Ayurveda (science of life)
Source: Indian Journal of History of Science: Jvaranirnaya: a rare monograph on diagnosis of fevers from the pre-colonial eraDhātugata (धातुगत) or Dhātugatajvara refers to “fevers affecting various Dhātu”, according to the Tridoṣaja-Prakaraṇa section of the Jvaranirṇaya: an Ayurvedic manuscript dealing exclusively with types of jvara (fevers) written by Sri Nārāyaṇa Paṇḍita in the 16th century CE.—The uniqueness of the text is that one can get a comprehensive classification, symptomatology and diagnosis of jvara, all at one place in this text. [...] The Tridoṣajaprakaraṇa section deals with types of sannipāta which are mostly mentioned by Vāgbhaṭa. Apart from this, it also deals with fevers affecting various Dhātu (dhātugata-jvara) and the strength/severity of each of them (balābala). [...] Some other authors opine kṣīṇa-doṣa to be the cause for dhātugatatva. Doṣa affecting particular dhātu like vāta for asti; pitta affecting sveda, śonita, majja, māṃsa, rasa, meda; kapha affecting śukra, oja, mūtra and viṭ is mentioned. [...] It is mentioned that ‘some’ classify the dhātugata-jvara on the basis of liṅga which is saumya or tīkṣṇa.
