Abstract:
Primary hypotension is a common and frequently occurring blood vessel disease,characterized by insidious onset,lingering condition,complex etiology,and diverse symptoms.Its pathogenesis is primarily characterized by deficiency,and its onset involves multiple zang-fu organs.The"yang transforming qi and yin shaping up body"theory is derived from the Huangdi Neijing.This theory summarizes the fundamental laws of the movement and changes in yin and yang.From this perspective,the paper hypothesizes that the basic pathogenesis of primary hypotension stems from an insufficiency of yang in transforming qi and a malfunction of yin in shaping up body.The essence of the condition lies in an overall yang deficiency that fails to provide warmth and transformation,coupled with qi deficiency,which cannot control and regulate bodily functions.This leads to poor blood circulation and inadequate protection,causing yin to malfunction in forming the physical components of the body.As a result,normal physiological functions of the zang-fu organs are disrupted,the production of beneficial physiological substances is obstructed,and metabolic waste products accumulate.The primary therapeutic approach should be focused on tonifying qi and ascending yang;tonifying qi will provide the impetus for blood circulation,whereas ascending yang will facilitate yang transformation qi.The zang-fu organs should also be protected and nourished to ameliorate the internal environment of yang deficiency and yin excess,as well as to eliminate pathological product accumulation to dredge the channels of blood circulation.Using the"yang transforming qi and yin shaping up the body"theory to guide the treatment of primary hypotension can help deepen the understanding of the pathogenesis of this disease and broaden the clinical diagnosis and treatment strategies.
