Temporal, spatial and demographic distributions characteristics of COVID-19 symptom clusters from chinese medicine perspective: a systematic cross-sectional study in China from 2019 to 2023
In summary, variations in symptom clusters and core symptoms of COVID-19 in temporal, spatial and demographic distributions in China offer a scientific rationale for the "Treatment in Accordance with Three Categories of Etiologic Factors" theory. These interesting findings prompt further investigation into CM patterns in the ICD-11, and suggest potential strategies for personalized precision treatment of COVID-19. High-quality clinical studies focusing on individual symptoms are warranted to enhance understanding of respiratory infectious diseases.
