摘　　要：目的探讨支气管哮喘的中医证候分类规律。方法根据临床流行病调查所得的430例支气管哮喘四诊信息资料,构建结构方程模型进行统计分析。结果结构方程模型共得出5个证候分类,各证类与疾病关联程度各异,与哮喘关联程度呈正相关;反应哮喘的主要基础信息为气喘、胸闷、喉中痰鸣。结论研究所得的支气管哮喘证候分类基本符合中医临床实际,运用结构方程模型方法分析支气管哮喘中医证候分类是可行的。Objective To explore the laws of traditional Chinese medicine（ TCM） syndromes in bronchial asthma. Methods According to the information collected from 430 asthmatic patients by the method of clinical epidemiological investigation,we used structural equation model for statistical analysis. Results Five TCM syndromes of bronchial asthma were found and they have different relation to the disease. The major symptoms of asthma included pant,choking sensation in chest,throat in the sputum and stridor with sputum. Conclusion Not only the syndrome classification is reasonable,but the result conforms to TCM clinical practice. It indicated that the analysis method of structural equation model was suitable for the research on TCM classification of bronchial asthma.
