目的:探索阳虚不孕的红外热成像人体代谢热值特点。方法:门诊收集不孕症患者及女性体检人群,对自愿进行红外热成像扫描且无禁忌者,填写《中医体质分类与判定调查表》,按疾病及体质分为阳虚不孕组(97例)、非阳虚不孕组(16例)、健康组(29例)。对以上人群进行红外热成像全身扫描,测量前额、足部、督脉、神阙、下腹、子宫六个区位热值,采用统计软件SPSS 17.0进行分析。结果:阳虚不孕组在督脉、神阙、下腹、子宫、前额五个区位热值较非阳虚不孕组低(P〈0.05),在足部、督脉、神阙、下腹、子宫五个区位热值较健康人组低(P〈0.01);非阳虚不孕组和健康人组间六个区位热值比较均无统计学意义(P〉0.05)。结论:阳虚不孕具有督脉、神阙、下腹、子宫等区位热值低下,即肾阳亏虚的代谢热值特点。
Objective : To explore the infrared thermal imaging features of infertility with Yang - deficiency. Methods : Infertility patients and healthy female for routine examinations were collected in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu University of Tra- ditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) from August 2011 to December 2012. The voluntary participants without history of pelvic inflam- matory disease were filled the questionnaires of Classification and Determination of Constitution in TCM. According to disease and physique, they were divided into infertility with Yang - deficiency group ( n = 97 ) , infertility without Yang - deficiency group ( n = 16), healthy control group (n = 29 ). All voluntary were scanned by infrared thermal imaging. Consequently the calorific values of six body regions were measured,including forehead, feet, Du Channel, Shenque point,lower abdomen and uterus. Data was ana- lyzed by SPSS 17.0. Results : Calorific values of Du channel, Shenque point,lower abdomen, uterus and forehead areas in infertility group with Yang - deficiency were significantly lower than those in infertility without Yang - deficiency group( P 〈 0.05 ). Calorif- ic values of Du channel, Shenque point,lower abdomen, uterus and feet areas in infertility group with Yang - deficiency were sig- nificantly lower than those in healthy group ( P 〈 0.01 ). There was no significant difference between the infertility without Yang - deficiency group and healthy group. Conclusion : ( 1 ) The infrared thermal imaging of infertility with Yang - deficiency is featured as low calorific value of body region including Du channel, Shenque point,lower abdomen uterus, etc.
