The Lungs and Kidneys coordinate to promote movement of respiration. The Lungs rule Qi and respiration, perform the function of respiration and send Qi down to the Kidneys. The Kidneys then hold the Qi down and thus control and promote inspiration.

The Yin Deficiency here means this mechanism is deficient, leading to the symptom of breathlessness on exertion.

The Lungs also send Fluids down to the Kidneys, which evaporates some of it and sends that vapor back up to the Lungs to keep them moist. A dysfunction of either Organ can impair Fluid metabolism in the body, often leading to a Deficiency of Lung Yin from lack of moisture returning to the Lungs.

This is what we see with the symptoms of dry cough, mouth and throat.

All the other symptoms are typical of Kidney Yin Deficiency: night sweats, dizziness, tinnitus, hearing difficulties, scanty urination.
