Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has historically played a pivotal role in the prevention and treatment of warm diseases, establishing a comprehensive theoretical framework that underpins its practices. The distinctive and indispensable contributions of aromatic Chinese herbs in dispelling harmful influences and mitigating the spread of these diseases are well recognized; however, further investigation is warranted to elucidate their systematic properties and regularities, and the theory of aromatic Chinese herbs in preventing and treating warm diseases still needs to be comprehensively summarized. This study employs the principles rooted in TCM, with particular emphasis on the framework for warm diseases. An analysis of the disease mechanisms, transmission dynamics, and preventive strategies is conducted during the early stage of infection, throughout the course of the disease, and in the post-illness phase. Furthermore, the characteristics and applications of aromatic Chinese herbs are integrated with insights drawn from modern pharmacological research to explore their specific roles in the prevention and management of warm diseases. The utilization of aromatic Chinese herbs manifests in a variety of therapeutic effects: aromatic medicinals purging filth and dispelling pathogens for preventing epidemic disease, aromatic medicinals regulation for relieving superficies syndrome and dispersing evils, aromatic medicinals ventilation the lung to relieve cough and asthma, aromatic medicinals resolving the dampness to awaken the spleen and stomach, aromatic medicinals opening the orifices to restore consciousness, aromatic and pungent medicinals to regulate qi, aromatic medicinals dredging the vessels to activate blood circulation and dissipate blood stasis, and aromatic medicinals clearing latent heat from the yin level. These properties facilitate tailored approaches to address the diverse manifestations of warm diseases and their associated symptoms, providing clear guidance for clinical application to achieve pre-disease prevention, active disease treatment, complication prevention, and post-recovery relapse avoidance. The use of aromatic Chinese herbs in preventing and treating warm diseases demonstrates theoretical, practical, systematic, and regular characteristics. The theory of the properties of aromatic Chinese herbs has been expanded and sublimated in clinical practice, and its scientific connotation has been expounded in modern research. Under the guidance of the theory of treatment based on syndrome differentiation, and by taking into account the distinct stages and pathologies of warm diseases, the rational selection of aromatic Chinese herbs can improve the clinical efficacy.

Objective To observe the effects of salvianolate injection on blood levels of high sensitively C-reactive protein (hs-CRP),pregnancy associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) in elderly patients with acute myocardial infarction.Methods The elderly patients with AMI (AMI group,n=160) and healthy controls (control group.n=30) were enrolled in this study and their blood concentrations of PAPP A,hs CRP and BNP were detected before and two weeks after treatment.The elderly patients in AMI group were randomized into conventional treatment group (n =80) and salvianolate group (n =80).Results The levels of PAPP-A,hs-CRP and BNP were significantly higher in AMI patients [(12.88±2.56) mg/L,(20.13 ±5.35) mU/L,(412.0±69.5) ng/L,respectively] than in healthy subjects[(1.20±0.88) mg/L,(1.90±0.46) mU/L,(89.0±5.6) ng/L,respectively] (t=24.670,3.780,11.939,respectively,P ＜0.01).But,before treatment there were no significant differences in the levels of PAPP-A,hs-CRP and BNP between the AMI group and control group (t=0.864,0.712,0.985,all P＞0.05).After two weeks of treatment,as compared with control group,AMI group showed that the serum concentrations of PAPP-A,hs-CRP and BNP were decreased significantly (P＜0.05).The levels of PAPP A,hs-CRP and BNP were (3.83±1.20) mg/L,(1.33±0.38) mU/L,(105.0±31.2) ng/L in salvianolate group and (5.71± 1.93) mg/L,(1.81±0.72) mU/L,(150.0±36.7) ng/L in conventional treatment group respectively,and the decrements in levels of PAPP-A,hs CRP and BNP were greater in the former than in the latter(t=7.399,5.273,8.356,respectively,all P＜0.05).Conclusions The dynamic serum concentrations of PAPP-A,hs CRP and BNP can be used as clinical indexes for the prognosis of acute myocardial infarction.Salvianolate injection can significantly decrease the serum levels of PAPP A,hs CRP and BNP.The salvianolate injection may have anti inflammatory effect and improve cardiac function in elderly patients with acute myocardial infarction,but the mechanism is still to be further discussed.

It is crucial for the medical staff to build up mutual trust with patients by their credible attitude and behavior.As core competitiveness of the hospital,the fame of credibility is important to the development of building a harmonious hospital.Only by constructing the hospital's credibility system,integrating the principle of commitment to credibility into the hospital culture,making medical staff work according to this principle,and guiding the harmonious development of a hospital by the credibility culture,can make the hospital management achieve the ultimate goal and reach a satisfying state.
