Abstract: Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) treatment of liver diseases is derived from the regulation of liver function including storing blood and governing the free flow of qi,in which functional systems such as modern digestion,endocrine,and the gut-liver axis are involved,and is established on modern hepatic physiology,pathology,and etiology.To objectively reveal the characteristics and advantages of modern TCM treatment of liver diseases,we analyzed the clinical and research situation of TCM therapy for liver diseases in the last decade and collected major achievements that have been applied in clinical treatment of diseases,published in core journals,and confirmed by major scientific research programs.The results showed TCM combined with antiviral therapy can improve the clinical outcomes of chronic hepatitis B.TCM can help HBV carriers prevent disease progression.Integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine therapy for acute-on-chronic liver failure can block the deterioration induced by endotoxin.TCM has been widely applied in protecting the liver through nonspecific anti-inflammation,alleviating hepatic fibrosis,and preventing non-alcoholic fatty liver.TCM plays an important role in treating some currently untreatable liver diseases.Therefore,it is our common responsibility to inherit and develop effective principle-method-recipe-medicines and create a better medical care system.
