Tridoṣaja (त्रिदोषज) refers to “fevers involving three Doṣa” whereas Tridoṣajaprakaraṇa refers to the fourth chapter 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 Tridoṣaja-prakaraṇa 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).
