特应性皮炎中医发病机理及治疗研究进展

Research Advances in the Pathogenesis and Treatment of Atopic Dermatitis from the Perspective of Traditional Chinese Medicine

摘要: 特应性皮炎是一种常见的慢性、复发性、炎症性皮肤病，严重影响患者的生活质量。当前，全球AD的发病率逐年上升，高达20%左右。中医学认为，肺脾不利、胎热遗毒、心火亢盛等与特应性皮炎的发病机理密切相关。在治疗上，中医通过内外治法相结合，在控制炎症和调节免疫方面具有显著疗效。近年来，特应性皮炎的中医病因病机及治疗策略的研究取得了显著进展。本文系统梳理了相关的研究成果，旨在为临床诊疗提供理论依据，进一步提升该病的治疗效果。

Abstract: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common chronic, relapsing, inflammatory skin disease that severely impacts patients’ quality of life. Currently, the global incidence of AD is rising annually, reaching approximately 20%. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) attributes its pathogenesis to factors such as dysfunction of the lung and spleen, prenatal heat toxin retention, and hyperactive heart fire. In treatment, TCM employs integrated internal and external therapeutic approaches, demonstrating significant efficacy in controlling inflammation and modulating immune responses. In recent years, substantial progress has been made in research on the TCM etiology, pathogenesis, and treatment strategies for AD. This article systematically reviews relevant research findings, aiming to provide a theoretical foundation for clinical diagnosis and treatment, thereby further enhancing therapeutic outcomes for this disease.
