Middle qi sinking pattern
Where they diverge
Traditional concepts do not map one-to-one onto modern diagnoses. Read the divergence note first.
Statistics Korea's KCD-9 registers this entry as U68.1 Middle qi sinking pattern under pattern identification. Pattern identification does not correspond to modern diagnostic entities. One pattern can appear across many diseases, and the same disease can be differentiated into several patterns depending on the patient. No modern diagnosis is therefore asserted here. The two systems do not merely differ in breadth — they classify along different axes.
- Generated from the KCD-9 listing and the nature of its category. No specific modern correspondence has been assessed for this entry.
- KCD does not carry the Donguibogam volume, so it is left blank here. It needs checking against the original text.
