Abstract:
In order to probe into the relationship between the TCM syndrome types and the five indices of fibrotic markers of liver in serum, the HA, hPC I , IV - C in 160 of liver cirrhosis patients induced by chronic hepatitis were examined. Results showed that the 5 indices in all TCM syndrome types were all higher than the control group, each with its specificity. The increased amplitude in the group of liver - stagnant, spleen - deficiency was the least one. It was also found that the 3 indices of liver fibrosis in the group of internal blockade of damp - heat were markedly increased; it was mainly the increase of HA, hPC I in the group of yin-deficiency of both liver - kidney and obstruction of collaterals by static blood; but it was mainly the increase of HA, W - C in the group of Yang - deficiency of spleen and kidney. This demonstrated that the above indices were of significance in TCM syndrome typing for chronic hepatic victims. Lingering of damp -heat may be the trigger factor for liver fibrosis in which blood stasis was present during the whole course of liver fibrosis.
