Abstract:

Objective   To investigate traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) prescription, Chinese herbal medicine property and therapeutic effects of TCM as a whole, construct the Bayes network, and clarify the relationship and internal action mechanism among them.  Methods   Based on historical books, such as Shen Nong's Herbal Classic, Famous doctor Don′t Record and New Materia Medica, 60 kinds of TCM were selected to build the Bayes network, and it was used to perform Bayes concluding.  Results   The Bayes network was stable and reliable to evaluate direct and indirect relationship among TCM prescription, properties and therapeutic effects using the Bayes formula.  Conclusion   The Bayes network can be used to investigate the causal and latent relationships among prescription, properties and effects of TCM, providing some theories for understanding TCM.

Key words: Bayesian network; Traditional Chinese medicine prescription; Property of traditional Chinese medicine
