Bob,

In this month's Blue Boppy Online Journal your article on correlations between western lab values and TCM patterns you mentioned " except in the case of kidney yang vacuity, no single lab value has been proven to correlate with a single pattern". Which lab value is this?

I am going to foward it to the instructors for PCOM's Cardiology module where they are trying to make some correlates between western science and TCM.

Thanks for your work on this and all the other articles. Looking foward to meeting you at your Chicago seminar.

Rich,

 

I don't remember the value off hand. I believe it is mentioned in

Volker Scheid's in Contemporary China (Duke

University Press). Unfortunately, that book is not indexed as

completely as possible. After searching for 20 minutes, I still have

not been able to find. Sorry.

I am pretty sure it is the excretion of some cortisol metabolite

 

(17-hydroxycortisol perhaps??) I think you can find it on a

medline search

the info on kidney yang and 17-hydroxycortisol is to be found in

the following book

 

Recent Advances in Chinese Herbal drugs by jin huang zhu

 

available from redwing

 

the book also has chapters on spleen xu and cyclic AMP and

blood stagnation and various parameters
