Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives : This study focuses on the condition Yinynagjiao, which was first mentioned in Huangdineijing, on the cause, mechanism and reason for it being described as fatal. Later doctors’s understanding and treatment of this condition were examined subsequently.
Methods : Verses related to Yinyangjiao from texts such as Huangdineijing, Jinkuiyuhanjing, Maijing were cross-examined focusing on their context and difference in expression with reference to annotations and later texts that mention Yinyangjiao. Based on the findings, its mechanism and treatment methods as found in Wenbing texts were compared with descriptions from previous texts.
Results & Conclusions : According to Huangdineijing, heat disease belongs to the Shanghan category, treated through promoting perspiration. In the confrontational position between JingQi and XieQi, perspiration could be understood as the result of JingQi’s victory that lead to the discharge of XieQi in the form of sweat. Yinyangjiao is the opposite situation where Jing is discharged while heat toxin sinks into the body, thus being fatal, and treatment aimed for perspiration not adequately addressing the main problem which was ultimately expected to resolve through means of solid Yin Jing that would stabilize the pulse in due time. On the other hand, Wenbing scholars saw the pathogen as heat, shifting previous perspectives entirely. As a result, instead of applying pungent/warm medicinals to promote sweating, they suggested the use of cool, sweet/moist medicinals to cool the heat and nourish Yin as means of treating the condition.
