The Mechanism of Moxibustion: Ancient Theory and Modern Research

THE MOXIBUSTION HAS A DUAL EFFECT OF TONIFICATION AND PURGATION IN TCM THEORIES, WHICH ARE BASED ON TWO ASPECTS: the actions of the meridian system and the roles of moxa and fire. Modern research works of the moxibustion mechanism mainly relate to the thermal effects, radiation effects, and pharmacological actions of moxa and its combustion products. Experimental results showed that moxibustion...

Tracks of ancient cosmetics in the modern era of cosmetics

Cosmetics is as old as the history of human being. It has been present in human life since the times of the most ancient civilizations. Perfumery is one of the oldest branches of cosmetics. Valerian perfumes found from the Pharaohs’ pyramids, had maintained their aroma. Coriander, Mace oil, cardamom, cinnamon, and juniper were also the favorite materials used for perfumery in ancient Egyptian c...

A Construction Model of Ancient Architecture Protection Domain Ontology based on Software Engineering and CLT

In allusion to the lack of formal mathematical methods and engineering characteristics on the construction of AAPDO (ancient architecture protection domain ontology, AAPDO), a construction model on AAPDO based on software engineering and CLT (Concept Lattice Theory, CLT) is proposed, and the application steps and methods of the model are also elaborated on. The model uses a guiding ideology of ...
