1. The purpose of study The problem lies in the Sasang-constitutional-medicine is a subjectiveness of diagnosis that can be varied by every donor. Questionnare for the Sasang Constitution Classification II(QSCCII) was invented to solve this problem. This study was conducted for two purpose. The one is re-value the QSCCII. The other is to make a basis to upgrade QSCCII. 2. The method of study QSCCII was administered to 537 patients at Kyung Hee Oriental Medicine Hospital. Data was collected during 19 months from september 2000 to march 2002. For the purpose of this study, the collected data was analyzed by crosstabs, variation analysis and discrimination analysis. The analyzing program was SPSS 8.0 for Windows. And using this program I made the judgmental equation to re-value the QSCCII. 3. The result of study 1) not applied intensifying value The diagnostic discrimination abilities of the QSCCII is 61.5% about Taeyangin, 57.7% about Soyangin, 67.2% about Taeumin, 68.8% about Soemin. And its average is 65.0%. 2) applied intensifying value The diagnostic discrimination abilities of the QSCCII is 76.9% about Taeyangin, 59.9% about Soyangin, 68.9% about Taeumin, 71.2% about Soemin. And its average is 67.3%. 3) I propose a new diagnostic possibility with a different discriminant analysis and increase 42.3% of diagnostic discrimination ability considering 25% of accident diagnostic discrimination ability. 4) Development and complement of Taeyangin and Soyangin questions is needed to increase the accuracy of diagnosis.

Objectives: One of the most important and difficult things in SaSang Constitution Medicine is to diagnose and classify constitution. So there have been a lot of methods and tools to diagnose and classify it. We have attempted to show the reliability and clinical application of the QSCC Ⅱ (Questionnaire for the Sasang Constitution Classification Ⅱ), comparing with our own clinical research. Methods: We surveyed information from QSCC Ⅱ and compared QSCC Ⅱ' s reliability with clinical research of 54 patients' constitution(men 24, women 30). Results: Taeeum-in is the most commonly reported constitution by clinical research, and the next is Soeum-in. Soyang-in is the most commonly reported constitution by QSCC Ⅱ and the next is Taeeum-in. In Taeeum-in and Soeum-in' s items of QSCC Ⅱ, these matched those of the clinical research. Soyang-in' s items of QSCC Ⅱ did not match. Conclusions: The efficiency of QSCC Ⅱ is higher than clinical research in Taeeum-in, Soeum-in. But lower than clinical research, Soyang-in and Taeyang-in have no reliability in QSCC Ⅱ. So Soyang-in and Taeyang-in require alternative complementary studies in the future.

Proceeding an objective Study of sasang constitution diagnosis by Sound Analysis which uses Computed Sound lab(CSL), we verified the confidence level of Questionnaire of Sasang Constitution classification II(QSCC II) and the first results of Sound Analysis for verifying correlation between the physical character and Sound character are as follows. 1. The confidence level of QSCC II is 70.8% to Soeumin, 60.8% to Soyangin, 74.5% to Taeumin, and 70.08% in total. But, the actual results of verifying the confidence level after making 100 persons an object of study, are that the confidence level of that is 55.10% to Soeumin, 30.77% to Soyangin, 80.00% to Taeumin, and 55.29% in total. So it doesn't coincide with the confidence lecel of QSCC II 70.8%. 2. The results of verifying the confidence level about other 134 persons after enough explanation before the constitutional diagnosis by QSCC II are that the confidence of that is 71.08 to Soeumin, 54.76% to Soyangin 81.82% to Taeumin, and 69.22% in total. 3. The results of verifying the correlation between B.M.I. and Sasang Costitution are that there are significant differences below P<0.001 between Taeumin and Soeumin, and between Taeumin and Soyangin. 4. Height and Weight influence on a fundamental frequency and formant frequency. 5. There are differences for every constitutions in a amplitude when we nave a Sound analysis. As aboves, it is considered that we can find the differences among the constitutional groups, if we have a Sound analysis of the constitutional Sound characters.

Objectives: We intended to know sensitivity, specificity and relation of diagnosis methods of Sasang Constitution. Methods: We compared QSCC II, PSSC, Body measurement dignosis results with gold standard ones which were diagnosed by Sasang Constitution specialist, and analyzed by crosstables to get the sensitivity and specificity of those. Results and conclusions 1. Sensitivity and specificity of one diagnosis method were low, so call, in QSCC II, Taeumin is 49% in sensitivity, 97% in specificity, Soeumin is 67%, 69%, Soyangin is 59%, 75%, in Body measurement, Taeumin is 66%, 89%, Soeumin is 70%, 82%, Soyangin is 49%, 78%. in PSSC, Taeumin is 57%, 90%, Soeumin is 88%, 62%, Soyangin is 18%, 88%. 2. When two diagnosis methods are consistent each other, sensitivity and specificity are more higher than one diagnosis method. 3. When three diagnosis methods are all consistent, sensitivity and specificity are most highest, but in Soyangin, those are decreased comparing with the case of consistency between QSCC II and Body measurement.

Objectives: Many studies have been reported about Sasang constitutional distribution of cerebrovascular disease(CVD) patients. But there has been little study about the risk factors of normal persons between Sasang constitutions. So we studied to evaluate the risk of CVD between Sasang constitutions. Methods: We retrospectively studied subjects without previous stroke($age{\geq}40$) who visited east-west medical examination center in Kang Nam Korean Hosipital, Kyung Hee University for last 2 years(1998.8.1.${\sim}$2000.7.31.). Sasang constitutional differentiation was performed by Questionnaire for the Constitution Classification(QSCC) II and subjects who couldn't be classifiea by QSCC II were excluded. Results : Total 363 subjects participated in this study(Taeyangin 0, Taeumin 103, Soyangin 113, Soumin 92, obscure 55). Diabetes mellitus(p<0.05), hyperlipidemia(p<0.01), obesity(p=0.000) were significantly prevalent in Taeumin. Hypertension and heart disease had no significant difference between Sasang constitutions. Conclusions: This study showed that the risk factors of CVD were more prevalent in Taeumin. Therefore we guess that Taeumin has high risk of CVD.
