Abstract:
Objective To explore syndrome and treatment law of TCM in treating pediatric pneumonia convalescence;To provide references for clinical syndrome differentiation and treatment.Methods The relevant literature about TCM in treating pediatric pneumonia convalescence was retrieved from CNKI,SinoMed,VIP,Wanfang Data and PubMed from the establishment of the databases to December 31,2024.Diagnostic basis,syndrome elements and TCM prescription information were extracted.Excel 2021 was used for frequency statistics,SPSS Modeler 18.0 was used for association rule analysis,Gephi 0.10.1 was used to complete complex network analysis,and Origin 2025 was used for data visualization.Results A total of 171 articles were included.Diagnosis basis predominantly involved symptoms,signs and course of the disease.TCM syndrome element distribution predominantly involved the lung,spleen,qi deficiency,yin deficiency,phlegm,dampness,blood stasis and heat,often presenting as a mixture of deficiency and excess patterns.A total of 98 prescriptions were collected,with high-frequency herbs primarily including tonifying and deficiency-replenishing herbs,and phlegm-resolving and antitussive herbs.The herbal properties and tastes were mainly warm,neutral,slightly cold,and sweet,bitter,pungent,primarily associated with the lung and spleen meridians.Complex network analysis identified three core patterns of syndrome-herb interactions.Conclusion The diagnosis of pediatric pneumonia convalescence relies on symptoms,signs and course of the disease as key criteria.The syndrome is often characterized by a deficiency-excess complex.Treatment should integrate the dynamic interactions among syndrome elements and adjust the balance between reinforcing healthy qi and eliminating pathogens based on the proportional weight of deficiency and excess.For deficiency patterns,it is necessary to focus on tonifying qi and nourishing yin.For concurrent syndromes or pathological factors,additional methods such as resolving phlegm,clearing heat,regulating qi,drying dampness,promoting digestion,cooling blood,and activating blood circulation may be incorporated.
