| Summary: | Osteoporosis is a metabolic bone disease characterized by age-related loss of bone mass, destruction of bone microstructure, increased bone brittleness and susceptibility to fracture. The disease often occurs in postmenopausal women and middle-aged and elderly men, with insidious onset, most patients were diagnosed after fracture, resulting in a lot of consumption of medical resources. Based on the basic theories such as "kidney governing bone" and "kidney deficiency", professor YAO Xinmiao of The Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University creatively put forward the pathogenic theory of "flaccidity caused by deficiency and congestion" of OP, which holds that the pathogenesis of OP is the combination of deficiency and blood stasis, mixed with impotence. Under the guidance of this theory, it is considered that the "method of tonifying kidney, invigorating spleen and activating blood circulation" should be adopted to treat patients with OP based on syndrome differentiation, which mainly includes three aspects, such as simultaneous treatment of deficiency and blood stasis; tonifying the kidney and invigorating the spleen; putting emphasis on both sinew and bone. The research team carried out a series of clinical and basic studies to explain the scientific connotation of OP rehabilitation strategy under the guidance of the theory of "flaccidity caused by deficiency and congestion" from different angles. |
