Objective To investigate the effects of Yiqi Bushen Huoxue Jiangzhuo Formula on residual renal function(RRF),serum interleukin-6(IL-6),and C-reactive protein(CRP)levels in maintenance peritoneal dialysis(PD)patients with chronic renal failure(CRF).Methods Eighty CRF patients requiring maintenance PD treatment and meeting the traditional Chinese medicine diagnostic criteria of spleen-kidney qi deficiency and damp-phlegm stasis stagnation syndrome were enrolled from the Nephrology Department of Lu'an Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital between July 2022 and July 2024.Patients were randomly divided into an observation group(n=40)and a control group(n=40)using a random number table.Both groups received standard maintenance PD and conventional western medical treatment,while the observation group additionally received Yiqi Bushen Huoxue Jiangzhuo Formula.The treatment duration for both groups lasted 6 months.Changes in RRF,serum levels of inflammatory markers(IL-6,CRP),and nutritional status indicators(hemoglobin[Hb],prealbumin[PA],albumin[ALB])were evaluated before and after treatment.Clinical efficacy was assessed.Results(1)After 6 months of treatment,the overall response rate in the observation group was 90.00％(36/40),while that in the control group was 67.50％(27/40).The intergroup comparison(by chi-square test)showed that the efficacy of the observation group was significantly superior to that of the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).(2)After treatment,the levels of blood urea nitrogen(BUN),serum creatinine(SCr),and RRF in both groups decreased compared to pre-treatment levels(P＜0.05).And the reduction in BUN and SCr of the observation group was significantly greater than that in the control group,while the reduction in RRF was significantly smaller than that in the control group,with all differences being statistically significant(P＜0.01).(3)After treatment,serum IL-6 and CRP levels in both groups decreased compared to pre-treatment levels(P＜0.05).And the reduction in serum IL-6 and CRP levels in the observation group was significantly greater than that in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.01).(4)After treatment,serum Hb,PA,and ALB levels in both groups increased compared to pre-treatment levels(P＜0.05).And the increase in serum Hb,PA,and ALB levels in the observation group was significantly greater than that in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.01).Conclusion Yiqi Bushen Huoxue Jiangzhuo Formula effectively preserves residual renal function,mitigates inflammation,and improves nutritional status in CRF maintenance PD patients with spleen-kidney qi deficiency and damp-phlegm stasis stagnation syndrome.
