Laws of Syndrome and Prescription in Yin Deficiency Syndrome of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Based on Complex Network Analysis
To explore the laws of core symptom and traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) prescription in treatment of the Yin deficiency syndrome of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)
in order to provide the objective basis for the treatment of SLE with TCM based on complex network.
Method:
2
Complex network analysis method was used to retrospectively study 322 TCM prescriptions collected from the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine between January 2011 and May 2017 and 134 literatures about treatment of SLE with TCM through computer retrieval. The topological property parameters of the complex network were calculated
and used to analyze the structure of the core network and the compatibility rule of symptom and TCM. Then the core syndrome
herbs
compatibility rules and characteristics of commonly used prescriptions for SLE were analyzed.
Result:
2
The results of analysis of complex network showed that the core TCM herbs for Yin deficiency syndrome of SLE mainly included Rehmanniae Radix
Moutan Cortex
Paeoniae Radix Rubra
Anemarrhenae Rhizoma
Scutellariae Radix
Artemisiae Annuae Herba
Cornt Fructus
Gentianae Macrophyllae Radix
Trionycis Carapax
Ligustri Lucidi Fructus
Paeoniae Radix Alba
Poria
Alismatis Rhizoma
Coicis Semen
Dioscoreae Rhizoma
Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma
Pinelliae Rhizoma.Core prescriptions included Qinghao Biejia Tang and Liuwei Dihuang Wan. Core syndromes included fatigue
poor sleep
anorexia
low fever
five upset heat
night sweats
dizziness
rash
skin erythema
facial red butterfly erythema
dark red rash
alopecia
weak waist and knees
joint pain
muscle pain
tinnitus
thirst
sore throat
red tongue
tongue with less fur
and thready and rapid pulse. Compared with the diagnostic criteria of the syndrome
the core symptoms included some new common clinical symptoms
such as poor sleep
anorexia
facial red butterfly erythema
dark red rash.
Conclusion:
2
The main pathogenesis of SLE is Yin deficiency and blood heat
so the treatment should be nourishing Yin and generating body fluid
removing pathogenic heat from blood and clearing deficient heat. In this study
the results of clinical retrospective review and computer retrieval by the complex network analysis method were basically consistent with the clinical application. It can be used as a reference for the clinical syndrome differentiation and treatment of Yin deficiency syndrome of SLE.
