ClinConnect Summary

The Dampness Syndrome of Chinese Medicine Cohort Study is a research trial aimed at understanding a specific health condition known as "dampness syndrome" in traditional Chinese medicine. The study will involve a large group of people over several years to see how this syndrome is related to various chronic diseases such as cancer, dementia, and metabolic disorders. Researchers hope that by collecting biological information from participants, they can discover new ways to treat these illnesses.

To participate, you need to be between the ages of 30 and 79, live in the area you’re registered in, and be willing to provide your health information and give consent. It's important that you don't have any mental illnesses or related health issues that would affect your ability to communicate. If you join the study, you can expect regular follow-up visits where your health information will be collected over time. Your involvement could help improve treatment options for chronic diseases in the future!
