| ObjectiveTo study TCM constitutional classification in patients with CSC, and discuss the relationship between the pathology of CSC and age, gender, refractive status, personal character, diet habits,climate, in order to provide a clinic protocol for preventing and treating CSC with the investigation of TCM constitution adjust.MethodsThe52CSC patients aged from25to50, who were treated in the hospital of Chinese Traditional Medicine of Sichuan province from April2012to March2013, were collected and another52normal people were divided to normal control group, meanwhile CSC basic documents and Classification of Constitution in TCM in questionnaire were recorded. The relationship between pathology of CSC and the age, gender, refractive status, character, diet habits and climate was analysed, and the relevancy between CSC’s onset age, gender, pathology of CSC, climate also were discussed; All data was deal and analysed with the Excel database and Spss13.0software.Results1. Among52CSC patients,40of them suffered from a single eye (77%,40/52),12of them suffered from a couple of eye (23%12/52).2. The morbidity age of CSC showed statistics significance between two genders (P=0.009<0.05). The average age was38years old in male, while the average age was47years old in female.3. The type of acute first onset was dominant in both genders.4. Most of the CSC patients suffered in the spring and autumn seasons, there was a close relationship between climate change and the onset of disease.5. The vision showed a significant difference (P=0.003<0.05) between CSC patients and the control group, which was analysed by Fisher s Exact Test. Therefore, it was concluded that the naked eye vision between0.8-1.2was an important risk factor in CSC, and myopia might be a protective factor. 6. In various environmental factors, the primarily element in the CSC’s occurrence was lack of sleep. The existence of mental stress, overuse of eyesight, alcohol abuse, smoking and welding career was significantly frequent in CSC.7. Both the patients and the control group, the primarily diet habits were sweet and spicy, CSC patients (sweet15/5228.8%spicy21/5240.3%), the control group (sweet10/5219.2%spicy19/5236.5%),their preference of the spicy food might be the cause of living in Sichuan. The author speculated that preference of food may be ignored in CSC’s occurrence.8. The TCM constitutional types of CSC in different groups showed a statistics significance(P<0.05),CSC patients(qi yu constitution34.6%,18/52;tan shi constitution19.2,10/52).The study revealed that the constitutional types of qi yu and tan shi were the main ones in CSC patients.On the contra, the constitutional type of Deficiency of qi, Deficiency of yang, Deficiency of yin, natural balance were dominant in the control group.9. The personal character between CSC patients and the control group, also showed a statistics significance (P<0.05).Conclusion1. The constitutional type of qi yu and tan shi are the main types in CSC patients.2. The personal character is one of the etiological factors, in which the irritable one might promote the CSC’s occurrence.3. About morbidity season, most of the CSC patients’symptoms occur in the spring and autumn seasons.4.There is a close relevency between the occurrence of CSC and lack of sleep, eyes overuse, mental stress, alcohol abuse,smoking, welding career.5. The age of CSC’s onset in female is older than which in male.6. Emmetropia may be one of the risk factors to CSC’s occurrence.7. Special preference of food may be ignored in CSC’s occurrence.8. There is a close relationship between the occurrence of CSC and age, gender, climate change, environmental factor, TCM constitution. |
