Stage Differentiation and Treatment of Myasthenia Gravis Based on "Four-Dimensional Pivot-Earth" Qi Transformation Mode
The connotation of the "four-dimensional pivot-earth"
qi
transformation mode is a dialectical system of the ascending and descending of
yin
-
yang qi
movement, which presented as "the middle Jiao showing earth
qi
mediating, the left wheel showing water and wood ascending, and the right wheel showing fire and metal converting and descending". Based on this dialectical thinking, it is believed that the core pathogenesis of myasthenia gravis is deficiency of center
qi
and transportation failure to pivot-earth; the middle-stage characteristics of the disease progression are the loss of mediation of the central
qi
, resulting in water coldness and wood constraint, and clear
yang
failing to ascend; the final outcome of this disease is the loss of astringeing of lung metal and
qi
sinking. The treatment should be based on the rule of
qi
movement, so for the start-stage,
Buzhong Yiqi Decoction
(补中益气汤) should be used as the basis to nourish the earth and consolidate the root, and restrengthen the middle
qi
; for the middle-stage, herbs like Yingyanghuo (
Epimedium brevicornu
Maxim.), Bajitian (
Morinda officinalis
How) could be combined to warm the water and soothe the wood, raise
yang
and boost
qi
; for the final stage, plus
Sini Decoction
(四逆汤) to astringe metal to stop collapse, and powerfully supplement original
qi
. All these medicinals can promote pivot-earth re-transportation, four-dimensional transformation, and regular circulation of
qi
movement, so as to provide thoughts for improving the clinical effectiveness of myasthenia gravis.
