气象要素对类风湿关节炎中医证候分布的影响

目的:分析气象要素海拔(气压)、温度、湿度]对类风湿关节炎(RA)中医证候分布的影响。方法:选取类风湿关节炎中医数据中心患者1411例,分别比较地处不同温度带、湿度分区和海拔分区的中医证候分布情况。结果:①居住在暖温带的RA患者最多606例(42.95%)],暖温带、中温带和亚热带的RA患者证候分布差异具有统计学意义(P<0.05);②居住在半湿润区的RA患者最多813例(57.62%)],半湿润区、湿润区和干旱区RA患者证候分布差异具有统计学意义(P<0.05);③居住在低海拔区的RA患者最多1272例(90.15%)],低海拔区和中海拔区RA患者证候分布差异具有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论:气温、气压和湿度等气象要素均能影响RA的证候分布。

Effects of meteorological factors on the distribution of traditional Chinese medicine syndromes of rheumatoid arthritis

Objective:To analyze the effects of meteorological factors(altitude(atmospheric pressure),temperature,humidity)on the distribution of traditional Chinese medicine syndromes of rheumatoid arthritis(RA).Methods:A total of 1411 patients from RA Chinese medicine data center were selected to compare the distribution of TCM syndromes in different temperature zones,humidity zones and altitude zones.Results:①RA patients living in warm temperate zone were the most606 patients(42.95%)],and the difference in syndrome distribution of RA patients in warm temperate zone,middle temperate zone and subtropical zone was statistically significant(P<0.05).②RA living in semi-humid area were the most patients(813 patients(57.62%)],the difference in syndrome distribution of RA patients in semi-humid areas,humid areas and arid areas was statistically significant(P<0.05).③RA patients living in low altitude areas were the most1272 patients(90.15%)],the difference in the distribution of syndromes in RA patients in low-and mid-altitude areas was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion:Meteorological factors such as temperature,atmospheric pressure and humidity can affect the syndromes distribution of RA.
