Abstract:
Objective To explore the prescribing law of TCM in national patents for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH);To provide a reference for clinical medication.Methods Data on TCM compound prescriptions for the treatment of BPH were retrieved from the China National Intellectual Property Administration(CNIPA)patent retrieval and analysis system,covering the period from January 1,2000,to October 31,2023.The frequency,efficacy category,properties and tastes,meridian tropism,core complex co-occurrence network,and potential TCM clusters mentioned in the patents were analyzed using Excel 2016,SPSS Modeler 18.0,SPSS Statistics 27,and Cytoscape 3.10.0 software.Results A total of 182 patents were included,involving 404 kinds of Chinese materia medica,with a total frequency of 2054 times.Among them,22 kinds of Chinese materia medica had a frequency of≥20,with the most frequently used Chinese materia medica being Astragali Radix,Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma,Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex,Epimedii Folium,Salviea Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma,Plantaginis Semen,Poria,Vaccariae Semen,Alismatis Rhizoma and Paeoniae Radix Rubra.The high-frequency herbs primarily consisted of tonifying herbs(267 times,13.00%),blood circulation-activating and stasis-resolving herbs(216 times,10.52%),and diuretic and dampness-percolating herbs(147 times,7.16%).The properties of the herbs were mainly sweet and cold,and they were mainly attributed to the liver and kidney meridians.Association rule analysis yielded 10 common drug pairs,including Cornus Officinalis-Rehmannize Radix et Praeparata,Curcumae Rhizoma-Sparganii Rhizoma,and Astragali Radix-Codonopsis Radix.The drug combination with the highest confidence was Angelicae Sinensis Radix-Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex-Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma.Clustering analysis revealed five drug combinations,while potential TCM clustering analysis identified five groups,among which the"Zingiberis Rhizoma-Os Draconis-Angelicae Pubescentis Radix-Scallion-Rice Bran-Speranskiae Herba"network demonstrated the highest degree of interconnection(Score=6).Conclusion The high-frequency herbs in national patents for the treatment of BPH with TCM compound prescriptions mainly focus on tonifying the spleen and kidney,activating blood circulation to remove stasis,and clearing heat and draining dampness,providing a reference for clinical practice.
