuwei Liangyao powder，had the strongest commonality. According to the analysis of relationship between formula and dosage ，the dosage of Chebulae Fructus，Carthami Flos，pomegranate seed，Phyllanthi Fructus was the highest，which suggested that these drugs were often used as primary drugs，while the Liuwei Liangyao powder，such as Amomi Fructus Rotundus and Tsaoko Fructus，had a higher frequency but a lower dose，which mainly played a role in regulating the overall drug property of the prescription and protecting the viscera. The Tibetan medicine-specific drugs including Moschus，Bovis Calculus，and Zhaxun，which were used in a high frequency but very low dose，had the effect of enhancing the drug property and guiding the affected part. According to the analysis of the relationship between dosage and property，there were many prescriptions belonging to cool nature，accounting for 75.6%. It was found that 67 prescriptions did not conform to the efficacy due to their different dosage. Conclusion:There are many common components and common usages in Tibetan medicine prescriptions. If these common associations are not treated，it will lead to the result that all diseases take these common associations as the core，but the hidden key factors cannot be solved. Therefore，it is necessary to pay attention to sensitivity and specificity at the multi-dimensional level of "prescription-formula-dosage-property"，so as to reveal the clinical medication thought of Tibetan medicine more effectively.

This study aimed to explore the underlying framework and data characteristics of Tibetan prescription information. The information on Tibetan medicine prescriptions was collected based on 11 Tibetan medicine classics, such as Four Medical Canons(Si Bu Yi Dian). The optimal classification method was used to summarize the information structure of Tibetan medicine prescriptions and sort out the key problems and solutions in data collection, standardization, translation, and analysis. A total of 11 316 prescriptions were collected, involving 139 011 entries and 63 567 pieces of efficacy information of drugs in prescriptions. The information on Tibe-tan medicine prescriptions could be summarized into a "seven-in-one" framework of "serial number-source-name-composition-efficacy-appendix-remarks" and 18 expansion layers, which contained all information related to the inheritance, processing, origin, dosage, semantics, etc. of prescriptions. Based on the framework, this study proposed a "historical timeline" method for mining the origin of prescription inheritance, a "one body and five layers" method for formulating prescription drug specifications, a "link-split-link" method for constructing efficacy information, and an advanced algorithm suitable for the research of Tibetan prescription knowledge discovery. Tibetan medicine prescriptions have obvious characteristics and advantages under the guidance of the theories of "three factors", "five sources", and "Ro-nus-zhu-rjes" of Tibetan medicine. Based on the characteristics of Tibetan medicine prescriptions, this study proposed a multi-level and multi-attribute underlying data architecture, providing new methods and models for the construction of Tibetan medicine prescription information database and knowledge discovery and improving the consistency and interoperability of Tibetan medicine prescription information with standards at all levels, which is expected to realize the "ancient and modern connection-cleaning up the source-data sharing", so as to promote the informatization and modernization research path of Tibetan medicine prescriptions.

This study aimed to explore the rule of Tibetan medicine in clinical treatment of hypertension( k Hrag-rLung-stod-vtshangs) and analyze the characteristics of its prescriptions. One hundred and thirty-seven cases of hypertension treated Tibetan medicine were collected. Data mining,Gephi,Cytoscape and other methods and software were used to analyze the characteristics of Tibetan medicine. The results showed that there were 44 cases of r Lung-type hypertension in clinical medical records,while 57 cases of k Hrag-type hypertension. There were 103 treatment prescriptions. The frequency of these prescriptions covered Twenty-five Yuganzi Pills( 96 times),Seventy Pearl Pills( 80 times),Eight Chenxiang Pills( 75 times),and Sanwei Ganlu Powder( 62 times),and they were highly correlated,with confidence greater than 95%. There were 332 prescriptions involved in the prescriptions which is core prescription medicines. This study first proposed the dosage analysis method of Tibetan medicine prescription medicines,and obtained the more dosage of Chebulae Fructus,Phyllanthi Fructus,Aucklandiae Radix,Aquilariae Lignum Resinatum and so on. The correlation analysis of the prescription medicines found that Carthami Flos,Myristicae Semen,Bambusae Concretio Silicea,Caryophylli Flos,Amomi Fructus Rotundus led by Tsaoko Fructus had a high correlation and a confidence greater than 75%. These herbs were guaranteed when Tibetan medicine was used in combination. The key drugs for protecting viscera and regulating the three gastric fires. The prescription is mainly cold,blunt,sparse and rough. Its efficacy focuses on the pathogenesis of blood fever,blood stickiness and venous blockage caused by heat,sharpness,odor and stickiness. It mainly treats Tibetan medicine diseases such as k Hrag-r Lung-stod-vtshangs and k Hrag-vpel( polyemia). It is suggested that Tibetan medicine has a three-in-one invisible treatment principle of " clearing blood-heat,opening vessel and regulating stomach-fire" in the treatment of hypertension,which attributed to both cardiovascular function and gastrointestinal metabolic function. This may be a significant and invisible knowledge of Tibetan medicine in the treatment of hypertension.
