Abstract:
This paper was aimed to summarize professor Huang Chunlin’s medication experiences, rules and prescription characteristics in the treatment of chronic nephritis through data mining on patients’ records of chronic nephritis. The records of 92 outpatients which met the criteria were collected. The total treatment number was 276. Text conversion was made on patients’ records. And the archive of patients’ data was established. With the support of Traditional Chinese Medicine Inheritance Support System, the medication experiences and prescription rules of professor Huang were summarized. The results showed that the top 20 herbs with relatively high using frequencies were mostly sweet in flavor and neutral in nature. The meridian distributions were mostly the kidney, spleen and liver meridian. The medication effects were mainly qi-reinforcing, yang-reinforcing, water-clearing and dampness-removing. Results from data mining showed 5 couplet medicines and 8 new prescriptions in chronic nephritis treatment. It was concluded that in Professor Huang’s syndrome differentiation of chronic nephritis, it was related to the spleen and kidney, and also related to dampness and stasis. The characteristics in medication were “high-dose for severe conditions”, “sweet in flavor and neutral in nature with outstanding effects”, “always related to the spleen and kidney”, “always related to dampness and stasis”.
