International Research in Chinese Medicine

Based on the Five Movements and Six Qi theory of Huangdi Neijing and the spatiotemporal view of Yuanhuiyunshi proposed by Shao Yong in Huangji Jingshi, this paper systematically sorts out the characteristics of representative drug use in multiple historical periods from the Eastern Han Dynasty to the present, and combines the theory of Qiyun to explore the formation mechanism of mainstream diseases in each period. By comparing the main movement and main Qi of Taiyang Hanshui, Shaoyang Xianghuo, Yangming Zaojin and other main movement and medication patterns, it is revealed that the development of diseases has significant spatiotemporal regularity. At the end of the article, the current and future Qiyun trends are deduced, and it is proposed that lung disease, blood disease, and liver disease may become the main types of diseases in the future. The research is of enlightening significance for the inheritance and development of the holistic view of traditional Chinese medicine and the treatment principle of "adapting to the times".
