To know the health-promoting lifestyle situation of primary and secondary school teachers in Guangzhou;3.To study the correlation between TCM constitution and health promoting lifestyle of primary and secondary school teachers in Guangzhou, in order to provide the basis for Chinese medicine changing and poor physical conditioning lifestyle intervention.MethodWe did a cross-sectional epidemiological survey. We contracted the city’s Department of Education of Guangzhou Liwan district, Luogang district,Zengcheng district, got their support and cooperation to investigate the primary and secondary school teachers in these three areas.They were surveyed by using questionnaires which including general," TCM constitution Scale "(CCMQ) as well as " health-promoting lifestyle Scale "(HPLP-Ⅱ). Introduction to the respondents before the research was needed, including the purpose and meaning of our survey, voluntary, confidentiality and informed consent.Every respondents used their real name to complete the questionnaire.Our team carefully reviewed all the questionnaires, excluded blank form, fill and other unqualified incomplete questionnaires. After completion of the screening questionnaire, Epidata3.1software was used to collect the data, and then I applid SPSS17.0statistical analysis software to analyze data.Results1.GeneralThe average age of the8112respondents was (37.38±7.77) years old.2823people were male, accounting for34.8%of the total, with average age (39.81±8.59) years old. There were5289women, accounting for65.2%of the overall, with average (36.08±6.96) years old. The ratio of male to female is1:1.87.2. Distribution and Analysis of TCM Constitution8112cases were involved in the study.2182people were peace constitution, accounting for26.9%of the general population. Biased constitution was5930, accounting for73.1%of the overall population. The top four kinds of biased constitution were qi-xu, qi-yu, yang-xu and tan-shi. In male, there were qi-xu, tan-shi, shi-re, qi-yu. In women, there were qi-xu, yang-xu, qi-yu, xue-yu. In5930cases of biased constitution crowd, there are1071simply biased constitution(18.1%), while4859composite biased constitution(81.9%). There were3253cases of simple constitution, the top5in turn were peace constiution, Qi-xu, yang-xu, shi-re, qi-yu. There were significant differences (P<0.05) between men and women in the9kinds of constitutions distribution. There were more peace constitution in men than women, while less biased constitution than women.3.Distribution and Analysis of health-promoting lifestyleThe overall population health promoting lifestyles average score was (2.38±0.42) points, which was in the normal state. The self-realization score (2.70±0.60) was the highest, followed by relationships (2.59±0.50) points, stress management (2.53±0.53) points, nutrition (2.34±0.50) points, exercise (2.10±0.60) points, responsibility for health score (2.01±0.48) minimum. In the health-promoting lifestyle52entries average score sort, the top ten entries are mostly self-realization dimension, while last ten entries are mostly health responsibility dimension. The male population and female population health promoting lifestyle scores and scores of differences in the statistical analysis, the results showed that health-promoting lifestyle score, scores of self-realization, stress management, scoring two groups had no significant difference (P>0.05), exercise, nutrition, relationships with significant differences in scores (P<0.05), male population exercise score higher than the female population, nutrition and interpersonal score lower than the female population. The overall population health promoting lifestyle and a good level of general proportion of the majority. Promote healthy populations of different gender differences (2=14.571, P=0.002) grade distribution lifestyle.4.TCM constitution and health promoting lifestyleHealth surveyed the crowd and the overall peace constitution constitution biased population total score as well as promoting lifestyle dimension scores showed significant differences (P<0.005), gentleness score higher than the general population biased constitution crowd. Subsequently, respectively gentleness and qi deficiency, qi quality and gentleness, gentleness and yang nature, gentleness and phlegm, and blood stasis gentleness, gentleness and humid nature, gentleness and yin deficiency, gentleness and special intrinsic quality of health-promoting lifestyle differences in scores and scores of t-test analysis, the results showed that the gentleness of the total score and each score than other physical dimensions, the difference also has a significant (P<0.005). Using chi-square test for peace constitution and biased physical health promoting lifestyles level differences crowd analyze the distribution level the difference was significant (χ2=114.087, P=0.000), health-promoting lifestyle grade gifted population accounted for peace constitution large proportion. Using Forward Logistic regression analysis showed that self-actualization, exercise, stress management and biased constitution, Qi deficiency, yang, yin deficiency, phlegm, damp-heat, blood stasis, qi quality, especially the quality of both intrinsic There was a negative correlation between the occurrence of these protective factors constitution, and the higher the score of these three dimensions, the less the likelihood of these types of biased constitution.ConclusionsThere is relevant between TCM constitution and health promotion lifestyle. which self-realization, exercise, stress management is a protective factor for peace constitution occurred. We can improve the three scores to reduce the possibility of biased constitution Through the promotion of healthy lifestyles, people can change their constitution, inorder to through physical medicine to restore balance to further prevent achieveing sub-health and disease. |
