He is Zhou Zhongying, a master of traditional Chinese medicine.
Deeply cultivated in the apricot forest for 75 years, Zhou Zhongying has devoted her life to the revitalization and development of traditional Chinese medicine, highlighting the extraordinary achievements and grandmaster demeanor of a generation of traditional Chinese medicine. "Originated from traditional Chinese medicine, from the heart of the West to the West;Inherit and develop, return to traditional Chinese medicine. Zhou Zhongying has used her life's energy to make outstanding contributions to the "inheritance of essence, integrity and innovation" of traditional Chinese medicine.
Embarking on the path of TCM is "natural".
Zhou Zhongying, a master of traditional Chinese medicine, once said that it was "natural" for him to embark on the road of traditional Chinese medicine.
In his early years, his father Zhou Xiaozhai was famous in the township for being good at acute infectious diseases such as dysentery, malaria, and typhoid. Zhou Zhongying, who inherited the family motto and was familiar with it, has always been very concerned about the prevention and treatment of acute and serious diseases with traditional Chinese medicine. Zhou Zhongying recalled that when he was still young, he followed his father to the clinic, and listened to his father teach medical theory and medical Tao at night.
At the age of 13, Zhou Zhongying officially studied Chinese medicine with his fatherBy the age of 17, he was able to follow the houseIn her early 20s, Zhou Zhongying opened a clinic in her hometown. In 1947, Zhou Zhongying, who already had some clinical practice experience, was admitted to the advanced course of traditional Chinese medicine physicians at Shanghai New China Medical College. At that time, the famous old Chinese medicine practitioners in Shanghai gave lectures and clinical teaching, which enabled him to further consolidate the theoretical and clinical skills of Chinese medicine, understand the specialties of different medical schools, and make his thinking more broad. In 1955, Zhou Zhongying became the first batch of students of Jiangsu Provincial School of Traditional Chinese Medicine with excellent results, and after graduating in 1956, she stayed in the Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine to work.
Zhou Zhongying was the vice president of Jiangsu Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the president of Nanjing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine (now renamed Nanjing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine). For a long time, Zhou Zhongying has focused on two major issues in the field of TCM internal medicine: one is the emergency department, which he believes can make up for the shortcomings of TCM and can be researched according to clinical needs, such as SARS, influenza, new crown, etc.;The other is intractable diseases, which he believes can promote the strengths of Chinese medicine and give full play to the advantages and characteristics of the field of TCM internal medicine.
He has "fought" countless plagues throughout his life.
In the seventies and eighties of the last century, the incidence and fatality rate of epidemic hemorrhagic fever increased significantly, and Jiangsu was a high-incidence area at that time. Professor Ye Fang, director of the academic thought inheritance studio of Zhou Zhongying, a master of traditional Chinese medicine, told reporters that the leaders of the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Health and the epidemic prevention department attached great importance to it, and in order to strengthen the role of traditional Chinese medicine in the prevention and treatment of hemorrhagic fever, Professor Zhou Zhongying was transferred to participate in the prevention and treatment of hemorrhagic fever in 1982. Zhou Zhongying was ordered to lead the team to go deep into the epidemic area in northern Jiangsu for nearly ten years, treated more than 1,000 patients, summarized and refined the theory of "three poisons cause disease", and the case fatality rate of patients by the team increased from an average of 7 at that time66% to 111%。
Not only the hemorrhagic fever of that year, but also the SARS virus in 2003, and then to influenza A and the new crown, Zhou Lao has never been absent, and has always been worried about the safety of the people. Even if I am too old to go to the front line, I still use ** to guide me remotely. Zhou Zhongying** and Tong Xiaolin, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, recalled that the teacher often said, "Traditional Chinese medicine is not slow, and there is a lot to be done to fight the epidemic." ”
At the beginning of 2020, at the age of 93, he was still contributing to the prevention and control of the new crown epidemic. Ye Fang recalled that in the early days of the epidemic, he came to the door with the relevant materials he had collected and sorted, "I didn't expect that Zhou Lao was very sensitive, and he had already mastered a wealth of information for the first time, and he had already had a very deep thought." Immediately afterwards, Zhou Zhongying instructed the academic team to go to the designated hospital to collect first-hand clinical data and conduct comprehensive analysis, which played a guiding role in the formation of the TCM treatment plan in Jiangsu Province and the diagnosis and treatment plan of the TCM medical team in Hubei.
According to Mr. Zhou's request, we report the latest progress of the epidemic once a day. After the community began to close the management, we sent the collected information to the community property on behalf of the handover, and then we improved it after he revised it word by word, and the cycle went back and forth, and kept improving. Ye Fang said that Zhou Zhongying guided the students to treat patients on the front line, and at the same time improved the treatment ideas through clinical data. He formulated the "Jiangsu Province New Coronary Pneumonia Traditional Chinese Medicine Identification and Treatment Plan (Third Edition)", and also developed a series of prescriptions to promote the use inside and outside the province.
In addition to guiding Jiangsu's local "anti-epidemic" work, he also guided the people on the front line of Wuhan through communication, and helped the Jiangsu Provincial Traditional Chinese Medicine Medical Team and the National Traditional Chinese Medicine Medical Team to hand over a report card of "winning the battle and zero infection".
Independent innovation promotes the development of traditional Chinese medicine.
Originated from traditional Chinese medicine, from the heart of the Chinese to the West, inherited and developed, and returned to traditional Chinese medicine. Zhou Zhongying has been committed to promoting the development of traditional Chinese medicine in independent innovation, he believes: "There is no real innovation without inheritance, and innovation is original under the guidance of traditional Chinese medicine theory." ”
In the early days of the establishment of Jiangsu Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine and during his tenure as the president of Nanjing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Zhou Zhongying adhered to the direction of running a school with the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine and edited a large number of national unified textbooks. "In 1962, at the meeting of the Ministry of Health in Lushan, Zhou Lao contributed all his internal medicine lectures, and in 1963, the second edition of our country's textbook adopted Zhou Lao's lectures as a blueprint for the compilation of "Internal Medicine of Traditional Chinese Medicine". Professor Wu Mianhua, a national famous Chinese medicine doctor, told reporters, "Zhou Lao proposed that the internal medicine of traditional Chinese medicine should take the syndrome differentiation of the viscera as the core and carry out the systematic classification of internal medicine of traditional Chinese medicine." ”
Zhou Zhongying has edited 7 editions of TCM internal medicine textbooks, and the construction of the TCM internal medicine discipline system is one of his major contributions to the construction of TCM discipline. Since the 70s of the last century, he has set out to create the general theory of internal medicine - the outline of syndrome differentiation and treatment, which has established the core of syndrome differentiation and the basis of the systematic classification of internal medicine diseases, which has opened up a new way for the development of clinical professional differentiation. Zhou Zhongying has also done a lot of pioneering work for the construction of the discipline system of TCM internal medicine, making it a relatively independent sub-discipline.
In her old age, Zhou Zhongying summarized and sublimated all her clinical experience and new academic theories, systematically constructed a "new system of pathogenesis differentiation of traditional Chinese medicine" with the "Thirteen Pathogenesis Articles" as the outline, and continued to promote the construction of traditional Chinese medicine with inheritance and innovation.
The pencil in his hand never fades.
After the development of higher education in traditional Chinese medicine in New China, Zhou Zhongying has always regarded the inheritance of traditional Chinese medicine as her most important mission. He taught students according to their aptitude, taught them all over the world, and sent a large number of talents to the Chinese medicine community, many of whom have become academicians, famous doctors, famous teachers, and famous experts.
Those who are familiar with Zhou Zhongying know that for decades, whether it is revising and reviewing articles for students or colleagues, he will carefully read every word and punctuation, and he will make annotations with pencils. Tong Xiaolin recalled in an interview with reporters that what Zhou Lao has not changed over the years is to "listen", even if it is a view that is contrary to his own.
The pencil handwriting may fade with the passage of time, but Dr. Chow's sincere demeanor will never fade in the hearts of students. In 2005, Zhou Zhongying's inheritance studio was established, and the intelligent database of more than 80,000 medical records and more than 30,000 patient data was built, which inserted the "wings of science and technology" for the inheritance of traditional Chinese medicine.
Zhou Zhongying knows that medical records are one of the best carriers for the inheritance of traditional Chinese medicine.
It is precisely because Zhou Lao paid special attention to the accumulation of clinical first-hand data and pathology in the course of teaching for decades, rather than just relying on memories, that he provided materials for our inherited clinical scientific research. Ye Fang said: "After more than ten years of exploration, we use computers, AI technology, and a variety of data collection methods, including repeatedly asking Zhou Lao for verification. Under the guidance of Mr. Zhou, we have compiled a series of academic thoughts and achievements of Mr. Zhou, and also explored a new method of inheritance, which is currently being promoted and applied in China. ”
With the help of information technology, the arduous and vast work of sorting out medical records has become more efficient. It makes it possible to preserve, sort out and excavate the clinical experience of famous and old Chinese medicine practitioners in real time. The three generations of the old, middle and young people of the studio have spent more than ten years to relay this heavy "inheritance" mission.
At 5:20 on October 2, 2023, Zhou Zhongying passed away in Nanjing at the age of 96.
