Elaboration on Homology of Sweat and Urine / 浙江中医药大学学报

[Objective]To research the elaboration on homology of the sweat and the urine in essence,which seems different in clinical practice.[Method]Using the method of literature studies,based on the sweat and the urine,this paper analyzes the relationship and the interaction between sweat and urine and their respective relevant organs and describes their belonging,their root,their homology,their production,and their difference among each other, to explore the elaboration on homology of sweat and urine in essence.[Result]What the interrelationships among them include" the sweat secreted from the coat, the coat contacted with the lung""the urine issued from bladder,the bladder contacted with the kidney""the coat,which secretes sweat,corresponding to the bladder issuing for urine","the lung,which contacts with the coat,interlinking the bladder which contacts with the kidney","the sweat and the urine belonging to the body fluid,come from the bladder","the sweat and the urine having root in the body fluid,go out of the bladder"and"the sweat and the urine coming from the bladder,out of gasification" "homology of the sweat and the urine,but different from each other".[Conclusion]It reveals that not only the sweat and urine,but also the related viscera is homologous,including the coat corresponding to the bladder,and the lung and the bladder being interlinked.It also points out that the sweat and the urine belong to the body fluid,coming from the bladder.Under the action of kidney Yang,heart heat and sunlight,it goes out of the bladder ,to reach the coat outside for sweat,to issue for urine,which has difference in clinical practice.

The Effects of Ryo-kei-jutsu-kan-to / 日本東洋医学雑誌

There are many indications for Ryo-kei-jutsu-kan-to, such as orthostatic hypotension, cardiac neurosis, migraine, congestive heart failure, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo and eye disease. Although in oriental medicine Ryo-kei-jutsu-kan-to is used as a hydragogue agent for sui-doku (disorders of the body's fluid metabolism), its actual effect on hydragogue action remains unclear. We previously carried out hemodynamics tests before and after administration of Ryo-kei-jutsu-kan-to for a patient with orthostatic hypotension due to peripheral autonomic disorder. The pathosis of the patient before administration of Ryo-kei-jutsu-kan-to was found to be sui-doku caused by the excessive increase of circulating blood volume. We reported that after administration of Ryo-kei-jutsu-kan-to the blood pressure of the patient in the standing position was elevated by increased peripheral vascular resistance, while excessively increased circulating blood volume decreased. This time we administered Ryo-kei-jutsu-kan-to for four cases, such as orthostatic hypotension with migraine, cardiac neurosis, congestive heart failure, and hypotension in dialysis. We again realized that it also increases peripheral vascular resistance. As one of the dimensions of so-called hydragogue action, it is important to understand that Ryo-kei-jutsu-kan-to has a hydragogue effect against the retention of excess fluids (sui-doku) in the body through increasing peripheral vascular resistance by vasoconstriction.
