老年慢性气管炎是一种常见多发病。在毛主席的无产阶级卫生路线指引下,我国广大医药卫生人员两年来深入农村、工矿等基层单位与当地赤脚医生一起开展了防治老年慢性气管炎的群众运动。这个运动范围之广、参加研究人员之众及研究进展之迅速是前所未有的。目前已有部分疗效较好、使用安全的药物广泛使用并准备正式生产。这方面的工作很多,资料甚为丰富,本文仅就临床药物研究、药用植物化学及药理研究等方面作一扼要介绍。 Chronic bronchitis is a common and frequently occurring disease. Guided by Chairman Mao’s proletarian health line, the vast majority of medical and health personnel in our country have gone deep into the countryside in the past two years. The grass-roots units such as industrial and mining authorities, together with local barefoot doctors, carried out a mass movement to prevent and treat chronic bronchitis in the elderly. The wide range of sports, the participation of researchers and the rapid advancement of research are unprecedented. At present, some curative effects are good, and the safe use of medicines is widely used and ready for formal production. There are many work in this area, the information is very rich, this article only on clinical drug research, medicinal plant chemistry and pharmacology and other aspects of a brief introduction.
