A Potential Mechanism of Kidney-Tonifying Herbs Treating Unexplained Recurrent Spontaneous Abortion: Clinical Evidence From the Homogeneity of Embryo Implantation and Tumor Invasion
2022 Jan 26 Frontiers in Pharmacology Zhou H, Yang Y, Deng L, Yao Y, Liao X
KTH has great potential for treating URSA. Because the maintenance of pregnancy has a high similarity with tumor invasion, the research relating to tumor mechanisms should also be followed up as it may lead to new ideas and breakthroughs for research into URSA. At the same time, embryonic and decidual cells share a high degree of cellular heterogeneity and spatial structural complexity with tumor cells, and a single cell combined with spatial omics may be the best future approach for validating KTH mechanisms.

Kidney tonic herbs may enhance bone density and reduce fracture risk in patients with primary osteoporosis.
Systematic Review Bone Density Fracture Risk Osteoporosis
This research gathered and analyzed data from 43 randomized controlled trials involving 4349 participants, selected through extensive scrutiny conducted by two researchers. The aim was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Kidney tonic herbs in the treatment of primary osteoporosis. A comprehensive search of literature across eight electronic databases was performed up to September 30, 2022. The main focus of these trials was changes in bone mineral density of the lumbar area.
The results, obtained through meta-analyses using RevMan 5.3 and Stata 16, indicated that kidney tonic herbs significantly increased bone mineral density in various anatomic sites. Examples of these are the lumbar area, femoral neck, and femoral trochanter. Moreover, the research found a decrease in fracture incidence, with no serious side effects reported. The herbs also showed superior pain relief potential. However, the impact of these herbs on fall incidence needs further exploration.

Clinical Trials
Clinical trials are research studies that involve people and are conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of new treatments or interventions, such as drugs, medical devices, or behavioural therapies.
Study Protocols
Published study protocols are detailed plans that outline the objectives, methodology, statistical analyses, and organisation of a research study that have been made publicly available for others to review and use as a reference.
