Tibetxya Cao & Yang & Shen & Yin 2021, gen. nov.
No full textTibetxya gen. nov. Type species: Tibetxya motuoensis sp. nov. (Fig.1 A–E, Fig. 2 A–H). Diagnosis: The new genus lacking swimming plates at metatibia and metatarsus degenerated is allied to Paraxya Cao, Chen & Yin, 2019, but differs from latter by length of head and pronotum longer than tegmen, tegmen with Sc vein and R vein, length of metatibia 2.3 times length of apical spurs and 8 th segment of antennae not narrow in base. The new genus is also allied to Xya Latreille, 1809, but differs from latter by the metatibia lacking swimming plates. Etymology: The new genus is name Tibet, Tibetxya showing the new genus from Tibet, China.Published as part of Cao, Cheng-Quan, Yang, Kai-Yan, Shen, Zi-Hao & Yin, Zhan, 2021, A new genus and a new species of pygmy mole cricket from China (Orthoptera: Tridactylidae), pp. 91-94 in Zootaxa 5005 (1) on page 91, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5005.1.8, http://zenodo.org/record/514124
Tonifying Shen-Yin and -Yang Principles in Treating Osteoporosis: All Roads Lead to Rome
No full textTonifying Shen strategy works as an important alternative and complementary method that is widely used to treat osteoporosis in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) based on the proper identification of Zheng. Shen deficiency Zheng is one of the main types of osteoporosis while Shen-Yin and -Yang deficiencies represent two basic principles/types of Shen deficiency. Currently, Tonifying Shen strategy, in particular, the Tonifying Shen-Yin and -Yang principles, has been demonstrated to exert osteoprotective effects. However, the mechanisms by which Tonifying Shen strategy and/or Tonifying Shen-Yin and -Yang principles function in treating osteoporosis are still not clearly understood. Here we first briefly explore current understanding of Tonifying Shen strategy, such as Tonifying Shen prescriptions, herbs, and effective components, in treating osteoporosis. Furthermore, the mechanism of Tonifying Shen-Yang principle in treating osteoporosis is reviewed from the clinic experience, animal, and mechanistic investigation. Moreover, the mechanisms by which Tonifying Shen-Yin principle in treating osteoporosis are established. Finally, we compare the similarity and difference between Tonifying Shen-Yang and -Yin principles in treating osteoporosis. Our findings indicate that both principles exert bone-protective effects in treating osteoporosis by simultaneously stimulating the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into osteoblast and the differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) into osteoclast. However, Tonifying Shen-Yin principle is in favor of increasing bone mineral density (BMD) while Tonifying Shen-Yang principle is in favor of osteoporosis-related syndromes. Our findings indicate that Tonifying Shen-Yin and -Yang principles not only share some similarity but also obtain some difference in treating osteoporosis
Shen Hsui's and Tao Hsin's Way of Zen: A Comparison
No full textAccording to the tradition of the Zen Buddhistic school, the sudden method of Hui Neng follows the orthodox teachings of Hung Jen and Tao Hsin, while the gradual method of Shen Hsin is a heresy. The present paper, based on a comparative study of Shen Hsiu’s and Tao Hsin’s way of Zen, shows that the method of “looking at mind, looking at purity” critized by Hui Neng, is espoused not only by Shen Hsiu but also by Tao Hsin.
Both Tao Hsin and Shen Hsin adhere to the Zen of the La?k?vat?ra S?tra advocated by the earlier Zen masters from Bodhidharma on, but in Hui Neng and the later masters, we find that many ideas derived from the Diamond S?tra are introduced into the way of Zen. This is the reason why Hui Neng takes exception to Tao Hsin’s and Shen Hsin’s “Lank?vat?ra Zen”. Therefore, the distinction between “orthodoxy” and “heresy” in Zen school is not merely a matter of who holds fast to the original teachings of Bodhidharma, there are other factors to be considered
