Professor Shang Lili's experience in the treatment of children with cough variant asthma based on the theory of"turbidity in lung leading to obstruction in collaterals"
Cough variant asthma(CVA)is a common chronic respiratory disease in children and the leading cause of chronic cough in children in China.Professor Shang Lili believes that CVA is located in the lung,and the etiol-ogy and pathogenesis are the invasion of wind,cold,phlegm,dampness and blood stasis into the lung collaterals,which lead to impaired purification and transformation of the lung and obstructed collaterals.Therefore,Prof.Shang Lili puts forward the idea of treating CVA from the perspective of"turbidity in lung leading to obstruction in collaterals".Clinically,in order to restore the functions of purification and transformation of the lung and promoting the circulation of Qi and blood of lung collaterals,Prof.Shang Lili adopts the methods of dissipating the wind and dispersing the cold,relieving urgency and spasms,strengthening spleen and removing phlegm,relieving depression by soothing lung,nour-ishing the essence and removing stasis,dredging collaterals and relieving obstruction,etc..The above methods have achieved good curative effect,which have certain reference significance for clinical treatment of CVA.
