Exploring the Relationship Between Liver and Executive Function Decline Based on "the Liver Governs the Designing of Strategy"
The concept of "spirit" in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) aligns closely with "the liver governs the designing of strategy". By exploring the relationship between the liver and executive function decline, it is proposed that prolonged liver constraint leads to indecisiveness in strategy designing, which is the initiating factor for executive function decline; liver bloo
d deficiency causes difficulties in executing strategy, which forms an essential foundation for the progression of executive function decline; obstruction in the "liver-
du mai
-brain" pathway leads to unclear strategy designing, which accelerates executive function decline. This relationship is examined from the perspectives of TCM, modern medicine, and cognitive psychology, aiming to provide insights into addressing executive function decline through treatments focused on the liver.
