Discuss the Treatment of Renal Proteinuria by Ziteng Gushen Prescription Based on the Theory of"Latent Wind-Xuanfu Opened-Kidney Collateral Stasis"
[Objective]Based on the theory of"Latent Wind-Xuanfu Opened-Kidney Collateral Stasis",to explore the treatment of renal proteinuria by Ziteng Gushen Prescription.[Methods]By consulting ancient and modern literatures,the formation mechanism of renal proteinuria was explained by the theory of"Latent Wind-Xuanfu Opened-Kidney Collateral Stasis",and it put forward the idea of"Expelling Wind,Closing the Xuanfu and Dredging the Collaterals"to treat renal proteinuria.Ziteng Gushen Prescription was established based on clinical experience,and its treatment characteristics and prescription characteris-tics were explained.Finally,a medical case was cited to prove it.[Results]According to the theory of"Latent Wind-Xuanfu Opened-Kidney Collateral Stasis","Latent Wind"is considered as the key cause of proteinuria,"Xuanfu is Opened by Wind"is the basic pathogenesis of renal proteinuria,and"Kidney Collateral Stasis"is both a pathological product and a pathogenic factor to promote the disease.The kidney-Xuanfu opens because of the latent wind,and the latent wind in the kid-ney causes the kidney collateral stasis,and the wind and blood stasis are mutually harmful.Therefore,the treatment of renal proteinuria should be based on expelling wind and closing the Xuanfu for the foundation,dredging the collaterals fot the supplement arity,and the three methods of"Expelling Wind,Closing the Xuanfu and Dredging the Collaterals"should be taken together.Ziteng Gushen Prescription is composed of Semen Cuscutae,Tian Mu Seed(Cornus officinalis),Fructus Ligustri Lucidi,Caulis Lonicerae,Caulis Spatholobi and Caulis Piperis.It adheres to the therapeutic characteristics of"seed medicine which is good at filling essence and closing Xuanfu"and"rattan medicine is good at treating collateral diseases",and has the functions of combining pungency and acid,opening and closing together,supplementing Yin and Yang,supplementing and converging together,strengthening the body resistance and eliminating evil,and combining cold and warm.At the end of the article,the medical records of IgA nephropathy were differentially classified as latent wind in kidney collaterals,Xuanfu being opened,weak Zhengqi and collateral obstruction.The treatment was to expel wind,close the Xuanfu,supplement Qi,dredge the collaterals,and got remarkable curative effect.[Conclusion]The theory of"Latent Wind-Xuanfu Opened-Kidney Col-lateral Stasis"and the method of"Expelling Wind,Closing the Xuanfu and Dredging the Collaterals"provide a new idea for the clinical treatment of renal proteinuria.Ziteng Gushen Prescription is rigorous,which has considerable curative effect on the treatment of renal proteinuria,and can provide more choices for the prevention and treatment of renal proteinuria by tradi-tional Chinese medicine to optimize the clinical efficacy.
