用相关系数法探讨齿痕舌出现的特点

Study the Characteristics of Appearance of Indented Tongue by Correlation Coefficient Method

目的 :用相关系数法探讨齿痕舌的出现与年龄、舌体胖瘦、舌色、舌苔厚度的相互关系。方法 :采用互信息的方法分析体检人群的齿痕舌与舌象其他因素的关联性。结果 :齿痕舌与舌体胖瘦的关系最大 ,与年龄段的相关系数最小。符合中医临床诊断观察。结论 :齿痕舌的出现与舌体胖大有关 ,与年龄关系不大 ,舌象的变化可能与体液代谢变化有关。

Objective:To study the correlation between the appearance of indented tongue with age and fat and thin of tongue and colour of tongue and thickness by correlation coefficient method.Method:Mutual information is introduced to analyse the relationship between indented tongue of subjects were examined with tongue diagnosis.Results:The relationship between indented tongue with fat and thin of tongue is more larger than that of indented tongue with age,which accords with clinical diagnosis.Conclusion:The appearance of indented tongue relates to fat of tongue.But the relation between indented tongue with age is incompact.Maybe the change of tongue diagnosis relates to body liquid metabolism.
