[Objective]To sort out and correct the situations where TANG Rongchuan's Xuezheng Lun(Treatise on Blood Syndromes)mistakenly identified"Qianren"and"Quanpi"as other herbs or losing.[Methods]By searching the Airusheng Chinese Basic Classics Library,the Beijing University of Chinese Medicine Library's ancient books and Republican-era thread-bound book digitization platform,and the Ancient Books Database of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine Library,the publication status of"Qianren"and"Quanpi"in Xuezheng Lun was statistically analyzed.By searching the China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI)and Duxiu databases for papers and monographs that cited relevant paragraphs and contained errors,the errors of"Qianren"and"Quanpi"being mistaken for other medicines or omitted were analyzed.By searching local county annals and medical works,and combining this with the analysis of inferring the names of medicines based on their effects,the medicines referred to by"Qianren"and"Quanpi"were identified.[Results]At least 22 academic papers and 39 monographs contain errors such as"Louren""Yiren""Taoren"or missing for"Qianren",and"Danpi""Chenpi"or missing for"Quanpi".This error first appeared in the process of compiling the single edition of Xuezheng Lun from the Five Kinds of Chinese and Western Medical Books by Shanghai Health Publishing House in 1958,and the lead-printed edition by Shanghai Science and Technology Publishing House in 1959,which was derived from this version,had been widely circulated after becoming a popular edition of Xuezheng Lun,resulting in this error being passed down for more than sixty years.The spread of errors takes two forms:vertical direct quotation and horizontal transfer citation,with phenomena such as"correct and incorrect mixtures"and"error modification"during the transmission process.In the book Xuezheng Lun,"Qianren"refers to"Cheqianren"in short,and"Quanpi"is another name for"Digupi".[Conclusion]Negligence and arbitrary changes in the citation of literature are the deep reasons for TANG Rongchuan's Xuezheng Lun mistakenly identifying the drugs"Qianren"and"Quanpi"as other drugs or missing,making the original errors to be perpetuated,even passed down through annotations.Scholars should verify multiple sources when citing literature to avoid misquotation.

The combination of sourness,bitterness,sweetness,pungency,and saltness results in different effects.Through the analysis of the theory of combining five flavours in Fu Qingzhu's Obstetrics and Gynecology,this article explores its application in formulation ideas and the characteristics of Chinese medication,summarized as"primarily sweet,with all four flavors harmonized".FU Qingzhu emphasizes the central role of sweet-flavour medicine in facilitating conception,while incorporating the other four flavours in synergy.For instance,sweet and pungent flavours can boost yang energy,eliminating chilliness and warming the uterus;sour and sweet flavours can nourish yin essence and protect the uterus;bitter and sweet flavours can tonify yin,supporting the kidneys and moistening the uterus;and pungent and salty flavours can eliminate stasis,regenerate blood,and enhance uterine functions.By flexibly utilizing the flavours and meridian affinity of traditional Chinese medicine,along with the theory of combining five flavours,it is possible to enhance drug compatibility,deepen the theoretical connotation of Chinese formulas,and regulate the uterus from both yin and yang aspects to facilitate conception.FU Qingzhu's integration of multiple Chinese formulas into a single formula allows for comprehensive treatment.Clear differentiation of dosages within the formula highlights the primary and secondary relationships of traditional Chinese medicines.Additionally,the utilization of pharmaceutical processing techniques optimizes efficacy and regulates meridians and collaterals.This article explores FU Qingzhu's application of the"pure and harmonious traditional Chinese medicines"theory.His prescription thinking enables the attainment of multi-level therapeutic effects,which greatly benefits the optimization of traditional Chinese medicine fertility assistance programs and increases pregnancy rates among infertility patients.

[Objective]To sort out and correct the transmission context of the mistaken authorship of Wenbing Zhinan(Guide to Warm Diseases)and Yixue Zhenchuan(Medical Secrets)as being by GAO Bingjun.[Methods]Through the method of character verification,a literature verification and sorting is conducted on the individuals and events of GAO Bingjun,LOU Jie and GAO Shishi.Through the method of literature retrieval,academic papers and monographs with errors in Wenbing Zhinan and Yixue Zhenchuan are retrieved from China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI)and Duxiu databases.Through the method of bibliometrics,the CNKI literature co-citation network analysis tool is used to analyze the citation network of erroneous references in Yixue Zhenchuan.[Results]Based on the biographical information of GAO Bingjun,LOU Jie and GAO Shishi,it was known that they specialized in different fields and their birth-death dates did not overlap.According to the research papers and monographs indicating errors in transmission context,it was suggested that the source upstream of errors in Wenbing Zhinan and Yixue Zhenchuan should be attributed to the 2002 edition electronic book Zhonghua Yidian(Chinese Medical Records).The results from network analysis indicated that a paper titled"Theoretical Study on Warming and Dredging Function of Moxibustion"published in 2011,played a significant role in promoting the spread of errors regarding authors'mistakes in Yixue Zhenchuan.[Conclusion]The author of Wenbing Zhinan was LOU Jie and the author of Yixue Zhenchuan was GAO Shishi respectively.These two books were mistakenly attributed to GAO Bingjun due to scholars'failure to carefully verify original documents during citations.This suggests that researchers must exercise caution when citing sources to avoid perpetuating errors.

[Objective]To sort out and correct the error of the 27th prescription "Warm disease in summer of Hand Taiyin" about Qingluo Drink in Wenbing Tiaobian·Summer Heat in Upper-Jiao(Analysis of Warm Diseases).The "Hand Taiyin" is mistakenly spread as "Hand Taiyang".[Methods]By using literature retrieval methods,relevant erroneous papers and works in the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Duxiu databases were retrieved.Textual comparisons were made with the initial edition of Wenbing Tiaobian in the digital platform of Airusheng Chinese Basic Classics Library V8.0 and Beijing University of Chinese Medicine Library's ancient books and Republican-era thread-bound book digitization platform.[Results]In the above-mentioned database,a total of 8 books and 1 dissertation mistakenly referred to "Hand Taiyin" to "Hand Taiyang".Most of these publications claim that their source is the first edition of Wenxin Tang in the 18th year of Jiaqing in the Qing Dynasty (1813),but there is no error in the original text.This error first appeared in 1994.The publication of Wenbing Tiaobian by People's Medical Publishing House in 2005 played a role in the vertical and horizontal dissemination of this error.Many other publications from the same publishing house inherited the 10 errors from the 2005 edition of Wenbing Tiaobian.[Conclusion]The error of the 27th prescription "Warm disease in summer of Hand Taiyin" about Qingluo Drink in Wenbing Tiaobian·Summer Heat in Upper-Jiao(Analysis of Warm Diseases) may have been caused by omission and typo of the editing staff initially.Later,it spread in relevant publications of People's Medical Publishing House,possibly due to the reuse of internal documents during reprinting,resulting in the inheritance of historical errors.This serves as a reminder that when reprinting ancient books,publishing houses should carefully review and strive for excellence to avoid perpetuating errors.

The outbreak of COVID-19 posed a huge threat to human health and social stability. With the rapid spread of the virus around the world, the drug development and related research of novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) have become an urgent issue in the medical field. COVID-19 fails into the category of epidemics in the theory of TCM. LHQW capsule has repeatedly played an important role in many major epidemics. Previous studies have shown that LHQW capsule can inhibit the biological activity of varied viruses including MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV. The paper summarizes the relevant research data and achievements of LHQW capsule in the past few years, reviews the chemical constituents, clinical efficacy and pharmacological effects of LHQW capsule, and provides scientific basis for the anti-virus mechanism of LHQW capsule and clinical treatment of COVID-19.
