Characteristics of Traditional Chinese Medicine Syndromes in 296 Patients with Urolithiasis增强出版
To analyze the characteristics of tradition Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes in patients with urolithiasis.
Method
2
A syndrome questionnaire was developed to collect the general data and four diagnosis information on 296 patients with urolithiasis who were treated from September 2021 to September 2022. Tongue images
pulse images
symptoms
and signs were statistically analyzed
and the characteristics of syndrome were explored by association rule analysis
factor analysis
and cluster analysis.
Result
2
① In the distribution of tongue images
the single tongue images with a frequency of more than 20% were white fur
red tongue
thick fur
greasy fur
and yellow fur. In the distribution pf pulse images
the single pulse with the frequency of more than 20% was fine pulse
string pulse
slippery pulse
and sinking pulse. There were 27 symptoms and signs with a frequency of more than 10%. The characteristic symptoms of acute onset such as lumbar and abdominal pain and nausea
frequent urination
hematuria
and poor urination were relatively common
and other symptoms were chill and fever
defecation
and digestion. ② Among the 14 strong association rules
5 were yang-deficiency and cold-dampness syndromes
4 were yin-deficiency and heat syndromes
1 was kidney-deficiency syndrome
and 3 were renal colic with accompanying symptoms. ③ Sixteen common factors were extracted by factor analysis
and the main elements of the disease location were represented by spleen and kidney. The main elements of disease natures were Yin deficiency
Yang deficiency
dampness
and heat
and often mixed with deficiency-excess in complexity. Six syndromes were obtained by cluster analysis
and the represented syndromes were mainly kidney deficiency and dampness and stasis
Qi stagnation and heat accumulation
Yin deficiency and dampness heat
spleen-kidney Yang deficiency
spleen deficiency and dampness
and dampness-heat accumulation.
Conclusion
2
The syndrome manifestations of urolithiasis are chill and fever
defecation
sweating
and digestive tract symptoms. The deficiency syndromes are mainly Yin deficiency
Yang deficiency
kidney deficiency
and spleen deficiency. The excess syndromes are mainly wet and heat. The deficiency and excess syndromes often exist simultaneously. The spleen deficiency is the important pathogenesis of urolithiasis besides the kidney deficiency.
