Study On The Correlation Between Chronic Cough Constitution And TCM Syndromes

Objective:To explore the distribution characteristics of constitution and TCM syndrome types on chronic cough,and to study the relationship between constitution and TCM syndrome, which providing a new way of thinking and reference for TCM diagnosis and treatment of chronic cough.Method:Collected 237 cases of chronic cough in patients with general information and treatment of TCM related information, and carried on the constitution questionnaire survey, using physique classification criteria and TCM syndrome differentiation typing to determine standards, and using a library of information and spss20.0 to create and statistic the income data, to explore the correlation between constitution and TCM syndrome type of chronic cough,through the data collation and analysis.Results:237 patients with chronic cough patients, there is 34 cases of normal constitution, only 14.3%, and there is 203 cases of biased constitution,85.7%.The most common in biased constitution are special intrinsic body (20.2%), YinXu body(14.8%),QiXu body(12.7%), ShiRe body (12.7%).There have no relationship between constitution and gender in the pathogenesis of chronic cough (P=0.24> 0.05),but have between constitution and age (P< 0.01):PingHe body are most common in the population under the age of 40, and YangXu body, YinXu body, TanShi body and SheRe body are over 40, moreover QiYu body is common in 30-60 years people.Howover,there have no significant different age distribution in the population are QiXu body and TeBing body.Each types of constitution has different exist in the season (P< 0.01):TeBing body has most common in spring, PingHe body,YinXu body are the most in summer and autumn, YangXu body, TanShi body are the most common in winter, QiXu body, SheRe body and QiYu body may have no apparent seasonal.There most conmons in 237 cases of chronic cough syndromes have GanHuoFanFei syndrome (19.4%), FengShengLuanJi syndrome (18.5%) and TanShiYunFei syndrome (16.5%). the incidence of each types has significant differences in the seasonal distribution (P=< 0.01):FengShengLuanJi syndrome is the most common in spring, Zaoxieshangfei syndrome, FeiYinKuiXu syndrome is common in autumn, FuGanFengHan syndrome, TanShiYunFei syndrome are most in summer and winter; GanHuoFanFei syndrome has no obvious seasonal differences; Besides,The degree of cough with syndromes has significant different distribution (P< 0.01):FuGanFengHan syndrome,ZaoXieShangFei syndrome,and TanShiYunFei syndrome are aways mild cough, WeiQiShangNi syndrome is frequently moderate cough, FengShengLuanJi syndrome, GanHuoFanFei syndrome and FeiYinKuiXu syndrome are for the more severe cough,There is a statistically significant different distribution between constitution and TCM syndrome type on chronic cough(P< 0.01):There ZaoXieShangFei syndrome and GanHuoFanFei syndrome have the most common in PingHe body.FuGanFengHan syndrome is most common in QiXu body,YangXu body, TanShi body have closely relationship with TanShiYunFei syndrome.There ZaoXieShangFei syndrome and FeiYinKuiXu syndrome have the most common in YinXu body.ShiRe body have closely relationship with TanRe YuFei syndrome,and also conmon GanHuoFanFei syndrome.QiYu body have closely relationship with GanHuoFanFei syndrome syndrome. TeBing body have closely relationship with FengShengLuanJi syndrome,and also common FeiYinKuiXu syndrome.Conclusion:there is a close relationship between constitution and TCM syndrome types on chronic cough. The type of constitution has a certain susceptibility and tendency to syndrome of chronic cough. People who have PingHe body easily have dryness in autumn, and become Zaoxieshangfei syndrome in TCM syndrome.PingHe body are also common GanHuoFanFei syndrome. People who have QiXu body easily have wind-cold in summer and winter, and become FuGanFengHan syndrome. Patients of YangXu body and TanShi body are at the onset easily in summer and winter,and become usually TanShiYunFei syndrome. Patients with YinXu body are prone to fall in the autumn, and usually become ZaoXieShangFei syndrome and FeiYinKuiXu syndrome.ShiRe body have closely relationship with TanRe YuFei syndrome,and also conmon GanHuoFanFei syndrome. The incidence without obvious seasonal.QiYu body have closely relationship with GanHuoFanFei syndrome syndrome and the incidence also without obvious seasonality. The incidence of TeBing body commonly become FengShengLuanJi syndrome in spring, and usually become FeiYinKuiXu syndrome in autumn.
