On Chinese and Western medicine and Chinese and Western culture
Abstract: Culture is ubiquitous, which affects people's thinking and activities, health and the formation and development of medical science. Many differences between Chinese and Western medicine are related to different cultural soils and are the result of cultural choices. This paper mainly looks at the differences between Chinese and western cultures from the perspective of Chinese and western medicine. Besides the differences, what are the similarities, and what direction the laws of cultural development will lead to the development of Chinese and western medicine are all issues involved in this paper.

Everything starts with a movie. The movie Scraping tells a series of stories about the hero who was abused by his father for scraping his son. In this movie, the contradiction between the theory of western medicine based on anatomy and the experience of traditional Chinese medicine passed down from mouth to mouth is reflected, revealing the conflict between Chinese and western cultures. At the same time, it also shows the profoundness of Chinese culture and the exquisite medical skills of China, which leads me to think that culture is ubiquitous, which affects people's thinking and activities, health and the formation and development of medical science. Many differences between Chinese and western medicine are related to different cultural soils and are the result of cultural choices.
First of all, from the perspective of Chinese and Western languages, Chinese and Western medicine is the most basic and important human cultural phenomenon, the foundation of thinking and social development, and the necessary condition for the survival and development of the medical system. The differences between Chinese and western languages are obvious, and the influence on medicine is not difficult to understand. The hieroglyphics in China are visual characters, while those in other countries are mostly visual characters. Visual characters are more stable than auditory characters and easier to spread and inherit. This stability makes TCM easy to inherit and unify, and makes TCM theory highly stable. Western characters make pinyin and auditory characters less stable, less intensive, more abstract, and relatively single in meaning. These characteristics have a certain impact on the development of western medicine, the abstraction of theory and the scientific nature of disciplines.
The semantic differences have obvious influence on Chinese and Western medicine. Due to the different scientific development status and process between China and the West, and the different historical and cultural backgrounds between China and the West, there are differences in the rational meaning of semantics, which is very obvious in Chinese and Western medicine. Chinese medicine? Gas? Different from western medicine? air? , Chinese medicine? Spleen? Different from western medicine? spleen? The viscera of traditional Chinese medicine are also different from the organs of western medicine. And Chinese medicine is a literary style, while western medicine is a scientific style. The difference of stylistic construction has a great influence on the construction of the two medical systems.
As the core of culture and the highest level of theoretical thinking, philosophy has been guiding the development of medicine and other sciences. Chinese and western medicine have never existed without their respective philosophies. Therefore, it is particularly important to analyze the differences between Chinese and Western medicine from the perspective of Chinese and Western philosophy.
Traditional Chinese medicine integrates China's philosophy with medicine. Contemporary Sun Simiao said that it is not enough to cure too much if he doesn't know the Book of Changes. And Zhang Jiebin in the Ming Dynasty also said,? Based on the Book of Changes, every word is a guide to Tibetan medicine. One is like a mirror, salty and respectful of life. ? The theory of Yin and Yang in TCM comes from Yi? Tai Chi gives birth to two instruments? . Where does the Five Elements Theory originate? Tai Chi produces Yin and Yang in one breath, and the combination of Yin and Yang produces invisibility. The five elements are both shadowy and contain everything. ? Almost all the basic theories of traditional Chinese medicine can be found in Taiji diagram. Both Confucianism and Taoism originated from the Book of Changes. What about Confucianism? Renshu? It stipulates the direction and practical rationality of medicine and affects the medical ethics principle of emphasizing righteousness over profit and attaching importance to human relations. Daoyi? Taoism is natural? 、? Split in two? Natural inaction and dialectics have influenced the theoretical basis of traditional Chinese medicine and the thought of preventing and treating diseases.
as for the west, since the atomism of leucippus, democritus, Epicurus and Aristotle in ancient Greece, mainstream western philosophy has persisted? Object-centered theory? This theory guides western medicine to pay attention to the physical substances and organs that constitute the human body. The reductionism thought formed in modern western countries holds that the whole is made up of parts, which should and can be decomposed into parts to understand, and the overall performance of life can be completely explained from the performance of its components; In this way, the research of western medicine has gone from the whole, organs and cells to the molecular and sub-molecular level, and a series of basic medical disciplines have been constructed. It can be seen that Chinese and western medicine are developing in different directions in their respective philosophical tracks.
Finally, it has to be mentioned that China's farming culture has strengthened people's pragmatic spirit. People in China value peace and stability rather than taking risks and exploring, value human relations over nature, reproduce the world over the future, value seeking common ground over dissent, and value official career over science and technology, which has a very obvious influence on traditional Chinese medicine. People who practice medicine are mostly those who retreat to the second best after their official career is not smooth, and abandon Confucianism for the road. However, the western navigation and commercial culture not only has negative effects such as plunder, self-interest and money worship, but also gives people the spirit of overcoming nature, daring to be unconventional and despising authority. The development of western medicine is closely related to these spirits.
People are entities that pursue value and carry out activities according to their conscious purpose. Anything that is worthless to people and does not meet people's expected purpose will be despised and abandoned. The reason why science can be sought after by people is that science can make people correctly understand and apply the laws of nature, and make people use science to actively make nature serve people and meet people's material and spiritual needs. Medicine, as a science, all its achievements must serve people's health, happiness and development. The subject and object of medicine make people, and humanistic spirit is not only the driving force to promote the development of medicine, but also an important method of medical research and medical service.
when it comes to scientific spirit, since medicine is a science, how can it not embody the scientific spirit? Scientific spirit, which is a kind of seeking truth from facts and thorough materialism, is a combination of rational spirit and humanistic spirit of seeking truth, perfection and perfection. It is also a great rational force that persistently pursues and defends the truth, and a just force that dares to despise and oppose theocracy, superstition, fallacies and all powers for the sake of truth. Throughout the history of Chinese and Western medicine for thousands of years, from Zhang Zhongjing's establishment of clinical medicine based on clinical practice, the academic contention of four masters in Jin and Yuan Dynasties, to Li Shizhen for 3 years, he personally cultivated and collected various drug specimens without fear of hardships and wrote the pharmaceutical masterpiece Compendium of Materia Medica; From Hippocrates, Galen, Pasteur and Harvey, they all seek truth from facts and despise theology and authority; All of them give their lives to forget themselves and devote themselves to the medical cause; All of them have the spirit of doubt, critical rationality and humility, unity with others and learning from others. In a word, the scientific spirit runs through the development of medicine.
Looking forward to the future of Chinese and Western medicine, there is a cultural barrier between Chinese and Western medicine. Although they share the same spirit, they are scientific. Fusion point? It has not arrived yet, and it is impossible to forcibly combine the two kinds of medicine into one at present. However, the society of traditional Chinese and western medicine will eventually merge, and the condition of integration is to speed up scientific development and cultural exchange. Because, in cultural exchange and communication, we can not refuse foreign advanced culture, but also insist on our own excellent national culture. All advanced scientific culture can only take root by nationalization, and China's excellent national culture can only spread out by going global. Chinese and western medicine must understand this truth in the process of cultural integration! The future of Chinese and western medicine is bright, let the world work together and let Chinese and western medicine shine the most dazzling light in the world.

On the development of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine
Abstract: Traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine are two valuable medical sciences, with a history of thousands of years. Its medical knowledge contains the essence of medical cognition of China doctors for many years and occupies an important position in the history of medical development. Since the 196s, the subject of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine has flourished and made remarkable medical achievements. The combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine plays an important role in treating fractures, organ failure and anesthesia pains, especially the medical achievements of artemisinin in treating malaria have been recognized all over the world. It can be predicted that the combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine will remain a research hotspot in the future medical development. Starting with the concept of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine, this paper analyzes some thoughts on the development of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine, and analyzes its clinical application.
Keywords: integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine; Medical development; Chinese and western medicine
1. Overview of integrated Chinese and western medicine
Integrated Chinese and western medicine is a subject to study the combined treatment of Chinese and western medicine. From a microscopic point of view, it is a research content to study the formation and development of Chinese and western medicine, explore the advantages and disadvantages of Chinese medicine and western medicine in treating a certain disease, integrate the advantages of the two medicines, absorb their advantages, and formulate a new medical theory to better serve disease treatment and medical progress. Is the development of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine the current medicine? The important topic of W development is also the direction of medical development in the future. Chinese medicine pays attention to health care and body recuperation, and adopts a conservative treatment concept for disease treatment, while western medicine goes directly to the focus and eliminates the diseased parts of the body. Integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine includes the treatment concepts of Chinese medicine and western medicine, and adopts a macro treatment strategy for diseases to improve the overall medical level.
second, thinking about the development of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine
(I) concept cognition of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine
From the origin and development of medicine, traditional Chinese medicine is an empirical medical means, which pays attention to the functional regulation of the whole human body and the relationship between microscopic lesions of the human body, and is a collective compensatory treatment method. Traditional Chinese medicine belongs to the category of experimental medicine, which pays attention to the pathogenesis of microscopic local lesions. Its treatment concept adopts antagonistic treatment concept, which goes straight to the depth of lesions and has a good treatment effect on severe emergencies such as tumors and acute cardiovascular diseases. The development of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine should correct the cognitive concept, not oppose the two kinds of medicine, realize the complementarity of the two kinds of medicine, adhere to the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine, combine advanced western medicine equipment and treatment methods with traditional Chinese medicine, give full play to the advantages of the two kinds of medicine, and promote the integration of traditional Chinese and western medicine.
(II) Strengthening the understanding of the differences between Chinese and Western medicine
Chinese medicine and western medicine belong to two different disciplines, and there are significant differences in treatment concepts and methods. The development of geometric medicine of Chinese and Western medicine should pay attention to this difference, seek medical integration and cooperation in medical differences, take medical science as the basic theory, maintain the development advantages of Chinese and Western medicine, and eliminate the development problems of integration of Chinese and Western medicine. Chinese and western medicine should deeply study the internal relationship between physiology and pathology, incorporate macroscopic treatment concepts into western medicine, integrate scientific research methods into Chinese medicine research, find new theoretical support points between them, realize the rapid development of clinical practice of integrated Chinese and western medicine, and improve Chinese and western medicine in medical practice.
(3) Building a scientific catalogue of Chinese and Western medicine
At present, one of the difficulties faced by the development of integrated Chinese and Western medicine in China is that it has not established a perfect scientific catalogue, which has affected the process of professional development. In the enrollment of integrated Chinese and Western medicine in colleges and universities, it has not been enrolled as an independent discipline, which has increased the ambiguity and uncertainty of scientific positioning. Therefore, the establishment of Chinese and Western medical science catalogues should adhere to the concepts of medical openness, medical enjoyment and medical integration, promote the theoretical process of Chinese medicine science, gradually improve the treatment system of Chinese medicine, formulate scientific operation procedures for its pharmacological analysis, treatment plan and focus research, realize the unity of Chinese medicine research methods and western medicine research methods, and truly realize the development concept of Chinese medicine integration.
(4) Building a professional medical team
The development of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine can't be separated from the support of a professional medical team. Scholars and masters of traditional Chinese medicine in China are almost puzzled, and the follow-up force for the spread and development of western medicine is seriously insufficient. Chinese medicine has even entered a depressed development stage, and the loss of professional Chinese medicine talents has aggravated the predicament of the development of traditional Chinese medicine. Therefore, the development of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine should first establish a professional team, encourage Chinese medicine practitioners to study the theoretical methods of western medicine, accelerate the promotion of Chinese medicine treatment concepts of western medicine practitioners, and accelerate the cultivation of talents in integrated medical teams. In terms of student training, we should pay attention to the accumulation of medical theoretical knowledge, at the same time, cultivate students' ability of advanced medical research methods, cultivate high-quality talents in Chinese and Western medicine, and lay a solid talent foundation for the development of tuberculosis medicine in Chinese and Western medicine.
Third, the clinical application of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine
The purpose of the development of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine is to improve the existing medical level, integrate the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine, and realize the convergence and integration of traditional medicine and modern medicine in China. Bound by long-term thinking and cognition, many people think that Chinese medicine is empiricism, and Chinese medicine treatment is slow conditioning, which can't play an effective role, while western medicine goes straight to the pathogen, and the treatment effect is remarkable. The clinical practice of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine should be based on the treatment of western medicine, interspersed with the treatment concept of traditional Chinese medicine, combined with the pharmacological experiments of classical Chinese medicine and clinical trials of western medicine, and combined with modern technical experiments to develop integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine. At present, with the rapid development of medical technology, the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine are reflected in the conservative treatment of tumor diseases and gynecological diseases, while western medicine uses modern diagnostic techniques to determine the condition. Integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine should adhere to the diagnostic techniques and methods of western medicine, tap the advantages of traditional Chinese and western medicine, carry out pathological exploration of traditional Chinese and western medicine under the research methods of western medicine, verify the credibility of traditional Chinese medicine in clinical practice, and promote the development of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine.
IV. Conclusion
To sum up, the purpose of the development of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine is to integrate the strengths of the two schools, explore the new direction of medical development, create new medical theories and treatment methods, explore the scientific nature of pathology of traditional Chinese medicine, diagnose the disease focus by using diagnostic techniques of traditional Chinese medicine, and excavate the effective components of traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions by using drug extraction techniques, so as to realize the perfect integration of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine.
