Abstract:
Hidden-pathogen theory is always a leading theory of febrile disease etiology from the proposal until the Ming Dynasty and it plays a critical guiding role on development and maturity of febrile disease theory. However, along with the change of times and drift of disease spectrum, this theory is facing unprecedented challenges. The gradually in-creased clinical experiences and facts have been difficult to be explained and induced using the already existed hidden-pathogen theory. Since hidden-pathogen theory has its own theoretical status and value, which cannot be lightly given up, the question of how to develop this theory in order to better reveal the pathogenesis in the guidance of diagnosis and treatment has become the focus of attention. This paper tried to proposeemotional hidden-pathogenas an example to provide a possible paradigm to develop hidden-pathogen theory and systematically expound main ideas and reasoning processes of emotional hidden-pathogen doctrine and to explore its theoretical significance and application value.
