Abstract:
Clinical research of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) kidney disease is controversial for a long time due to the unclear clinical research direction.Based on the long-term TCM clinical practice of kidney disease,we proposed that the kidney disease should be simply divided into a composite type,which was easier for the research design and statistical analysis.It also improved the actual practical ability in the clinical research.In the treatment aspect,further research should be conducted on the application of warm medicine,method of eliminating wind-dampness,method of clearing heat,detoxify and removing dampness,the role of strengthening the body resistance,as well as the combination of therapeutic principle and its application time.Related Chinese herbal medicine research is a common breakthrough point.The clinical efficacy evaluation system should be further improved.In a word,TCM clinical research should be from the clinical demand and followed by problem-oriented design.The implementation should be systematic and step by step in order to improve the research level.
