Abstract:
Statistical analysis of TCM syndrome differentiation and clinical symptoms were made in 163 cases of diseases of digestive tract. It was found that the patients of abnormal defection or tendecy of abnormal defecation with the hyperactive liver - Qi attacking the spleen, stagnation of liver-Qi due to hypofunction of the spleen, loose stool due to deficiency of the spleen, constipation due to Qi-deficiency, constipation due to Qi - staganation syndromes accounted for 60%- 100%. Elecrtic examination of colon on the body surface and analysis of frequancy spectrum found that hyperelectroactivity of low - frequency and high - frequency segment of colon and contractive complex myoelectric hyperactivity in the patients of the hyperactive liver - Qi attacking the spleen; hyperelectroactivity of high - frequency segment of the ascending and descending colon and contractive complex myoelectric hyperactivity and decrease of electric activity of high - frequency segment of the sigmoid colon in the patients of loose stool due to hypofunction of the spleen: obvious decrease of electric activiy of low - frequency and high-frequency of the colon and contractive complex myoelectric hyperactivity in the patients of constipation due to deficiency of Qi or Qi - stagnation, but electric activity of the high -frequency segment of the colon and contractive complex myoelectric activity after meal in the patients of constipation due to Qi -stagnation was stronger than that in the patients of constipation due to Qi - deficiency. Electric frequency spectrum of colon can indirectly reflect changes of colon dynamics of different syndromes, and it can partially expain the changes of stool and the mechanism of relative symptoms.
