Abstract:
It is proposed that the disease mechanism evolution of systemic lupus erythematosus can be summarized into four stages: initial invasion and latency, the pathogenesis remains concealing; latent toxin accumulation, the disease gradually becomes apparent; active toxin begins damaging, the disease manifests aggressively; damage resulting to deficiency, the disease course prolonged. Based on the stages of latent toxin evolution, the syndrome differentiation and treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus can be summarized as follows: during the initial latent stage, characterized by latent dampness and heat stagnation, modified Sanren Decoction (三仁汤) should be used; in the toxin outbreak stage, marked by intense heat toxin, modified Xijiao Dihuang Decoction (犀角地黄汤) combined with modified Qingwen Baidu Decoction (清瘟败毒饮) should be used; during the toxin damage stage, which presents as latent toxin damaging zang-fu organs, modified Qinghao Biejia Decoction (青蒿鳖甲汤) should be used; in the healthy qi deficiency stage, characterized by deficiencies of qi, blood, yin, and yang, modified Xieli Shiquan Ointment (燮理十全膏) should be used.
