Integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine diagnosis and treatment of liver cirrhosis with diabetes / 临床肝胆病杂志

ABSTRACT

Hepatogenous diabetes (HD) is a common complication of liver cirrhosis and can reduce survival rate and increase the risk of other complications. It differs from type 2 diabetes in terms of etiology, pathogenesis, and diagnostic methods. There are currently no guidelines for HD treatment in China and globally. Although the understanding of HD in traditional Chinese medicine is gradually deepened, no consensus has been reached on its etiology, pathogenesis, and syndrome differentiation. This article reviews the traditional Chinese and Western medicine research on HD in recent years, so as to provide a reference for clinicians to develop individualized traditional Chinese and Western medicine diagnosis and treatment strategies.
