立项依据：小儿肺炎为常见病和多发病，属中医温病学范畴。中医药治疗效果良好，须加强研究。本课题组长期开展小儿肺炎和温病学研究，在前一科学基金课题中以小儿肺炎为例，创新运用数据挖掘技术研究中医证候病机学和临床疗效评价基础，发现郁、热、痰为该病基本病机，进而提出小儿肺炎郁热辨证的假说，拟延续研究。研究内容：收集大样本、多中心小儿肺炎临床数据，运用郁热辨证与数据挖掘和Delphi法相结合，进行回顾性和前瞻性的小儿肺炎郁热辨证研究。基础及可行性：通过数据挖掘和Delphi法在中医病机学、标准化中的应用，已完成1项国家自然科学基金课题和3项中医药行业标准。完成课题9项，发表论文40余篇。创新点：首次运用数据挖掘技术和Delphi法开展小儿肺炎郁热辨证研究。意义：本课题将使小儿肺炎的数理研究更加全面和系统，并促进中医学客观化和规范化研究。同时，提高本地区小儿肺炎防治与研究水平，保障和促进社会经济发展。

Hypothesis Evidence: Childhood Pneumonia is a common and frequently-occurring disease, which is classified into the field of Warm Disease in Chinese Medicine. Chinese Medicine (TCM) has good result in it, further researchment should be encouraged. Our team carried long-term researchment on Childhood Pneumonia (CP) and Study of Warm Disease. As the previous Scientific Funding Project of CP to be an example, we innovatively used technique Data Mining for the Study of TCM Syndrome and Mechanism together the clinical treatment evaluation, discovered Stagnation, Heat and Phlegm are the basic mechanism of the illness. To carry on, we suggested theory like Heat Stagnated Syndrome Differentiation (SyD) is suitable for CP, for the deeper researchment. Method: Collect multi-centered and large number of clinical CP samples, with Heat Stagnated SyD and Data Mining together with Delphi Method, retrospective and prospective researchment of Heat Stagnated SyD in CP can be carried. Basis and Feasibility: Our team completed 1 project form National Natural Science Foundation of China, 3 Standardizations Editions for TCM industry, 9 projects and 40 more medical essays by the application of Data Mining and Delphi Method, also based on the TCM Mechanism Study and standardizations. Innovation: For the first time the use of Data Mining technique and Delphi Method on research of CP with Heat Stagnated SyD. Significance: Mathematical Research of CP could be more systematic and completed, which is benefit for Chinese Medicine researches to be more standardized and objective. Meanwhile, the level of prevention and treatment of Childhood Pneumonia in local area could be raised, so to enhance and protect the economy development.
