  • In addition to our previous study on the diseases and symptoms described in Juan Wooden Slips(居延漢簡), here we focused on therapeutics of Juan Wooden Slips, including herbal medicines, acupuncture, and moxibution. In Juan Wooden Slips, there are 36 species of medicinal herbs and 17 herbal prescriptions. Among the medicinal herbs, 75% of herbs were also used in Shanghanzabing-lun(傷寒雜病論). In terms of efficacy and therapeutic range of the medicinal herbs and prescriptions, Juan Wooden Slips is very similar to Shanghanzabing-lun. In addition, acupuncture were used as a combined with moxibution or herbal remedies similarly to Shanghanzabing-lun. Thus, we suggest that the medical thoughts and technologies shown in Juan Wooden Slips might influence on the establishment of Shanghanzabing-lun.

  • More than 30,000 Wooden Slips were excavated in the Juyan region in 1930s and 1970s. These slips recorded military actions of Juyan Frontier Fortress during Han dynasty, which is about BC 100 ~ AD 30. On the slips, there are many disease names and symptoms mentioned. We focused on a certain disease name, namely, Shnaghan(傷寒; injured by cold), which is the main subject of Shangha-lun(傷寒論). Looking closely into these Juan Wooden Slips, we found many articles recording Shanghan, including related diseases and symptoms, such as Shanghan(傷汗; injured by sweat), headache, fever and chills, immobilization of limbs, unacceptance of foods. And there are another Shanghan-related symptoms, such as inflation of upper-abdomen(心腹支滿), pain of upper abdomen(心腹痛), strain of both armpits(兩胠葥急), inflation of chest(胸脇支滿), tightness and fear in the chest(煩滿). Although they have no direct relationship with Shanghan, there are many symptoms, including the external wounds of waist, finger, thigh, back, breast and head, abscess of leg and elbow, sore throat, itching, leucorrhea, powerlessness of hands and legs(手足癃), visceral injury(傷臟), tinnitus, cold, warm and heat. Because the Wooden Slips are very short, with some characters even missing, we can not confirm the detail of the disease and symptoms. In addition, we will report about the herbal medicines and other treatments, which are recorded on the slips, by further research.
