Based on the syndrome and treatment system of collateral disease， and inheriting the development of the bloodline theory of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， academician WU Yi-ling systematically constructed the vessel-collateral theory of TCM and proposed that its core theory was the theory of Yingwei， that is， "Ying in the vein， and Wei outside the vein" （Huangdi Neijing·Lingshu·Yingwei Shenghui）， "obstructing of Yingwei， congelation of blood" （Treatise on Febrile Diseases· Pulse Differentiation Method）， "pathogen transferring through blood vessels， obstructed by blocking" （Jinkui Yaolue·Zangfu Jingluo Xianhou Bingmaizheng First）， and "damage of the heart， adjust its Yingwei". Based on the consistency of vessel-collateral as the channel of blood circulation in TCM with the blood vessels in western medicine， and guided by the Yingwei theory of vessel-collateral theory， the diagnostic criteria of syndrome differentiation of disease of vessel-collateral and vascular system represented by coronary heart disease， arrhythmia， heart failure and others was established to guide the prevention and treatment of vascular diseases. Based on the above analysis， guided by the Yingwei theory of vessel-collateral theory， and on the basis of related researches of vessel-collateral and vascular system， this paper discussed the etiology and pathogenesis of chronic coronary syndrome （CCS） in TCM. Taking useful collateral with unblocking as the treatment principle， the representative Tongluo prescription （Tongxinluo） was constructed， the research progress of Tongxinluo from various aspects such as animal experiment research， pharmacological research and clinical evidence-based research was summarized， a comprehensive system from etiology， pathogenesis， syndrome differentiation to treatment was formed， in order to provide new ideas for the clinical treatment of CCS.

Meridians include (Qi) channels and blood (vessels). In Duyi Suibi, ZHOU Xue-hai of qing Dynasty named the terminal of Qi channel as"fine collateral of Qi" and the terminal of blood vessel as"fine collateral of blood". Qi channels of the heart cover extensive regulating mechanisms including cardiac pacing and conducting system. Blood vessels of the heart cover circulation system of coronary artery. Cardiac Qi channels and blood vessels are coordinated mutually, and Ying and Wei run together, to jointly maintain normal functions of the heart. Abnormal Yingwei caused by various pathogenic factors leads to occurrence of arrhythmia. Based on the Yingwei theory of vessel-collateral theory, this paper puts forward treatment based on syndrome differentiation of arrhythmia guided by therapeutic principle of"regulating Yingwei in case of heart damage" (Nanjing·14^thNan) as well as addresses both symptoms and root causes by prescriptions for regulating Wei, Qi, Ying and blood through sufficiently considering modern pathogenic factors and pathogenic characteristics, in order to provide beneficial reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective:To explore the ways and methods to improve the ability of hospital ethical review and ensure the quality and efficiency of ethical review.Methods:By consulting the literature and combining the practical experience of the construction of the ethics committee and the ethical review work in the hospital, analyze the present situation of ethical review in our country, and deeply analyze the main problems existing in the work of ethical review in hospitals.Results:The quality and efficiency of ethical review can be effectively improved by implementing centralized management, optimizing work processes, establishing emergency response systems, opening green channels, optimizing the composition of committee members, strengthening ethical training and assessment, establishing emergency response systems, opening green channels, strengthening pre-review communication, establishing emergency response systems, opening green channels, strengthening formal review, increasing publicity, and improving ethical awareness.Conclusions:Clarifing the division of responsibilities and strengthen multi-department interaction can effectively improve the efficiency of ethics review. Optimizing the structure of ethics committee, strengthen the training and assessment of members, can effectively enhance the ability of ethics committee review. Unifing the list of documents, optimizing the work flow and the way of examination can effectively shorten the period of ethical examination. It is suggested that continuous ethical training and assessment should be carried out, that an information-based platform system should be used to achieve dynamic supervision, and that a certification system and assessment mechanism for ethics committees should be established at the national level, to promote the improvement of the ability of ethical review.

Objective:Taking into account of the current situation that domestic laws and regulations of medical technology ethics review are not perfect, we put forward practical suggestions on ethical review supervision of the clinical application of new medical technologies from the perspective of standardization.Methods:Referring to the relevant laws, regulations and specific implementation guidelines of ethical review of clinical research, combined with the practical experience of the ethics committee of the host Hospital, this paper systematically summarizes the concept and characteristics and existing problems of new clinical applied medical technology, optimizes the working steps of technology access and ethical review, and establishes an ethical continuing review model.Results:A series of measurements are proposed, which including formulate the access process, improve the management system, optimize ethical review methods, etc. At the same time, pay more attention to the annual continuing review, adverse event report review, suspension/termination of approved research, closure report review, as well as site visit to improve the initiative and efficiency of ethical review. At last, it ensures the continuing of ethical review.Conclusions:It is very important to regulate new medical technology project entry and ethical review supervision in the practice. On one hand, it can effectively make up for the possible shortcomings of current laws and regulations and promote the introduction of new regulatory requirement. On the other hand, it can effectively reduce the medical technology risks and build good medical quality management, improve the system to better safeguard people′s health rights and interests.

The blood-vein theory is inherited and developed. Combined with the related theory features of Qi and blood of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM), the progress results in two national 973 plan projects undertaken are learned from, the vessel-collateral theory guiding the prevention and treatment of vascular lesions is systematically built, the academic development of TCM collateral disease discipline is pushed from "treatment of symptoms of collateral disease" to study on "vessel-collateral theory", a new stage in the history. The pathogenesis, basic pathogenesis, clinical syndrome and syndrome differentiation therapy of vessel-collateral lesions are systematically studied, Yingwei theory, the core content of vessel-collateral theory, is proposed, the syndrome differential diagnosis standard of "vessel-collateral-vascular system disease" is established, and the blood-vessel theory of TCM is improved. The development of Yingwei theory of vessel-collateral theory is deepened. The theory of Yingwei sympathia and Yingwei's "opening by collaterals, intersecting and generating" are proposed to guide the study on prevention and control of vascular lesions. With tertiary collaterals-microvessel as a breakthrough point of research, four types of microscopic pathological features of microvessels are proposed. It is confirmed that dredging collaterals and protecting tertiary collaterals-microvessel is the common key mechanism for the treatment of major diseases of heart, brain and kidney(sugar). It protects microvessels, improves blood flow perfusion, protects tissue cells, and improves the viscera function. Dredging collaterals and protecting microvascular endothelial cells is the core mechanism of treating tertiary collaterals-microvessel lesions. It is proposed that protection of microvascular endothelial cells is a new strategy to solve the problem of microvascular lesions. After more than ten years, four studies of evidence-based medicine have been completed to solve the clinical problem of acute myocardial infarction without reflow. New drugs are provided to the international medical problem of cardiac insufficiency with premature ventricular contraction. The gap of fast and slow treatment, integration and rhythm adjustment of sinus bradycardia with premature ventricular contraction is filled. The clinical treatment effect of chronic heart failure is significantly improved, a major breakthrough in the treatment of microvascular lesions by TCM is achieved, and it is fully recognized and highly evaluated by the medical profession at home and abroad. It promotes the specialized subject platform construction and society development under the guidance of Yingwei theory of vessel-collateral theory, as well as the clinical application of syndrome differentiation diagnosis and treatment method and drugs of vessel-collateral lesions, and has significant social and economic benefits.

Along with intensification of social and life pressures as well as the interference from various psychological stresses， the number of people suffering from insomnia is constantly increasing， and resistance and addiction of western medicine treatment have received much attention. Safe， effective and characteristic therapeutic drug are urgently needed in clinical practices. Chinese eight-word principle of health preservation via dredging collaterals integrates health-preservation quintessence of traditional major schools of Confucianism， Taoism， Buddhism and medicine， and becomes a new theory guiding health preservation in traditional Chinese medicine. The pathogenic characteristics of "deficiency of kidney-essence， insufficiency of heart blood and loss of spirit and consciousness" as well as the therapeutic methods of "tonifying the kidney， invigorating the brain， nourishing the heart and tranquilizing" were proposed on the basis of "conserving strength" and "calming" theory included in Chinese eight-word principle of health preservation via dredging collaterals and in combination with the opinions of "primordial spirit in brain" and "consciousness spirit in heart" described by recent medical doctor ZHANG Xichun in Intergrating Chinese and Western Medicine. The development of innovative Chinese medicine Yishen Yangxin Anshen tablets reflects theoretical innovation， original formula， outstanding pharmacological characteristics and definite clinical effect， and proves scientific value of Chinese eight-word principle of health preservation via dredging collaterals.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effects of Tongxinluo (TXL) on angiogenesis and the volume of blood perfusion in ischemic stroke rats.

METHODSThe model of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was established using craniotomy ligation of the middle cerebral artery on one side. After screening, the male SD rats were randomly divided into the sham-operation group, the model group, the large dose TXL group, the middle dose TXL group, the low dose TXL group, and the Nimodipine group. The expression of microvascular density (MVD, CD31) of the MCAO rats was detected using immunohistochemical assay after 14 days of medication. The microvascular morphology and the volume of blood perfusion in the brain tissue were observed under laser scanning confocal microscope (LSCM).

RESULTSThe positive CD31 expression was intense with significant coloring in the large dose TXL group, the middle dose TXL group, and the Nimodipine group, better than that of the model group. The blood perfusion volume in the ischemic brain cortex could be promoted in the large dose TXL group, the middle dose TXL group, and the Nimodipine group (P<0.01, P<0.05). The optimal effects were shown in the large dose TXL group (P<0.01).

CONCLUSIONTXL significantly increased the MVD of the ischemic brain tissue, promoted the post-ischemic angiogenesis, and increased the volume of blood perfusion of ischemic brain tissue, playing certain blood flow compensatory roles.
