Correlation Analysis of Data of Tongue and Pulse in Patients With Disease Fatigue and Sub-health Fatigue

Fatigue is one of the most common subjective symptoms of abnormal health state, there is still no reliable and stable evaluation method to distinguish disease fatigue and non-disease fatigue. Studies have shown that tongue diagnosis and pulse diagnosis are the reflection of overall state of the body. This study aims to explore the distribution rules and correlation of data of tongue and pulse in population with disease fatigue and sub-health fatigue and provide a new method of clinical diagnosis of fatigue from the perspective of tongue diagnosis and pulse diagnosis. In this study, a total of 736 people were selected and divided into healthy controls (n = 250), sub-health fatigue group (n = 242), and disease fatigue group (n = 244). TFDA-1 tongue diagnosis instrument and PDA-1 pulse diagnosis instrument were used to collect tongue image and sphygmogram, simple correlation analysis and canonical correlation analysis were used to analyze the correlation of tongue and pulse data about the two groups of fatigue people. The study had shown that tongue and pulse data could provide a certain reference for the diagnosis of different types of fatigue, tongue and pulse data in disease fatigue and sub-health fatigue population had different distribution rules, and there was a simple correlation and canonical correlation in the disease fatigue population, the coefficient of canonical correlation was .649 (P <.05).
