Objectives : The purpose of this paper is to study how medical experts understood ‘Specially Selecting Yangming’ for clinical application.
Methods : After collecting medical texts related to ‘Specially Selecting Yangming’, its meaning and clinical application were examined thoroughly.
Results : 1. The meaning of ‘Specially Selecting Yangming’ was identified in different ways according to the meaning of ‘Yangming.’ It was perceived as Stomach, Yangming meridian, Stomach meridian of Foot Yangming, Spleen and Stomach, Intestine and Stomach by medical experts. 2. Chen Wu-ze and Liu Wan-su understood Wei disease as a form of consumption, and regarded ‘Specially Selecting Yangming’ as tonifying Yangming while Zhang Zi-he put emphasis on Communicating Stomach Qi(胃氣) through vomiting or purgation. Sun Yi-kui insisted on applying it as a precaution. 3. Li Dong-yuan emphasized the cause of Wei disease to be Damp-Heat in the Summer and suggested Qingshuyiqitang and Qingzaotang as remedy. 4. Zhu Zhen-heng’s Purging the South and Reinforcing the North is a more fundamental way of treating Wei disease by stimulating the Water-Fire Axis.
Conclusions : Through a diachronic study of ‘Specially Selecting Yangming’ and its remedy, most medical experts regarded ‘Specially Selecting Yangming’ as tonifying Yangming, but tonifying Liver and Kidney was thought to be a more fundamental treatment.
