平和体质及其辨识方法的思考

Reflection on the balanced constitution and its identification method

平和体质是中医体质学说中最基本的体质分型,但在研究过程中常被作为对照组而忽视其自身的价值。本文总结近年来关于平和体质的特征、内涵、辨识方法等方面的研究进展,指出将平和体质的概念与"健康人"或"非偏颇"相混淆是错误的,引起这种误解的主要原因在于目前的体质辨识方法存在较明显的主观化问题,认为应通过临床大数据的补充,提取平和体质者的脉象特征信息作为平和体质辨识标准化、客观化的可行指标,提出明确内涵,完善辨识方法 ,将其作为独立的体质分型进行系统化、客观化研究是平和体质的进一步研究方向。

As the most basic type of the classification of constitutions of traditional Chinese medicine（TCM）, the balanced constitution has always been set as the control group and its own research has been ignored. This paper summarizes the research progress of the characteristics, connotations and identification methods of the balanced constitution in recent years, points out that because of the influence of subjective factors, the concept of ＂balanced constitution＂ and ＂not ill＂ and ＂un-lopsided constitution＂ has been confused. The pulse diagnostic information can help to offer an objective and standardized method to identify the constitution with supplement of clinical data. Definitive the connotation,improve the identification method, study the balanced constitution in systematic and objective way, these issues to be solved is the direction of further research.
