Professor LIN Shengyou's Treatment of Radiation-Induced Lung Injury Based on the Theory of Pathogenesis Evolution / 浙江中医药大学学报

ABSTRACT

[Objective]To summarize Professor LIN Shengyou's experience in the treatment of radiation-induced lung injury based on the theory of pathogenesis evolution.[Methods]Through clinical visits,organizing medical records,studying ancient and modern literature,starting from the evolution of the disease mechanism,this paper summarizes Professor LIN's clinical experience in application of the theory of pathogenesis evolution in the treatment of radiation-induced lung injury,and provides evidence with a clinical trial.[Results]Because of the special effect of radiation on the human body,Professor LIN believes that the basic pathogenesis of radiation-induced lung injury runs through the whole time,that is,heat evil harms the lung.With the development of the disease,the pathogenesis can be divided into three stages:at the beginning,the evil is flourishing,and the heat is damaging the lung;in the middle stage,the evil causes vital Qi decline,and the heat causes Yin injury first,then the lung and kidney deficiency;over time Yin damage affects Yang,leading to Yin and Yang deficiency.In clinic doctors should grasp the basic pathogenesis,identify the present pathogenesis and deduce the potential pathogenesis.Classic formula Maxing Shigan Decoction can be selected as the basic formula of the disease,added or subtracted according to the pathogenesis of each stage.In the case,according to the law of pathogenesis evolution,Maxing Shigan Decoction was added or subtracted as the main formula,and satisfactory curative effect was obtained.[Conclusion]By differentiating the syndrome of radiation-induced lung injury through the theory of pathogenesis evolution,Professor LIN has unique insights and significant curative effect,which is worthy of further clinical promotion and research.
