Wang Haogu (born about 1200-1264 A.D.) was a native of Zhaozhou (now Zhaoxian County, Hebei Province) in Yuan Dynasty. He once studied medicine with Li Gao in Zhang Yuanyuan, but his age was about 20 years younger than Li Gao. Later, he studied with Li Gao and passed on Li's learning. Zhang Yuanyuan emphasized the syndrome differentiation of viscera, and paid attention to distinguish the deficiency and excess of cold and heat in the viscera where the lesion was located. Li Gao expounded the theory of spleen and stomach, especially the discussion of deficiency syndrome of internal injury of spleen and stomach. Under the influence of Zhang and Li's family, Wang Haogu focused on treatise on febrile diseases, and focused on the deficiency of Yang due to the deficiency of body Qi, which became another family's theory.

Main experience

In his early years, Wang Haogu was well versed in Confucian classics and history. He was a Jinshi officer, a professor in Honshu, and also promoted internal medicine. He once studied medicine with Li Gao in Zhang Yuanyuan. He was 20 years younger than Li Gao. Later, he studied medicine with Li Gao and got his biography. Zhang Yuanyuan emphasized the syndrome differentiation of viscera, and paid attention to distinguish the deficiency and excess of cold and heat in the viscera where the lesion was located. Li Gao expounded the theory of spleen and stomach, especially the discussion of deficiency syndrome of internal injury of spleen and stomach. Wang Haogu's academic thought originated from the classics of Internal Classic and treatise on febrile diseases, and was influenced by the doctors of past dynasties, such as Wang Shuhe, Zhu humerus, Xu Shuwei, Han Zhihe, etc., especially his teacher Zhang Yuanyuan's theory of viscera disease and Li Gao's theory of spleen and stomach internal injury, which deeply influenced him. All these laid the foundation of his theory of Yin Syndrome.

work

Wang Haogu has written some books, such as a brief example of Yin Syndrome, Yilei Yuanrong, this matter is hard to know, huanglun Cuiying, Tangye Bencao and so on, among which a brief example of Yin Syndrome is his representative work. A brief example of Yin Syndrome is a monograph on Yin Syndrome. According to Wang's preface, it was completed in 1232 ad. In view of the fact that "typhoid fever is a serious disease in ancient and modern times, Yin Syndrome is one section, and it is especially quick to harm people", "Yang syndrome is easy to distinguish and easy to treat, while Yin Syndrome is difficult to distinguish and difficult to treat", the author takes the predecessors' discussion on Yin Syndrome and makes a comprehensive exposition of Yin Syndrome from the aspects of etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment in order to clarify the harm of Yin Syndrome of typhoid fever and the importance of warming yang. The book was first included in "Ji Sheng Ba Cui" by Du Sijing of the Yuan Dynasty; in the Qing Dynasty, Lu Xinyuan published "100000 volume Lou series" according to the old manuscript collected by King Qian Zun (Zeng). Chen Xiuyuan's 54 kinds of medical books and Chinese medical Dacheng are recorded respectively. Compared with the Qing version, the yuan version has more "Yin Syndrome yellow", "Yin Syndrome spot" and a medical case. According to the preface of Ma Xin in Yin Zheng Lue Yi, Wang's disciples are Huangfu, Zhang Zhuan, song Tinggui, Zhang Ke and Yi gouying. Huang Lun Cui Ying was written in 1237 A.D. this book is concise and comprehensive. It has unique views on the treatment of Huang rash and the discrimination between Huang rash and sore rash. The prescription is quite practical in clinic. Yilei Yuanrong was written in 1291 ad. since then, typhoid fever and miscellaneous diseases were divided into two branches. The more learned, the worse, the more specialized and the coarser the medical workers were. Therefore, the ancestors described the system of Zhongjing, combined with the methods of Yishui and Dongyuan, and invented the essence of the treatment of typhoid fever and miscellaneous diseases, hoping that the scholars could understand and understand it. There are 1035 prescriptions in this book, which not only focus on the use of medicine mental method of the former sages, but also have the originality of the ancient prescriptions. The first draft of Tang Ye Ben Cao was completed in 1298 A.D. and was finalized in 1308 A.D. This paper mainly expounds the mechanism, main points and processing of medicine. The pharmaceutical theories of Zhang Yuanyuan and Li Dongyuan were expounded, which reflected the achievements of pharmaceutical theories in Jin and Yuan Dynasties. It was published in 1308 a.d. by Li Gao, his teacher. It includes viscera, meridians, Qi and blood, Ying Wei, diagnosis, etiology and pathogenesis, relationship between heaven and man, treatment and so on.

Academic content

Wang Haogu regarded typhoid fever as a disease and attached great importance to the role of internal factors. He thought that whether internal injury or external factors were involved, the disease was always caused by the deficiency of healthy qi in human body. Exogenous cold pathogen, internal injury drink cold or fasting do not eat, can lead to the occurrence of internal injury Yin Syndrome. However, the severity of the disease is different, and the prognosis is different between treatable and untreatable. It all depends on the degree of deficiency and excess of healthy qi. Wang's understanding of this theory is completely consistent with the idea in Neijing that "where the evil is gathered together, the Qi will be deficient" and "the healthy qi exists inside, and the evil can't be done". What's more, in the above words, Wang also explained the pathogenesis of the three Yin Syndrome, which is closely related to the Yin already existing in the human body. It is of practical significance to analyze the pathogenesis from the perspective of constitution and emphasize the view of constitution Conghua. Wang's theory of typhoid fever emphasizes the deficiency of vital energy as the root, while Li Gao's theory of internal injury disease also emphasizes the deficiency of vital energy as the root. It can be seen that Wang's learning, inspired by Li Gaozhi's academic thought, comes down in one continuous line.

clinical application

Experience of regulating Yin Syndrome

Although the evil of cold dampness, fog and dew can cause exterior syndrome, Wang attaches great importance to the "deficiency and excess of the original Qi" and is good at using the method of strengthening the right and eliminating the evil. If you feel the evil of cold dampness, fog and dew, fever, aversion to cold, sweating, tough waist and back, uncomfortable head and neck, heavy and sleepy limbs, reduced diet, or depressed stomach, tight or slow pulse, self-made Shenshu decoction can take Atractylodes lancea, which is hard-working and warm, fragrant, and dispersive in the process of warming and dryness. It can not only dry the dampness of spleen and stomach, but also disperse the evil of wind and cold Warm and dry dampness, invigorate spleen and relieve exterior. According to the difference of the Qi of Sitian, the herbs of the main time were added, such as taiyanghanshui Sitian plus Guizhi for aftercare; yangmingzaojinsitian plus Baizhi and Cimicifuga; shaoyangxianghuositian plus Huangqin and Shengdi; taiyinshitu Sitian plus Baizhu and gaoben; shaoyinjunhuositian plus Xixin and Duhuo; jueyingfengmutian plus Chuanxiong and Fangfeng. For example, before the vernal equinox after frost fall, those who hurt fog, dew, dampness and dampness were treated with Shenshu plus Ligusticum decoction, Shenshu plus Muxiang decoction, and those who hurt cold things inside and feel wind evil and sweat outside were treated with Baizhu decoction. The above prescription can reflect Wang's characteristics of treating Yin Syndrome and external feeling, emphasizing on strengthening the spleen and dampness, and his medication reflects Wang's experience of attaching importance to ups and downs.

Characteristics of prescription preparation of traditional Chinese Medicine

In accordance with the principle of warming and tonifying, Wang regulated Yin Syndrome, strongly opposed the use of cold and cool products, and clearly emphasized: "double solution, honey tea, bath, Yin Syndrome are not available.". That is to say, he also disagrees with Article 29 of treatise on febrile diseases that "if the stomach qi is discordant and delirious, it should be less treated with tiaoweichengqi Decoction" after Yang Qi comes and goes back, and holds that "warming first and then lowering, it should not be used lightly, there is other news inside"). Therefore, in the treatment of Yin Syndrome, most of them are warm and sweet, but few are bitter and cold. There are 58 prescriptions in the book of Yin Syndrome, among which 46 prescriptions are used to warm the middle and disperse cold and break Yin and return to Yang, accounting for 79% of the total. Moreover, in most prescriptions, several warm drugs are often used together. Among them, aconite root and dried ginger were used in the majority, up to 16. There are aconite, sulfur; Chuanwu, dried ginger; aconite, sulfur, cinnamon, dried ginger and other compatibility. Its self-made prescription has the characteristics of a small amount of light taste, focusing on Invigorating the spleen and warming yang. For example, Shenshu powder is composed of Atractylodes lancea, Fangfeng, liquorice, ginger and scallion, and its dosage is three yuan. Jihan pill, which is used to treat "chronic cold of typhoid fever and cold pain of abdominal cavity", is only made of six drugs. The four ingredients of Liangjiang, Fuling, Ganjiang and fennel all have the function of warming the middle and strengthening the spleen.

Character evaluation

Wang Haogu was an important physician in the Jin and Yuan Dynasties and the backbone of Yishui school.

Influence of later generations

Under the influence of Zhang Yuanyuan's syndrome differentiation of Zang Fu organs and Li Gao's theory of spleen and stomach, Wang Haogu combined with his own clinical experience and quoted many experts' opinions to expound the syndrome differentiation and treatment of Yin Syndrome, so as to put the scattered and unorganized treatises on Yin Syndrome in the works of past dynasties into a unique theory with syndrome differentiation and treatment system. This is a great development of traditional Chinese medicine theory in the Jin and Yuan Dynasties The study of Yin Syndrome in later generations has great inspiration. Wang Haogu discussed Yin Syndrome, paid attention to the internal cause, not limited to the theory of exogenous febrile disease, put forward the theory of endogenous Yin Syndrome, and expounded the theory of Yin Syndrome Based on Taiyin internal injury and deficiency cold, which made the differentiation and treatment of Yin Syndrome develop from exogenous febrile disease to internal injury and miscellaneous diseases, greatly expanding the scope of Yin Syndrome, thus organically combining the theory of exogenous febrile disease with the theory of spleen and stomach internal injury. Yin Syndrome theory is not only the development of Zhongjing theory, but also the supplement of Dongyuan's detailed discussion on "heat in syndrome". He advocated warming and tonifying the spleen and kidney, which had a great influence on the doctors of warming and tonifying school in Ming and Qing Dynasties.
