In the third volume of the Evidence-based Clinical Chinese Medicine
series, the authors focus on a challenging dermatological condition
- chronic urticaria. Chronic urticaria can have a significant
impact on quality of life, and while medical management can be
effective, many people experience frequent and unpredictable
recurrence.This book unearths treatments used in classical Chinese
medicine textbooks, many of which are inaccessible to non-Chinese
speaking Chinese medicine practitioners. Oral and topical Chinese
herbal medicines used in pre-modern China for urticaria are
identified, some of which are still in use today. Evidence from
clinical studies has been subject to rigorous evaluation, with
analyses conducted using the internationally recognized
Cochrane-GRADE approach. Chinese herbal medicine formulas and
acupuncture therapies which offer the most potential for treatment
of chronic urticaria are highlighted.This book provides an easy to
use reference for clinicians who are interested in Chinese medicine
management of chronic urticaria.The authors are internationally
recognized, well-respected leaders in the field of Chinese medicine
and evidence-based medicine with strong track records in research.

Evidence-based Clinical Chinese Medicine: Volume 2: Psoriasis
Vulgaris provides a 'whole evidence' analysis of the Chinese
medicine management of psoriasis vulgaris. Evidence from the
classical Chinese medicine literature, contemporary clinical
literature, and 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
psoriasis 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 psoriasis. 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.
