ABSTRACT
Objective To study the distribution rule of syndrome factors in each diagnosis and staging of colorectal cancer.to Analyze the relationship between the syndrome factors and the clinical presentations of colorectal cancer,and then to provide a basis for further studying of the distribution and combination rule of syndrome factors in colorectal cancer.Methods The clinical data of patients with colorectal cancer was collected from Jiangsu Province Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2011.1-2011.12.According to the related standard,the spleen,large intestine,kidney,liver,qi deficiency,qi stagnation,wet,heat,blood stasis,poison,yang deficiency,yin deficiency,and blood deficiency altogether 13 common syndrome factors of colorectal cancer were selected.Retrospective study method was adopted to study the distribution of syndrome factors.And SPSS 17.0 statistical software was used to analyze the relationship between the syndrome factors and the clinical presentations of colorectal cancer.Results 6 clinical presentations include loose stool had a relationship with syndrome factor of liver; 7 clinical presentations include dark tongue had a relationship with syndrome factor of spleen; 4 clinical presentations include blood stool had a relationship with syndrome factor of large intestine; 8 clinical presentations include emaciation had a relationship with syndrome factor of kidney; 6 clinical presentations include tired with qi deficiency; red tongue with wet syndrome factor; 2 clinical presentations include dark tongue had a relationship with blood stasis syndrome factor,8 clinical presentations include pantothenic acid had a relationship with qi stagnation syndrome factor; 10 clinical presentations include pale tongue had a relationship with blood deficiency syndrome factor; red tongue had a relationship with heat syndrome factor; unsmooth pulse had a relationship with poison syndrome factor.Conclusions The syndrome factors of qi deficiency,spleen and qi stagnation are more common in colorectal cancer.11 in 13 syndrome factors have several relative clinical presentations.But the diagnosis of syndrome factor based on clinical presentations need further study.
