Yellow greasy coating is more common in patients with tongue coating, but it is different due to the severity of turbidity. The tongue is red, greasy, thin and thick, or yellow or white or yellow and white; The tongue with severe turbidity and toxicity is purplish red and crimson, with yellow greasy fur or yellow greasy middle roots. Due to different zang-fu organs, the parts reflected by tongue coating are also different. If turbid toxin is blocked, the middle part of tongue is yellow and greasy. Turbid toxin blocking the liver and gallbladder has yellow and greasy tongue on both sides. The color and quality of fur changes according to the new illness period. At first, when the body fluid is not hurt, yellow greasy fur can be seen. Turbid poison hurts body fluid for a long time, and it becomes yellow moss.
Slippery pulse is common in patients with turbid and toxic pulse, especially right guan pulse. Slip number, serial slip, serial fine slip and fine slip are common in clinic. The course of disease is short, turbid and toxic, and it can be seen that the pulse is slippery or the pulse is slippery. The course of the disease is long, yin deficiency with turbid poison, and thin and slippery pulse can be seen. However, when the patient's pulse is heavy and thin, it is mostly turbid toxin blocking collaterals and blood stasis, which should not be considered as weak or cold pulse. For example, in Synopsis of the Golden Chamber, "Taiyang disease, painful joints, heavy and thin pulse, this is called dampness arthralgia". He also said: "The accumulation of Buddhism and the veins attached to bones are also accumulation." The above shows that veinlets dominate dampness and turbidity, not deficiency.
Excrements and secretions are turbid and toxic, showing that the stool is sticky and smelly, the urine is light yellow or dark yellow or strong tea-like, and the sweat is dirty and smelly.
The theoretical innovation of how to detoxify traditional Chinese medicine is the soul and core of the development of traditional Chinese medicine, and the academic theoretical innovation that keeps pace with the times is the internal driving force for traditional Chinese medicine to maintain its vitality. Turbid toxin theory discusses the influence of contemporary ecological environment and changes in people's own diet, mood and lifestyle on human health with the overall thinking mode of traditional Chinese medicine.
The theory of turbid toxin has a profound historical origin. Turbid toxin, as a pathogenic and pathological mechanism, widely exists in the process of various diseases and is an important factor in the treatment of various diseases.
The theory of turbid toxin has extensive clinical guiding significance, which is not only conducive to the correct diagnosis after syndrome differentiation and treatment, but also conducive to improving the curative effect of various clinical departments and developing various effective drugs to remove turbidity and detoxify. Therefore, the theory of turbid toxin not only has important academic significance, but also has potential social and economic value, which deserves further in-depth study.
As an academic term of traditional Chinese medicine, "turbid toxin" has been recognized by more and more experts and scholars. Under the guidance of the theory of turbid toxin, the research group established the clinical key specialty of the National Health and Family Planning Commission, the key discipline construction units in state administration of traditional chinese medicine during the 11th Five-Year Plan, the key specialty construction units in state administration of traditional chinese medicine during the 11th Five-Year Plan and the 12th Five-Year Plan, and the key laboratory of turbid toxin syndrome of chronic gastritis in state administration of traditional chinese medicine, and achieved many scientific research results.
Through previous studies, we believe that turbid toxin can cause changes in the morphological structure of cells, tissues and organs, including hypertrophy, proliferation, atrophy, metaplasia, canceration, inflammation, degeneration, apoptosis and necrosis in modern pathology. The result is to poison cells, tissues and organs, make their metabolism and function abnormal, and even fail.
In clinical practice, we have widely applied turbidity theory to the diagnosis and treatment of many diseases, such as digestive system diseases, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, nephritis, nephropathy, uremia, rheumatic immune diseases, surgical diseases, gynecological diseases, dermatology, ENT and so on. Especially for treating chronic atrophic gastritis, precancerous lesions of stomach, liver cirrhosis and ulcerative colitis.
Judging from the way of turbid toxin production and its pathogenic characteristics, turbid toxin syndrome generally exists in many precancerous lesions. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the occurrence of tumors is mostly caused by imbalance of viscera, deficiency of qi and blood, stagnation of qi and blood stasis, accumulation of phlegm and dampness, and stagnation of heat due to pathogenic toxin. However, in practice, if we treat tumors according to the general idea of qi stagnation and blood stasis and phlegm-dampness obstruction, the effect is not ideal.
According to the theory of turbid toxin, the occurrence of cancer is either "the turbidity of heaven", "the turbidity of earth" or "the turbidity of human beings", which is endogenous, damages the healthy qi, makes the spleen and stomach function out of control, leads to insufficient biochemical sources of qi and blood, turbid sources of qi and blood, imbalance of viscera and yin, stagnation of excess and deficiency, and gradually becomes a malignant disease.
The treatment of turbid toxin is to remove turbidity and detoxify, including aromatic turbidity, dampness and turbidity, and dampness and turbidity. Detoxification treatment includes clearing heat and detoxicating, promoting blood circulation and detoxicating, resolving stagnation and detoxicating, eliminating dampness and detoxicating, and fighting poison with poison. At present, the traditional Chinese medicines with anti-tumor effects screened by modern pharmacological research and clinical research are basically divided into five categories, namely, clearing away heat and toxic materials, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, resolving phlegm and resolving hard mass, promoting diuresis and eliminating dampness, and attacking poison by insects. This coincides with the prescription thought of turbid toxin theory. Turbid toxin theory opens up a new way for the diagnosis and treatment of precancerous lesions and even tumors in traditional Chinese medicine.
The theory of turbid toxin comes from clinic, and after combing, induction and summary, it rises to the theory of turbid toxin. We combine turbidity theory with western medicine experimental detection technology, and provide ideas and guide experimental design for basic medical research through clinical observation and analysis. At the same time, the research results of the laboratory are applied to clinic. Under the guidance of holistic view and dynamic view of medicine, syndrome differentiation and treatment have shown unique effects in eliminating disease symptoms, improving and reversing pathological tissues, and adjusting and restoring overall functions. On the basis of fully inheriting the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, strengthen theoretical inheritance and innovative research; Gradually form a complete and unique theoretical system of turbid toxin, and promote the academic development of traditional Chinese medicine.
