Kidney Disease Clinical Trial
Official title:
Traditional Chinese Medicine Constitution Study and the Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Disease in Taiwan Population
Several questionnaires have been developed for clinical research in Traditional Chinese Medicine. The objective of this study is to evaluate the consistency and relevance of two questionnaires, the Constitution in Chinese Medicine Questionnaire (CCMQ) and the Body Constitutions Questionnaire (BCQ).
Aim: Several questionnaires have been developed for clinical research in Traditional Chinese
Medicine. The objective of this study is to evaluate the consistency and relevance of two
questionnaires, the Constitution in Chinese Medicine Questionnaire (CCMQ) and the Body
Constitutions Questionnaire (BCQ).
Method: Between December 2015 and December 2016, a sample of 150 participants aged above 20
years from the Chinese Medical University "elder college" curriculum and outpatients at the
Hospital in Taichung, Taiwan, will be interviewed to complete both questionnaires based on
subjective symptoms in a 3-d interval. There are three common patterns of body constitutions
in CCMQ and BCQ: gentleness/plain, Ying-deficiency, and Yang-deficiency. As for other body
constitutions, Qi-deficiency, phlegm-dampness, dampness-heat, blood-stasis, Qi-depression,
and special diathesis are described only in CCMQ, while stasis is a feature only defined in
BCQ. Average and standard deviation will be used to describe the measurement scores of the
questionnaires and the percentages of constitution distribution. Statistical analysis of the
Kappa value, Pearson Chi-Square, odds ratio, and Pearson's correlation coefficient would be
employed to examine the consistency and association between the two questionnaires.
Expected result: The investigators hope to 1) describe the constitution profile of the study
population; 2) assess the consistency between two questionnaires; and 3) examine the
associations between CCMQ and demographic life style factors.
