Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the traditional Chinese medical (TCM) constitution status of young and middle-aged residents and to analyze related influencing factors.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted to obtain data of 1 082 young and middle-aged residents in China from April to May 2019. The general characteristic, habits, emotional status and TCM constitution types of young and middle-aged residents were been collected.Results:The number of normal constitution types was 415(38.35%, 415/1 082), and the number of biased constitution types was 667(61.65%, 667/1 082) which was dominated by qi-deficiency constitution (16.70%, 344/2 060), yang-deficiency constitution (16.17%, 333/2 060) and damp-heat constitution (15.97%, 329/2 060). The Logistic regression analysis showed that the dietary regularity, taking vigorous exercise and taking moderate exercise were the protective factors of the biased constitution types of young and middle-aged residents( OR values were 0.624, 0.704, 0.704, all P<0.05), while the female, meat-based diet, anxiety and depression were the risk factors of the biased constitution types of young and middle-aged residents( OR values were 2.009-2.568, all P<0.01). Conclusions:The biased constitution is common among young and middle-aged residents. The risk factors of biased constitution are unhealthy lifestyle, anxiety and depression,which suggest the community to develop actively interventions to adjust the lifestyle and strengthen the maintenance of mental health of young and middle-aged residents.
