Study of Traditional Chinese Medicine Diagnostic Aid Platform for Hyperlipemia Based on Adaptive Clustering Algorithm / 世界科学技术-中医药现代化

ABSTRACT

Hyperlipidemia is one of the main basic lesions of blood vessels and organ diseases. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been used in the prevention and treatment of hyperlipidemia with advantages such as little drug side effects and obvious efficacy. The establishment of hyperlipidemia diagnostic aid platform helped to improve treatment efficiency, and provide a platform for data acquisition, storage and analysis for research on hyperlipidemia syndrome standardization. At first, a collection system was implemented, which was consisted of tongue image and the text information of the other three diagnostic methods, for doctor's accurate mastering of patient's clinical manifesta-tions and improvement of therapeutic effect. Through this platform, a clustering algorithm was applied to analyze clin-ical information of four diagnostic methods among 897 hyperlipemia cases, which had been classified into 5 cate-gories. Compare disease characteristics of samples in every category with syndromes category and find out the rela-tionships between them, by which the foundation of hyperlipemia syndrome differentiation standardization will be es-tablish. It provided suggestions on TCM syndrome differentiation and diagnosis.
