Exploring the Diagnosis and Treatment Rules of Cholera in the Formulary from the Heart of Medicine
Tanba Yasuyori's Formulary from the Heart of Medicine is the most comprehensive summary from the initial recording of cholera diagnosis and treatment in Treatise on Cold Damage up until before the Song Dynasty.The author believes that in Formulary from the Heart of Medicine,cholera is characterized primarily by vomiting and diarrhea,lacking contagiousness.The causes of the disease are attributed to external exposure to wind-cold and internal damage from diet.The syndromes are categorized into disharmony of the spleen and stomach,yin defi-ciency with internal dryness,and impending loss of yang qi.Treatments include warming the center to dispel cold,nourishing yin to regulate yang,and restoring yang to counteract collapse,among other internal therapies.Addition-ally,it includes external treatments,moxibustion,and suggestive therapies that are easy to implement.The under-standing of the etiology and pathogenesis of cholera in Formulary from the Heart of Medicine,along with the compi-lation and summarization of various therapeutic methods and prescriptions,holds guiding significance for modern clinical treatment of acute diarrhea diseases and the infectious disease cholera.
