To lay the literature foundation for the study of the processing mechanism of Shengma(Cimicifugae Rhizoma,CR)by clarifying the origin of the theory of “different use of raw and processing products”and sorting out the experience of ancient and modern use and modern research progress.
By systematically consulting relatedmateriamedica works and ancient and modern medical records,it excavated the origin track of “differentuse of raw and processing products”on the clinical experience,the process of theory formation and the relationship with Chinese medicine processing. The historical evolution on the method of processing and the clinicalexperience of CR were systematically reviewed through the research of materiamedica. And the modern research situation of “differentuse of raw and processing products”of CR was summarized through reviewing the literature.
The experience of “different use of raw and processing products” first appeared in the Eastern Han Dynasty,and its theory was formed in the Jin and Yuan Dynasty. Furthermore,the theory of “differentuse of raw and processing products” was used to guide the processing of Chinese medicine in the Ming and Qing Dynasties,which expanded the varieties of Chinese medicine decoction pieces and enriched the processing theory of Chinese medicine. There are various processing methods of CR,including honey-frying,oven earth-frying,yellow rice wine-frying,etc.,and there are differences use among processed products of CR:raw products for detoxification and processing-products for rising Yang.
CR has a long history of clinical use in the aspect of differentuse of raw and processing products. It is helpful to deepen the understanding of the scientific connotation of the theory of “differentuse of raw and processing products” in Chinese medicine processing to accelerate the research of material basis and processing mechanism of CR. This review excavated and sorted out the theoretical origin track of “different use of raw and processing products” and the using experience and modern research progress of CR,which provided references for the accurate understanding of the theory of “differentuse of raw and processing products” of Chinese medicine,the using characteristics of CR based on“different use of raw and processing products”,and the rational clinical application of different decoction of CR.
