This paper presents Professor XU Jiasong's experience in treating chronic kidney disease through the application of tongue diagnosis for warm diseases and the integration of the"five-step method of syndrome differentiation".Grounded in the guiding principles of traditional Chinese medicine,specifically the"holistic view of constant motion",and drawing on the theoretical framework of sanjiao-zangfu viscera positioning and the relationship between the healthy qi and pathogenic factors in tongue differentiation in warm diseases,Mentor XU emphasizes a clinical diagnostic and treatment approach centered on the"five-step method of syndrome differentiation",which was put forward by Master FANG Yaozhong.He advocates for a comprehensive observation of tongue images,emphasizing comparisons before and after treatment to capture dynamic changes.The tongue image is considered crucial objective evidence for clinical syndrome differentiation,disease diagnosis,treatment effectiveness,and prognosis in chronic kidney disease,underscoring its pivotal role in guiding treatment selection.
