OBJECTIVES
To examine the characteristics and temporal trends of yoga, tai chi, and qigong (YTQ) use among US adults.
METHODS
Using the 2002, 2007, 2012, and 2017 National Health Interview Surveys, we examined the prevalence, patterns, and predicting factors of YTQ use by Taylor series linear regression, the Wald F χ test, and multivariable logistic regression models (n = 116 404).
RESULTS
YTQ use increased from 5.8% in 2002 to 14.5% in 2017 (P ≤ .001). Only 6.6% of YTQ users were referred by their medical doctors, and approximately one third disclosed their use of YTQ to medical professionals. Reasons for using YTQ included (1) YTQ was beneficial, (2) YTQ focused on the whole person, and (3) YTQ was natural. Acute and chronic pain, arthritis, and depression were the top 3 medical conditions for which people used YTQ the most.
CONCLUSIONS
YTQ use is increasing substantially, mainly because of its natural and holistic healing approach toward health and chronic diseases. Future studies aiming to explore how to best integrate YTQ into the current health care system are warranted.
目的
调查美国成年人瑜伽、太极和气功（YTQ）使用的特点和时间趋势。
方法
我们使用 2002 年、2007 年、2012 年和 2017 年全国健康访谈调查，通过泰勒级数线性回归、沃尔德 F χ 检验和多变量逻辑回归模型（n=116404），研究了 YTQ 使用的流行率、模式和预测因素。
结果
YTQ 使用从 2002 年的 5.8%增加到 2017 年的 14.5%（P≤0.001）。只有 6.6%的 YTQ 用户是由医生推荐的，大约三分之一的人向医疗专业人员披露了他们使用 YTQ 的情况。使用 YTQ 的原因包括：（1）YTQ 有益，（2）YTQ 关注整体，（3）YTQ 是自然的。急性和慢性疼痛、关节炎和抑郁症是人们最常使用 YTQ 治疗的前 3 种医疗状况。
结论
YTQ 的使用正在大幅增加，主要是因为它对健康和慢性病采用了自然和整体的治疗方法。未来的研究旨在探索如何将 YTQ 最好地融入当前的医疗保健系统，这是有必要的。
