Author(s):Yongchol Cha, Hyok Choe and Songjin Oh

Background: The burden of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is increasing worldwide. For CKD prevention, it is important to gain insight in commonly consumed foods and beverages in relation to kidney function. Objectives: The purpose of this study is to perform clinical trial on CKD 4-stage patient by mineral pulse light stimulus on KI acupoints without any drugs use. Methods: CKD 4 stage patients (male 31, female 18), was stimulated by Mineral Pulse Light Stimulator (MPLS). Stimulus acupoints; KI3, SP6, BL23. The selected acupoints were stimulated by MPLS for 50 minutes~60 minutes once a day. The same method was performed on the patients for 2 months~3 months. Results: After treatment, the general patient conditions were recovered normal and eGFR was improved to 92.33 ± 2.11 mg/min/1.72m2 from 19.42 ± 0.54 mg/min/1.73m2 without any drugs use. The efficacy rate was 81.5% (P<0.01). Conclusion: CKD 4 stage patients was treated by mineral pulse light stimulus on KI acupoints without any drugs use.
