The eleventh volume in the Evidence-based Clinical Chinese Medicine
series is a must read for Chinese medicine practitioners interested
in dermatology. Using a 'whole evidence' approach, this book aims
to provide an analysis of the management of acne vulgaris with
Chinese and integrative medicine.This book describes the
understanding and management of acne vulgaris with conventional
medicine and Chinese medicine. Chinese medicine treatments used in
past eras are analysed through data mining of classical Chinese
medicine books. Several treatments are identified that are still
used in contemporary clinical practice. Attention is then turned to
evaluating the current state of evidence from clinical studies
using an evidence-based medicine approach. Scientific techniques
are employed to evaluate the results from studies of Chinese herbal
medicine, acupuncture and other Chinese medicine therapies. The
findings from these reviews are discussed in terms of the
implications for clinical practice and research.Chinese medicine
practitioners and students can use this book as a desktop reference
to support clinical decision making. Having ready access to the
current state of evidence for herbal formulas and acupuncture
treatments allows practitioners to be confident in providing
evidence-based health care.This book provides an innovative 'whole
evidence' approach to the management of acne vulgaris. Multiple
types of evidence from different sources are reviewed and
synthesized to provide a summary of the available
evidence.Interventions, including oral and topical Chinese herbal
medicine, body and ear acupuncture and combinations of these
therapies, are evaluated for their effect on acne lesion count and
severity, and impact on health-related quality of life.Chinese
medicine treatments that have been frequently used in clinical
studies provide guidance for patient care. This book links
formulas, herbs and acupuncture points with treatment efficacy,
providing the reader with potential for creating new formulas.The
editors of this series are internationally recognised,
well-respected leaders in the field of Chinese medicine and
evidence-based medicine with strong track records in research.
Evidence-based Clinical Chinese Medicine provides a 'whole
evidence' analysis of the Chinese medicine management of herpes
zoster and post-herpetic neuralgia. Evidence from the classical
Chinese medicine literature, contemporary clinical literature, the
outcomes of clinical trials and experimental studies are reviewed,
analysed and synthesised. The data from all these sources are
condensed to provide evidence-based statements which will inform
clinical practice and guide future research.This book has been
designed to be an easy reference at the point of care. During a
patient consultation, Chinese medicine practitioners can refer to
this book for guidance on which Chinese herbal medicine formulas,
specific herbs, or acupuncture points, can best treat their
patient, and be confident there is evidence which supports its
use.Currently, Chinese medicine practitioners who develop a special
interest in a particular health condition such as herpes zoster and
its common sequelae post-herpetic neuralgia have to consult a
variety of sources to further their knowledge. Typically, they use
the contemporary clinical literature to understand the theory,
aetiology, pathogenesis and obtain expert opinions on the Chinese
medicine management of herpes zoster and post-herpetic neuralgia.
They search the electronic literature to identify systematic
reviews of clinical trials, if any exist, to obtain assessments of
the current state of the clinical evidence for particular
interventions. If they have the skills and resources, they may
search the classical Chinese medicine literature for an historical
perspective on treatments that have stood the test of time.This
book provides all of this information for practitioners in one
handy, easy to use reference. This allows practitioners to focus on
their job of providing high quality health care, with the knowledge
it is based on the best available evidence.
