ABSTRACT
The relationship between the fur of the tongue and dysfunctions of Ki, Blood, Body Fluids, Spleen and Stomach was investigated in 167 cases by analyzing both subjective and objective symptoms. The mean score of Ki-deficiency increased with the degree of both thickness and yellowness of the tongue fur. The mean score of upper gastrointestinal tract symptoms also increased with the degree of thickness of the tongue fur. These results suggest that when examining the tongue fur during Oriental Medical diagnosis, it is important to keep in mind its relationship with dysfunction of the Spleen and Stomach and Ki-deficiency.
