Abstract:
Xuan Fei Run Zao Decoction was used for treatment of 486 cases of psoriasis with a total effective rate of 90. 3%, so as to test and verify the TCM theory of the lung being in charge of the hair and the lung being closely related with derma tosis. Clinical study found that in patients of psoriasis there was humoral immunological hyperfunction, manifesting increases of IgG and IgA; trace elements copper and ferrum levels increased and zinc, manganese and calcium decreased In the hair: packed cell volume and viscosity of whole blood increased, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate increased.
