    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To explore Chinese medical syndrome distribution laws in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients of the Han nationality in Fuzhou city. METHODS: A questionnaire on Chinese medical syndrome was carried out in 507 patients with confirmed CHD from different regions of Fuzhou city. The correlation analyses of Chinese medical syndrome distribution laws, the Chinese medical syndrome types and complications, gender, age, the body mass index (BMI) were conducted. RESULTS: Viewed from elements of deficiency in origin or excess in superficiality, blood stasis syndrome was the most often seen syndrome in patients with CHD (accounting for 63.1%), followed by qi deficiency syndrome (accounting for 59.4%) and phlegm turbidity syndrome (accounting for 45.6%). Among syndrome types, qi deficiency blood stasis syndrome was the most often seen syndrome (accounting for 12.2%), followed by qi deficiency, blood stasis and phlegm turbidity syndrome (accounting for 9.1%), and qi deficiency and phlegm turbidity syndrome (accounting for 8.1%). The distribution of various Chinese medical syndrome types showed significant difference in different ages (P<0.05), but no obvious difference was shown in different genders, body mass index, or complications (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Blood stasis, qi deficiency, and phlegm turbidity were the basic pathogeneses of CHD patients of the Han nationality in Fuzhou city. Syndrome with intermingled blood stasis, qi deficiency, and phlegm turbidity was the main Chinese medical syndrome pattern. The combination of syndrome showed certain regularity.
