A Literature Study On The Guiding Significance Of The Rule Of Syndrome Differentiation And Treatment In The Later Period Of The Synopsis Of The Golden Chamber

Arthralgia Disease, refers to the disease characterized with muscular pain,swelling and numbness and even inhibited movement in some serious cases at the joints of limbs and body due to the stagnation of Qi-blood circulation caused by the impeded meridian as a result of pathogenic factors such as wind, chill, dampness and heat. Based on the clinical manifestation of arthralgia disease, Synopsis of Golden Chamber made a detailed discussion on its pathogeny, pathogenesis, diseased location and treatment and so on in many writings, and established many proved recipe for treating it, which laid a firm foundation for the medical practitioners of later generation to study the law of syndrome and therapeutic principles of arthralgia disease.Objective : To make a comparison and analysis on the law of syndrome and therapeutic principles of arthralgia disease stated in Synopsis of Golden Chamber and the counterpart established by the medical practitioners of later generations in order to conclude the correlation between them and confirm the guiding role of the law of syndrome and therapeutic principles of arthralgia disease stated in Synopsis of Golden Chamber for the development of the law of syndrome and therapeutic principles of arthralgia disease in the later generations through the method of philological research on the basis of summary of the law of syndrome and therapeutic principles of arthralgia disease stated in Synopsis of Golden Chamber and the counterpart established by the medical practitioners of later generations.Methods:Through collecting, arranging and investigating the relevant literatures,the law of syndrome and therapeutic principles of arthralgia disease stated in Synopsis of Golden Chamber had been arranged to obtain the main features of syndrome and therapeutic principles of arthralgia disease in terms of its pathogeny, pathogenesis,diseased location and treatment, and then, an analysis and conclusion of the law of syndrome and therapeutic principles of arthralgia disease established by the medical practitioners of later generations had been conducted in order to study the situation ofinheritance and the consequent development of the law of syndrome and therapeutic principles of arthralgia disease by the medical practitioners of later generations,finally, through comparison,the results manifest the guiding significance of Synopsis of Golden Chamber to the regularity of diagnosis and treatment of arthralgia disease for practitioners of later generations.Results:Synopsis of Golden Chamber is of an important directive significance for the medical practitioners of later generations to study the law of syndrome and therapeutic principles of arthralgia disease. It is believed that, the law of syndrome and therapeutic principles of arthralgia disease stated in Synopsis of Golden Chamber included the etiology and pathogenesis, therapeutic principle and method, prescription and drug for treating arthralgia disease, which laid a foundation for the law of syndrome and therapeutic principles of arthralgia disease. The medical practitioners of later generations largely inherited the ideology of the law of syndrome and therapeutic principles of arthralgia disease stated in Synopsis of Golden Chamber for the diagnosis and treatment of arthralgia disease, and supplemented it to cover the unfinished part, however, both the discussion on etiology and pathogenesis of arthralgia disease from the perspective of theory of spleen insufficiency and Yin deficiency and the one on therapeutic principle and method of it from the perspective of method of insects searching and principle of scraping and syndrome-oriented treatment were closely correlated with the law of syndrome and therapeutic principles of arthralgia disease stated in Synopsis of Golden Chamber.Conclusion:Synopsis of Golden Chamber is of a great directive significance to the law of syndrome and therapeutic principles of arthralgia disease established by the medical practitioners in later generations in terms of arthralgia disease’s etiology and pathogenesis, therapeutic principle and method, prognostic recuperating and other aspects, it laid a foundation for the law of syndrome and therapeutic principles of arthralgia disease of traditional Chinese medicine.
