Description

In order to evaluate the diagnostic values of sprash sound of the abdomen and plain X-ray findings of the stomach for “INAI-TEISUI” (the water-imbalance syndrome), correlation between these two factors and the symptoms associated with the “INAI-TEISUI” were surveyed statistically.<BR>The study revealed that sprash sound of the abdomen was closely related with the abdominal symptoms of the water-imbalance syndrome, and that the type A of the stomach characterized by blowted, atonic wall with prominent longitudinal folds in the plain X-ray findings was related with systemic symptoms of the water-imbalance syndrome such as dizziness, tinnitus, rhinorrhea and sneezing.<BR>These results suggest that both sprash sound of the abdomen and plain X-ray findings of the stomach are useful for the diagnosis of the “INAI-TEISUI”, though they give a slight different information.
