RESUMO
Objective To observe the effect of hot spring medicated bath regimen which is guided by the theory of constitution distinction of TCM.Methods According to the standard of Constitution Classification and Decision of TCM which is published by China Association of Chinese Medicine to assess the standard-compliant volunteers,then make the volunteers have physical-chemical indexes checked and hot spring medicated bath taken.At last,re-assess the constitution of the individual and re-check the indexes.Results After the drug bath,the levels of total cholesterol (TCH),low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C),thyroid stimulating factor(TSH),and IL-1 of the patients who were both yang deficiency and phlegm-dampness decreased significantly (t values were 2.093,2.045,2.092,and 2.13,respectively; P＜0.05); the levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C),cortisol,and free thyroxine T4 (fT4) increased significantly (t values were 3.731,2.571,and 3.027,respectively; P＜0.05) ; the pulse rate raised obviously (t=8.323,P＜0.01) ; both of the systolic (t=4.405,P＜0.01) and diastolic (t=2.782,P＜0.01)blood pressure dropped.After the drug bath,the levels of fT4 and IL-1 of the patients who were yang deficiency significantly increased (t values were 3.709 and 3.339,respectively; P＜0.01); the waist circumference reduced (t=2.831,P＜0.01),the pulse rate rised (t=9.605,P＜0.01) ; both of the systolic (t=5.281,P＜0.01)and diastolic (t=6.573,P＜0.01)blood pressure dropped.After the drug bath,the levels of pulse rate and diastolic blood pressure of the patients who are phlegm-dampness changed significantly:the pulse rate raised (t=4.702,P＜0.01),the diastolic blood pressure dropped(t=6.096,P＜ 0.01).As the effect analysis showed,the Ridit data of the criterion group which consists of summation was 0.5.Compared with the criterion group,the total effective rate of the yang deficiency group was 74.1％,which was statistically significant (R=0.55,P＜0.05).The total effective rate of the phiegm-dampness group was 81.8％,which had no statistical significance (R=0.48,P＞0.05).The total effective rate of the both yang deficiency and phlegm-dampness group was 77.4％,which was statistically significant (R=0.46,P＜0.05).Conclusion The Wuyi hot spring medicated bath regiman is helpful to the constitution type of yang deficient and phlegm-dampness,which can help warming yang and benefiting qi,living blood links contact us nourishing the skin,reducing blood fat,lowering blood pressure,improving the immune function and so on.
