Studies on short stature in Chinese and western medicine and the prospects
Short stature is affected by many congenital and acquired environmental factors,which involves every stage from pregnancy to adolescence.From the perspective of integrated Chinese and western medicine,this article systematically summarizes the definition and epidemiological features of short stature in clinical practice,as well as its diagnosis and treatment strategies in Chinese and western medicine.It is emphasized that a comprehensive intervention should be performed in order to scientifically cope with the issues on children's growth and development,especially short stature,which includes life style adjustment,nutritional regulation,exercise and sleep management.Researches have shown that the integrated Chinese and western medicine therapy can not only increase the growth rate of children's height effectively,but also adjust the constitution of children in a comprehensive way,which improves the general health level of children.This article aims to provide theoretical support and practical reference for future clinical management of short stature and not-up-to-standard stature.
