    Author: Wei L, Ye R, Luan T, Lu R, Chen B.
    Journal: J Tradit Chin Med; 2002 Jun; 22(2):83-6. PubMed ID: 12125499.
    Abstract:
    Fifty-seven cases of nephrotic syndrome were treated with TCM decoctions as accessory treatment for prednisone and cyclophosphamide, and the effects were observed in a follow-up period of 5-15 years. The long-term complete remission rate of 68.4% and recurrence rate of 26.3% in the treatment group were respectively higher and lower than those in the control group (P < 0.01, and P < 0.01). The results suggested that the TCM decoctions were very helpful in treating this condition.
