Abstract: The “One Qi Circular Flow” theory emphasizes the leftward ascent and rightward descent of qi dynamics, forming a continuous cyclical movement. Based on this theory, Professor Li Ronggang established the “Tianyi Acupuncture Method,” developing a systematic system for acupuncture pattern differentiation and point selection. Beyond pattern-based point selection, his approach emphasizes the sequential order of needling and the cyclical interconnection of meridians. Professor Li has also innovated needling techniques, such as a modified “mountain-burning fire” technique, and advocates the integration of“ Dao and technique,” tailoring treatments according to time, place, and individual constitution. The development of the Tianyi Acupuncture Method enriches the diagnostic and therapeutic framework of acupuncture and offers a new paradigm for standardized acupuncture practice. A representative case study is appended.

Abstract: Emotional diseases (psycho-emotional disorders) are highly prevalent in modern society, and their pathogenesis is closely related to biological rhythm disruption and social environmental stress. Modern medical treatments have certain limitations, whereas Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) provides a unique approach based on the macro-philosophical perspective of the “Unity of Heaven and Humanity” (Tianren Heyi). This paper systematically reviews the core connotations of this theory and explores the pathogenesis of emotional diseases from this perspective, specifically the internal interaction between the disorder of natural rhythms (seasons, day and night) and the dysfunction of the five Zang-organs’ spirit. It highlights the clinical guiding role of this theory in acupuncture treatment, including selecting acupoints according to the four seasons, applying time acupuncture (Ziwu Liuzhu and Linggui Bafa) based on chronological indications, adapting to regional characteristics, and achieving the simultaneous treatment of body and spirit (Xingshen Tongzhi) through the principle of “treating the spirit first.” Furthermore, by integrating modern chronobiology, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, and the brain-gut axis, this paper explores the scientific connotations of chrono-acupuncture in regulating emotions. The study shows that acupuncture guided by the “Unity of Heaven and Humanity” can accurately reconstruct the synchronous rhythm between the human body and the natural environment, realizing a reversal from “treating the spirit” to“ regulating the body,” thereby providing solid theoretical support and innovative ideas for the clinical optimization of emotional diseases.

摘要： 情志病是现代社会高发的身心疾病，其发病与生物节律紊乱、社会环境应激密切相关。现代医学治疗存在一定局限性，而中医学基于“天人合一”的宏观哲学视角，为情志病的防治提供了独特路径。本文系统梳理了“天人合一”理论的核心内涵，探讨了在该理论视角下情志病的发病机制，即自然节律（四时、昼夜）失常与人体五脏神机紊乱的内在互作。重点阐述了“天人合一”理论对针灸治疗情志病的临床指导作用，包括顺应四时阴阳选经取穴、运用子午流注与灵龟八法因时刺灸、结合地域特征因地制宜，以及“凡刺之真，必先治神”的形神同治理念。同时，结合现代时间生物学、下丘脑- 垂体- 肾上腺（HPA）轴及脑肠轴机制，探讨了顺时针灸调节情志的科学内涵。研究表明，以“天人合一”为指导的针灸治疗，能够精准重构人体与自然环境的同步节律，实现从“治神”到“调形”的逆转，为情志病的临床优化治疗提供了坚实的理论支撑与创新思路。

Abstract: With the shift in medical paradigms, the concepts of “preventive treatment of disease” and “holistic cosmetology” have gained profound popularity. As a green, safe, and side-effect-free Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) therapy, acupuncture has been increasingly applied in the field of cosmetic medicine. This paper systematically reviews the theoretical foundation of acupuncture cosmetology, focusing on common cosmetic concerns such as acne vulgaris, melasma, skin aging, and obesity. It summarizes the clinical application rules of various acupuncture modalities, including filiform needle acupuncture, electroacupuncture (EA), collateral bloodletting and cupping, and acupoint catgut embedding. By establishing clinical data charts and analyzing typical case images, this study objectively evaluates the clinical efficacy of acupuncture in cosmetology. Modern research indicates that acupuncture exerts its cosmetic effects through multiple pathways: regulating the endocrineimmune network, improving local microcirculation, inhibiting melanocyte activity, and promoting collagen fiber proliferation. This paper aims to provide evidence-based medical support for the standardization and popularization of acupuncture in clinical cosmetology.

Abstract: The high incidence of bone and joint diseases (such as osteoarthritis, post-fracture conditions, and soft tissue injuries) imposes a significant burden on global healthcare systems. In the process of bone and joint repair and rehabilitation, effectively alleviating pain, reducing swelling, promoting tissue regeneration, and restoring joint function remain central clinical challenges. Although modern medical rehabilitation demonstrates certain therapeutic efficacy, it is often accompanied by adverse drug effects or poor patient compliance. Acupuncture, as a gem of traditional Chinese medicine, has demonstrated remarkable clinical value in bone and joint rehabilitation due to its unique advantages of “unblocking meridians, harmonizing qi and blood, and reinforcing healthy qi while eliminating pathogens.” This article systematically elucidates the modern biological mechanisms by which acupuncture facilitates bone and joint repair, details acupuncture clinical strategies based on the principles of “equal emphasis on tendons and bones” and “staged treatment,” and objectively evaluates the definitive efficacy of acupuncture in knee osteoarthritis, post-fracture rehabilitation, shoulder injuries, and spinal degenerative diseases through multidimensional clinical data charts (including efficacy comparisons, timelines, and micro-level indicator analyses). The aim of this study is to provide high-quality evidence based medical evidence for the standardized and international application of acupuncture in orthopedic rehabilitation.

摘要： 骨与关节疾病（如骨关节炎、骨折术后、软组织损伤等）的高发病率给全球医疗系统带来了沉重负担。在骨与关节的修复与康复过程中，如何有效缓解疼痛、消除肿胀、促进组织再生及恢复关节功能是临床的核心难点。现代医学康复虽有一定疗效，但常伴随药物副作用或患者依从性差等问题。针灸作为传统中医学的瑰宝，凭借其“疏通经络、调和气血、扶正祛邪”的独特优势，已在骨关节康复领域展现出卓越的临床价值。本文系统梳理了针灸促进骨关节修复的现代生物学机制，详细阐述了基于“筋骨并重”与“分期论治”原则的针灸临床策略，并通过多维度的临床数据图表（含疗效对比、时间轴及微观指标分析），客观评估了针灸在膝骨关节炎、骨折术后康复、肩部损伤及脊柱退行性疾病中的确切疗效。本文旨在为针灸在骨科康复领域的标准化与国际化应用提供高质量的循证医学依据。

Abstract: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease pathologically characterized primarily by demyelination of nerve fibers in the white matter of the central nervous system (CNS), including the brain and spinal cord. Its pathogenesis is associated with immune dysfunction, viral infection, genetic predisposition and other factors. The core clinical manifestations include limb weakness, diplopia, numbness, unsteady gait and limb paralysis, which severely impair patients’ quality of life.

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), multiple sclerosis falls under the category of flaccidity syndrome. Emotional disturbance, invasion of external damp-heat pathogens, overstrain and excessive sexual activity can damage visceral meridian qi, resulting in malnutrition of tendons and vessels, insufficient qi and blood perfusion, and inadequate nourishment caused by blood deficiency.

The cerebral cortex acts as the supreme regulatory center for somatic motor function. The scalp contains projection zones corresponding to functional regions of the cerebral cortex. Scalp acupuncture can improve cerebral cortical blood circulation, rapidly enhance cortical function and regulate the central nervous system to exert therapeutic effects.

Abdominal acupuncture is a needling therapy for systemic disorders via stimulating specific abdominal acupoints. The modern “abdominal brain” theory has confirmed that the abdominal neural network realizes bidirectional information communication with the central nervous system through the gut-brain axis, providing a scientific basis for abdominal acupuncture to modulate CNS function. Compared with conventional body acupuncture, the combined therapy of scalp acupuncture and abdominal acupuncture for multiple sclerosis features rapid onset and definite short-term efficacy, and can rapidly relieve patients’ core symptoms.

摘要： 多发性硬化症是中枢神经系统（脑、脊髓）白质神经纤维脱髓鞘病变为核心病理特征的自身免疫性疾病。病因与免疫异常、病毒感染、遗传等因素相关，临床核心症状包括肢体无力、复视、感觉麻木、行走不稳、肢体瘫痪等，严重影响生活质量。中医学认为多发性硬化症属于痿症治疗范围，内伤七情，外感湿热，劳倦色欲，都能损伤内脏经气，导致筋脉失养，经血不能灌溉，血虚不能荣养。大脑皮质是调节躯体运动控制躯体运动的最高级中枢，头皮上有和大脑皮层功能相一致的投射区，头针的治疗作用能改善大脑皮层的血运，快速提高大脑皮层功能，调节中枢神经系统，达到治疗疾病的目的。腹针是通过针刺腹部特定穴位治疗全身疾病的一种针刺方法。现代研究提出“腹脑”概念证实，腹部神经网络可通过“肠- 脑轴”与中枢神经系统形成双向信息传递，为腹针调控中枢神经系统功能提供科学支撑。采用头针与腹针联合治疗多发性硬化症，较常规体针治疗具有起效快、短期疗效明确的优势，可快速缓解患者的核心症状。

Abstract: Objective To evaluate the implementation efficacy of the “Standard for Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in Diabetes Prevention and Treatment” in secondary hospitals and community health service centers, and to explore a community-based application model for TCM in managing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods Taking Nanyuan Hospital in Fengtai District, Beijing as the core implementation unit, the study collaborated with six community health service centers in the jurisdiction. Through training lectures, expert community visits, and health education initiatives, standardized TCM diagnostic and therapeutic techniques for T2DM were disseminated to primary care settings. A total of 100 T2DM patients were enrolled for efficacy observation. In addition to conventional Western medical treatment, TCM syndrome differentiation-based therapy was administered for a one-month period. Changes in fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-hour postprandial glucose (2hPG), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and TCM syndrome scores were monitored before and after treatment. Results After 25 training sessions attended by over 300 community physicians, more than 90% of physicians mastered the TCM diagnostic and therapeutic protocols for diabetes. Community awareness of TCM-based diabetes treatment increased from 50% to 80%, and the proportion of patients willing to accept TCM therapy rose from 50% to 70%. Clinical observations demonstrated significant reductions in FPG, 2hPG, and HbA1c levels posttreatment (P<0.05), with an overall efficacy rate of 87% and a marked decrease in TCM syndrome scores (P<0.05). Conclusion The integrated “hospital-community” model for implementing the “Standard for TCM in Diabetes Prevention and Treatment” is feasible, effectively enhancing primary care TCM service capabilities, improving clinical outcomes for diabetic patients, and demonstrating substantial social benefits and application value.

Abstract: Recent data from Canada show that over 254,000 new cancer cases and nearly 88,000 deaths are projected for 2026, with cancer remaining the leading cause of death. Based on the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) principle “When vital Qi resides within, evil Qi cannot invade,” and the doctrines “a person with stomach Qi lives, one without stomach Qi dies” and “the kidney is the foundation of pre-heaven, the spleen is the foundation of post-heaven,” this paper systematically discusses the relationship between diet and cancer. It proposes that high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) can serve as quantifiable indicators of“ vital Qi” and“ evil Qi,” respectively, and defines the “high-risk zone for cancer” in terms of lipid thresholds based on large-scale epidemiological studies. It also incorporates the 2026 Nature Medicine studies on fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) combined with immunotherapy, revealing the gut microbiota as a microscopic carrier of “vital Qi.” Moreover, it introduces the classification of phlegm-resolving, phlegm-generating, and fermented foods from ancient Chinese herbal classics, consistent with modern nutrition. Finally, it provides practical food lists and dietary fiber recommendations. This paper is the first to quantitatively correlate HDL/LDL with the TCM concept of Zheng and Xie, and to integrate ancient classics with modern research, offering an actionable scientific approach to dietary cancer prevention.

摘要：加拿大最新数据显示，2026 年预计新增癌症病例超25.4 万，死亡近8.8 万，癌症仍居首要死因。本文立足中医“正气存内，邪不可干”理论，结合“有胃气则生”“肾为先天之本，脾为后天之本”等学说，系统论述饮食与癌症的关系。文章提出高密度脂蛋白（HDL）与低密度脂蛋白（LDL）可分别作为“正气”与“邪气”的量化指标，并基于大规模流行病学研究界定“患癌高风险区域”的血脂临界值。同时，结合2026 年《自然医学》发表的粪菌移植联合免疫治疗研究，揭示肠道菌群为“正气”的微观载体。引入历代本草典籍中祛痰湿、生痰湿及发酵食材分类，与现代营养学相互印证。最后提供具体可行的食材清单与膳食纤维方案。本文首次将HDL/LDL 与中医正邪理论量化对应，并结合古籍与现代研究，为饮食防癌提供了可操作的科学方案。

Abstract: Pulse diagnosis is central to TCM diagnostics, yet it has long faced the dilemma: “easy to understand in mind, difficult to distinguish under the fingers.” Based on the discourse in Plain Questions: Discussion of the Healthy Person’s Qi and Manifestations regarding “five pulsations per breath cycle,” this paper systematically expounds the theoretical origins, measurement methods, classification criteria, and clinical applications of the “Pulse-Breath Modality” (Mai Xi Shu) of Chang Sang Jun pulse modality. The pulse-breath ratio is defined as the patient’s pulse rate per minute divided by the respiratory rate per minute. A ratio <4 indicates “diminished qi” (Shao Qi, cold/vacuity pattern), 4–5 indicates “healthy person” (Ping Ren, balanced or mixed vacuity/repletion), and >5 indicates “restless pulse” (Mai Zao, repletion/heat pattern). The paper analyzes the pathogenesis of these three types and summarizes corresponding principles of formula selection (e.g., for Shao Qi use Xiao Jian Zhong Tang and its modifications; for Mai Zao use Da Chai Hu Tang; for Ping Ren use combined modified formulas) and acupuncture treatment (for Shao qi select foot six meridians with supplementation; for Mai Zao select hand six meridians with draining). The pulse-breath ratio transforms pulse diagnosis from a subjective experience into a quantifiable, standardized objective indicator, helping to grasp the“ outline and principle” of TCM pattern differentiation and treatment, and providing a simple and reliable basis for clinical decision-making, treatment, and prognosis.

摘要：脉诊是中医诊断学的核心，但长期存在“心中易了，指下难明”的困境。本文基于《素问·平人气象论》中“呼吸定息脉五动”等论述，系统阐释长桑君脉学“脉息术”的理论渊源、测量方法、分型标准及其临床运用。脉息比定义为患者1 分钟脉搏次数与呼吸频率之比，其比值＜ 4为“少气”（虚证、寒证），4 ～ 5 为“平人”（平和或虚实夹杂），＞ 5 为“脉躁”（实证、热证）。文章梳理了三者的病机内涵，并总结出相应的遣方用药原则（如少气用小建中汤类方、脉躁用大柴胡汤、平人用合方化裁）及针灸治疗方案（少气取足六经补法、脉躁取手六经泻法）。脉息比将脉诊从主观体验转化为可量化、标准化的客观指标，有助于抓住中医理法方药运用的“纲纪”，为临床辨证、治疗及预后判断提供简便而可靠的依据。

Abstract: 

Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy and application value of Tianyi Acupuncture combined with Shaoshanhuo manipulation in the treatment of cold pain syndrome.
