Cao Shi-li's Experience of Diagnosis and Treatment of Lupus Nephritis
Professor Cao Shi-li believes that kidney deficiency is the occurrence basis of lupus nephritis (LN); wind pathogen can induce or aggravate proteinuria; heat toxin is an important inducement of the disease; dampness heat and blood stasis are the main pathological factors throughout the disease. In LN active period, wind pathogen and heat toxin are common. The main manifestation in remission period is deficiency of spleen and kidney. Professor Cao's treatment of LN in remission period pays equal attention to strengthening healthy qi and eliminating pathogenic factors. He not only focuses on tonifying the spleen and kidney to cure the root cause, but also dispelling wind, clearing heat, removing dampness and activating blood circulation to treat the manifestations. Professor Cao believes that the fundamental purpose of the treatment of LN is to keep the collaterals unobstructed, and make good use of insects, ants or rattan drugs to eliminate wind pathogen. Commonly used drugs include Chantui (,Periostracum Cicadae,), Baijiangcan (,Bombyx Batryticatus,), Quanxie (,Scorpio,), Dilong (,Pheretima,), Qingfengteng (,Caulis Sinomenii,), Jixueteng (,Caulis Spatholobi,), Luoshiteng (,Caulis Trachelospermi,), etc. He chooses different drugs for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis according to the duration of the disease and the severity of blood stasis. He does not use the only method of draining dampness to eliminate dampness, but adopts different methods in triple energizer: In upper energizer, resolving dampness with aromatics is used. In middle energizer, dryness dampness and activating the spleen is used. In lower energizer, draining dampness with bland diuretics is used. In remission period, the condition is relatively stable, so Professor Cao treats the disease root by strengthening the spleen and nourishing the kidney, while tonifying the spleen and kidney for dredging and tonifying together, so that the tonic is not stagnant. Shenghuangqi (,Radix Scutellariae,), Dangshen (,Radix Codonopsis,), Baishao (,Radix Paeoniae Alba,), Baizhu (,Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae,), Danggui (,Radix Angelicae Sinensis,), Hujisheng (,Herba Visci,), Duzhong (,Cortex Eucommiae,), etc. are often used.
