Professor WANG Shaojie， from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） that "the liver is

yin

in body and

yang

in function"， proposes that the evolution of the core pathogenesis of alcoholic liver disease can be divided into three stages. In the early stage， alcohol-induced dampness-heat damages the liver's

yin

blood， impairing qi movement. In the middle stage， toxin stagnation obstructs the liver collaterals， resulting in disharmony between body and function. In the late stage， prolonged illness affects the

yin

essence of the spleen， kidneys， and heart， leading to deficiency of essence and blood， depletion of the heart spirit， and damage to both

yin

and

yang

， which easily gives rise to complications. Clinically， physicochemical examination results are used to objectively analyze abnormalities of the

zangfu

organs and the degree of impairment of their functions， thereby strengthening patients' awareness of self-health management， identifying causes through syndrome differentiation， and accurately targeting the pathogenesis. In treatment， he advocates an approach that addresses both body and function， harmonizes

yin

and

yang

， expels toxins and removes blood stasis， supports the healthy qi and dredges collaterals， thereby ensuring sufficiency of liver blood and essence， unobstructed

qi

and blood flow， effective detoxification， and achieving remarkable therapeutic outcomes.
