Abstract:
This paper summarized Professor ZHANG Junping's clinical experience in treating coronary heart disease (CHD) combined with hypothyroidism. It is believed that yang deficiency was the root cause of CHD complicated with hypothyroidism, and also the key pathogenesis throughout its development. Accordingly, combined with the different focuses on the lesions in the blood, pulse, heart and spirit, Professor ZHANG took warming yang as the basic rule and summarized the four methods of warming yang for syndrome differentiation and treatment. When spleen-kidney yang deficiency, disturbance of qi transformation, dysfunction of blood transportation as the pathological basis of CHD combined with hypothyroidism, the self-prescribed Butian Formula (补天方) could be used for warming yang and benefiting the kidney, thereby regulating Qi and blood; when the cold and dampness blocked the blood vessels, and turbidity-toxin generated gradually, resulting in heart vessel obstruction, the self-prescribed Huazhuo Changmai Decoction (化浊畅脉汤) could be used to warm yang and dissolve the turbidity so that to unblock the heart vessels; when the structure and function of the heart fail, edema due to yang deficiency with pericardial fluid retention, the self-prescribed Yuxin Baomai Formula (育心保脉方) could be used to warm yang and excret water, and protect the heart; when yang deficiency led to emotional and mental stagnation, and the heart impairment aggravated emotional and mental disorders, which resulted in emotional and mental abnormalities, the self-prescribed Jieyu Anshen Decoction (解郁安神汤) could be used to relieve emotional and mental stagnation, and calm mind.
