Abstract:
The essence of asymptomatic syndrome differenciation is that the disease is in a special stage or state. To perform traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） diagnosis when there was no symptoms for differentiation is a key scientific issue in current TCM diagnosis and treatment. The reasons include limitations in doctor-patient behaviors and relationships， as well as limitations in cognitive thinking. To address such situations， the following strategies can be adopted from a thinking perspective，i.e. grasping the occurrence and development of diseases based on a holistic concept， using dialectical thinking to summarize the laws of diseases， integrating clinical practice with experiential thinking， and introducing new thinking modes through interdisciplinary collaboration. These strategies help TCM practitioners make accurate diagnoses in the absence of obvious symptoms， thereby providing better medical services for patients.
