Exploration on the essential law of disease definition model based on traditional Chinese medicine internal medicine
Definition is an important work to clarify concepts and promote communication.It also reflects people's understanding of things.The definition model of diseases in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)internal medicine adopts the method of'genus plus species difference'in logic.In this model,the difference of main symptoms is the only difference or main difference between different diseases,which contradicts the understanding of'disease','syndrome'and'symptom'in TCM.Through the analysis of the disease definition mode of TCM internal medicine,it can be concluded that the main symptoms,causes,pathogenesis and syndromes cannot be the essential attributes of diseases to distinguish different diseases.TCM should deepen the understanding of diseases,excavate the essential attributes of diseases,and complete the paradigm transformation of the definition model.
