Compreensão ocidental:
Spleen Blood stasis correlates with splenomegaly, portal hypertension, and abdominal masses. Characterized by left upper quadrant pain, purple tongue, and a choppy pulse.
Evidência de pesquisa:
Multiple randomized controlled trials (RCTs) support acupuncture for these patterns. Cochrane reviews show moderate to strong evidence for acupuncture in chronic pain, digestive disorders, and cardiovascular conditions. Systematic reviews confirm efficacy for respiratory diseases and urinary disorders. Evidence quality varies by condition. Large-scale RCTs recommended for specific pattern differentiation.
