Exploring the Diagnosis and Treatment of Primary Sjogren's Syndrome Based on the Theory of"Xuanfu-Channel-Pore"
Xuanfu is a microstructure that spreads throughout the human body,with functions such as promoting qi circula-tion,promoting fluid flow,infiltrating qi and fluid,and promoting divine energy.It has the attributes of"channels"and"pores",and is functionally used for"opening and closing".Primary Sjogren's syndrome is an autoimmune inflammatory disease that be-longs to the category of"dryness and obstruction"in traditional Chinese medicine.This disease often causes symptoms of dry mouth and eyes due to gland damage,as well as visceral lesions.Traditional Chinese medicine has unique therapeutic advantages for this disease.This article explores the diagnosis and treatment of this disease from the perspective of Xuanfu.It is believed that the deficiency of yin and jin,invasion of dryness and toxin,stagnation of blood stasis,and stagnation of qi mechanism lead to Xuanfu's pathological changes,resulting in the loss of"Tongli"and"Kaishu"properties,resulting in the inability of body fluid to apply according to the shape and nourish the various organs and orifices,leading to the onset of the disease.Therefore,the treatment should focus on restoring the physiological function of Xuanfu,in order to provide new ideas for the treatment of dryness and stuffiness.
