Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine, and specifically relates to a medicine-food homologous traditional Chinese medicine formula for promoting water excretion and dispelling dampness, a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Edema is a disease caused by external invasion and internal injury, which leads to dysfunction of lung, spleen and kidney in promoting and distributing water, resulting in water retention in the body and flooding in the skin, and causing clinical symptoms such as edema of head, face, eyelid, limbs, back and even the whole body. Modern clinical diseases include heart failure, pulmonary heart disease, cirrhotic ascites, nephrotic syndrome and lower extremity venous edema. In traditional Chinese medicine, edema is first mentioned in Zhushi Yuanhou Lun.
[0003] Edema is a common clinical symptom. Due to differences in pathogenic factors and constitution, traditional Chinese medicine divides it into yin edema and yang edema, which can be transformed or mixed. Yin edema is mainly caused by damage to spleen and kidney yang qi and abnormal water and dampness metabolism, and is most common in lower limbs. The skin of the edema area is loose and sunken, and it is difficult to recover. In severe cases, it is like mud. Yin edema is common in middle-aged and elderly patients with chronic kidney disease, heart failure and hypoproteinemia, and is mostly deficiency or deficiency and excess. Deficiency is often seen in qi deficiency and yang deficiency, and long-term illness can damage yang and affect yin. Excess is often seen in water and blood stasis. Western medicine believes that edema is a clinical symptom caused by excessive accumulation of body fluid in interstitial tissue, which causes tissue swelling. According to the cause, it can be divided into cardiac edema, renal edema, malnutrition edema and endocrine edema. Patients with nephrotic syndrome, chronic glomerulonephritis, heart failure and hypoproteinemia may have symptoms similar to yin edema.
[0004] Cirrhosis is a common progressive liver disease, and decompensation is mainly manifested as ascites, which is mainly caused by immune hepatitis, alcoholic hepatitis and viral hepatitis. Its pathogenesis is not clear, and modern medicine believes that it is related to liver and kidney function damage, high portal vein pressure, low colloid osmotic pressure and endocrine disorders. Ascites due to cirrhosis belongs to the category of "distension" and "accumulation" in traditional Chinese medicine, which is caused by liver and kidney yin deficiency and water and dampness stagnation, and should be treated by tonifying the spleen and kidney, invigorating qi and blood, nourishing yin and promoting water excretion.
[0005] Journal article ("Effect of Spleen-Kidney Tonifying and Water-Excreting Formula Combined with Traditional Chinese Medicine Acupoint Sticking and Nightly Herbal Diet on Ascites due to Cirrhosis", Wang Xiangcun et al., Henan Medical Research, 2022, No. 13) studies the therapeutic effect of spleen-kidney tonifying and water-excreting formula combined with traditional Chinese medicine acupoint sticking and nightly herbal diet on patients with ascites due to cirrhosis. It is found that the spleen-kidney tonifying and water-excreting formula can enhance the effect, inhibit liver fibrosis and promote liver function recovery, and help alleviate symptoms in patients with ascites due to cirrhosis. The spleen-kidney tonifying and water-excreting formula is composed of many traditional Chinese medicines, which has the functions of tonifying the spleen and kidney and promoting qi and water excretion, and conforms to the principle of treating ascites due to cirrhosis in traditional Chinese medicine.
[0006] Journal literature ("Clinical efficacy analysis of traditional Chinese medicine diuresis recipe combined with diuretics in the treatment of liver and gallbladder damp-heat type cirrhosis ascites", He Dandan, Heilongjiang Medical Science, April 2023) explores the clinical efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine diuresis recipe combined with diuretics in the treatment of liver and gallbladder damp-heat type cirrhosis ascites, and finds that traditional Chinese medicine diuresis recipe combined with diuretics in the treatment of liver and gallbladder damp-heat type cirrhosis ascites can significantly improve liver and kidney function, reduce ascites volume, increase 24h urine volume, and reduce abdominal circumference and body weight, with outstanding curative effect.
[0007] Journal literature ("Influence of Li Shui Rang Gan Decoction and traditional Chinese medicine umbilical application combined with warm acupuncture on liver function, urine volume and portal vein hemodynamics of patients with cirrhosis ascites", Zi Lu et al., Journal of Integrative Chinese and Western Medicine for Liver Disease, January 2021) observes the influence of Li Shui Rang Gan Decoction and traditional Chinese medicine umbilical application combined with warm acupuncture on liver function, urine volume and portal vein hemodynamics of patients with hepatitis B cirrhosis ascites, and finds that after 1 month of treatment, the total effective rate of the observation group is higher than that of the control group, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.05); the improvement degree of liver function and portal vein hemodynamics of the observation group is better than that of the control group, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.05); the abdominal circumference, body weight and ascites dark area depth of the observation group are lower than those of the control group; the 24h urine volume of the observation group is higher than that of the control group, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). The results show that Li Shui Rang Gan Decoction and traditional Chinese medicine umbilical application combined with warm acupuncture have good curative effect on patients with hepatitis B cirrhosis ascites, can significantly improve liver function, reduce ascites volume, increase 24h urine volume, and thus reduce abdominal circumference and body weight, and significantly improve the hemodynamics of the portal vein system.
[0008] It can be seen that in the treatment of edema, "eliminating and tonifying" should be used as the method, and tonifying should be given priority to, while tonifying qi, tonifying yang and nourishing yin, combined with diuresis, blood activation and stasis removal, and according to the urgency, or eliminating first and tonifying later, or eliminating and tonifying simultaneously. However, in the prior art, pure traditional Chinese medicine preparations are used for prevention and treatment of edema, and multiple treatment methods need to be combined, the treatment scheme is relatively complex, and the cost is relatively high. Since traditional Chinese medicine tastes bitter, the compliance is poor, and the treatment effect is not ideal. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a medicinal and food homologous traditional Chinese medicine formula for diuresis and dampness removal, which uses different medicinal and food homologous raw materials with diuresis and dampness removal effect, has significant diuresis and dampness removal effect on the basis of ensuring compliance.

[0059] Application Example 1
[0060] Results of rat experiment
[0061] 1. Animals: SD male rats, body weight 200±20g, certificate No. 97A046, provided by the Animal Center of Guangdong Medical College.
[0062] 2. Diuresis experiment: The medicinal and edible Chinese medicine formula of Example 1-3 and Comparative Example 1-5 was stirred, broken and dispersed to be uniform, and the fish bones were removed, and concentrated to a relative density of 1.30 at 25°C, as the drug.
[0063] SD male rats with urine volume collected within 2h accounting for more than 40% of the water volume were selected as experimental objects. 90 SD male rats were randomly divided into 9 groups as control group, Example 1-3 and Comparative Example 1-5 groups. The drug of Example 1-3 and Comparative Example 1-5 groups was administered to the above treated drug of Example 1-3 and Comparative Example 1-5 groups according to 2mL / 100g, and the control group was given physiological sodium chloride solution, and the administration was continued for 7 days. On the 7th day, the rats were fasted for 18h, and water load was given. 0.5h before administration, 30mL / kg of physiological sodium chloride solution was administered by gavage, and the lower abdomen of the rats was squeezed to empty the bladder. After the administration was completed, the rats were placed in a metabolic cage, and the urine volume of each group of rats was counted for 5h, and the results are shown in Table 1.
[0064] Table 1 Results of rat diuresis experiment
[0065] Group Urine volume (mL) Control group 4.08±1.18 Example 1 5.54±0.76** Example 2 5.42±0.71** Example 3 5.47±0.68** Comparative Example 1 4.76±0.91* Comparative Example 2 4.72±0.98* Comparative Example 3 4.63±1.03 Comparative Example 4 4.55±0.89 Comparative Example 5 4.79±1.20*
[0066] Note: * represents P<0.05 compared with the control group; ** represents P<0.01 compared with the control group.
[0067] As can be seen from Table 1, Example 1-3 can significantly increase the 5h urine volume of rats, and has a significant difference compared with the control group. By comparing Example 1 and Comparative Example 1-5, it can be seen that the composition of the medicinal and edible Chinese medicine formula has a great influence on its effect. Among them, Example 1 uses combined use of red bean and pepper nuts, which has better diuretic effect than Comparative Example 1-2 which only uses red bean or pepper nuts; Comparative Example 3 uses radix stephaniae tetrandrae instead of radix astragali, and Comparative Example 4 uses radix astragali instead of purple skin allium victorialis, which will cause the diuretic effect to deteriorate. By comparing Example 1 and Comparative Example 5, it can be seen that the type of fish also has a great influence on the diuretic effect, and in the system of the present application, crucian carp has better technical effect than carp.
[0068] Application Example 2
[0069] Clinical experiment: treatment effect of cirrhosis ascites
[0070] 1. General information and grouping: 92 patients with cirrhotic ascites, aged 32-68 years, with an average age of 48.6±4.3 years, and a disease duration of 6.9±0.2 years, were collected from June 2023 to June 2024, with half males and half females. The above patients were randomly divided into two groups (with the same gender distribution in each group), and there was no significant difference in age and disease duration between the two groups. The control group was treated with routine western medicine (furosemide tablets 20mg, spironolactone tablets 20mg, twice a day), and the example 1 group was given one dose of the water-eliminating and dampness-dispelling medicinal food homologous Chinese medicine formula of example 1, twice a day. Both groups were treated for 4 weeks.
[0071] Inclusion criteria: meet the clinical diagnostic criteria for cirrhotic ascites; family members agree to the content of this study.
[0072] Exclusion criteria: patients who withdraw from treatment; patients with other liver diseases.
[0073] 2. Observation index: 24-hour urine output and 24-hour body weight change, and ascites resolution time were observed. The total effective rate of clinical treatment was observed, and the standard was as follows: symptoms and ascites disappeared, liver function returned to normal for marked effect; symptoms and ascites were relieved, liver function was basically restored to normal for effectiveness; symptoms and ascites were not relieved, and liver function was not restored to normal for no effect. The results are shown in Tables 2-3.
