A Study of Integrated Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Intervention for Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy Rehabilitation: Based on the Spleen-Kidney Correlation Theory

Abstract

This study thoroughly explores the practical application value and efficacy of a comprehensive treatment regimen based on the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) theory of "Spleen-Kidney Correlation" in the rehabilitation process of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). By systematically reviewing the historical origins, core connotations, and significant position of the "Spleen-Kidney Correlation" theory within the TCM theoretical framework, and integrating modern medical understanding of the pathogenesis of DPN, this study further analyzes the pathological characteristics of the disease from a TCM perspective. It proposes a comprehensive treatment strategy primarily guided by the principles of strengthening the spleen and kidney, as well as promoting collateral circulation and activating blood flow.

During the implementation of the study, we rigorously designed a scientific research framework, established clear inclusion and exclusion criteria for study subjects, and adopted a randomized controlled trial method to ensure the reliability and comparability of the data. By systematically observing the physiological indicators, symptom improvement, and changes in quality of life of patients after receiving the comprehensive Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) treatment regimen, we comprehensively evaluated the clinical efficacy of this protocol.
