Book Synopsis Medicinal Plants by : Halina Maria Ekiert
Download or read book Medicinal Plants written by Halina Maria Ekiert and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-09-01 with total page 900 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medicinal plant research is an evergreen subject. There is a tremendous increase in popularity of herbal medicine in traditional medicine, ethnomedicine, modern medicine and as over the counter food supplements. Even after this increased demand, supply is neither uniform nor assured as most of these plants are collected from wild. In developing countries of tropical and subtropical regions where majority of herbal drugs are produced, this is not organised sector making it vulnerable to several malpractices, hence standardization of all aspects required. This has also negative impact on biodiversity and conservation of plants as well as supply of uniform material. This book is aimed to provide up to date information about sustainable use of selected medicinal plants, their active ingredients and efforts made to domesticate them to ensured uniform supply. Development of agrotechnology, biotechnology and cultivation practices using conventional and non-conventional methods are presented. Where these efforts will lead the medicinal plant research and future perspective are discussed. The chapters are written by well recognised group leaders in working in the field. The book contains topics on general biology of medicinal plants, their sustainable use and, cultivation and domestication efforts. A uniform chapter structure has been designed to keep consistency. The book will be useful for academicians, agriculturists, biotechnologists and researcher, and industries involved in manufacturing herbal drugs and supplementary products.
Book Synopsis Clinical Herbal Prescriptions: Principles And Practices Of Herbal Formulations From Deep Learning Health Insurance Herbal Prescription Big Data by : Sun-chong Wang
Download or read book Clinical Herbal Prescriptions: Principles And Practices Of Herbal Formulations From Deep Learning Health Insurance Herbal Prescription Big Data written by Sun-chong Wang and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2019-01-22 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since AlphaGo defeated Ke Jie (who was then ranked 1st among all human players worldwide) May 2017, the art of Go (otherwise known as Weiqi) has entered a new era. Similarly, if we apply artificial intelligence (AI) to herbal medicine, the art of herbal prescription can experience a game change too. The author of this book has done exactly that, and via reverse engineering of the trained AI, the book details how one can compose herbal prescriptions from scratch.As artificial intelligence (AI) technologies outperform humans in such tasks as image/voice recognition and language translation, mastering of concentrated herbal extract granules (CHEG) prescription composition by AI is not a fiction, provided large quantities of high-quality CHEG prescription data are available. Thanks to the 340 million records of modern Western medicine diagnoses and corresponding CHEG prescriptions in the National Health Insurance Reimbursement Database (Taiwan) recorded in the decade between 2004 and 2013, the book is based on the results of applying state-of-the-art deep learning technologies to the CHEG prescription big data.

Book Synopsis Traditional Chinese Medicine by : James D Adams
Download or read book Traditional Chinese Medicine written by James D Adams and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2015-10-20 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional Chinese medicine has a strong scientific basis, but the science of these important preparations is often rarely discussed. Western approaches often simplify traditional Chinese medicine to drug discovery in Chinese plants, however, the majority of traditional Chinese medications use complex mixtures of plant extracts, rather than single purified drugs. The combination of different extracts is based on yin, yang and chi theories, which are often poorly understood in the West. Yin and yang are known to be the balance of agonists and antagonists, whereas chi derives from signalling processes in the body and regulates bodily functions. Traditional Chinese medical practitioners understand that yin, yang and chi constantly interact in the body to maintain health. Western medical practitioners understand how to use agonists and antagonists and how to modify signalling processes, but generally do not accept the use of complex plant extracts to perform these functions. Aimed at medical scientists, and including detailed explanations of the theories behind the science, this text may help researchers to understand Chinese medical practitioners and to communicate more effectively with them. It will also lead to greater acceptance of traditional medications in the West. Presenting a clear rationale for the use of traditional Chinese medications in Western medical facilities, it enables scientists to find new directions in experimental design and encourage examination of these useful, but often poorly understood, preparations in clinical trials.

Download or read book Network Pharmacology written by Shao Li and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-09-29 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces “network pharmacology” as an emerging frontier subject of systematic drug research in the era of artificial intelligence and big data. Network Pharmacology is an original subject of fusion system biology, bioinformatics, network science and other related disciplines. It emphasizes on starting from the overall perspective of the system level and biological networks, the analysis of the laws of molecular association between drugs and their treatment objects, reveals the systematic pharmacological mechanisms of drugs, and guides the research and development of new drugs and clinical diagnosis and treatment. After it was proposed, network pharmacology has been paid attention by researchers, and it has been rapidly developed and widely used. In order to systematically reveal the biological basis of diagnosis and treatment in traditional Chinese medicine and modern medicine, we proposed a new concept of "network target" for the first time, which has become the core theory of "network pharmacology". The core principle of a network target is to construct a biological network that can be used to decipher complex diseases. The network is then used as the therapeutic target, to which multicomponent remedies are applied. This book mainly includes four parts: 1) The concept and theory of network pharmacology; 2) Common analysis methods, databases and software in network pharmacological research; 3) Typical cases of traditional Chinese medicine modernization and modern drug research based on network pharmacology; 4) Network pharmacology practice process based on drugs and diseases.
