The followings are the conclusions: In case of Dam type persons, numbness is mainly caused by Fire with blood deficiency and so cured by tonifying the Jung and blood. In case of Bang Kwang type persons. it is generally caused by the deficiency of Ki and damp-phlegm and treated by reinforcing Ki and removing dampness. Persons of Jung and Hyal types are apt to be afflicted with numbness of deficiency symptoms which can be cured by tonifying the Jung and blood. Those of Ki and Shin types are inclined to get numb from the congestion and stagnancy and so treated by promotion the flow of Ki, dispelling stagnancy, resolving phlegm and promoting digestion. Numbness is common to the old people and women. The deficiency of blood and primordial energy is a cause of old people's numbness. Women get numb due to the pent-up feelings and emotional disturbance. The function disharmony of five Jang and six Bu makes the body lose the control of heat and cold or deficiency and excessiveness, which can be a cause of numbness. Especially the deficiency of the spleen results in numbness. When the special parts of the body become numb treatment must be decided after due consideration on which of the Jang and Bu or meridians is related to that affected area. In case of person with six meridian types. unbalance of Ki and blood leads the six atmospheric influences(wind, cold, heat, dampness, dryness and fire) get into the body through the most developed meridian and brings in numbness.

This study is about a comparison of controlled and uncontrolled hypertension groups regarding comprehensive diagnosis of Qi blood water and quality of life. We surveyed "controlled and uncontrolled hypertension patients" using questionnaires for comprehensive diagnosis of Qi blood water, SF-36 and HTN QoL (Measurement Scale for the quality of life in hypertensive patients). There was no difference in comprehensive diagnosis of Qi blood water between the controlled and uncontrolled hypertension groups. Within the controlled hypertension group, the patients diagnosed with a Qi deficiency, Qi stagnation, Qi counterflow, blood deficiency, and water retention received lower total scores in SF-36 and HTN QoL than in undiagnosed patients. Within the uncontrolled hypertension group, the patients diagnosed with Qi deficiency, blood deficiency, and water retention got lower total scores in SF-36 and HTN QoL than in undiagnosed patients. These results were statistically significant. These results are insufficient that we and use comprehensive diagnosis of Qi blood water for a diagnosis tool of hypertension. But if we have better studies that make up for weak points, these results will help to make a diagnosis tool for hypertension.

Objectives The objective of this study is to examine the interpretability of the questionnaire-based pattern identification in terms of biosignals. For this purpose, we investigate the relationship between electrochemical skin conductance (ESC) and Qi-Blood-Yin-Yang Deficiency Questionnaire (QBYY-Q) in diabetic patients. Methods A total of 40 patients with diabetes mellitus answered the QBYY-Q and their ESC were measured by SUDOSCAN device (a diabetes screening device, France). To analyze the relationship between QBYY-Q and ESC, ANOVA analysis and Scheffe test were performed and Pearson correlation coefficients were obtained. Results Of the 40 diabetic patients, 23 (57.5%) were males and 17 (42.5%) were females. According to the QBYY-Q, 9 patients were classified into Qi deficiency pattern (QD), 9 patients were Blood deficiency pattern (BD), 10 patients were Yin deficiency pattern (YiD) and 12 patients were Yang deficiency pattern (YaD). Demographic information (age, body mass index, duration of illness, etc.), signs of vitality (blood pressure, body temperature, etc.), fasting plasma glucose and glycated hemoglobin were not significantly different in each deficiency pattern. The ESC of the right leg was significantly lower in the BD group compared to the YiD group (p<0.022). Pearson's correlation coefficient was negatively correlated with the BD questionnaire score (r=-0.343, p <0.05). Finally, ESC showed a positive correlation with hemoglobin and erythrocyte levels in all limbs (r=0.483, p<0.01). Conclusions We showed that ESC could be used to classify the Deficiency pattern identifications in diabetic patients. Especially, the ESC was significantly lower in the BD group and was negatively correlated with the BD scores. It implies the potential utility of the ESC to understand the BD in terms of modern biosignals.

The "Somun Jogyongron(素問 調經論)" describes excess and deficiency syndromes. The study suggests that excess syndrome(實證) is caused by vigorous pathogenic fire(火邪)(the spirit(神)), pathogenic dryness(燥邪)(Gi(氣)), pathogenic wind(風邪)(blood(血)), pathogenic dampness(濕邪)(physique(形)) or pathogenic coldness(寒邪)(will(志)). When pathogenic fire is dominant within the body, Gi and blood becomes excessive and come out of the body, but the body cannot take them back, leading to the symptom in which the patient cannot stop laughing. When pathogenic dryness prevails, the lung(肺) cannot function properly. This means that the convergence(收斂) function of the clearing the lung and descending Gi(肅降) is deteriorated, and the patient shows symptoms of dyspnea and cough. Strong pathogenic wind increases the ascencling Gi in the liver(肝氣) and fuel angry emotion when the patient becomes upset. When pathogenic dampness is dominant, spleen(脾) function drops due to lumping effects, and the patient will experience abdominal distention(腹脹), which will disturb urination and defecation. When pathogenic coldness prevails, abdominal distention occurs due to condensating effects, and Yang Gj(陽氣) in the kidney(腎) is disturbed, leading to digestion disorders and eventually water-grain dysentery. Deficiency syndrome is caused by the lack of essential Gi(精氣) in the five viscera(五藏). Deficiency of sprit means the lack of Gi in the heart(心氣), so the patient becomes vulnerable to sadness. Deficiency of Gi means the lack of Gi in the lung(肺氣), so the patient may have breathing disorders. Deficiency of blood means the lack of Gi in the Liver(肝氣), so the patient can be easily scared. Deficiency of physique means the lack of Gi in the spleen(脾氣), making it difficult to use arms and legs. Deficiency of will means the lack of Gi in the kidney(腎氣), so Gowl syndrome(厥證) can ensue.
