The preliminary study on the regulation of lesions’ distribution of recalcitrant psoriasis vulgaris on twelve cutaneous regions
Abstract：Objective Through observing the location of lesions of recalcitrant psoriasis vulgaris on twelve cutaneous regions, analyze the regulation of lesions distribution and the regulation between three different Chinese medicine patterns of psoriasis vulgaris (blood heat pattern, blood stasis pattern and blood dryness pattern), to establish the basis of the perfection of the theory of syndrome differentiation and treatment in psoriasis and make the better therapeutic effect. Methods Observe the location of the lesions of recalcitrant psoriasis vulgaris. Draw the main parts of lesions on the graph of twelve cutaneous regions and mark which cutaneous regions they were in. Summarize the lesions’ frequency of occurrence on twelve cutaneous regions and sequence the percentage of frequency of occurrence. Analyze the regulation of distribution of lesions in the twelve cutaneous regions and the regulation in different patterns. Results The frequency difference of lesions distribution of recalcitrant psoriasis vulgaris on cutaneous regions was statistically significant (P<0.05). Lesions are mainly distributed in the bladder meridian, stomach meridian, gallbladder meridian, liver meridian and spleen meridian. The distribution ratios of the lesions of different patterns of recalcitrant psoriasis vulgaris (blood heat pattern, blood stasis pattern and blood dryness pattern) and ratios which compared to the overall were not statistically signiifcant (P>0.05). Conclusion These ifndings suggest that there is some regularity in the distribution of lesions of recalcitrant psoriasis vulgaris in twelve cutaneous regions;there is no signiifcant correlation between the distribution of lesions of recalcitrant psoriasis vulgaris in the twelve cutaneous regions and different TCM patterns by blood.
