Abstract:
Objective To analyze the geographical distribution characteristics of TCM syndromes of coronary heart disease in the elderly based on the literature;To summarize the characteristics of TCM syndromes of coronary heart disease patients in different geographical areas;To provide evidence-based data for the standardization of TCM syndromes and syndrome differentiation treatment of coronary heart disease in the elderly.Methods Literature on TCM syndrome of coronary heart disease in the elderly was retrieved from CNKI,Wanfang Data,VIP,CBM and PubMed,from the establishment of each database to December 31,2024.The common TCM syndrome types,syndrome frequency and regional distribution of coronary heart disease in the elderly were statistically analyzed.Results Forty articles were included,with a total number of 6 447 cases and a male-to-female ratio of 1.1∶1.The top 5 highest percentage of co-morbidities of coronary artery disease in the elderly were 1 308 cases of hypertension(24.11%),1 022 cases of type 2 diabetes mellitus(18.84%),787 cases of respiratory disease(14.51%),517 cases of heart failure(9.53%),and 348 cases of hyperlipidemia(6.41%).The top 5 TCM syndromes in elderly patients with coronary heart disease included 779 cases of qi deficiency and blood stasis(12.08%),692 cases of qi-yin deficiency(10.73%),367 cases of phlegm-blood stasis(5.69%),363 cases of heart blood stagnant blockade(5.63%),and 343 cases of qi stagnation and blood stasis(5.32%).The distribution of TCM syndromes in different regions was characterized by qi deficiency,blood stasis and phlegm stasis in the northeast;qi deficiency,blood stasis and qi yin deficiency in the north;qi deficiency,blood stasis and phlegm internal obstruction in the east;qi and yin deficiency and heart blood stasis in the central;qi deficiency,blood stasis and phlegm stasis in the south;phlegm and yin paralysis obstruction,qi and yin deficiency in the southwest;stasis blockage of the cardiac veins,qi yin deficiency in the northwest.The overall trend was that the number of syndromes in the north was higher than that in the south;the number of syndromes in the east,centre and west was decreasing.The distribution of yin deficiency syndrome was highest in the southwest(23.33%)and lowest in the east(10.93%);yang deficiency syndrome was highest in the southwest(13.30%)and lowest in the central(3.32%);qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome was highest in the northeast(32.89%)and lowest in the northwest(7.24%);the distribution of qi-yin deficiency was highest in the southwest(23.33%)and lowest in the east(7.22%);the distribution of phlegm and stasis syndrome was highest in the northeast(25.67%)and lowest in the east(1.69%).The overall generalization was that deficiency,stasis and phlegm were the main syndrome factors.Conclusion The main symptoms of coronary heart disease in the elderly manifest as a mixture of deficiency and excess,qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome is the most syndrome type of coronary heart disease in the elderly and is mainly distributed in the northeast.The distribution of TCM syndromes has regional characteristics.
