Abstract:
Objective:To systematically search the related literature of dengue syndrome in recent years, so as to understand the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome distribution of dengue fever.
Methods:China biomedical database, CNKI, VIP and Wanfang database were searched. The epidemiological studies on the TCM syndrome of dengue fever were enrolled. The first author of this study, sample size, diagnostic criteria and the syndrome differentiation were collected. SPSS 21.0 software was used to carry out frequency statistics, describe the distribution of common clinical syndromes of dengue fever, and count the number and percentage of patients corresponding to each syndrome type.
Results:A total of 12 articles were enrolled, including 2 639 patients. The number of male patients were much more than the females. Most of the patients came from Guangdong, mostly after the outbreak of dengue fever in Guangdong in 2014.The most common TCM syndrome types include both the defense and Qi phases (25.20%), damp heat repression (20.69%), blood stasis and toxin (16.37%), excess of Qi and heat (12.24%), vigorous heat at qi-blood phase (10.19%).
Conclusions:The main pathogenic factors of dengue fever are heat, humidity and toxicity. The most common syndromes are both the defense and Qi phases, damp heat repression and blood stasis and toxin.
