Abstract: Bibliometrics analysis is increasingly used for situation analysis in a certain field. We aimed to analyze the immunological aspects of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) from 1995 to the present, such as study countries, institutions, journals, and hotspots. The web of science core collection was used to retrieve the articles related to TCM-Immune from 1995 to 2018, and the statistical analysis of those projects by the Excel, VOS viewer software. A total of 4005 kinds of literature on TCM-Immune were retrieved. It was found that the total number of papers published in recent years had increased rapidly, with China being the country with the largest number of publications, followed by the United States, South Korea, India, and Japan. Top 10 institutions except Kyung-hee University are based in China, and so are the authors of the top three. VOS viewer software divided the keywords into four clusters, the first cluster is immune in vitro, the second cluster is immune in vivo, the third cluster is TCM-Immune resistance, the fourth cluster is the mechanism of immune, the analysis shows that inflammation, oxidative stress, signal pathway, the mechanism of action is new hotspots in the future.

Abstract: Objective: Chronic severe intrahepatic cholestasis hepatitis is a clinical refractory disease. We have achieved good results in the treatment of chronic severe intrahepatic cholestasis hepatitis with Liu Chen Tang. This study aims to explore the clinical efficacy of Liu Chen Tang in the treatment of chronic severe intrahepatic cholestasis hepatitis. Methods: Thirty-five patients with chronic severe intrahepatic cholestatic hepatitis were randomly divided into Chinese medicine treatment group (n=23) and control group (n=12). The changes of symptoms, signs such as yellow eyes and body, fatigue, nausea, low food intake, and yellow urine and liver function including serum total bilirubin (TBIL), direct bilirubin (DBIL), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), γ-glutamyl peptide transferase (GGT), before and after treatment were observed. Results: The improvement of the above indicators in the treatment group was significantly better than that of the control group (P<0.01 or P<0.05). The effective rate of the treatment group was 95.6%, and the effective rate of the control group was 58.3%. Conclusion: Through the application of Liu Xi Decoction in the treatment of chronic severe intrahepatic cholestatic hepatitis, it was observed that the treatment group was significantly better than the control group. Liu Xi Decoction is an effective prescription for the treatment of chronic severe intrahepatic cholestatic hepatitis and is worthy of further popularization and application.

Abstract: American Ginseng (Panax quinquefolius, AG) is a standout amongst the most perceived herbal botanicals in Oriental Medicine and the alternative healthcare market. In spite of the fact that AG is not as broadly studied as Panax Ginseng, none the less, AG is one of the best-selling herbs in the world market, and has gathered expanding attention from researchers as of late. AG is grown in the United States of America, Canada, and The People's Republic of China, on subject of AG industry and quality standards Wisconsin Ginseng is considered to be the gold standard for the highest quality grown worldwide. AG has been farmed in Wisconsin, U.S., for more than 100 years, dating back to the 1800’s which birthed the artificially propagated industry. Today, Wisconsin Ginseng farmers account for 95 percent of the total cultivated AG production of the United States which continues to attract the studies of researcher professionals to the environmentally clean and regulated grown Wisconsin source of origin. Ongoing studies have demonstrated that through the numerous unregulated cultivated procedures that AG is grown, fungal molds, pesticides, and various metals and residues have contaminated the crops. Scientific investigations of AG in the past decade have increased drastically due to the increasing demand of herbal derived biomedicines from natural botanical plant sources that have demonstrated significant potential in clinical efficacy of important diseases. AG Past studies demonstrated have shown ginseng saponins called ginsenosides are the major active constituents in AG. The investigations of AG were relatively limited in the previous decade, but some encouraging advances have been accomplished in understanding the chemistry, pharmacology and structure-function relationship of AG and its clinical efficacy. In this manner, we review pharmacological effects of the ginsenosides, also the clinical efficacy on the cardiovascular system, immune system, and nervous system as well as metabolism and anti-cancer effects. Concentrating on the clinical evidence has indicated particular effectiveness in specific diseases, such as diabetes mellitus, arterial stiffness, neurocognitive disorders, and cancer fatigue as a recommended adjunct treatment along with supplementing conventional therapy.
