The Mechanism of "Treating Different Diseases with the Same Treatment" by Qiangji Jianpi Decoction in Ankylosing Spondylitis Combined with Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Comprehensive Analysis of Multiple Methods.

Based on the principle of "treating different diseases with the same method" in traditional Chinese medicine theory, we explored the intricate mechanisms through which QJJP decoction addresses AS and IBD comorbidity. Our research spotlighted the pivotal role of the IFNG gene. IFNG emerges not only as a key therapeutic target but also assumes significance as a potential diagnostic biomarker through its genetic underpinnings. This investigation establishes a solid base for subsequent experimental inquiries. Our findings introduce novel approaches for incorporating traditional Chinese medicine into the treatment of AS-IBD comorbidity, setting the stage for groundbreaking research directions.
