    Journal: Zhongguo Zhen Jiu; 2021 Feb 12; 41(2):225-8. PubMed ID: 33788476.
    Abstract:
    In the paper, the basic situation and description of meridians are introduced on Zubi Shiyimai Jiujing (Moxibustion Classics of Eleven Meridians of Legs and Arms) and Yinyang Shiyimai Jiujing (Moxibustion Classic on Eleven Yin and Yang Meridians) unearthed from Mawangdui, Maishu (Book of Meridians) from Zhangjiashan, the lacquer figure from Shuangbaoshan, the lacquer figure as well as Maishu (Book of Meridians) unearthed from Laoguanshan. By analyzing the differences of the records of the aforementioned unearthed literature and the meridians described on the excavated lacquer figures in comparison with the "twelve meridians" in Huangdi Neijing (The Yellow Emperor 's Inner Classic), it is viewed that the development of meridian system, from "eleven meridians" to "twelve meridians", from "independent flowing line" to the circular motion channel as "endless cycling", is influenced by the symbolic model of image numerology of "6 for the Heaven and 5 for the Earth" and the law of the reciprocal change of yin and yang. The description of meridians by the medical scholars at the early eras are based on various kinds of practices, such as clinical diagnosis and treatment, qigong and daoyin. Hence, the construction of the knowledge system of meridians is affected by the symbol model of image numerology. 分析20世纪70年代以来出土的马王堆《足臂十一脉灸经》《阴阳十一脉灸经》、张家山医简《脉书》、双包山漆人、老官山漆人、老官山医简《脉书》的基本情况和经络描述。通过对比以上出土文献记载的、出土漆人身上刻画的经脉与《黄帝内经》中的“十二脉”差异，认为经络系统从“十一脉”到“十二脉”、从独立循行到成为“如环无端”圆运动通道，是受到“天六地五”的象数符号模型、阴阳往复变化规律的影响。早期医家的经络描述基于临床诊疗、气功导引等多种实践，而建构经络知识体系时则会受到象数符号模型的影响。.
