The scientific interpretation of the theory of medicinal properties of TCM is a research hotspot in the modernization of TCM. It is of great value to clarify the property and degree of cold and heat in Chinese materia medica for guiding clinical precise medication. In recent years, the research on the cold and heat properties of Chinese materia medica has been carried out at the animal, cell and molecular levels. Based on the objective material basis of medicinal properties, from the perspective of biological effects such as thermodynamics and multiomics; with the help of infrared thermal imaging and other technologies for analysis; forming a variety of research models such as "property-structure relationship". Related research has developed from a single material component or index to a new model that tends to integrate multi-source information and multi-dimensional data. However, how to deal with the problems of large sample size, strong redundancy, high heterogeneity, and how to integrate multi-dimensional information are still research difficulties. With its powerful computing and learning ability, machine learning can show good discrimination and prediction ability in the study of cold and hot properties of Chinese materia medica, and play an important role in the study of cold and hot properties of Chinese materia medica. At present, the most widely used algorithms are linear discriminant analysis, Logistic discriminant analysis, support vector machine, decision tree, random forest and so on. The data dimension of the existing research needs to be enriched, the algorithm has room for further optimization, and a more detailed discriminant model of cold and hot properties of Chinese materia medica needs to be established.

Dong qi,referring to beating beside the navel,was proposed for the first time by Nan Jing."Beating above the navel""beating below the navel",and"beating below the heart"in Shanghan Lun all belong to the category of Dong qi.The pathogenesis of Dong qi can be learned from Shanghan Lun.Yang deficiency of the heart,spleen,and kidney,with qi failing to transform body fluids,results in fluid retention.Fluid retention is the key etiological factor of Dong qi.Although there is an exterior pattern with Dong qi,the exterior-releasing and purgative method cannot be used for treatment,or the patient will be impaired of yang and exhausted of yin,fluid circulation will be disturbed,and so on.Reinforcing yang qi to drain water retention is the treatment principle of Dong qi.The coupled medicines of Fuling and Guizhi were commonly used by ZHANG Zhongjing to treat Dong qi.This reflects the treatment principle of strengthening the spleen and warming yang for transforming qi to circulate body fluids.ZHANG Bi,a physician from the Yuan Dynasty who learned from ZHANG Zhongjing,thought that the treatment of Dong qi was based on the method of cultivating earth to restrain water and taking into account the ascending,descending,entering,and exiting of qi of the liver,heart,lung,and kidney while tonifying the spleen,and then created Baoming Siqi Powder(Zhiqiao,Fuling,Fangkui,and Qianhu Powder)for the treatment of Dong qi,which is of great significance to the clinic.

The basic diagnostic and treatment principles of traditional Chinese medicine are the pattern-differentiation-deduced pathogenesis and treatment based on examination of the pathogenesis.Shanghan Lun established a system of pattern differentiation of six meridians,systematically summarized the evolution laws of exogenous febrile disease,and discussed miscellaneous diseases as exogenous diseases.It contains 112 classic formulas and advocates that"those whose disease corresponds to the formulas should take them accordingly",combining disease differentiation and pattern differentiation,containing not only the knowledge of treatment based on pattern identification,but also the profundity of pattern-differentiation-deduced pathogenesis.Based on the original meaning of"pathogenesis",from the three angles of"subtle meaning","core meaning",and"appropriate meaning",this paper exemplifies the concept of pattern differentiation for six meridians in Shanghan Lun,analyzes the relationship and connotation of formula patterns of classical formulas in Shanghan Lun by"taking pattern with formulas",and explores the concept of pattern-differentiation-deduced pathogenesis in Shanghan Lun.This paper emphasizes that during the clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine,it is important(i)to deduce the pathogenesis based on pattern differentiation,understand symptoms upon first onset,and deduce the pathogenesis before symptoms appear,thereby treating the disease at an early stage;(ii)to identify the most important concepts,solve complications with simple method,discern the core of the disease,and treat the entire body;and(iii)to optimize timing,act quickly,take advantage of opportunities,accept outcomes,and provide judicious guidance to patients.This paper serves to interpret Shanghan Lun based on pattern-differentiation-deduced pathological mechanism and provides ideas and inspiration for applying the theory of Shanghan Lun to guide clinical practice.

Humans are born under the nourishment of heaven and earth qi.The physiological and pathological functions of the human body are influenced by the alternation of cold and heat in the four seasons.Allergic diseases often occur or worsen during seasonal transitions,corresponding to the theory of the spleen dominating the end of the four seasons in traditional Chinese medicine.Splenic dysfunction disrupts the body's internal clock during seasonal transitions,making it unable to adapt to external climate changes,causing the onset or exacerbation of specific allergic symptoms.The theory of"the spleen serves as the guard"originated from Huangdi Neijing,which is a succinct summary of the role of the spleen in defending the body against external pathogens.The theory emphasizes that the spleen transports drinks and foods internally to supplement healthy qi,and regulates defensive qi externally to protect the whole body.This theory is closely linked to the seasonal changes in immune function,thereby influencing the seasonal onset of allergic diseases.This paper explores the roles of the spleen in time-based self-regulation and immune defense against seasonal allergic diseases according to the theory of"spleen serves as the grard."The dysfunction of this protective mechanism,which leads to disharmony in nutritive qi and defensive qi,internal production of phlegm-dampness,and zang-fu organs malnutrition,are the key factors causing recurrent and persistent allergic diseases during seasonal transitions.This study provides insights for elucidating the mechanisms behind seasonal allergic disease outbreaks and their prevention.
