Abstract
|
Chronic metabolic diseases are major and high-incidence diseases in humans, the issue of "early screening, early warning, and early prevention" need to be solved urgently. A series of studies on the phlegm-dampness constitution have been conducted, which established the identification standard, developed the macro and micro identification technologies, and performed animal experimental and clinical trial studies of metabolic diseases with a novel approach of constitution-adjustment in Chinese medicine. This series of studies achieve the transformation from the individual screening to a large-scale population screening; from the prevention of a single disease to a type of diseases, from the mode of "same treatment for different diseases" to "same prevention for different diseases". These studies drive the barrier of disease prevention and control to move forward to the pre-clinical stage, and provide theoretical guidance and technical support for the prevention and control of chronic metabolic disease in a group manner. |
