Abstract:
Objective:To explore the TCM syndromes and risk factors of patients with anxiety and/or depression after coronary revascularization through real-world data mining based on the national pilot project of Chinese and Western medicine clinical collaboration for major difficult diseases; To provide clinical evidence and guide practice for the diagnosis and treatment of bicardiac diseases after coronary revascularization.Methods:A retrospective multi-center clinical study was conducted. From September 2018 to December 2019, 577 patients who underwent successful percutaneous coronary intervention in the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine of Affiliated Hospital of Liaoning University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Department of Cardiovascular Medicine of the People's Hospital of Liaoning Province were enrolled using the collaborative platform system of TCM and Western Medicine Diagnosis and follow-up for coronary disease. Clinical data database was established. Baseline data, TCM syndrome types and elements, coronary angiography and stent implantation status, relevant disease history, Hamilton Anxiety and Depression Scale, etc. were collected. A combination of postoperative phone calls and outpatient visits was performed, with follow-up every 3 months for a total of 1 year. The TCM treatment patterns and risk factors of patients with anxiety and depression after coronary artery revascularization surgery were analyzed and explored.Results:A total of 577 patients were enrolled and 561 patients were followed up. Age distribution: The age of males and females undergoing coronary revascularization due to ACS was (61.80±11.00) years and (68.37±10.13) years, with no statistical significance between groups ( P>0.05), but the age of onset in males tended to be earlier than in females. The distribution pattern of TCM syndrome elements showed that the most deficiency syndrome elements were qi deficiency (61.75%, 176/285), followed by yin deficiency (28.77%, 82/285). The most common excessive symptom was blood stasis (39.13%, 108/276), and the other syndromes were phlegm turbidity (36.23%, 100/276) and qi depression (20.29%, 56/276), etc. The distribution of TCM syndrome types was as follows: in the population with anxiety and depression state of coronary revascularization, the TCM syndrome types with frequency higher than 10% were successively phlegm and blood stasis with depression syndrome, qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome, heart, gallbladder and qi deficiency and qi-yin deficiency with blood stasis syndrome. Among the people without anxiety and depression, the TCM syndromes with a frequency higher than 10% were heart blood stasis syndrome and qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome, with statistical significance ( χ2=12.07, P<0.01). Correlation analysis showed that the number of stents, and LDL-C were positive correlated with anxiety and depression( r values were 0.107, 0.118,respectively, P<0.05), and the uric acid was negative correlation ( r=-0.127, P=0.011). Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression showed the age [ RR (95% CI)=1.052 (1.012-1.094), P=0.010] and diabetes mellitus [ RR (95% CI)=4.561 (1.028-20.238), P=0.046] at the sixth month of treatment. Conclusions:The age of acute coronary syndrome and coronary revascularization is mainly concentrated in patients aged 60-70 years, and male patients tend to have earlier onset than female patients, and the risk of coronary heart disease is relatively high. Qi-deficiency syndrome accounts for the highest proportion, and the most excessive syndrome is blood stasis syndrome. The TCM syndromes with high frequency of anxiety and depression are phlegm and blood stasis with depression syndrome and qi-yin deficiency with blood stasis syndrome. The number of stents implanted and low density lipoprotein cholesterol are positively correlated with postoperative anxiety and depression. Age and diabetes history are independent risk factors for end-point events at about 6 months after treatment.
