Abstract:
This study mainly explored the pulse parameters in children with RRTI with different TCM syndromes,aiming at providing therapeutic indexes and objective basis for its diagnosis and treatment.Three hundred and forty-eight cases of RRTI were divided into five groups,including the group of qi deficiency in the lung (or Fei Qi Xu,FQX),the group of invasion of the lung by wind-heat (or Feng Re Fan Fei,FRFF),the group of invasion of lung by wind-cold (or Feng Han Fan Fei,FHFF),the group of obstruction of phlegm-damp in the lung (or Tan Shi Zu Fei,TSZF) and the group of obstruction of phlegm-heat in the lung (or Tan Re Yong Fei,TRYF).65 children of good health were involved in the control group.Z-BOX pulsemeter apparatus was applied to the paraticipants for analyzing their pulse parameters.As a result,it was found that values of h1,h3,h4,h5,t and h4/h1 of RRTI children decreased,compared with the children of good health (P < 0.01);while h1,h3,h4 and h5 of children in FQX group declined (P < 0.01);and the values of h4,h5,t,w,h3/h1,h4/h1 and h5/h1 of children in FRFF group went down (P < 0.01);while the values of h1,h3,h4,h5,t,w,h3/h1 and h4/h1 of TRYF group fell (P < 0.01);and those of h5,t and h5/h1 of children in FHFF group decreased (P < 0.01).Compared with FQX group,h1 value of FRFF group increased (P < 0.01),while the values of w,h3/h1,hs/h1 and w/t of FRFF group declined (P < 0.01);and the h1 value of TSZF group boosted (P < 0.01),while the value of w and h3/h1 of TRYF group decreased (P < 0.01);and the h5/h1 value of FHFF group fell (P < 0.01).In comparison with FRFF group,the values of t,w and h5/h1 of TSZF group went up (P < 0.01),while the values of h1 and h3 of TRYF group declined (P < 0.01).In comparison with TSZF group,the values of h3,h4,t and w of TRYF group went down (P < 0.01),and the t value of FHFF group decreased (P < 0.01).In conclusion,the pulse parameters of RRTI children can be recognized as objective indicators for TCM syndrome differentiations.
