原发性肾小球疾病中医证型与舌形指数关系的探讨

目的：探讨原发性肾小球疾病中医证型与舌形指数之间的关系。方法：将116例病例按中医辨证本证分为气虚、阳虚、阴虚、气阴两虚4型，标证分为水湿、湿热、湿浊和瘀血4型，观察舌形；利用专用舌象信息处理仪器，采集舌形数据，经计算机处理输出舌形指数。通过肉眼观察和计算机对所采集舌形的定量分析（舌形指数），探讨各中医证型舌形指数间的差异。结果：各证型之间的舌形指数差异均无统计学意义（P〉0．05）。结论：胖大齿痕舌与气虚水湿证有关，舌形指数对中医辨证分型有一定的指导意义。

Relation between Chinese Medical Patterns and Tongue Form Indices for Primary Glomerulopathy

Objective：To explore the relation between Chinese medical patterns for primary glomernlopathy and tongue form indices. Methods： 116 patients were classified into Qi deficiency, Yang deficiency, Yin deficiency, and deficiency of both Qi and Yin in terms of root-deficiency ; and divided to water-damp, damp-heat, damp-turbid and blood stagnation in terms of branch-excess. Wecollected da- ta with tongue form processing equipment, and obtained indices with computers. By macroscopic observation and quantitative analysis of tongue images, differences among the tongue form indices of various Chinese medical patterns were studied. Results：There was no signif- icant difference among various types （ P 〉 0. 05 ）. Conclusion ： The enlarged teeth-marked tongue may be related to pattern of Qi-deficiency water-damp. Tongue form indices are helpful for pattern differentiation.
