Abstract
Oriental medicine explains that Kikyo (deficiency of Qi) is an exhausted state of the human body's energy. Hence a lack of energy state could be equal to a state of low metabolism. It would affect any blood test. Kikyo-scores were evaluated in 333 new patients who had visited our clinic within a 13-month period, and their blood samples were collected on the same days. A chi-square test was done with the Kikyo cases, indicating points of 30 and above of Kikyo-score, and patients who indicated lower than standard levels in their blood tests. A relationship between Kikyo, and points lower than normal chemical screening test values was proved (p<0.0001). Forty-nine percent of Kikyo-patients were under normal limits, but the positive predictive ratio was85%. We have to recognize it is an exhaustive Qi state we see, when chemical screening data values are low.
