Abstract
|
[Objective] To explore the Chinese medicine evidence for mild influenza A illness using latent class analysis.[Methods] Information on four consultations of patients with mild influenza A was collected,and SPSS 25.0 and Mplus 8.3 software were used to analyze the frequency of descriptive data,extract the items with greater relevance to mild influenza A by factor analysis,and then perform potential category analysis to summarize the main Chinese medicine symptoms,and perform logistic regression analysis on the factors that might affect the distribution of Chinese medicine symptoms.[Results] A total of 499 patients were included,and the frequency of symptoms,in descending order,were cough,muscle pain,fatigue,red throat,and severe headache,etc.. Twenty-two symptomatic items of high relevance to the mild symptoms of influenza A were extracted by factor analysis,and four types of traditional Chinese medicine symptom manifestation combinations were derived from the analysis of potential categories,namely,the wind-cool bundle of surface symptoms(25.1%),the wind-heat offending the wei and dampness symptoms(44.5%),the surface cold and internal heat symptoms(20%)(10.4%)[1]. Logistic regression analysis showed that with the wind-heat offending the guard and entrapping dampness syndrome as the reference,the likelihood of manifesting the wind-cold bundled surface syndrome for a disease duration of ≤ 1 day was 1.955 times higher than that of a disease duration of >2 days(OR=1.955,95%CI=1.024-3.732,P=0.042),and that the likelihood of manifesting the wind-cold bundled surface syndrome and the epidemiological-cold and internal-heat syndrome without the use of medication prior to the visit was higher than that of using antidotes prior to the visit,respectively were 0.267 times more likely(OR=0.267,95%CI=0.087-0.822,P=0.021) and 0.281 times more likely(OR=0.281,95%CI=0.081-0.975,P=0.046),respectively than those who had used antiviral medication prior to the consultation.[Conclusion] Most of the mild cases of influenza A were wind-heat against the guard and dampness syndrome,followed by wind-cold bundle surface syndrome,surface-cold and internal-heat syndrome,and wind-heat against the guard. The short course of disease is mainly due to exterior syndrome of wind-cold bundle,and the syndrome of wind-heat invading wei and dampness is the main one without antiviral drugs. |
