Abstract:
Chronic kidney disease(CKD)will eventually progress to end-stage kidney disease and has become one of the common obstinate diseases in China,which becomes a serious threat to human life.Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)shows unique advantages in treating CKD.In the view of Professor Lyu Zhiping,disharmony,in particular the disharmony of yin and yang of kidney,contributes to the core pathogenesis of CKD.Disharmony between kidney and other organs,and disharmony between kidney and exogenous pathogens together with pathological products lead to the complication of yin and yang,superficial and interior,deficiency and excess syndromes in the progression of the disease.Professor Lyu recommended that the clinical medication for CKD should be based on harmonizing therapy by harmonizing shaoyang meridian,harmonizing the spleen and stomach,and harmonizing collaterals and resolving blood stasis,thus to protect kidney function and slow down the progression of CKD.Based on years of clinical experience,professor Lyu formulated the Shen Qi Shenkang Prescription,which aims at primarily tonifying the kidney,and assisting by harmonizing the lung and spleen,clearing heat,removing dampness and eliminating turbid,thus to treat symptoms and root cause simultaneously,and then stronger clinical efficacy for CKD can be achieved.
