Abstract:
This paper summarized professor JIA Hongxiao's experience in treating cognitive impairments in schizophrenia patients upon five spirits stored in corresponding viscera theory. By elucidating the cognitive psychological connotation of the five spirits stored in corresponding viscera theory, it is proposed that the cognitive impairment of schizophrenia should be differentiated and treated based on the symptom characteristics of different cognitive domain impairments in schizophrenia. The key pathogenesis of impairments to cognitive domains such as information processing speed, executive control ability and will is kidney deficiency, liver hyperactivity, and heart spirit restlessness, for which the treatment is to boost the kidney and calm the liver, nourish the heart and calm the mind, using Shizhen Anshen Formula (石珍安神方) modifications. The main pathogenesis of memory and attention cognitive impairment is spleen-kidney depletion and lung corporeal soul failing to descend, for which it is suggested to fortify the spleen and supplement kidney, boost lung and direct qi downward using Jianpi Bushen Formula (健脾补肾方) modifications.
