Objective To discuss the rule of distribution of TCM syndromes of Psoriasis (Ps).Methods The 205 Ps vulgaris outpatients were investigated and the case research forms were filled in.Based on the diagnosis standard of TCM syndromes
the patients were differentiated into different syndromes.The correlation between the syndromes and clinical materials were discussed.Results The main TCM syndromes of Ps were blood heat
blood stasis
blood dryness
blood heat-stasis
blood heat-dryness and blood stasis-dryness.The distribution of these six main syndromes in different ages
disease stages
and recurrent time in different groups was significantly different (P<0.01).Conclusion In the progressive stage of Ps
the blood heat syndrome accompanied with blood stasis and blood dryness is the main manifestation.In the resting stage
it is mostly manifested as blood heat-stasis syndrome.In the regressive stage
the blood dryness syndrome is commonly seen.Therefore the treatment not only depending on the disease stages of modern medicine but also following the TCM syndromes should be adopted in practice.
