Abstract:
This study was aimed to discuss traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) factors of bone mineral density (BMD) in order to figure out the relation of BMD T-Score to the TCM syndrome of kidney-deficiency, qi-deficiency , and blood-stasis . It may provide the scientific basis for TCM treatment of osteoporosis . Patients were collected from August 2010 to April 2011 at the Longhua Hospital affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine . The assay of BMD was performed with the U . S . HOLOGIC dual-energy radia-tion . The BMD was measured and recorded in the form . All data were collected into the computer using Epi-Data3 . 02 software . Then , the data was analyzed by the SPSS15 . 0 statistical software . The results showed that through the Mann-Whitney U test , the BMD of patients with kidney-deficiency syndrome was worse compared to patients without kidney-deficiency syndrome ( P < 0 . 01 ); the BMD of patients with q i-deficiency syndrome was worse compared to patients without q i-deficiency syndrome ( P < 0 . 01 ); the BMD of patients with blood-stasis syndrome was worse compared to patients without blood-stasis syndrome ( P < 0 . 01 ) . It showed that the BMD of patients with kidney-deficiency , q i-deficiency and blood-stasis was worse compared to patients with-out syndrome of kidney-deficiency , q i-deficiency and blood-stasis . Under a variety of evidence-based BMD distribution , the chi-square test showed that there was significant difference ( P < 0 . 01 ) . It showed that differ-ent BMD had different TCM syndrome distributions . Among normal BMD cases , distributions of syndrome with-out kidney-deficiency, qi-deficiency and blood-stasis occupied the largest proportion. Among osteoporosis cas-es , the distribution of syndrome of kidney-deficiency , q i-deficiency and blood-stasis occupied the largest pro-portion . It was concluded that the syndrome of kidney-deficiency , q i-deficiency and blood-stasis maybe impor-tant factors to influence BMD . It may also be the risk factor of osteoporosis complication . The BMD are relat-ed to the syndrome of kidney-deficiency , q i-deficiency and blood-stasis and their combinations . Among bone mass reduction and osteoporosis cases , the proportion of combination of two or three types of syndromes was more than single one syndrome . It suggested that the combination of kidney-deficiency , q i-deficiency and blood-stasis had more influence on BMD .
