Abstract:Objective To diagnose hyperuricemia more accurately and improve the clinical effect, the tongue manifestation of patients with hyperuricemia was analyzed preliminarily. Methods The tongue manifestation of 50 patients with hyperuricemia in Tianjin Wuqing Quanda Hospital by tongue manifestation analyzer from January to July 2017 was randomly collected as hyperuricemia group. At the same time, the tongue manifestation of 50 healthy persons was collected as healthy group. The RGB values of tongue color and RGB values of moss color of hyperuricemia were analyzed, and the characteristics of tongue color and moss color of hyperuricemia were analyzed preliminarily. Results There were all statistically significant differences of the tongue tip color R1, the tongue tip color G1, the tongue tip color B1, the left tongue color R2, the right tongue color R3 and the right tongue color B3 between the two groups (all P < 0.05). There were all statistically significant differences of the moss color of tongue root R4, the moss color of tongue tip R6, the moss color of tongue tip G6, the moss color of central tongue B5 and the moss color of tongue tip B6 between the two groups (all P < 0.05). Lilac or purple-red tongue, yellow or white moss seems to be the characteristics of tongue manifestation of hyperuricemia. Conclusion The tongue color and moss color of hyperuricemia have different characteristics compared with those of normal tongue color and moss color, which provides essential data for TCM prevention and treatment and efficacy evaluation of hyperuricemia.
