ABSTRACT
The relationship between tongue coating and Pancreas exocrine function was investigated in 45 cases by pancreatic function diagnostant. These cases were classified into three groups, “slight, ” “moderate” and “marked” according to the degree of thickness of tongue coating. Among the three groups, the mean rate of PABA excretion in urine tended to decrease as the degree of thickness of the tongue coating increased. That in the marked group was lower than in the slight group with statistical significance. The results suggest that thickness of tongue coating is partially related to pancreas exocrine function.
