Correlation analysis between characteristics under gastroscope and image information of tongue in patients with chronic gastriti.

Abstract

To explore the correlation between diagnostic information of tongue and gastroscopy results of patients with chronic gastritis. Frequent pattern growth (FP-Growth), SPSS Modeler was used to analyze the correlation rules between the image information of tongue parameters and the characteristics of the stomach and duodenum seen under gastroscopy. Ranking in order of confidence: cyanotic tongue, slippery fur, yellow fur and spotted tongue were sequently associated with both gastric antrum mucosal hyperemia or edema and gastric antrum mucosal erythema/macula. L, one value of tongue coating color, which counted among (30, 60), tooth-marked tongue and b, one value of tongue coating color, which counted in the range of (5, 20) were sequently associated with gastric antrum mucosal erythema /macula. A, one value of tongue body color, which counted in the range of (0, 20), was related to both gastric antrum mucosal hyperemia or edema and gastric antrum mucosal erythema /macula. a, one value of tongue coating color, which counted in the range of (15, 35), was associated with gastric antrum mucosal erythema / macula. There are a total of 9 strong correlation rules. Cyanotic tongue, slippery fur, yellow fur, the CIE Lab value of tongue coating, a, the value of tongue body color, spotted tongue, and tooth-marked tongue are all related to the gastric antrum mucosal hyperemia or edema and gastric antrum mucosal erythema / macula. The conditions of gastric mucosa could be predicted by the examination of the above related image information of tongue.
