饥，饥而虚满不能食。
寸口脉弱而缓，弱则阳气不足，缓即胃气有余，噫而吞酸，食卒不下，气填于膈上。（
一作下。）
寸口脉微而弱，微即无气，弱即血不足，血不足即不能呼，气不足则不能吸，呼吸不足
则胁满短气。
寸口脉微而涩，微即卫气不得，涩即荣气不逮，荣卫不能相将，三焦无所仰，身体痹不
仁，荣气不足即疼而烦满，口即难言，卫气虚即恶寒而数欠。
寸口脉微而涩，微即卫气衰，涩即荣气不足，卫衰其色黄，荣不足其色青。荣为根，卫
为叶，荣卫俱微即根叶枯槁，而寒栗、咳逆、唾腥、吐涎沫。

寸口诸微为无阳，诸濡为无血，诸弱为发热，诸紧为寒，微濡为血不足。
寸口脉沉且紧的，是寒邪凝结在心下引起疼痛。（《千金方》说：脉沉而紧，如果心下有寒，时常疼痛，是有积滞的邪气。）
寸口脉沉滑的，是胸中有水气，面目浮肿且有轻微发热，这叫做风水病。

寸口脉弱且迟，弱脉表示卫气微弱，迟脉表示营中有寒，营属血，血寒就会发热。卫属气，气微弱就会心中觉得饥饿，因虚满而不能进食。
寸口脉弱且缓，弱脉表示阳气不足，缓脉表示胃气有余，会出现打嗝吞酸，食物突然咽不下去，气堵塞在膈上。（另一版本作“膈下”。）

寸口脉微且缓，微脉表示卫气疏泄，疏泄则肌肤空虚，缓脉表示胃气充足，充足则谷物消化而水液转化，谷物进入胃中，脉道才形成（地指脉道如大地承载万物，此处意指脉道充盈），水液进入经络，血液才能生成，营气旺盛则肌肤必然疏松，三焦隔绝，经脉名为血崩。
寸口脉微且数，微脉即为风邪，数脉即为热邪，微脉主风，风邪导致汗出，数脉主热，热导致振栗发冷。

When the Cun Kou (Cun position of the radial artery) pulse is tight, it indicates headache due to wind-stroke or headache due to cold damage.
When the Cun Kou pulse is deep and horizontal, there is an accumulation in the hypochondrium and pain from a horizontal accumulation in the abdomen.
When the Cun Kou pulse is floating, large, and solid, it indicates undigested food retention; a floating and slippery pulse indicates the same condition.
When the Cun Kou pulse is deep and tight, cold congealing in the epigastrium causes pain. (*Qianjin Fang* states: A deep and tight pulse, if accompanied by cold in the epigastrium with frequent pain, indicates accumulated pathogenic factors.)
When the Cun Kou pulse is deep and slippery, there is water qi in the chest, facial swelling, and slight fever; this is named Feng Shui (Wind Water edema).
When the Cun Kou pulse is deep and weak, there are alternating chills and fever, hernia, jia masses (abdominal lumps), and lower abdominal pain.
When the Cun Kou pulse is faint and weak, both Qi and Blood are deficient; men may vomit blood, women may have vaginal bleeding, and they may vomit fluids.
When the Chun Kou pulse is weak and wiry, there is pain in the chest, hypochondrium, waist, and back.
When the Cun Kou pulses on both sides are wiry, there is tension and pain in the hypochondrium, accompanied by a rough sensation and coldness.
When the Cun Kou pulse is wiry, tight, and thin, the pain is located in the epigastrium.
When the Cun Kou pulse is surging and large, it indicates cold damage febrile disease, accompanied by fullness and pain in the chest and hypochondrium.
When the Cun Kou pulse is thin, deep, and slippery, there is an accumulation in the hypochondrium, with fullness on both sides and radiating pain to the back.
When the Cun Kou pulse is thin and rapid, rapidity indicates fever, while thinness indicates vomiting.
When the Cun Kou pulse is slow and rapid, it indicates wind-stroke.
When the Cun Kou pulse is deep and accompanied by panting, there are alternating chills and fever.
When the Cun Kou pulse is abundant and tight, it indicates injury from food.
A tense Cun Kou pulse indicates hernia, jia masses, and lower abdominal pain.
When the Cun Kou pulse is floating, large, and rapid, it is called Yang within Yang disease, characterized by distress from irritability and fullness, body heat, headache, and heat in the abdomen.
When the Cun Kou pulse is deep and thin, it is called Yin within Yang disease, characterized by distress from sadness and unhappiness, aversion to human voices, shortness of breath with spontaneous sweating, obstruction of Yin Qi, and inability to raise the arms.
When the Cun Kou pulse is strong and large but absent at the Chi position, it is Yang overcoming Yin disease, characterized by distress from lower back and waist pain, injury to the genitalia, and coldness in the calves.
If the Cun Kou pulse is absent on one side, that arm cannot be used; if the Cun Kou pulse is absent on both hands, the condition is incurable.
When the Cun Kou pulse is weak and slow, weakness indicates deficient Wei Qi (Defensive Qi), and slowness indicates Cold in Ying Qi (Nutritive Qi). Ying corresponds to Blood; Blood Cold leads to fever. Wei corresponds to Qi; deficient Qi leads to a feeling of hunger in the heart, but due to deficiency and fullness, eating is impossible.
When the Cun Kou pulse is weak and moderate, weakness indicates insufficient Yang Qi, and moderation indicates excess Stomach Qi, leading to belching and acid regurgitation, sudden inability to swallow food, and Qi blocking above the diaphragm. (Another version reads "below the diaphragm".)
When the Cun Kou pulse is faint and weak, faintness indicates lack of Qi, and weakness indicates insufficient Blood. Insufficient Blood prevents exhalation; lack of Qi prevents inhalation. Insufficient respiration leads to chest fullness and shortness of breath.
When the Cun Kou pulse is faint and choppy, faintness indicates Wei Qi failing to arrive, and choppy indicates Ying Qi failing to reach. When Ying and Wei cannot support each other, the San Jiao (Triple Burner) has no reliance, leading to numbness and insensitivity of the body. Insufficient Ying Qi causes pain and irritability/fullness, making speech difficult; deficient Wei Qi causes aversion to cold and frequent yawning.
When the Cun Kou pulse is faint and choppy, faintness indicates decline of Wei Qi, and choppy indicates insufficiency of Ying Qi. Decline of Wei Qi manifests as yellow complexion; insufficiency of Ying Qi manifests as blue/green complexion. Ying is the root, Wei is the leaf. If both Ying and Wei are faint, the root and leaf wither, leading to chills, coughing and reverse Qi flow, spitting bloody sputum, and vomiting saliva/foam.
When the Cun Kou pulse is faint and moderate, faintness indicates dispersed Wei Qi, which makes the skin porous; moderation indicates sufficient Stomach Qi. Sufficient Stomach Qi digests grain and transforms water. Grain enters the Stomach, and the pulse channels become established like the earth; water enters the meridians, and Blood is formed. If Ying Qi becomes excessive, the skin becomes loose, the San Jiao is cut off, and the meridian condition is named Blood Collapse.
When the Cun Kou pulse is faint and rapid, faintness indicates Wind, and rapidity indicates Heat. Faintness/Wind leads to sweating; rapidity/Heat leads to shivering and chills.
When the Cun Kou pulse is faint and slow, a deep Chi pulse indicates Blood pathology, and a slippery pulse indicates Excess. Blood Excess internally knots into the collaterals and chest/diaphragm. Lung萎 (Lung Flaccidity) presents with pale complexion, inability to breathe, firmness of the Heart with loss of color, inability to speak, Liver Qi rising leading to Sinew Jue (reversal), cold extremities, and unconsciousness.
When the Cun Kou pulse is faint and soggy, soggy indicates weakness, and faint indicates Cold. Soggy indicates aversion to cold, weak indicates fever, and soggy indicates reversal of cold. When faint and soggy interact, it causes irritability, with the pathogenic Qi located in the Heart.
When the Cun Kou pulse is faint and the Chi pulse is tight, the person is deficient and suffers from profuse sweating, indicating that Yin Qi is constantly present while Yang Qi is completely absent.
Various faint Cun Kou pulses indicate absence of Yang; various soggy pulses indicate absence of Blood; various weak pulses indicate fever; various tight pulses indicate Cold; faint and soggy together indicate Blood insufficiency.
