- Abstract: Objuective To analyze the evaluation indicators of TCM syndrome efficacy in patients with angina pectoris at a clinical research center,and to preliminarily form a pool of items to evaluate the efficacy of TCM syndromes in angina pectoris,with the aim of providing a reference for evaluating the efficacy of TCM syndromes in angina pectoris.Metods By searching the literature on the clinical efficacy of angina pectoris published from January 1,2008,to December 31,2023,in the China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),VIP database(VIP),and Wanfang database(WF),the eligible literature was sorted and summarized,and items such as syndrome type,symptoms,and physical signs were recorded one by one in Excel to establish a database.SPSS Modeler 18.0 was used to perform Bayesian network model and association rule analysis on the evaluation items.The items that met both the Bayesian network model and association rule conditions were combined to preliminarily form a pool of items to evaluate the efficacy of TCM in angina pectoris.Results A total of 94 qualified articles were included,containing 21 types of differential diagnoses,with a total frequency of 100.Except for qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome(28 times,28%),phlegm and blood stasis syndrome(14 times,14%),blood flow stasis obstruction syndrome(14 times,14%),and qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome(10 times,10%),the frequency of other syndromes was relatively low,so only the first four syndromes were data mined.There were a total of 38 types of symptoms and physical signs for clinical efficacy evaluation,with a total frequency of 599 times.A preliminary pool of items for evaluating the efficacy of TCM in four types of angina pectoris was formed:① Qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome main items included chest pain(contribution rate 0.96);secondary items included chest tightness(contribution rate 0.93),palpitations(contribution rate 0.77),dark purple(light purple)tongue or ecchymosis(contribution rate 0.77),and shortness of breath(contribution rate 0.83).② Phlegm and blood stasis syndrome main items included chest pain(contribution rate:0.94);secondary items included chest tightness(contribution rate:0.94)and palpitations(contribution rate:0.69).③ Blood flow stasis obstruction syndrome,main items include chest pain(contribution rate 0.94);secondary items include chest tightness(contribution rate 0.81),palpitations(contribution rate 0.69),purple dark(light purple)tongue or ecchymosis(contribution rate 0.94),rough pulse(contribution rate 0.81),fixed pain location,refusal to press,and aggravation at night(contribution rate 0.81).④ Qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome,main items include chest pain(contribution rate 0.92);secondary items include chest tightness(contribution rate 0.92),palpitations(contribution rate 0.83),purple dark(light purple)tongue or ecchymosis(contribution rate 0.75),rough pulse(contribution rate 0.67),costal pain(contribution rate 0.75).Conclusion The pool of evaluation indicators for the efficacy of TCM syndromes in patients with angina pectoris can provide a reference for conducting scientific and standardized evaluations of the efficacy of TCM syndromes,provide a basis for selecting core indicators,and lay the foundation for further building a core indicator set(COS).
