600名研究生中医体质类型与BMI指数、生活方式的相关性研究*

目的 了解研究生的中医体质类型、分布状况及相关性规律，探索改善研究生体质的方法和途径，针对性给予中医药调养方法与健康干预、管理方案，以期提高研究生健康水平。方法 通过发放《中医体质分类与判定表》，调查分析600名研究生的体质类型分布情况，并从BMI指数、饮食习惯、运动情况、睡眠作息4个方面进行与中医体质的相关性研究。结果 研究人群以平和质为主，病理体质以阳虚质和气虚质为主，BMI指数高与痰湿体质之间存在相关性（P＜0.01），饮食辛辣与痰湿、湿热、阴虚体质之间存在相关性（P＜0.01），运动缺乏与气虚体质之间存在相关性（P＜0.01），睡眠作息不规律与阳虚、痰湿、气虚体质之间存在相关性（P＜0.01）。结论 本次研究发现了研究生人群中医体质类型与BMI指数、生活方式的相关性，从而为该人群制定中医药调养方法与健康干预、管理有着一定的指导意义。

A Study on the Correlation between Constitution Types and BMI Index and Life Style of 600 Postgraduates in Traditional Chinese Medicine

Objective To understand the types, distribution and correlation of postgraduates'' constitution of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM), explore the methods and approaches to improve the postgraduates'' constitution, and give TCM recuperation methods, health intervention and management programs in order to improve the postgraduates'' health level. Methods The constitution types of 600 postgraduates were investigated and analyzed by issuing the Classification and Judgment Table of Traditional Chinese Medicine Constitutions, and the correlation between the constitution types and the constitution of TCM was studied from four aspects: BMI, dietary habits, exercise, sleep schedule and rest. Results The subjects were mainly composed of calmness, and the pathological constitutions were composed of Yang-deficiency and Qi-deficiency. There was a correlation between high BMI and phlegm-dampness constitution(P<0.01), between spicy diet and phlegm-dampness, damp-heat and Yin-deficiency constitution(P<0.01), and between lack of exercise and Qi-deficiency constitution(P<0.01). There was a correlation between irregular sleep schedule and constitution of Yang deficiency, phlegm dampness and Qi deficiency (P<0.01). Conclusion This study has found the correlation between TCM constitution type and BMI and life style among graduate students, and thus has certain guiding significance in developing TCM recuperation methods, health intervention and management for this population.
