Abstract

The human body is made up of physical structures and spaces. These physiological spaces play an integral role in metabolic processes. In previous scientific research, these spaces were often neglected. The study of the importance of their existence in the body can help scientifically understand some of the thorniest medical problems that we currently face. It may also help in the diagnosis and prevention of disease, especially of drug-induced origins. The proper reading of the essence of meridians through the perspective of these spaces can help to improve scientific understanding of the principles of acupuncture and moxibustion and the treatment principles of Chinese and Western medicine and ultimately promote the communication and integration of Chinese and Western medicine.

Highlights

The research on basic theory and practical methods of life sciences is based on the composition of the human body
A new understanding of physiological spaces can help to solve a series of difficult problems in medical theory, such as finding out the real cause of many diseases with unknown etiology, how the disease progresses from unformed to formed, how to detect and prevent diseases at an early stage, and how to reduce the formation of iatrogenic and drug-induced diseases
The main reason is that the habitual way of thinking causes us to pay too much attention to the solid entities and ignore the existence of the spaces. This has caused a serious flaw in the current medical basic theory, making it difficult to find a real cause, effectively predict the occurrence and development of disease, and effectively cure diseases, leading to higher iatrogenic and drug-induced diseases

Summary

Introduction

The research on basic theory and practical methods of life sciences is based on the composition of the human body. This article utilizes the special research perspective of physiological space and considers and examines the aspects of philosophy, medical basic theory, clinical, etc., providing a new research angle for many difficult problems in traditional Chinese medicine, such as meridians. When studying and interpreting the principles of Chinese and Western medicine through the perspective of physiological spaces, the TCM theory resembles modern logic in many ways, making it easier to understand and accept. After we incorporate the spaces in the human body into our research horizon, the basic theory of medicine, the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, and the treatment methods would be improved and more practical. There is a higher chance that many nagging medical problems may be solved
