Abstract

Revelation of the intrinsic characteristics of"tui"led to questioning of the"hypothesis that tui refers to Bancroftianfilariasis". The analysis of medical bamboo slips from the Han Dynasty unearthed in Wuwei proved that the disease referred to as"Tuo Xia Yang Shi(subscrotalmoistitch)"in these slips was most probably the one now known as Bancroftianfilariasis. The decipherment of numerous bamboo slips from the Chu State that are considered to date back to the period of Warring States revealed that the predecessor to Jue Yin disease was named"or or or or )D or A or C or F or H"; however, medical texts from Mawangdui and Mount Zhangjia refer to this disease as"tui(、>、)"and"tui()"respectively, whereas HuangdiNeijing (The Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic) renames this disease as"tui(、、)", revealing that everything was rendered phonetically.
