A, "pulse sutra" and "pulse sutra" book * * * ten volumes, ninety-seven articles, compiled by Wang Shuhe in the Western Jin Dynasty. This is the first extant work on pulse science in the medical history of China, and it is a summary of China's knowledge of pulse science before the 3rd century A.D. At the beginning of the book "Pulse Classic", it is pointed out that "pulse science is subtle, but its body is difficult to argue" and "the mind is easy to understand". This book is written and summarized for these difficulties. Although Pulse Classic is a book that synthesizes the achievements of the previous generation of pulse science, it has a very important position in the history of medical development in China and has great influence at home and abroad because of its concise and concentrated length and easy to learn and understand. For example, the imperial doctors in the Tang Dynasty took it as a compulsory course, and the medical education in ancient Japan also imitated the Tang system, and of course it was no exception. After the book was written, it spread to China and Tibet, which had a great influence on Tibetan medicine related disciplines. From here, China's pulse science was introduced into Indian and Arab countries, which also influenced the development of pulse science in Western Europe. For example, in the book China's Scientific Treasure in Ilhan, an encyclopedia of Persian medicine written by La A Hamdan of ancient Persia (1247 ~ 13 18), there is Wang Shuhe's name, and the content of pulse science is the same as "The Scientific Treasure of Ilhan". Avicenna (980 ~ 1037), a medieval Arab medical sage, also had similar contents of pulse science, which shows that Pulse Classic has a far-reaching influence in the history of Chinese and foreign medical development. Old Tang Shu contains two volumes of Pulse Sutra, but by the early Song Dynasty, this book was on the verge of being lost. Song Linyi and others found this book and deleted it when correcting the medical book. The earliest extant edition is the carved edition of Tian Li Sannian Guangqin Bookstore. From Ming and Qing dynasties to modern times, there were dozens of kinds of block printing and typesetting. Among them, the Qingshou Shange series is more influential. After the founding of New China, it was published by Commercial Press, People's Health Publishing House, Shanghai Health Publishing House and Shanghai Science and Technology Publishing House. Second, the full name of acupuncture A&B sutra is sometimes called Huangdi A&B Sutra (Sui Shu Jingji Zhi) and Huangdi Sanjing (Tang Xin Shu, Literature and Art Zhi). ), now it is generally called acupuncture A&B classic. The number of volumes contained in each book is different, and the twelve volumes described in the preface are mostly taken from this book. This edition of Acupuncture A-B Classic has a total of 12 volumes and 128 articles, and its content is to extract the essence of relevant parts of Su Wen and Jing Cheng (that is, acupuncture treatment of Lingshu and Tang Ming) and rearrange them. Volumes 1 to 6 describe the physiological functions of the human body in turn, including the relationship between the five internal organs, Wei Ying's qi and blood, spirit and soul, essence and body fluid, and the functions of the five senses and internal organs of the limbs. Secondly, the circulation route, bone degree and intestine degree of human meridian system, such as meridians, tendons, intestines and stomach, are affected; Thirdly, human body acupoints, according to human body parts, describe their positions and indications. The book describes 348 Shu points (including 49 single points; 299 double points) instead of 365 points, these points are arranged according to the head, face, neck, chest, abdomen, arms, thighs and other parts; It is easy to find. Each acupoint has the depth of acupuncture and the intensity of moxibustion. The diagnosis method is expounded again, and the content of pulse diagnosis is emphatically introduced. Especially the three nines; Then, it introduces acupoints and taboos, including forbidden acupoints; Finally, based on the theory of yin-yang and five elements, some pathological and physiological problems are introduced and explained. The clinical part is also six volumes, which introduces the acupuncture treatment of diseases such as internal medicine (including typhoid fever, apoplexy and miscellaneous diseases), ENT, gynecology and pediatrics in turn, including 43 articles in internal medicine, including diseases such as exogenous six evils, internal injuries, internal organs and five senses of meridians. There are three articles in surgery, mainly discussing carbuncle, as for gynecology and pediatrics. The completion of acupuncture classics A and B greatly promoted the development of acupuncture in China. In the 6th to 8th centuries, teaching in China, Korea and Japan was stipulated as a compulsory course for teaching students. The important works of acupuncture in Song, Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties are basically based on this book. There has been an English translation of this book abroad for a long time, which also has an important influence on the development of acupuncture abroad. Third, the book "Elbow Emergency" was originally named "Save the pawn after Elbow", with a total of three volumes, written by Ge Hong in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. This edition of elbow backup first-aid prescription consists of eight volumes, the contents of which are mainly simple and convenient treatments for some common diseases, including oral prescriptions, external use, massage, moxibustion, bonesetting and other very practical contents. Although the title of this book is "Elbow Queen", it contains a lot of valuable medical historical materials and practical prescriptions and methods. There are many important inventions and discoveries in the history of medicine, which have important enlightenment to today's medical practice. The "abscess" he described, smallpox, was introduced from outside, not inherent in China, and it has important medical history value. The book also mentions various infectious diseases, such as shooting workers, sand lice, horse gangrene and so on. Critics believe that the so-called shooting workers is a description of a schistosomiasis. Sand lice describe tsutsugamushi disease, and some people think it is the process of schistosomiasis. More valuable, the book also points out that this sand louse enters the body. If you pick a bug with a needle, just like a scab, you can only see the movement by exposing the light with your claws. This can prove that the sarcophagus was known at that time, and it is very suitable to compare the sarcophagus with its size and detection method. In a word, the book Elbow Backup Emergency Prescription describes several ancient infectious diseases in detail and occupies an important position in the history of infectious diseases in the world. There is a section in Elbow Emergency Prescription on the treatment of "dog biting poison". First of all, the book recognizes the seriousness of dog bites, and points out its potential and course of disease. There are about 20 methods to treat rabies, among which the method of "biting the dog to death and taking brain medicine will not recur" is valuable in that it uses the brain tissue of rabies patients to apply wounds and prevent the onset of rabies, which is a budding idea of immunotherapy. Rabies virus is a kind of nerve-friendly virus, which breeds in rabies brain tissue. Using this tissue to treat rabies, if it is put forward under the influence of the idea of "fighting poison with poison", is also in line with the basic principles of modern immunotherapy. Although Elbow Emergency Prescription is a simple and easy-to-obtain treatment method, it seems that this book and its therapeutic ideas are not in harmony with the idea of "treating according to syndrome differentiation" that has always been regarded as orthodox, which makes some "orthodox" physicians think that it is not important or even worth mentioning and cannot be elegant. However, it is these simple and accessible treatments and prescriptions that contain precious essence and deserve attention. If Artemisia annua is used to treat malaria, it is a valuable conclusion accumulated from long-term experience to "dye it with two liters of water and take it by wringing juice". Modern research has proved that Artemisia annua contains artemisinin with obvious antimalarial effect, which is a heat-labile chemical component. Therefore, although Chinese medicine generally uses decoction, Ge Hong emphasizes taking its juice raw. The separation of artemisinin led to an important discovery in the history of modern antimalarial drugs (research on antimalarial effect of Artemisia annua, selected papers of Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine for 30 years, Ancient Chinese Medicine Publishing House, 1985). Another example is the description of foot weakness in the book, which can be considered as the earliest history of beriberi, especially the description of heart beriberi, and adding enough vitamin B to treat beriberi. Fourthly, the original work of Bielu of Famous Doctors was lost earlier, but its related contents can still be seen in later editions of Daguan Materia Medica and Zhenghe Materia Medica. Tao Hongjing's Notes on Materia Medica, 365 of which were recorded by Tao Hongjing from the Collection of Famous Doctors. There should be more than 730 kinds of drugs in the original book A Bie Lu, a famous doctor, because this number was selected by Tao Hongjing when he compiled it into two independent works, and some drugs that were subjectively considered unnecessary at that time might be abandoned. Judging from the classification method of drugs, it is still the three-product classification in materia medica, that is, according to the therapeutic effect of drugs, they are roughly divided into three categories, and under each category, they are roughly divided into plants, minerals, animals and other drugs. For each drug, this book has its proper name, taste, indication, alias (or name), usage, dosage, dosage form, collection and processing method of origin, and seven emotions and six evils. This is basically the same as the Classic of Materia Medica. In A Bie Lu, a famous doctor, the prescription has attached some medicinal materials, such as "honeycomb, loose hair and snakeskin are burned together, and the wine is taken in square inches." The next day, all kinds of malignant gangrene, bone carbuncle healed, rooted in viscera, swollen in calendar, and all kinds of toxins were poor. This is the earliest formula in materia medica. In addition, some indications of drugs contained in Bielu, a famous doctor, have exceeded those contained in Materia Medica, such as cinnamon sweating and Stemona stopping cough. These are not available in the Classic, so this book has important practical value for studying the materia medica of the Han, Wei and Six Dynasties. 5. The Compendium of Materia Medica written by Liang Tao Hongjing is compiled from 365 kinds of Shennong Materia Medica and 730 kinds of * *, which is also a great achievement in the development history of materia medica in this period. There are two kinds of remnant volumes of Notes on Materia Medica, one is unearthed from Dunhuang Grottoes, and the other is unearthed from Turpan. Dunhuang manuscript has only one volume, which is the "preface" part. The original scroll is17m long and written on both sides. 1908, when Japanese giant Ruichao and Ji Chuan Koichiro were exploring in Central Asia, they were ordered by Ryugu Guangrui to take them to Japan from Dunhuang. There are a few other documents on the front and back of this volume, and there are 720 lines of Notes on Materia Medica on the back, but the front is missing. According to the last two lines of Wei Zhi, Lin Lu wrote a volume of Materia Medica in Du Yu on September 11th, the sixth year of Kaiyuan. Luo Zhenyu thinks that this passage is different from the original calligraphy, and it should be a work of the Six Dynasties. 1955 qunlian publishing house has a photocopy of this remnant volume. The fragments unearthed in Turpan are 28.5×27 cm, and only the full text of swallow excrement and mouse excrement, the notes on the second half of dolphin eggs and the foreword of mole (mouse spring) should be part of the contents of veterinary drugs in Notes on Materia Medica. These two things are one at Ryoku University in Japan (one at London Museum in England) and the other at Prussia College in Germany. Six, "Liu Ghost Legacy" and "Liu Ghost Legacy" are said to be surgical monographs left by Liu at the end of the Jin Dynasty when he accidentally met "Fu Huang Ghost" in the suburbs of Danyang, also known as "Immortal Legacy". According to Sui Shu Jing Ji Zhi, there are ten volumes in this book, but only five volumes are left in this book. Later, it was passed on to Gong Qingxuan of the Northern Qi Dynasty by Liu's descendants, and the original book You Gang Ju Fang edited by Gong Qingxuan became this edition of Liu's Ghost House. With regard to the understanding of surgical gangrene, after the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the wind of serving stones became more and more popular, and the incidence of gangrene increased greatly. Objectively, it is required to improve the understanding and treatment of gangrene. It was in this period that Ghost Legacy Fang appeared, which was basically a monograph on gangrene syndrome. In addition, it also involves the treatment of gold sores, blood stasis and trauma, including stopping pain and bleeding, taking out arrows, etc. The book contains 140 prescriptions, including 34 prescriptions for treating golden sores and injuries. The dialectical theory and treatment of carbuncle are particularly detailed, which can be called the earliest monograph on carbuncle and golden sore in China. The book clearly distinguishes carbuncle and gangrene from the aspects of pathogenesis and symptoms, and the distinction between carbuncle and gangrene has been very detailed. In addition to distinguishing whether it is suppurative or not, it also points out the relationship between the location of the disease and the prognosis, indicating that the prognosis of systemic infection caused by severe carbuncle is serious. The treatment of superficial syndrome of carbuncle poisoning is discussed in detail in Ghost Legacy Prescription. It gives dialectical treatment according to the different conditions of carbuncle, and puts forward a variety of detoxification treatments. For stalactite poisoning, the book uses "the blood on the cock's elbow is combined and the iron powder soup is taken in a tea bowl". Another example is red sand hair, which is made of "black lead, astragalus root, divaricate Saposhnikovia root and Long Fu liver in half, with one liter of water and half a teacup." Liu's "Ghost Legacy Prescription" represents the development level of surgery in the Southern and Northern Dynasties in China. The earliest extant edition of this book is the Song Dynasty engraving collected by Beijing Library, and two pages have been unearthed in Turpan, Xinjiang. There were also some engravings in the Qing Dynasty, and People's Guardian Publishing House published a Song Dynasty engraving of 1956. Seven, "Xiao Fangfang" and "Xiao Fangfang", also known as "Through Fang Xiaofang", are important works in this period. Author Chen, lost his life. According to scholars' research, it was written between the Southern Dynasties, the Song Dynasty and the Qi Dynasty in the second half of the fifth century. The specific content of Xiao Pian Fang was lost in Song Dynasty. 1985 The incomplete volumes of this book, including the preface, the general catalogue and the first volume, were found from the medical department of the book classification catalogue of the Japanese Respect Pavilion Library, which greatly strengthened the possibility of restoring the whole picture of Xiaoyao San. According to the general catalogue, the book * * * consists of twelve volumes, except for the orderly articles at the beginning, the bibliography of the book and the daily records of the book. The contents are as follows: The first volume includes drug combination methods, 27 prescriptions for regulating triple energizer and 8 prescriptions for treating thoracic obstruction, the second to fifth volumes are prescriptions for treating various miscellaneous diseases, the sixth volume is prescriptions for treating typhoid fever, and the seventh and eighth volumes are prescriptions for treating gynecological diseases and teenagers. Xiao Pian Fang is rich in content, which can be described as a comprehensive encyclopedia before the Tang Dynasty. It had considerable influence at that time and was regarded as a classic with the same meaning as Treatise on Febrile Diseases. It is also a guide book for a department. The so-called "children who begin to learn to treat diseases should also learn this" sketch "as an introduction." Because of this, before the book was circulated, it had a great influence, and the Ministry of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Tang Dynasty stipulated that the small folk prescription was a course of psychology for students. Later, he followed the Japanese Dabao method and style of the Tang Dynasty, and attached great importance to this book as a teaching material, requiring a study time of up to 300 days. There are many original treatment methods in the lost articles quoted in Qian Jin Fang, Wai Tai Mi Ji and Yi Xin Fang. For example, a simple and scientific method to judge whether there is poisonous gas in well burial, which is contained in Volume 10 of Wai Tai, is an effective measure to prevent poisoning. Another example is the "self-healing prescription" cited in Yi Xin Fang, whose method is extremely detailed, which is developed compared with that described in Zhang Zhongjing's Summary of the Present Room. Xiaopian Fang has been lost since the end of Song Dynasty, and its lost articles are scattered in later addenda, such as Elbow's Emergency Prescription, Thousand Daughters, The Secret of Foreign Taiwan, On the Causes of Various Diseases, etc. In addition, there are some lost articles in Japanese Medicine Heart Prescription and North Korea's East Medical Collection. The remnants of this book were found in Japan in modern times. The existing compilation was published by Tianjin Science and Technology Publishing House with the number 1983. References:
