Description

Young female students were divided into two groups ; normal students (normal group) and students with cold constitution (cold group) . The cold group was further divided into two groups ; weak and severe cold groups. We studied the relationships among the electrocardiogram, body profiles, and the severity of the cold constitution in these groups. The body weight, body mass index (BMI), subcutaneous fat thickness, body fat rate, body fat weight in the cold group were significantly low, compared with those in the normal group. Among two cold groups (weak and severe), these data were low in proportion to the severity of cold constitution. The R-R interval and QT interval of the electrocardiogram were significantly prolonged in the cold group, dependent on the severity of the disease. The QT intervals (QTc) corrected by preceding R-R interval in the cold group were similar to those in the normal group. These findings show a significantly positive relation among the cold constitution, slender figure, and bradycardia.
