Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical effect of Ziyin Qingshenyin on lupus nephritis(LN)with Yin deficiency and internal heat syndrome.Methods Sixty patients diagnosed with LN were selected from June 2020 to May 2022 from our hospital as research partici-pants and randomly divided into control group(n=30)and combination group(n=30).The control and combination groups were adminis-tered conventional Western medicine and conventional Western medicine with Ziyin Qingshenyin,respectively.Clinical efficacy,traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome score and efficacy,renal function index[serum albumin(ALB),serum creatinine(sCr),hemoglobin(Hb),blood urea nitrogen(BUN),and 24 h urinary protein quantitation(24 h Upro)],immunological indicators[complement C3,com-plement C4,immunoglobulin(Ig)M,IgG,and IgA],inflammatoryindicators[C-reactive protein(CRP)and erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR)],disease activity score of systemic lupus erythematosus(SLEDAI),and safety were determined.Results The total effective rate(86.67%,83.33%)of the combination group was higher than that of the control group(63.33%,60.00%)(P＜0.05).Following treatment,the five syndrome scores of heat,sore throat,night sweats,and macula in combination group were lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05).After treatment,24 h Upro,BUN,sCr,IgM,IgG,IgA,CRP,ESR,and SLEDAI scores in the combination group were lower than those in control group,while ALB,Hb,complement C3,and complement C4 were higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion The Ziyin Qingshen-yin treatment has notable effects on LN with Yin deficiency and internal heat syndrome,which can improve renal function and immunolog-ical indexes,reduce inflammatory factors,and contribute to disease control.
