基于整体论医学的体质医学的发展走向

体质是人体整体表现出的特征,因而只能采用整体的方法进行研究。近年来兴起的体质医学基本上都源自整体论观念下的传统医学。与世界其他传统医学相比,中医学具有可用于体质辨识和调控的最完备理论体系。因此,现代医学的体质医学应当奠定在中医辨证论治体系基础上。采用现代科学方法发展现代医学的体质医学,主要应着眼于以下方向：1）对基本的体质类型的进一步区分;2）体质辨识过程中客观指标的引入;3）由基本型体质组合成的复合型体质及调控方法的研究;4）结合定性规则判定及定量选择的体质辨识模型的建立;5）可用于人体功能描述、人体模型验证和人类体质辨识的计算机仿真平台的建立。

The Development Trend of the Body Constitution Medicine Based on Holistic Medicine

Body constitution reflects the characteristics of whole human body,therefore,it is only appropriate to understand and re- search human physiology and pathology through a holistic approach. The surging study on constitutional medicine owes its origin to the concept of holism in Traditional Medicine. Compared to other country’s traditional medicines,Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCM） takes all factors into accounts in order to achieve effective treatment. Therefore,today’s constitutional medicine should lay its corner-stone on the system of diagnosis and treatment according to syndromes in TCM. Applying modern scientific methods to develop the body constitution medicine primarily focuses on the following directions： 1） further distinguishing basic types of body constitution; 2） introducing objective indicators in the identification process of body constitution; 3） study on the composite body constitution which is composed from the basic body constitutions and their control methods; 4） establishing a model that can be used for identifying body constitution of human body by combining the discriminant based on qualitative rules and choice based on quantitative calculation; 5） establishing a Computer Simulation Platform that can be used to describe the functional activity of the human body,to verify the model of the human body,and to identify the human body constitution.
