何炎燊经典内科流派运用寒温融合理论的临床实践及验案举隅OA

He Yanshen,a clinical practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),advocated prioritizing therapeutic efficacy over rigid adherence to the classical theories and formulas for cold-induced disease and warm disease.He proposed that a comprehensive syndrome differentiation should be performed under the specific circumstances,including the etiology and nature of diseases,and the constitution and lifestyle of patients,and then he established an approach of cold-warm integration.This approach flexibly integrates the classical principles,methods,formulas,and medicinals for cold-induced disease and warm disease,and helps to guide individualized syndrome differentiation and treatment.The clinical practice of He Yanshen's cold-warm integration theory is manifested as follows:for the treatment of dengue fever,emphasis is placed on syndrome differentiation,and cold-warm integration is embodied by the utilization of both acrid-warm exterior-releasing method and acrid-cool heat-clearing method after extensively searching from various classical formulas,so as to rapidly control the progression of the disease and shorten its course;He Yanshen did not blindly follow the historical admonition that Bupleuri Radix consume liver yin,and frequently used it for the treatment of febrile diseases;regarding the viewpoint that purgation should not be allowed to apply too early for cold-induced disease and purgation is contraindicated for warm disease,He Yanshen advocated that timely use of the purgative method will help rebalance the hyperactive or deficient yin-yang state and normalize the disturbed and rebellious qi movement;the key to treat the disease is to gently regulate yin and yang and protect body fluids.Professor Liu Shijian,the second-generation representative inheritor of the He Yanshen Classical Internal Medicine School,and Professor Wang Wenhui,the third-generation representative,have both inherited and further developed the theory of cold-warm integration.He Yanshen's cold-warm integration theory provides new perspectives and methods for the treatment of exogenous febrile diseases and endogenous miscellaneous diseases in traditional Chinese medicine.
