Formation and Development of the Theoretical System of TCM Nephrology


The formation and development of the theoretical system of traditional Chinese medicine nephrology, like the formation of traditional Chinese medicine theory, are gradually developed and improved through continuous medical practice.

The explanation of the kidney in traditional Chinese medicine medical texts throughout history is its fundamental source, but for a long time, it was only scattered and did not form a systematic theoretical system. It was not until the earliest surviving monograph on nephrology, "Yi Guan" by Zhao Yangkui in the Ming Dynasty, that the embryonic form of this theoretical system was first revealed. Afterwards, there were gradually more specialized discussions on the kidney, and with the continuous clinical practice of numerous medical practitioners, it became increasingly rich. After the liberation, the vast number of traditional Chinese medicine and integrated Chinese and Western kidney disease workers diligently pursued ancient teachings, explored innovation, and emphasized the promotion of the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine, gradually improving and maturing this theoretical system. Traditional Chinese medicine nephrology has undergone comprehensive development from basic theory to clinical practice and experimental research, gradually forming a complete theoretical system of traditional Chinese medicine nephrology.
