Abstract

One in every 10 persons suffer from chronic gastritis in Korea. Endoscopy is most commonly used to diagnose the chronic gastritis. Endoscopic diagnosis is precise but it is accompanied with pain and high cost. According to pulse diagnosis in Traditional East Asian Medicine, health problems in stomach can be diagnosed with radial pulse signals in 'Guan' location in the right wrist, which are non-invasive and cost-effective. In this study, we developed a classification model of chronic gastritis using pulse signals in right 'Guan' location. We used both linear discrimination method and logistic regression model with respect to pulse features obtained with a peak-valley detection algorithm and a Gaussian model. As a result, we obtained sensitivity ranged between 77%~89% and specificity ranged between 72%~83% depending on classification models and feature extraction methods, and the average classification rates were approximately 80%, irrespective of the models. Specifically, the Gaussian model were featured by superior sensitivities (89.1% and 87.5%) while the peak-valley detection method showed superior specificities (82.8% and 81.3%), and the average classification rate (sensitivity + specificity) of the Gaussian model was 80.9% which was 1.2% ahead of the peak-valley method. In conclusion, we obtained a reliable classification model for the chronic gastritis based on the radial pulse feature extraction algorithms, where the Gaussian model was featured by outperformed sensitivity and the peak-valley method was featured by outperformed specificity.

한국에서 만성위염은 10명당 한 명 꼴로 발생하는 질병이다. 만성위염을 진단하기 위해서 일반적으로 내시경 검사를 하지만 이는 환자에게 고통을 주고 비용이 비싸다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 한편 비침습적이고 저비용인 전통한방의학의 맥진에 따르면, 오른쪽 손목의 '관' 위치에서 비위의 기능적 이상을 진단할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는, 전통한방의학의 견해에 따라 오른쪽 손목 '관' 부위의 맥파를 분석하여 만성위염 판별모델을 개발하였다. 모델의 판별률을 비교하기 위해, 피크-밸리 검출법과 가우시안 모델을 적용한 상이한 방법의 특징점 추출방법에 대해 선형판별분석 기법과 로지스틱 회귀분석법을 적용해 보았다. 그 결과, 판별모델과 특징점 추출 방법에 따라 77%~89%의 민감도와 72%~83%의 특이도를 보였고 각 모델의 평균 판별률은 약 80% 내외로 얻어졌다. 구체적으로, 가우시안 모델이 상대적으로 우수한 민감도(89.1%와 87.5%)를 보인 반면, 피크-밸리 검출법은 우수한 특이도(82.8%와 81.3%)를 보였고, 평균적인 판별률에 있어서는 가우시안 모델이 1.2% 정로 앞섰다(80.9% vs 79.7%). 결론적으로, 전통의학적 맥진원리에 기반한 요골동맥 맥파의 특성을 이용하여 유의미한 만성위염 판별모델을 얻을 수 있었고, 민감도에 있어서 가우시안 모델이 더 우수하였고, 특이도에 있어서 피크-밸리 검출법이 더 우수하였다.
