从气、血、痰论治冠状动脉粥样硬化性心脏病的理论探索及临床应用

冠状动脉粥样硬化性心脏病(简称冠心病)与中医学胸痹心痛病联系密切,作为临床常见的心血管疾病目前已成为严重威胁中老年人生命健康的多发病、常见病。因此,寻找有效的冠心病防治方法已成为迫切需要。近些年来,在冠心病的治疗方式上,传统中医治疗手段已经逐渐步入主流,无论从预防、治疗及预后的任何角度,中医都有着不能替代的优势与作用。中医学在整体观的指导下,基于辨证论治的治疗思路对疾病进行干预。基于古典医籍和丰富的各家学说,并结合中医临床流行病学调查,冠心病中医证候以“阳微阴弦”即“本虚标实”为基本病机,本虚以气虚为主,标实以血瘀、痰浊为主,其中气虚、血瘀、痰浊三者关系密切。故文章以此为切入点,探究历代胸痹心痛病相关著作中关于气虚、血瘀、痰浊的致病机制及三者之间相互依存、互为因果的理论基础,从而以病机言治则,将“益气温阳”“活血化瘀”“化痰逐饮”三法作为中医治疗胸痹的大方向,三法结合,灵活辨证,既重视阴弦之标,又兼顾阳微之本。同时与现代医学相结合,述析“益气、活血、化痰”的现代医学本质,发现其与现代医学所提出的通过正性肌力、抗凝、调脂、稳定斑块等手段抑制动脉粥样硬化形成的理念不谋而合,为临床中西医结合治疗冠心病提供理论基础。通过案例介绍现代医家从气、血、痰论治冠心病的经验,以期为临床提供新思路、新方法。

基于“二阳结谓之消”探讨糖尿病性便秘病机及防治策略

“二阳结谓之消”语出《素问·阴阳别论篇》,是认识糖尿病性便秘的早期记载,但目前学界多据此仅从二阳(足阳明胃经、手阳明大肠经)结滞化热来解释消渴期发生便秘的病机,存在一定局限性。通过考究发现“二阳”并不单指手足阳明经脉或胃肠二腑,而是包括胃、大肠二腑及手足阳明经脉;“结”也并不完全指结热这一病邪,而是指病邪胶结难解、疾病难以治愈的程度,并且“二阳”之热易伤血脉,造成络脉瘀滞。基于对“二阳结谓之消”的重新理解,笔者认为糖尿病性便秘在糖尿病期以“热伤气阴”为主要病机,糖尿病并发症期以热伤血络、血脉瘀滞为主要病机。治疗方面,糖尿病期以清热益气养阴为本,糖尿病并发症期以活血化瘀为核心,此外还需重视体质从化,全面把握糖尿病性便秘的诊治。

基于中医血脉理论谈从脾论治糖尿病血管病变

糖尿病血管病变是糖尿病严重的慢性并发症之一,目前已成为糖尿病患者死亡和致残的主要原因,其巨额的医疗费用给家庭、社会带来沉重的经济负担。文章从血管与血脉的相关性出发,基于中医血脉理论,结合传统医学与现代医学观点,认为脾气虚,运化无力,气机不畅,脂浊不化,致痰浊、瘀血、热毒等病理产物壅滞血脉是糖尿病血管病变发生的重要原因,可累及多个靶器官。结合五脏一体观,从脾为四脏之长、脾与其他四脏的病变关系论述从脾论治糖尿病血管病变的理论依据以及古今医家从脾论治糖尿病血管病的临床思路,并将中西医思想融会贯通,突出从脾论治糖尿病血管病变的重要性。治疗上注重益气养阴、活血解毒、健脾化湿之法,为临床防治糖尿病血管病变提供新思路。
