“…For decades, TKM experts have attempted to standardize various TKM diagnostic methods through clinical trials. [4][5][6] As a result, validated tools such as questionnaires for Qi stagnation 4 and yin-deficiency, 5 tongue diagnostic device, 6 iridology, 7 and pulse diagnostic classification 8 were developed. However, standardization and quantification of AE have not been performed before.…”

Exaggerated anticipatory anxiety is common in social anxiety disorder (SAD). Neuroimaging studies have revealed altered neural activity in response to social stimuli in SAD, but fewer studies have examined neural activity during anticipation of feared social stimuli in SAD. The current study examined the time course and magnitude of activity in threat processing brain regions during speech anticipation in socially anxious individuals and healthy controls (HC). Method Participants (SAD n = 58; HC n = 16) underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) during which they completed a 90s control anticipation task and 90s speech anticipation task.

“…The first difference is the proportion of the tongue coating area. The a * dimension of the TDCH, which describes the intensity of the red color, is one of the crucial parameters of the tongue body and coating [12]. Figure 3 shows areas corresponding to the color ranges of the seven variables in a tongue image.…”

“…The CTIS measured the TCT, which is widely used in clinical tongue diagnosis as an objective and useful parameter [22, 23]. The cut-off points that separated no coating ( 薄胎 ) and thick coating ( 厚苔 ) from thin coating (normal) were 29.06% and 63.51%, respectively [23].…”
