ABSTRACT

Objectives: This study was designed to investigate the correlation between Sasang constitutionand dyslipidemia and the possibility that Sasang constitution can be a risk factor of dyslipidemia. Methods: This study was a retrospective cross-sectional study based on chart review. Seventeenthousand sixty-nine charts which were collected from May 2007 to June 2010 in InternationalHealthcare Service Center, Kyung Hee University Medical Center, were reviewed for the study. Fifteen thousand two hundred fifty charts including Sasang constitutional diagnosis and lipidprofiling were selected and we examined the correlation between Sasang constitution anddyslipidemia. Results: After adjusted for body mass index, the levels of total cholesterol and triglyceride werehighest in Taeeum group, and lowest in Soeum group. High-density lipoprotein was highest inSoeum group, and lowest in Taeeum group. After adjusted for age, sex, and body mass index, theodds ratios for ‘high triglyceride’ were 1.716 (1.411∼2.087) in Soyang group and 2.021 (1.650∼2.475) in Taeeum group compared to Soeum group. The odds ratio for ‘high low-densitylipoprotein’ was 1.229 (1.006∼1.501) in Soyang group compared to Soeum group. The oddsratios for ‘low high-density lipoprotein’ were 1.195 (1.033∼1.381) in Soyang group and 1.414(1.212∼1.649) in Taeeum group compared to Soeum group. Conclusions: The lipid profiles and dyslipidemic risk differed across constitutional types, showingconstitution type-specific patterns, so that we could infer the possibility that Sasangconstitutional types can be a risk factor of dyslipidemia.
