Abstract:Objective To explore the correlation between risk factors of transient ischemic attack (TIA) and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) constitution.Methods One hundred and twenty patients with TIA from January 2014 to June 2016 were selected as the treat ment group,and 120 patients with non stroke were selected as the control group at the same time.Chi-square test and Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the difference of TCM constitution and risk factors between two groups.Results Smoking,alcoholism,history of hypertension,history of coronary heart disease,history of diabetes mellitus,dyslipidemia,hyperuricemia,hyperuricemia,overweight/obesity,sputum in treatment group were significantly higher than that in control group (P < 0.05),and the ratio of phlegm-dampness constitution,qi-deficiency constitution,yin-deficiency constitution,and blood stasis constitution were higher,but yang deficiency constitution,yin-yang harmony constitution,and qi-stagnation constitution were lower (P <0.05).According to the multiple conditional logistic regression model,smoking,overweight/obesity,history of hypertension,history of diabetes,history of coronary heart disease,history of dyslipidemia,sleep apnea,hyperhomocysteinemia,phlegm-dampness constitution,yin deficiency constitution,and blood stasis constitution were the risk factors of TIA,while the yin-yang harmony constitution was protecting factor.Conclusion TIA is closely related to TCM constitution.It can be used to prevnt stroke based on TCM constitution.
