Abstract

Blood stasis is a very important pathophysiological concept not only in Kampo but also in traditional Chinese medicine. Blood stasis indicates severe disease. Fuku shin (the abdominal exam) and Zetsu shin (the tongue exam) are the most important approaches of the 4 diagnostic procedures in Kampo. Tenderness of the lower abdominal region ( Sho fuku koh man) and distended sublingual veins have been mentioned as typical signs of blood stasis in Kampo or traditional Chinese medicine. The aim of the present study was to determine the association between Sho fuku koh man and distended sublingual veins. An appearance of sublingual veins and a level of Sho fuku koh man showed a significant and positive correlation ( rs = .5248; n = 279; P < .0001). In conclusion, the relationship between the appearance of sublingual veins and the level of Sho fuku koh man showed a significant and positive correlation.

血瘀证舌诊与汉布腹诊关系的观察研究。

血瘀是汉布乃至中医学中一个非常重要的病理生理学概念。血瘀表明病情严重。Fuku shin(腹部检查)和Zetsu shin(舌头检查)是汉布四种诊断程序中最重要的方法。下腹部的压痛(Sho fuku koh man)和舌下静脉扩张被认为是汉布或传统中医中血瘀的典型症状。本研究的目的是确定正福男与舌下静脉扩张之间的关系。舌下静脉的出现与shofuku koh man的水平呈显著正相关(rs = .5248;N = 279;P < 0.0001)。综上所述，舌下静脉的出现与正福高水平呈显著正相关。
