19、 has been drawn about the form and crux of the triple warmer.中医英语翻译概论n一般認為，三焦是包羅人体所有內脏的一個大脏，nIt is generally recognized that“triple warmer”is a large bowel containing all the internal organs.n如明 張介賓說：三焦者，確有一腑，蓋脏腑之外，軀殼之內，包羅諸脏，一腔之大腑也。nFor instance,Zhang Jiebin,a medical man in the Ming dynasty,said,“T

20、riple warmer is,in fact,a bowel.It is outside all the viscera and bowels but within the body,contains all the other organs and is the largest bowel within the body cavity.”中医英语翻译概论n在中医理论中，三焦也是劃分軀体部位的一個概念。nIn the theory of TCM the term“triple warmer”is also used to locate the body parts.n即膈以上的部位為上焦，包

21、括心、肺；膈以下、臍以上的部位為中焦，包括脾、胃；臍以下為下焦，包括肝、肾、大小肠、膀胱、女子胞等。nThe upper warmer is the portion of the body cavity above the diaphragm which houses the heart and the lung.The middle warmer is the portion between the diaphragm and umbilicus(navel)which houses the spleen and the stomach.The lower warmer is the por

22、tion below the umbilicus which houses the liver,the kidney,the urinary bladder,the intestines and the uterus.中医英语翻译概论n其中肝脏，按其部位來說，应归划中焦。nAccording to the livers location,it can be clearly seen that the liver is an organ within the middle warmer.n但中医認為，肝肾同源，关係密切，故將肝肾同劃歸下焦。nBut it is said that the liv

23、er is an organ within the lower warmer.Why?Because TCM believes that the liver and the kidney have the same source(a common source)and a close relationship,thus puts the liver into the lower warmer(together with the kidney).中医英语翻译概论n三焦的生理功能，总的來說，是总司人体气化。nGenerally speaking,the physiological function

24、s of triple warmer control the activities of the qi of the human body.n分开來說，上焦主呼吸、主宣发(实指心、肺的功能)，即把積於胸中的气宣布、布达全身，若霧露之溉，故稱上焦如霧；nThe upper warmer controls respiration,and activates the flow of vital energy,blood and body fluid(referring to,in fact,the functions of the heart and lung),i.e.,it disperses

25、pectoral qi accumulated in the chest to all parts of the body just as fog and dew moisten the earth.This is why TCM says that“The upper warmer is like a sprinkler for distributing nutrients and qi.”中医英语翻译概论n动笔！n中焦主运(实指脾、胃的功能)，即腐熟水谷，运化精微，以化气血，故喻之為中焦如漚；nThe middle warmer functions in transportation an

26、d transformation(referring to in fact,the functions of the spleen and stomach),i.e.it ferments water and food and transports and transforms food essence in order to produce vital energy and blood.Therefore,it is likened to a fermentation tun,where food is digested.中医英语翻译概论n动笔！n下焦主分別清濁、排泄尿液与大便(实指肾、小肠

27、、大肠、膀胱的功能)，以上生理功能均具有向下、向外排泄的特点故稱下焦如瀆。nThe lower warmer separates clear fluid from turbid fluid and discharges urine and stool,(referring to,in fact,the functions of the kidney,the small intestine,the large intestine and the urinary bladder).These two physiological functions mentioned above are chara

28、cterized by excreting wastes downwards and outwards.It is said that the lower warmer works like gutters,to filter and drain off waste and superfluous water.中医英语翻译概论n三焦的這些生理功能，实際上是体內各脏腑功能的总合。nIn fact,all these physiological functions of the triple warmer are the sum total of the activities of all the

29、 viscera and bowels in the body.n在病理上，上、中、下三焦异常所出現的病证，实際上也是各部位脏腑功能的异常表現。nPathologically,diseases(disease patterns)due to an abnormality of upper,or middle,or lower warmer are manifestations of dysfunctions of the viscera or bowels within it.中医英语翻译概论nPhysiologically,two aspects are involved in the re

30、lationship between the lung and the spleen.nThe lung and the spleen are physiologically related in two ways.nOne is the production of the pectoral qi.nThe lung is responsible for inhaling fresh air and the spleen for absorbing food nutrients through transportation and transformation.nThe accumulatio

31、n of the fresh air and food nutrients in the chest eventually transforms into the pectoral qi.中医英语翻译概论nThus the normal function of the lung and the spleen are prerequisite to sufficient production of the pectoral qi.nNormal functioning of the lung and the spleen are thus essential for sufficient pro

32、duction of(the)pectoral qi.nSufficient production of(the)pectoral qi depends on the normal functioning of the lung and the spleen.nThe other is the metabolism of fluid.nThe other involves the metabolism of fluid.中医英语翻译概论nThe spleen absorbs and transports water and the lung distributes water to all p

33、arts of the body,both of which are important to the metabolism of water.nThe spleen and the lung are of vital importance in fluid metabolism since water is absorbed and transported by the spleen and distributed to all parts of the body by the lung.中医英语翻译概论nIf deficiency of spleen-qi or insufficiency

34、 of lung-qi affects the production of the pectoral qi,it will lead to shortness of breath,no desire to speak,chest oppression,poor appetite and loose stool.nIf deficiency of spleen-qi or lung-qi affects the production of(the)pectoral qi,it will lead to shortness of breath,reluctance to speak,chest distrest,poor appetite and loose stool.nIf it affects the metabolism of fluid,it will bring on cough,asthma*,profuse phlegm,edema and oliguria.nIf fluid metabolism is affected,cough and panting,excessive phlegm,edema and oliguria would be resulted.中医英语翻译概论THANK YOU
