Clinical effects of a Chinese herbal medicine on patients with chronic renal failure

This study assessed the impact of experienced prescription by Chinese medical master Zou Yanqin on chronic renal failure (CRF) patients. One hundred and twenty CRF patients admitted in Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine from January 2021 to December 2022 were randomly separated into a control group (CG) and a study group (SG). The CG accepted conventional therapy while the SG accepted treatment with Zou Yanqin prescription in addition to conventional treatment. The results showed that relative to CG, the SG had better total treatment effectiveness rate, lower serum creatinine as well as blood urea nitrogen levels, higher creatinine clearance rate, lower levels of inflammatory markers, higher serum albumin, hemoglobin and transferrin levels and lower incidence of adverse reactions. We conclude that experienced prescription by Chinese medical master Zou Yanqin can enhance the clinical treatment effect of conventional treatment, inhibit the inflammation, improve the nutritional status, and is safe for CRF patients.
