Comments of syndrome differentiation thinking mode from the perspective of scientific philosophy

证素辨证是当代中医辨证学研究的重要成果,其鲜明地提出以证素作为辨证的实质与核心来把握复杂多样的证候及证型,为中医辨证提供了执简驭繁的新方法;同时,证素辨证中也体现了丰富的思维方法。笔者从科学哲学的视角出发,通过浅述整体性思维、模糊性思维、非线性复杂性思维等几种思维方式在证素辨证中的运用,旨在更好地运用科学哲学思维,进一步发展证素辨证体系。

‘Syndrome differentiation’based on syndrome elements is an important achievement in the study of differentiation in contemporary Chinese medicine.It clearly puts the use of syndrome elements should be taken as the essence and core of syndrome differentiation to grasp complex and diverse syndromes and syndrome types,which provides a new method for TCM syndrome differentiation to hold simplicity and control complexity.At the same time,the syndrome differentiation also reflects a rich thinking method.From the perspective of philosophy of science,the author describes several thinking modes such as holistic thinking,ambiguous thinking,and nonlinear complexity thinking in syndrome differentiation from the perspective of philosophy of science to further develop the syndrome differentiation system.
