AB - Objectives
The aim of the study was to investigate the difference between pattern identification of premenopausal(n=39) and climacteric(n=40) korean
obese and overweight women using Syndrome Differentiation Questionaire.
Methods
39 premenopausal obese women(BMI≥25kg/m2) and 40 climacteric overweight and obese women(BMI≥23kg/m2) were recruited from October
2007 to March 2008 in Seoul, Korea. Subjects who had other disease were rejected. Basic anthropometry and body composition were measured.
Every subjects were given and filled out the Syndrome Differentiation Questionaire, and we analyzed that using Fisher's exact test.
Results
1. Premenopausal women showed high frequency of food accumulation pattern(43.6%), but in climacteric women, liver qi depression pattern
was frequent(57.5%, p=0.021).
2. In weighted Syndrome Differentiation Questionaire score, Premenopausal women showed high frequency of food accumulation pattern(43.6%),
but in climacteric women, liver qi depression pattern was frequent(47.5%, p=0.004).
3. There were no correlation between anthropometry and scores of the each patterns.
Conclusions
In this study, we can find out that the dietary factors play major roles in obesity of premenopausal women and emotional factors in obese
climacteric women in the view of oriental pattern identification diagnosis. But it seemed that there lacked of consideration that reflected the
degree of obesity in this Syndrome Differentiation Questionaire.
