ABSTRACT

Based on HUANG Yuanyu's theory of yiqi zhouliu (constant circulatory flowing of qi) it is explored that the pathogenesis of myasthenia gravis refers to qi deficiency in the middle jiao and the disarrangement of zhouliu. It is summarized that the approach to acupuncture diagnosis and treatment should focus on replenishing qi of the middle jiao based on yangming and tonifying the functions of zang organs to eliminate pathogens, assisted with regulating shen (spirit) and opening the orifices so as to promote the recovery of motor and non-motor functions of the four limbs, eyelids, speech articulation, swallowing, vision, respiration and mental state in patients.
