What does it mean that the "three prescriptions" that emerged in the treatment of patients with new coronary pneumonia have become new drugs on the market ?
How to take the road to modernization of Chinese medicine?
How to innovate and develop?
Xinhua News Agency reporters interviewed Academician Huang Luqi, Dean of the Chinese Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, on these issues.
More emboldened! The original advantages of Chinese medicine technology are transformed into major achievements
Reporter: The State Food and Drug Administration approved the listing of new anti-epidemic "triple" Chinese medicines. What is the significance of this move?
Huang Luqi: "Vaccines" and "Traditional Chinese medicine" are China's two major weapons in fighting the new crown pneumonia epidemic.
In terms of vaccine research and development, we have proven through practice that China has lived up to expectations and injected confidence and strength into the global coordinated fight against the epidemic; on the other hand, the "triple" of Chinese medicine has become a new drug market, which can be described as a new starting point for the inheritance and innovation of Chinese medicine. It is also a vivid practice of inheriting the essence of traditional Chinese medicine, keeping integrity and innovation.
The original advantages of TCM science and technology have been transformed into major achievements, which shows that the TCM theories we used in this fight against the new coronary pneumonia epidemic, the efficacy of clinical treatment, and the scientific data obtained have been fully recognized and become physical and chemical carriers.
Reporter: Patient treatment is always the top priority of epidemic prevention and control.
In the face of a fierce virus, the quick-acting prescriptions that were screened and developed from classic famous prescriptions this time were approved by the State Drug Administration. What does this show?
Huang Luqi: The reform of the Chinese medicine review and approval mechanism is a long-term work. The most important thing is to follow the law of Chinese medicine development, strengthen cultural self-confidence, and take a development path that conforms to the characteristics of Chinese medicine.
This time, the relevant state departments have firmly promoted the implementation of the "Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Promoting the Inheritance and Innovation and Development of Traditional Chinese Medicine", which has stimulated and released the vitality of the development of Chinese medicine, and explored a new way for the review and approval of new Chinese medicines.
To some extent, clinical trials are the internationally accepted methods of western medicine.
Combining the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, human experience, and clinical trials to form an effective evidence system is what we need to do.
Innovative development of traditional Chinese medicine: not forgetting the original, absorbing the foreign and facing the future
Reporter: More than 100 member states of the World Health Organization have approved the use of acupuncture and traditional medicine, which originated from Chinese medicine, has been included in the international disease classification system.
How do you evaluate the integration of Chinese medicine into the medical culture of many countries?
Huang Luqi: Traditional Chinese medicine contains a unique outlook on life, health, and disease.
First, the achievements we have achieved over the years, such as acupuncture and moxibustion, have given the common people and the world a sense of gain.
Second, as my country's overall national strength continues to increase, the international community has paid more attention and research.
Third, Chinese medicine is leading the development of traditional medicine in the world.
To promote Chinese medicine to the world, it is necessary to give full play to the unique advantages and effects of Chinese medicine in disease prevention and treatment.
Reporter: Chinese medicine has played a particularly important role in the fight against the new crown pneumonia epidemic.
How to take advantage of the trend to make Chinese medicine bigger and stronger?
What is the future path of innovation and development of Chinese medicine?
Huang Luqi: History is giving new opportunities for the development of Chinese medicine.
Traditional Chinese medicine has the advantage of original science and technology. Researcher Tu Youyou discovered artemisinin through research and saved millions of lives. It was obtained from the essence of traditional Chinese medicine and innovation.
In the next step, we must fully explore such original advantages. For thousands of years of clinical practice experience and accumulated valuable wealth of Chinese medicine, we must use multi-disciplinary cross-discipline exploration and inheritance.
At the same time, give full play to the advantages of the new nationwide system and do a good job in the corresponding top-level design.
The laws of traditional Chinese medicine are based on the achievements of Chinese civilization.
To follow the path of innovation and development of Chinese medicine, one is to not forget the original, including classics and thoughts and many other essences that need to be passed on.
The second is to absorb foreign sources, and continue to draw on and absorb the latest research results of modern science for our use.
The third is to face the future, to be targeted and problem-oriented, to tackle some major scientific issues in life sciences, and to propose our theoretical system and technical methods from the perspective of Chinese medicine to serve the human health and health community.
Consolidate the foundation of development: both talents and medicinal materials are indispensable
Reporter: Inheritance, innovation and development of Chinese medicine are inseparable from talents.
In the next step, what issues should be paid attention to in the training of Chinese medicine talents?
How to build a Chinese medicine talent system?
Huang Luqi: At present, traditional Chinese medicine has a great opportunity for revitalization and development.
Traditional Chinese Medicine contains thousands of years of health preservation concepts and practical experience of the Chinese nation. It is a gem of Chinese civilization and embodies the vast wisdom of the Chinese people and the Chinese nation.
We must organically integrate higher education with traditional teacher-to-education, cultivate leading talents with solid foundation in traditional Chinese medicine and talents of various levels of traditional Chinese medicine, and let professionals play a special role in the integration of medicine and prevention, integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine, including the public health system. Master modern technology, medical technology, and public health knowledge.
Reporter: The quality of Chinese medicinal materials determines the efficacy and even survival of Chinese medicine.
How to guarantee the quality of Chinese herbal medicines?
Huang Luqi: In the past, the society often called: "Don't let Chinese medicine die in Chinese medicine." This sentence is more a reminder and warning that the quality of Chinese medicinal materials may decline. I hope everyone will care and support the high-quality development of Chinese medicinal materials. .
In fact, to a certain extent, we have to look at this issue dialectically.
At present, the quality of Chinese medicinal materials is gradually improving.
my country has established a national industrial technology system for traditional Chinese medicinal materials, focusing on the six words "orderly, safe, and effective", and deploying authentic medicinal materials throughout the country.
Emphasizing authentic medicinal materials is actually the inheritance of the theoretical essence and practical experience in Chinese medicinal materials; using modern science and technology to "maintain integrity" and cultivate new varieties is also a manifestation of innovation.
In the future, we will continue to consolidate the foundation of talents and medicinal materials, and promote the high-quality development of traditional Chinese medicine in inheritance and innovation, so that this treasure of Chinese civilization will continue to shine with new brilliance.
