Acupuncture Treating Heart Diseases Based on Sixty JiaZi and Eight Palaces <br/>—Mathematical Reasoning of Treatment Principle Based on Yin Yang Wu Xing Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (V)

Theory of Sixty JiaZi (60 甲子) is useful in understanding a human body disease. By using mathematical reasoning based on Yin Yang Wu Xing Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), this paper demonstrates the treatment principle: “seize the momentum of development, hasten lucky avoids disaster” (顺势而为, 趋吉避凶). Sixty JiaZi is hidden behind eight palaces. The first or second transfer law of human body energies of Sixty JiaZi changes according to the different blood pH values of a human body whether in the normal range or not, respectively, assuming that the range of blood pH values of a human body is divided into four parts from small to large. Both second and third are for a healthy human body. Both the root-cause and symptoms come from the first transfer law of human body energies. And both first and fourth are for an unhealthy human body. Both the root-cause and symptoms come from the second transfer law of human body energies. The treating disease of a human body should protect and maintain the balance of two incompatibility relations: the loving relationship and the killing relationship. As an application, acupuncture is used to treat atrial premature beats as congenital heart disease.

Therapy of Suppressing Yang and Astringing Yin for the Treatment of Cancer-Related Insomnia

The pathogenesis of can cer-related in som nia(CRI)mainly in eludes,first,the flow of cancerous toxin leading to the disorder of visceral qi;second,cancer-related radiotherapy and chemotherapy belonging to"exogenous pathogenic factors"to a certain extent,which can further aggravate visceral disorders.The therapeutic principle of Chinese medicine is to tranquilize the mind on the basis of regulating viscera,suppressing yang,and astringing yin.On this theoretical basis,Professor Zheng Yuling created a representative prescription of Zhenjing Anshen Granules(镇静安神颗粒)which can achieve the co-regulation of the heart,liver,and kidney,tranquilizing the mind and nourishing the blood.Clinically,the selection of prescriptions and medicines needs to be considered due to factors such as different treatment stages and differ-ences in patients'constitutions.

Image Mathematics—Mathematical Intervening Principle Based on “Yin Yang Wu Xing” Theory in Traditional Chinese Mathematics (I)

By using mathematical reasoning, this paper demonstrates the mathematical intervening principle: “Virtual disease is to fill his mother but real disease is to rush down his son” (虚则补其母, 实则泄其子) and “Strong inhibition of the same time, support the weak” (抑强扶弱) based on “Yin Yang Wu Xing” Theory in image mathematics of Traditional Chinese Mathematics (TCMath). We defined generalized relations and generalized reasoning, introduced the concept of steady multilateral systems with two non-compatibility relations, and discussed its energy properties. Later based on the intervention principle in image mathematics of TCMath and treated the research object of the image mathematics as a steady multilateral system, it has been proved that the mathematical intervening principle is true. The kernel of this paper is the existence and reasoning of the non-compatibility relations in steady multilateral systems, and it accords with the oriental thinking model.

Mathematical Reasoning of Treatment Principle Based on “Yin Yang Wu Xing” Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine

By using mathematical reasoning, this paper demonstrates the treatment principle: “Virtual disease is to fill his mother but real disease is to rush down his son” and “Strong inhibition of the same time, support the weak” based on “Yin Yang Wu Xing” Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). We defined two kinds of opposite relations and one kind of equivalence relation, introduced the concept of steady multilateral systems with two non-compatibility relations, and discussed its energy properties. Later based on the treatment of TCM and treated the healthy body as a steady multilateral system, it has been proved that the treatment principle is true. The kernel of this paper is the existence and reasoning of the non-compatibility relations in steady multilateral systems, and it accords with the oriental thinking model.

Mathematical Reasoning of Treatment Principle Based on “Yin Yang Wu Xing” Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (II)

By using mathematical reasoning, this paper demonstrates the treatment principle: “Do not treat a disease after it has occurred. But treat the disease before it will occur” (不治已病治未病) based on “Yin Yang Wu Xing” Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). We defined generalized relations and reasoning, introduced the concept of generalized steady multilateral systems, and discussed its energy properties. Later based on the treatment of TCM and treated the healthy body as a steady multilateral system, it has been proved that the treatment principle above is true. The kernel of this paper is the existence and reasoning of the non-compatibility relations in steady multilateral systems, and it accords with the oriental thinking model.

Acupuncture Treating Dystrophy Based on pH <br/>—Mathematical Reasoning of Treatment Principle Based on Yin Yang Wu Xing Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (III)

Theory of both Zangxiang (藏象) and Jingluo (经络) is useful in understanding disease. By using mathematical reasoning based on Yin Yang Wu Xing Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), this paper demonstrates the treatment principle: “Searching for a root cause of disease in cure, treatment of both the root-cause and symptoms at the same time” (治病求本, 标本兼治). It means that for a human body, there is the mathematical structure of both Zangxiang and Jingluo as her/his second physiological system. It can be used to determine both the root-cause and symptoms of the sick organ by using both Zangxiang and Jingluo. In general, for the human blood pH value, the normal range of theory is [7.34539, 7.45461] nearly to [7.35, 7.45], and the center is 7.4. The first or second transfer law of a human body’s energies changes according to the different blood pH values whether in the normal range or not. Human disease treatment should protect and maintain the balance of two incompatibility relations: the loving relationship and the killing relationship. As an application, acupuncture is used to treat limb-girdle muscular dystrophy.

Acupuncture Treating Heart Disease Based on Eight Palaces or Eight Veins <br/>—Mathematical Reasoning of Treatment Principle Based on Yin Yang Wu Xing Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (IV)

Theory of eight palaces (八宫) or eight veins (八脉) is useful in understanding the basic sick subsystems that may be to fall ills as the root-cause. By using mathematical reasoning based on Yin Yang Wu Xing Theory in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), this paper demonstrates the treatment principle: “Even if all changed, it is hard to change one’s nature” (江山易改, 本性难移). The eight palaces or eight veins can be used to diagnose basic sick subsystems that may be to fall ills as the root-cause. The first or second transfer law of human body energies of the eight palaces or eight veins according to the different blood pH values of a human body whether in the normal range or not, respectively, assuming that the range of blood pH value is divided into four parts from small to large. Both second and third are for a healthy human body. Both the root-cause and symptoms come from the first transfer law of human body energies. And both first and fourth are for an unhealthy human body. Both the root-cause and symptoms come from the second transfer law of human body energies. A disease treatment should protect and maintain the balance of two incompatibility relations: the loving relationship and the killing relationship. As an application, acupuncture is used to treat atrial premature beats as a congenital heart disease.

从越南汉喃医籍《人身赋》看“阴平阳秘”

“阴阳”观念属于中国古典传统文化,“阴平阳秘”思想则是“阴阳”理念与中医学结合的创新性体现。越南汉喃医籍《人身赋》中的“阴平阳秘”不单一释为“阴阳平衡”或“阴阳清净宁谧”之义。通过比较《人身赋》与《黄帝内经》中“阴平阳秘”思想,发现《人身赋》中的“阴平阳秘”继承了我国中医学文化“男七女八”“阴阳平衡”“饮食常有节”等观点,又进一步发展了中医学理论,主要体现在对“阴平阳秘”的理解中加入自己的观点,如推崇“月相盈亏”的相关性,秉持“辰日之虚”的观点等,使这些思想在域外焕发新的生机,这一观点的创新不仅对我国文化的交流传播有重要意义,也进一步加深了我们对“阴平阳秘”思想的认识,为当下更立体、多元地研究我国中医药文化的历史提供了域外视角。

从阳化气阴成形角度探讨阴阳二气与能量代谢的内在联系

阴阳既相互依存,又相互转化。能量代谢是生命活动的重要表现。“阳化气,阴成形”理论指出,阴气是为阳气提供能量转化的物质基础,阳气是为阴气提供能量转化的原动力,是物质与能量相互转化的形式之一。氧化还原平衡是维持机体正常能量代谢的重要因素,若机体线粒体功能下降,氧化还原失衡,则会引起自由基累积和氧化应激,从而导致能量代谢异常。阴阳平衡与氧化还原平衡之间存在共性,对维持机体内稳态有重要作用。文章从“阳化气,阴成形”角度探讨阴阳二气与能量代谢的内在联系,进一步探索深圳地区亚健康人群阳气功能下降与阳虚质形成的原因,为阳虚质客观化评估提供新思路。

基于“阴平阳秘”理论探讨失眠的因机治则

失眠在中医范畴中名“不寐”,是一种以睡眠障碍为主症的疾病。随着社会快速发展,失眠等发病率也在逐年增加,不仅影响患者的日常生活与工作,给心理也带来负面作用。中医对于失眠病因的认识多种多样,通过六经、五脏六腑、气血营卫等方面治疗失眠的思路纷繁复杂。文章通过“阴平阳秘”理论探讨失眠的病因、病机及治疗原则,为临床治疗提供思路。“阴平阳秘”理论属于中医基础理论范畴,最早见于《黄帝内经》,其旨在论述阴阳动态平衡的状态。研究以“阴平阳秘”为论据,提出了睡眠机制和人体的阴阳状态是息息相关的,又指出了失眠的基本病机,实为阳盛不得入阴,阳亢于外,虚为阴虚不能纳阳,阳气浮越于外,也就是阴阳失调导致的,即阳盛阴衰,阴阳失交,探讨了失眠正是阴阳动态失衡所导致的。从情志、饮食、久病体虚、年老体虚以及失治误治四个方面切入,全面探讨阴阳与不寐的关系,简单探讨了阴阳结合下治疗失眠的方法,论述阴阳动态平衡在治疗不寐过程中的重要意义,丰富不寐因机治则的理论基础,为临床治疗不寐提供辨证与诊疗思路。

基于“阴平阳秘”理论探讨中西医防治自身免疫性甲状腺炎

自身免疫性甲状腺炎(autoimmune thyroiditis,AIT)是一种常见的自身免疫性甲状腺疾病,其病因病机虽至今尚未明确,但其研究重点在于纠正自身免疫功能紊乱状态。这与中医学追求的“阴平阳秘”的状态颇为相似。中医学认为其由先天体质、情志饮食等多因素致病,以阳虚为本,阴盛为标,与气滞,痰凝,血瘀等病理表现相关,涉及肝,脾,肾等多个脏腑。文章基于“阴平阳秘”理论,以期为中西医结合诊治AIT提供新的参考。

阴平阳秘刍议

文章重点讨论“阴平阳秘”的真实本意,反对阴阳平衡的说法,把阴阳关系局限在空间的物质的量的概念,僵化了中医的思维方式。阴平阳秘描述的是阴阳的动态,处于阳态时不要太过生发,贵在一个“秘”字,使阳得阴助。若阳气过亢,势必消铄阴精,阴精多损,阳无根基,则阳亦必随之而虚;处于阴态时收降不宜太骤,贵在一个“平”字,使阴得阳生。若阴气过盛,则会耗伤阳气,本来冬季微弱的阳气就会生发无望,阴阳失根,则精气乃绝。秘和平要求的是动态的“稳”,是阴阳的互相制约,不能说“阳平阴秘”。阴平阳秘是养生或治病的根本大法则,对临床养生或治病有着重大指导意义。
