Objective:
To explore the basic syndrome related factors in patients with chronic prostatitis (CP).
Methods:
Using questionnaire to collect data of CP patients from three hospitals in Beijing, Epidata 3.02 to establish database, the uni-variate and multiple Logistic regression analysis was performed with SPSS 17.0 software to determine the basic syndrome related factors.
Results:
Engagement in brainwork was the main risk factor for suffering from dampness-heat downward-flow syndrome; CP of type IIIA (classified by Western medicine), employed on brainwork or physical work, and working time < or =8 h were risk factors for suffering from qi-stagnancy and blood-stasis syndrome; illness duration >12 months, uncomfortable habitat, dislike for irritative beverages and poor digestive function were risk factors for Gan-qi stagnation syndrome; and aging, decreased burden from work, winter onset of the illness were those for Shen-yang deficiency syndrome.
Conclusions:
The basic syndrome related factors in patients with CP are age of patient, duration and type of illness, occupational type, daily working time, burden from work, onset season of illness, living amenity, state of digestion, and relish for irritative beverage.
