Professor Deng attaches great importance to the study of various theories and is good at learning from the strengths of various schools. It also emphasizes the development of various schools in clinical verification, forming a clinical style that attaches importance to regulating the spleen and stomach; Attach importance to the inheritance and development of various theories, so as to obtain innovative theoretical theories; Pay attention to the combination of learning and application, use innovative theories to guide the prevention and treatment of major and difficult diseases, and make major breakthroughs.
Professor Deng attaches great importance to the study of various theories, and often says that the four books are the "roots" of TCM, and the "branches" of TCM are the theories after Zhongjing. Each dynasty has its representative figures and works, which are the treasures of traditional Chinese medicine. To improve the theoretical level of traditional Chinese medicine, we need to read well-known medical records, various theories and masterpieces, learn from the strengths of various schools and enrich ourselves.
Professor Deng studied the classic works of traditional Chinese medicine as early as 1930s, and extensively studied various theories on this basis. He once said: "The disciplines of various theories are well established. I have been a teacher of this subject, and I have made a preliminary discussion on some famous theories and verified them in clinic. The benefits in this regard are relatively large. "
It is pointed out that after Zhongjing, Zhang Xichun, especially Li Dongyuan, had a great influence on him. Professor Deng is good at learning other people's theories. Ruzai
When studying the theory of spleen and stomach, he combed the expositions of famous scholars in past dynasties and thought that the theory of spleen and stomach was developed on the basis of Neijing. Synopsis of the Golden Chamber puts forward the important arguments that "the spleen flourishes at four seasons and is not affected by evil" and "the liver sees diseases but originates in the spleen". The representative work of spleen and stomach theory is the first work in Yuan Dynasty, which not only discusses the academic views of Ye and Zhang. It is put forward that "we can have a complete understanding of spleen and stomach theory by concentrating relevant theories and learning from each other's strengths."
Professor Deng attaches great importance to various theoretical theories and emphasizes the development of various theories in clinical verification. "Chinese medicine research must be combined with clinic, and it is also important to combine with various theories for thousands of years. After more than 70 years of clinical practice, he is good at applying the research results of various theories to clinical practice, thus carrying forward various theories. After in-depth study on the theory of spleen and stomach, he showed a clinical style of paying attention to regulating the spleen and stomach, especially strengthening the spleen and replenishing qi, which became his distinctive style in clinical practice. 1999 wrote the Clinical Conference on Li Dongyuan Theory, claiming that its treatment of coronary heart disease, chronic pyelonephritis, myasthenia gravis, thrombocytopenic purpura, amenorrhea, chronic colitis, uterine prolapse, gastroptosis, inguinal hernia and impotence were all influenced by Li Dongyuan's spleen-stomach theory.
The treatment of coronary heart disease "focuses on invigorating qi and resolving phlegm" is a general method, which is beneficial to the recovery of heart yang when used in conjunction with qi-invigorating drugs. Therefore, Wendan decoction is often used to treat heart-yang deficiency. "Wendan Decoction" was popularized by colleagues as "Deng Wendan Decoction" after ginseng was added. In the prescription, Codonopsis pilosula is used to replenish qi and strengthen the body resistance, Salvia miltiorrhiza is used to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and Wendan decoction is used to eliminate phlegm and replenish qi and achieve qi. Self-made Liuwei Mangan Drink (Radix Codonopsis, Poria, Atractylodis Rhizoma, Glycyrrhrizae Radix. And leaves of wampee are used for treating chronic hepatitis. According to the synopsis of the golden chamber, "If the husband treats the disease before it occurs, he should know that the liver transports the spleen first and strengthen the spleen", Professor Deng drew up the general principle of strengthening the spleen and benefiting qi, supporting the soil and restraining the wood. This prescription uses Sijunzi decoction to strengthen the spleen and tonify the yang to "strengthen the spleen"; Huangpi leaves soothe the liver and detoxify, and the qi is turbid; Sichuan arthralgia enters the liver and stomach meridians, raising the clear and lowering the turbid, and removing the damp and turbid spleen soil.
Zhenfeng decoction is a prescription for the treatment of chronic pyelonephritis, that is, Lysimachia edulis, Lysimachia microphylla combined with Sijunzi decoction, plus Taxilli and Stemona. The meaning of cube is based on the theory of spleen and stomach. For example, Zhang Zhongjing said that "the spleen flourishes in four seasons and is not harmed by evil spirits", and Li Dongyuan said that "all diseases of the spleen and stomach are caused by internal injuries". This disease is not only a syndrome with less evil but more deficiency. Strengthening the spleen is an important measure to strengthen the body resistance and eliminate evil spirits. Therefore, Sijunzi decoction is used to strengthen the spleen and stomach and mobilize the body's disease resistance.
Professor Deng believes that to carry out the research of TCM, we should focus on inheriting the theoretical essence of TCM, extracting its scientific core, and then processing and improving it to make it a theory that originates from and is higher than this theory, that is, based on inheritance and focusing on improvement.
He spoke highly of the theories of doctors, especially the theory of qi and blood and its representative prescriptions. It is pointed out that Wang's treatment of qi and blood is the key to the treatment of paranoia, which actually comes from the theory of qi and blood in Neijing. Blood and benefit, qi and benefit. If blood is solid, it should be determined, that is, it should be guided to flow downward like a river; Those with qi deficiency should take it, which is the basis for Wang to reuse Astragalus membranaceus. At the same time, he also absorbed the experience of doctors such as Ye and Ye in the diagnosis and treatment of phlegm and blood stasis, and applied it in clinic. "Guangdong is located in the south with low humidity, and it is easy to get wet and produce phlegm, so it is most common to have insufficient heart yang and excessive phlegm." "Clinically, patients with coronary heart disease are generally characterized by heart-yang deficiency and phlegm turbidity, while those with heart-yang deficiency (yin) and blood stasis or phlegm and blood stasis are more common in the middle and late stage or palpitation infarction." The basic pathogenesis of coronary heart disease can be summarized as follows: excess and deficiency mixed, phlegm and blood stasis related. On this basis, the relationship between "phlegm" and "blood stasis" is further explained: both phlegm and blood stasis are pathological changes of body fluid, phlegm is the early stage of blood stasis, and blood stasis is the further development of phlegm, which often harms each other. Based on this, the academic argument that "Qi and blood are related to phlegm and blood stasis" is put forward. The theory of "Qi and blood are related to phlegm and blood stasis" is a theoretical theory innovated by Professor Deng on the basis of studying, teaching and other experts and combining with clinical practice, which embodies the inheritance and development of various theories.
Professor Deng pays attention to theory and clinic, emphasizes the combination of learning and application, and practices the principle of combining theory with practice. Someone once said: "The relationship between the five internal organs does not come from the interaction of the five elements in the study, but from the long-term clinical practice of Chinese medicine." It can be seen that the sublimation of theory can not be separated from clinical practice.
Professor Deng's five zang-organs theory is a theoretical theory based on clinical practice, which integrates the academic essence of past dynasties and provides a thinking mode for clinical diagnosis and treatment of traditional Chinese medicine, especially for the prevention and treatment of modern major and difficult diseases. For example, in early research, Professor Deng was guided by Dongyuan Spleen and Stomach Theory. With the accumulation of clinical practice and further research on the theory of five zang-organs, the theory of five zang-organs is gradually applied to guide the diagnosis and treatment of myasthenia gravis. The pathogenesis of myasthenia gravis is "spleen and stomach weakness, and five zang-organs are related". Spleen and stomach deficiency and cold comes from Gao Li's Theory of Spleen and Stomach Deficiency and Cold: "Both spleen and stomach are damaged, which is the true qi and vitality, and promotes life." This language is an understanding of the essence of myasthenia gravis, and the pathogenesis of myasthenia gravis always takes this as the central link, which runs through the whole process of the disease and is the focus of syndrome differentiation and treatment. The correlation between five zang-organs is a theory based on the clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine, and it is also a theoretical summary of complex clinical phenomena by famous old Chinese medicine practitioners.
Professor Deng's use of astragalus is exactly the same. As Professor Deng himself said: "The key research topic I presided over during the Seventh Five-Year Plan period was' treatment based on syndrome differentiation and experimental study of myasthenia gravis'. In the treatment of this disease, I conducted research under the guidance of Li Dongyuan's theory of spleen and stomach (spleen governs muscles). In the treatment, I studied Wang Qingren's theory and reused Astragalus. " From this point of view, Professor Deng's clinical success is the result of his integration with other schools, and also the result of his exerting the academic experience of his predecessors. Just as he summed up Li Dongyuan's successful experience, he put forward the traditional research method: inheriting the predecessors' theory-practical theory-constantly improving it-creating new theories.
