Abstract:
ObjectiveTo observe the effect of Dahuang Xiezhuo prescription on the clinical symptoms, blood uric acid, and renal tubular function of patients with immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy in stages 1-2 of chronic kidney disease (CKD) complicated with hyperuricemia (HUA). MethodSixty patients with IgA nephropathy in stages 1-2 of CKD complicated with HUA of spleen and kidney deficiency and combined turbidity and blood stasis syndromes were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, with 30 cases in each group. The patients in the control group received basic treatment, i.e., losartan potassium tablets 50-100 mg/time, once per day, and sodium bicarbonate tablets 0.5 g/time, three times per day by oral administration, combined with low-salt, low-fat, and low-purine diet. The patients in the observation group received Dahuang Xiezhuo prescription on the basis of basic treatment, one dose per day, twice a day in the morning and evening with warm water. Both groups were treated for two months. The total scores of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome, blood pressure, 24 h urinary protein (24 h UTP), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (SCr) [glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated by CKD-epidemiology collaboration (CKD-EPI) formula], serum uric acid (SUA), and renal tubular function indexes [urinary α1-microglobulin (α1-MG), urinary β2-microglobulin (β2-MG), urinary kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL)] of the two groups before treatment and two months after treatment were recorded. The clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated two months after treatment. ResultAfter 2 months of treatment,the total effective rate in the observation group was 81.48%(22/27),higher than 50.00%(14/28) in the control group(χ2 =6.661,P<0.05). The total scores of TCM syndrome, 24 h UTP, and SUA in the observation group and the observation group were lower than those before treatment (P<0.05), and compared with the control group after treatment, the observation group decreased more significantly (P<0.05). After treatment, the blood pressure in the observation group and the observation group was lower than that before treatment (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in blood pressure between the two groups after treatment. After treatment, the levels of urinary α1-MG, β2-MG, KIM-1, and NGAL in the two groups were lower than those before treatment (P<0.05), and the observation group was lower than the control group after treatment (P<0.05). There were no significant inter-group and intra-group differences in BUN, SCr, and eGFR levels before and after treatment. There were no obvious abnormalities in blood routine, liver function, and electrolytes before and after treatment in the two groups, and no adverse reactions such as allergies occurred. ConclusionDahuang Xiezhuo prescription can effectively improve the clinical symptoms of IgA nephropathy with HUA (CKD1-2) patients with spleen and kidney deficiency and combined turbidity and blood stasis syndromes, reduce blood uric acid level, alleviate renal tubular injury, and protect the kidney. The curative effect is better than that of basic treatment.
