Correlation Analysis between Traditional Chinese Medicine Meridian Detection and Abnormal Physical Examination Results Related to Chronic Diseases
Objective To explore the correlation between traditional Chinese medicine meridian detection re-sults and abnormal physical examination results related to chronic disease among the population underwent physi-cal examination in Beijing area.Methods Eight hundred and eighty-eight subjects who underwent traditional Chi-nese medicine meridian detection in the physical examination department of Beijing electric power hospital from January 2022 to December 2022 were selected,the basic information of the subjects and abnormal results of chronic disease-related physical examinations were collected.Statistical methods such as frequency distribution,chi square test,and logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the relationship between traditional Chinese medicine me-ridian detection results and abnormal results such as age,gender,overweight and obesity,nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD),and carotid intima media thickness(CIMT)of the subjects.Results Among 888 cases of tradi-tional Chinese medicine meridian detection in Beijing,the top 10 most frequently occurring TCM syndrome types were kidney yin deficiency(296 cases,33.3％),dampness heat in sanjiao(224 cases,25.2％),liver depression and qi stagnation(222 cases,25.0％),cold dampness(179 cases,20.2％),stomach yang deficiency(169 cases,19.0％),blazing heart-fire(169 cases,19.0％),kidney essence deficiency(167 cases,18.8％),dampness-heat in liver meridi-an(148 cases,16.7％),kidney yang deficiency(134 cases,15.1％),lung heat(97 cases,10.9％)and liver fire flaming up(97 cases,10.9％).The results of chi square test showed that the frequency of kidney yin deficiency and damp-ness-heat in liver meridian in female subjects was higher than that in male subjects(P＜0.05),and the frequency of liver depression and qi stagnation,cold dampness and kidney yang deficiency in male subjects was higher than that in female subjects(P＜0.05).There were differences in the distribution of dampness heat in sanjiao,stomach yang deficiency,blazing heart-fire and lung yin deficiency in different age groups(P＜0.05).There were differences in the distribution of liver depression and qi stagnation,dampness-heat in liver meridian,lung heat in overweight and obese subjects(P＜0.05).There were differences in the distribution of kidney yin deficiency,dampness-heat in liver meridian and dampness stagnation in sanjiao in NAFLD subjects(P＜0.05).There were differences in the distribu-tion of blazing heart-fire,dampness-heat in liver meridian,and kidney yang deficiency in CIMT abnormal subjects(P＜0.05).The binary logistic regression results showed that the detection of overweight and obesity was correla-ted with liver depression and qi stagnation,lung heat(P＜0.05).The detection of NAFLD was correlated with kid-ney yin deficiency,dampness-heat in liver meridian,kidney essence deficiency(P＜0.05).The detection of CIMT abnormalities was correlated with dampness-heat in liver meridian,kidney yang deficiency(P＜0.05).Conclusion There were differences in the distribution of traditional Chinese medicine meridian detection results with the detec-tion of overweight and obesity,NAFLD,and CIMT abnormalities,which could provide objective basis for the pre-vention and treatment of chronic diseases in traditional Chinese medicine.
