| Objective: By analyzing the application of floating and sinking pulse in Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases,this paper provides guidance for further study of Zhongjing’s pulse theory and clinical application of pulse diagnosis and treatment.Methods: Through searching and consulting relevant literature and materials,sort out and summarize the source of Zhongjing’s pulse theory,and sum up the content of Zhongjing’s pulse theory;Sort out the discussion about the floating and sinking pulse in the past dynasties,and summarize the connection with Zhongjing’s floating and sinking pulse;To sort out the discussion of floating and sinking pulse in "Treatise on Febrile Miscellaneous Diseases",analyze the significance of clinical application of floating and sinking pulse in "Treatise on Febrile Miscellaneous Diseases",clarify the train of thought of clinical application of pulse diagnosis and treatment,explore the essence of floating and sinking pulse in "Treatise on Febrile Miscellaneous Diseases",and sum up the inspiration of Zhong Jing’s floating and sinking pulse for later generations.Results:Zhongjing often clarifies the cause,pathogenesis,location,and reality,treatment,and prognosis of the disease through the combination of floating and sinking pulses,which is the application of Zhongjing’s pulse identification method.Zhongjing’s floating and sinking veins have the characteristics of wholeness,relativity,perpetuality and constant variability,which is the application embodiment of Zhongjing’s pulse discernment thinking;Zhongjing often expresses the clinical significance of floating and sinking pulses in different diagnostic pulse sites,which is the application of Zhongjing’s multiple pulse acquisitions.The characteristics of Zhongjing’s floating and sinking veins are the most fundamental embodiment of the characteristics of Zhongjing’s veins,and it is also the embodiment of Zhongjing’s combination of pulse evidence and reference to examine the root of the disease in detail.Conclusion: "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" inherited and developed the understanding of floating and sinking pulse in Huangdi Neijing and Nanjing.Its clinical application of floating and sinking pulse and clear grasp of qi qi inspired later generations’ understanding of relevant applications of floating and sinking pulse.At the same time,it also provided objective guidance for contemporary clinical application of floating and sinking pulse to distinguish Qi Ji. |
