The Prescription Regularity Investigation of Mercury(Zuotai)Detoxification Formula in Tibetan Classic Medical Literatures Based on Data Mining
Objective This study aimed to explore the prescription regularity of Mercury(Zuotai)detoxification formula in Tibetan classic medical literatures based on data mining.Methods Mercury(Zuotai)detoxification formula of were collected from 22 ancient Tibetan medical literatures including the Four Medical Tantras,Medicine of Moon King,One Hundred Thousand Fists and Eight Essential Collections of Medicine,et al.The database of drugs,medicinal properties,five-source,six-flavor,and three-chemical flavor was established.R 4.2.2,IBM SPSS Modeler 18.0,Origion 2024 and other software were used to conduct frequency statistical analysis,Apriori association rule analysis and cluster analysis of the category,property and flavor,and five-source of Mercury(Zuotai)detoxification compound drugs,and interpret the statistical results in combination with the theory of Tibetan medicine.Results A total of 52 formulas were collected,containing 213 Tibetan medicines,with a cumulative frequency of 1066 times.The medicines involved in the prescription are mainly plant-based,and most of them are"cold"drugs;the medicinal flavor of drugs is mainly bitter,sweet,and pungent,with the five sources of emptiness,wind and water predominating;the most frequently occurring medicine was Mercury(Zuotai),followed by Terminalia Chebula,Musk,Geranium,Saffron,and Nutmeg.High-frequency medicines such as Mercury(Zuotai),Musk,Strychni Semen,Aconitum Tanguticum,Pedicularis Trichoglossa,Swertia Verticillifolia,and Sinapis Alba have detoxification effects.Musk also has the effect of aromatherapy,Terminalia Chebula can reconcile the nature of the medicine and the three causes of the disease effectively.The"six good medicines",including Geranium,Saffron,Nutmeg,White cardamom,Cloves,and Tsaoko Amomum Fruit,can harmonize qi and blood,and treat diseases of internal organs of the body.The analysis of association rules showed 24 pairs of medicines combinations with a support degree exceeding 59.62,and 9 groups of three-drug combinations,predominantly involving Mercury(Zuotai),Terminalia Chebula,Musk,and"six good medicines".The cluster analysis of medicines with a frequency of>10 produced 7 clustered formulas,primarily characterized by their efficacy in clearing away heat and toxins,as well as regulating the five internal organs and six viscera.Conclusion Most medicines in the Mercury(Zuotai)detoxification formula are primarily composed of botanicals,cold and bitter drugs,which is consistent with the heat-clearing and detoxifying therapy in Tibetan medicine.The medication pattern of the Mercury(Zuotai)detoxification formula is characterized by the use of Terminalia Chebula to reconcile the medicinal properties,detoxifying medicines to detoxify,aromatic drugs to rapidly eliminate or expel toxins,and six good medicines to protect the viscera.The combined use of these medicines plays a role in clearing away heat and toxins,opening up the orifices and collaterals,and harmonizing the functions of the viscera.The study provides data to support the medication rules of the Tibetan medicine Mercury(Zuotai)detoxification prescription.
