Objectives:The aim of the study is to investigate the correlation of Ryodoraku score and four constitution in the patients with chronic low back pain.
Methods: Using Pearson’s correlation test, we divided 79 patients into two groups(normal and chronic low back pain group) and analyzed the correlation between Ryodoraku score and major constitution rate of four constitution.
Results:1. Ryodoraku score in the chronic low back pain group was mostly found to be below 40 ㎂, regardless of constitution. 2. There was negative correlation on F2 in lesser Yin person of chronic low back pain group, and there was positive correlation on H4 H5 F2 F4 and F5 in greater Yin person of chronic low back pain group. 3. There was negative correlation on H1 and H6 in lesser Yang person of normal group. 4. There was negative correlation on H6 in lesser Yang person of total group including normal and chronic low back pain group.
Conslusion:These results suggest that roydoraku should be correlated to four constitutional diagnosis in part and available to increase accuracy of four constitutional or Ryodoraku diagnosis.
