Abstract A Comparison for Constitutional Body Type between Korean and Chinese-Korean- Using Propensity Score Matching - Hoseok Kim, Younghwa Baek, Siwoo Lee, Jonghyang YooKorea Institute of Oriental MedicineObjectivesThe body shape was a key information for diagnosing the Sasang constitution (SC) in Sasang constitutional medicine. The aim of this study was to compare the body shapes and mainly focusing on the Korean and Chinese-KoreanMethods We calculated the propensity score for each SC type in males and females separately, and compared body shape including 8 circumference and 5 width between Korean and Chinese-Korean according to the sex and SC.

朝鲜族与朝鲜族体质类型比较——基于倾向得分匹配

【摘要】朝鲜族体质体质类型与朝鲜族体质体质类型的比较——基于倾向得分匹配——金虎硕，白永华，李世宇，柳钟香韩国东方医学研究所目的体型是沙尚体质医学中诊断沙尚体质的关键信息。本研究的目的是比较朝鲜族和朝鲜族的体型，主要集中在朝鲜族和朝鲜族。方法我们分别计算了男性和女性的每种SC类型的倾向得分，并根据性别和SC比较了朝鲜族和朝鲜族的体型，包括8围和5宽。结果韩国人的躯干和臀部面积比中国朝鲜族大，而中国朝鲜族的腹部面积比韩国人大。大多数变量在SC类型之间存在显著差异，无论是朝鲜族还是朝鲜族。特别是，与其他SC型相比，太极民(TE)型的体型最大，韩国人和中国朝鲜族之间的体型相似。结论朝鲜族和朝鲜族分别以TE型体型最大，其次为小阳人(SY)和小阳人(SE)。这些结果表明，中国朝鲜族的体型与韩国朝鲜族相似。关键词:
