Abstract
Chronic glomerulonephritis involves multiple organs. It has a variety of clinical manifestations and is the major cause of progression to end-stage renal disease in patients with kidney disease. Professor Lei Genping believes that the treatment of this disease in Chinese medicine should be based on the deficiency and reality characteristics of the disease mechanism, distinguishing the priorities and identifying the strengths and weaknesses of the internal organs, as well as advocating the integration of Chinese and western medicine at the right time and in the right manner, in order to achieve fundamental results.
