Patient's question:
Beijing Tietan Nephropathy Hospital My wife was diagnosed with nephropathy two years ago. She has been treated in local hospitals, but there has been no significant improvement. Recently, I want to take her to Beijing for a check-up. I heard from a friend that Beijing Tietan Nephropathy Hospital has good results. Today, I came here to consult about what the treatment plan is at Beijing Tietan Nephropathy Hospital?Doctor's answer:
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has become a relatively common disease in clinical practice today. Many people do not pay enough attention to treatment, which leads to great suffering and inconvenience for themselves. Renal disease experts have introduced that the current treatment of kidney disease primarily adopts an integrated diagnosis and treatment plan combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine. Below, we provide a detailed introduction:### I. Characteristics of Renal Diseases Treated by Hospital Group
As the largest renal hospital group in the country, Hospital Group has treated renal diseases with the following characteristics in recent years:
- Patients come from all over the country
- Over 95% of patients have chronic kidney disease, with complex and severe conditions, and the course of the disease is prolonged and difficult to cure
- Most patients have been treated locally or in other hospitals
- A majority of patients are repeat patients
- A significant number of patients have been inappropriately treated with glucocorticoids and cytotoxic drugs before admission
Analyzing these conditions, we believe that the main factors or causes of renal disease are immune dysfunction. The key issues leading to severe, recurrent, and worsening conditions are delayed detection, late diagnosis, and inappropriate medication.
To address this, we have developed an integrated treatment approach combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine based on the theory of yin-yang and the five elements in traditional Chinese medicine, as well as the holistic concept, combined with modern medical immunological balance theory. We have timely applied the latest research findings on renal diseases to propose a natural immune balance system, emphasizing early detection and rational treatment to regulate immunity and balance yin-yang throughout the process. This has achieved better therapeutic effects and significantly reduced the recurrence of renal diseases.
### II. What is the Natural Immune Balance System?
The Natural Immune Balance System is a unique renal disease treatment system developed by a team of over 100 renal disease experts from Hospital Group through collaborative research and clinical practice over 20 years. Its main contents are as follows:
#### (1) Theoretical Basis
Guided by the theory of yin-yang and the five elements, the holistic concept, and meridian theory in traditional Chinese medicine, combined with modern immunological balance theory, it emphasizes the combination of the four diagnostic methods and syndrome differentiation for treatment. It adopts methods such as reinforcing the healthy and expelling the pathogenic, activating blood circulation to remove stasis, dredging meridians, detoxifying, external treatment for internal diseases, and bidirectional regulation of immune status. This promotes the function of the reticuloendothelial system, clears inflammatory mediators, restores effective renal circulation, counteracts the side effects of Western medicine, and ultimately improves clinical symptoms of renal disease, reduces glomerular inflammation, alleviates or clears urinary abnormalities (proteinuria or hematuria), improves residual glomerular function, and delays the progression of renal failure.
#### (2) Basic Methods
1. Classic Formulas
Emphasizing the holistic concept of traditional Chinese medicine, syndrome differentiation, and treatment are the essence of TCM. Due to differences in innate constitution, living environment, and onset season, patients may present with cold, heat, deficiency, or excess conditions. Based on 20 years of clinical experience in treating renal diseases, the experts of the Natural Immune Balance System have developed a series of renal health formulas, empirical prescriptions, or syndrome differentiation-based treatments, which have achieved remarkable therapeutic effects in renal disease treatment.
2. Balanced Liquid Infusion
Emphasizing syndrome differentiation, deficiency of healthy qi and low defensive function are key mechanisms in the onset and progression of renal disease, while stagnation of dampness and blood stasis are critical links. Only by tailoring individualized treatment plans—whether focusing on reinforcing the healthy, expelling the pathogenic, or addressing both root and symptoms—can the rational use of Renal Health Balanced Liquid intravenous infusion adjust the body's qi, correct immune dysfunction, improve renal inflammation, and promote renal function recovery.
3. External Treatment for Internal Diseases
As the master of external medicine, Wu Shijiji once said, "The theory of external treatment is the same as that of internal treatment, and the herbs used are the same, with only differences in methods." Based on the theory of meridians and previous renal disease treatment experiences, the experts have developed a comprehensive external treatment method for renal disease, aiming to stimulate the body's healthy qi, detoxify, dredge meridians, and promote the smooth flow of qi and blood, greatly enhancing the body's self-healing ability and correcting metabolic disorders. This method is effective in treating various renal diseases, preventing and reducing acute and chronic complications, and has become an important part of renal disease treatment. Examples include superconducting balanced therapy, superconducting ion bath, ultrasonic light bath therapy, ultrasonic acupuncture therapy, cupping therapy for dredging meridians, and colonic dialysis. Clinical observations show that these methods effectively improve renal blood circulation, enhance metabolism, correct urinary abnormalities, and delay the progression of renal failure.
#### (3) Scope of Application
This therapy is applicable to conditions such as acute glomerulonephritis, chronic glomerulonephritis, IgA nephropathy, nephrotic syndrome, diabetic nephropathy, hypertensive nephropathy, lupus nephritis, purpura nephritis, hepatitis B-associated nephropathy, acute and chronic pyelonephritis, occult nephritis, interstitial nephritis, drug-induced renal damage, renal calculi, acute or chronic renal failure, etc.
### III. Prevention Before Illness and Prevention of Progression
The basic tenet of the Natural Immune Balance System is to prevent illness before it occurs and prevent progression once it has developed. Prevention before illness refers to taking various preventive measures to avoid disease occurrence, while prevention of progression involves early diagnosis and treatment to halt disease development and spread.
The Suwen·Four Seasons and Spirit Regulation states, "Sages do not treat diseases that have already occurred; they treat those that have not yet. They do not quell chaos; they prevent it from arising... If a disease has already formed and is then treated, or chaos has already arisen and is then quelled, it is like digging a well when thirsty or forging a spear in battle—too late."
In line with the traditional Chinese medical concept of "treating disease before it occurs," the Natural Immune Balance System places great emphasis on the prevention and diagnosis of renal diseases, advocating for mental regulation, exercise, regular living habits, and periodic health checks to reduce the incidence of renal diseases.
Traditional Chinese medicine holds that the occurrence of disease relates to both pathogenic and healthy factors. Pathogens are important conditions for disease onset, while deficiency of healthy qi is the intrinsic cause. As the ancients said, "When healthy qi is abundant, pathogens cannot invade" (Suwen·Leftovers of the Discarded), and "When pathogens gather, the body must be deficient" (Suwen·Evaluation of Heat Illness).
Modern medicine considers that most renal diseases are immune-related and closely linked to repeated infections causing renal immune damage. According to the theory of integrated Chinese and Western medicine, experts in the Natural Immune Balance System emphasize that healthy individuals should maintain a positive mood, engage in appropriate exercise, follow a balanced diet, maintain regular living habits, avoid overexertion, and thus regulate qi and blood, strengthen healthy qi, and prevent infections and renal disease onset.
Early detection and diagnosis are crucial to the Natural Immune Balance System. Recent statistics show that the incidence of renal disease in China is approximately 10%. In the early stages, most patients show no obvious symptoms, often leading to neglect. Therefore, renal disease has a strong hidden nature. Experts of the Natural Immune Balance System advocate that healthy individuals should be educated about renal disease knowledge, pay attention to common symptoms (e.g., eyelid edema, foamy urine, tea-colored urine, elevated blood pressure, oliguria, anuria, nocturia, anemia, nausea, fatigue, anorexia), undergo regular urine tests, and consider renal function and ultrasound examinations. If abnormalities are detected, timely diagnosis in a formal hospital is essential to avoid misdiagnosis.
Chronic renal failure is a severe stage of various renal diseases, often irreversible pathologically. Blood dialysis and kidney transplantation remain important treatment methods in modern medicine, imposing heavy financial and psychological burdens on patients and families. Therefore, we call on renal disease patients to seek early diagnosis and standardized treatment to delay the deterioration of renal function.
### IV. Holistic Concept and Balancing Yin-Yang
The holistic concept holds that the human body is an organic whole, with the five zang-fu organs, limbs, and bones being important components. Each part performs distinct functions, which are integral to the body's overall activity. Physiologically, they are interconnected, and pathologically, they influence each other. Pathological changes in one part can reveal the overall condition of qi, yin, and yang.
At the same time, the concept emphasizes the harmony between humans and nature. On one hand, humans live in nature, which provides essential conditions for survival. On the other hand, the natural environment constantly affects the body, which in turn adjusts to these changes. Therefore, the guiding principle of the Natural Immune Balance System is to tailor treatment to individual, environmental, and seasonal factors, adjust yin-yang, and restore dynamic balance.
### V. Regulating Spleen and Stomach, Dispelling Phlegm and Stasis, and Harmonizing and Qi Flow
The fundamental of human life activities lies in the ascending and descending, entering and exiting of qi. If these cease, life ends. The Suwen·Essentials of Six Microcosms states, "Without entering and exiting, growth, development, aging, and death cannot occur; without ascending and descending, growth, transformation, and storage cannot take place. Therefore, ascending, descending, entering, and exiting are present in all things."
In chronic renal failure, renal qi declines, qi transformation is impaired, and urination and defecation are disrupted, leading to the accumulation of phlegm, dampness, and stasis, which affect the spleen and stomach. This disrupts the ascending (clear) and descending ( turbid) functions, subsequently affecting other organs and causing a variety of complications.
Experts of the Natural Immune Balance System believe that the spleen and stomach are the hub of ascending and descending functions, while phlegm and stasis are the root causes of disease. Based on this, they have developed a series of Renal Decline Formulas, focusing on aromatic transformation of turbidity, qi regulation, blood stasis removal, and spleen and stomach regulation to assist in ascending and descending functions. When the spleen ascends and the stomach descends, qi flow is harmonized. The small intestine can then separate clear from turbid, with clear qi rising through the spleen to the upper body and turbid yin descending through the intestines. Only with strong spleen and stomach function can renal qi transformation be supported, and clinical observations show good therapeutic effects.
