Detailed Description:
It is difficult to predict the process or outcome of disease for individuals who expose to the same pathogen or condition But according to the Traditional Chinese Medicine physical constitution is an important factor for disease pattern severity and response to the treatment So it is paid more and more attention in Western Medicine to study the variation of individualized susceptibility to diseases
There have been some researches to investigate the relationship between physical constitution and disease pattern Before further studies we need to obtain more information about physical constitution and clinical characteristics Therefore we design a comprehensive questionnaire to survey the types of physical constitution And we plan to collect the data from health reports of candidates after their medical tests at Health Examination Center in National Taiwan University Hospital Yu-Lin Branch We focus on the relationship between clinical characteristics age sex symptoms physical signs laboratory results and image findings of Western Medicine and the physical constitutional types of Chinese Medicine Then we will try to find the correlation and significance between them
The study will conclude the constitutional characteristics in general population of Taiwan and the distribution tendency of physical constitution for the common diseases The result can serve as a stepping stone for integration of the Traditional Chinese Medicine and Western Medicine
