Diagnostic Indicators for Blood Stasis Syndrome Patients with Gynaecological Diseases
摘要
To investigate the important diagnostic indicators for blood stasis syndrome (BSS) in patients of childbearing age with gynaecological diseases. A partial least squared-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) were applied to BSS symptoms data of patients with gynaecological diseases
and the diagnostic indicators used by doctors of Korean medicine (DKMs) among BSS patients with gynaecological diseases were also investigated. A total of 103 patients of childbearing age with gynaecological diseases and 40 healthy controls were enrolled. Among the 103 patients
63 (61.7%) and 40 (38.8%) were diagnosed with BSS and non-BSS
respectively
and BSS patients exhibited a more severe extent of disease. A score plot of PLS-DA showed clearly different patterns among the 3 groups. Based on the variable importance on projection of PLS-DA model
menstrual pains
dark lumps in the menstrual blood
ileocoecal tenderness and resistance
sharp pains
and sublingual varicosities were selected as the top five most important indicators. Moreover
more than 75% of DKMs chose dark lumps in menstrual blood
menstrual pain
and dark menstrual blood as the diagnostic indicators of BSS in patients with gynaecological diseases
and more than 49% of them also considered sharp pains
dark red tongue
sublingual varicosities
and tendency to bruise easily as diagnostic indicators of BSS. DKMs focused on menstrual symptoms and certain gynaecological symptoms to diagnose BSS patients of childbearing age with female diseases.
