Professor Cai Dingfang believes that depression is mainly blamed on the liver and closely related to the heart and kidneys. Liver depression and qi stagnation are its basic pathogenesis. He is good at using the diagnosis and treatment method of disease and syndrome differentiation and treatment, and closely integrates the three-stage treatment principle of depression of Western medicine with syndrome differentiation and treatment of traditional Chinese medicine. In the acute phase of depression, he treats the disease from liver aspect, but in the consolidation phase, he advocates the method of tonifying the kidney, and in the maintenance phase, he treats the disease based on the heart condition. And one proven case is presented.
