| Abstract | Objective: This study is to investigate the constitution, mucosal inflammation, Chinese medicine syndrome types, clinical and pathological characteristics of patients with IgA nephropathy (IgA N)and to analysis their relationships in order to provide the scientfic basis and new ideas for the management of IgAN. Methods: Through the cross sectional and retrospective study, we investigated 262 patients with IgAN in the Hospital of Guangdong provincical TCM hospital and the Third Hospital of Peking Universitiy between January 2011 and January 2014. We collected the Chinese medicine syndrome types, clinical and pathological data, the constitution questionnaire and the mucosal inflammation. Results: The constitution of yin-yang harmony was the most common(40.5%), followed by qideficiency(31.3%). Upper respiratory infection, chronic periodontitis, scytitis were very common in patients with IgAN. Qi deficiency of spleen and kidney were the common type: 69.1%. Asymptomatic abnormal urinalysis(50.4% of the patients)and CKD 1(48.5%)were the most common clinical Presentation. HaasD was the most common pathological presentation(47.3%). Patients with qi deficiency of spleen and kidney and the constitution of yin-yang harmony presented with more nonmucosal inflammation, more CKD3-4, higher than the latter in the level of serum creatinine, urea nitrogen, serum CH50 and lower in GFR clinically as compared to those patients with the constitution of qi deficiency. Conclusions: IgAN onsets silently and asymptomatic abnormal urinalysis was the most common clinical type. Frequent upper respiratory infection, chronic periodontitis and recurrent scytitis were common in patients with IgAN. IgAN patients with qi deficiency of spleen and kidney and the constitution of yin-yang harmony had higher serum CH50 level, low incidence of mucosal inflammation, increased risk of declined renal function and more sever renal pathlogical changes than that of patients with qi deficiency of spleen and kidney and the constitution of qi deficiency. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
