Abstract:The"Four-in-One"theory provides a new idea for studying classical formulas from the four elements of property,location,tendency,and syndrome.This article first starts from the"Four-in-One"theory to explore the four elements of Gualou Xiebai Banxia Decoction(瓜萎薤白半夏汤)."The property of the formula"is a combination of cold and heat,with pungency and warmth as the main factors,assisted by bitterness and cold."The location of the formula"is the chest and heart,connecting to the back."The tendency of the formula"is mainly about dispersion,with purging within the dispersion."The syndrome of the formula"is characterized by insufficient chest yang and phlegm blocking the heart vessels,with slight yang and excessive yin.On this basis,the"Four-in-One"theory is used to explain the mechanism of Gualou Xiebai Banxia Decoction in the treatment of angina pectoris after percutaneous coronary intervention,and a medical case is provided as an example.
