Abstract:
Objective To explore the medication patterns of famous traditional Chinese medicine practitioners in treating challenging aspects of idiopathic membranous nephropathy(IMN)based on data mining.Methods Medical cases meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria were collected.Statistical analysis of syndrome patterns,herb frequency,association rules,and cluster analysis were conducted for key challenges,including disease duration ≥ 1 year,renal function impairment,hypoalbuminemia,and hypertriglyceridemia.Results A total of 128 medical cases were included.Spleen-kidney deficiency syndrome was identified as the most common pattern.Based on herb frequency and association rule analysis,Huangqi,Baizhu,Fuling,Danggui,Danshen were the most frequently used in prescription.Cluster analysis revealed core herbal groupings primarily based on classical formulas such as Zhenwu decoction,Shenling Baizhu powder,and Shuilu Erxian dan.Conclusion In the medical cases addressing treatment challenges,the syndrome patterns were predominantly characterized by spleen-kidney deficiency.Core medications included Huangqi,Baizhu,Fuling,Danggui and Danshen.The treatment emphasizes strengthening invigorating spleen and kidney,with variations in medication patterns based on disease duration and complications.
