To study the characteristics of the Pfirrmann classification of patients with lumbar disc herniation (liver-kidney deficiency syndrome) and to explore the correlation between the two characteristics,so as to provide an objective quantitative method for TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment,and provide a clinical reference for integrative medicine therapy.Methods:A total of 50 patients with lumbar disc herniation in our hospital from November 2016 to December 2017 were selected.The clinical severity of the primary and secondary symptoms was assigned to the scores according to the diagnostic criteria.An integral scale of the symptoms and signs was established.According to the Pfirrmann grading of the patient's intervertebral disc degeneration,the collected data were processed by SPSS 20.0.The characteristics of the symptoms and signs of the lumbar disc herniation and the characteristics of each imaging index were discussed.Results:1)The total scores of symptoms and signs in 50 patients ranged from 8 to 23 points,about 15.04±3.76 points on average.There was a correlation between the scores of each main symptom and the total score,and the second main symptom was higher than that of the first main symptom.The significance of the representative was greater,and there was no obvious correlation between the secondary disease and the total score.2)In the 50 patients,the mean score of the partial yang syndrome was 14.79±3.64,and the mean score of the partial yin syndrome was 15.56±4.01.There was no significant correlation between the positive scores and the total scores of symptoms and signs.3)According to Pfirrmann grade grading statistics of intervertebral disc degeneration,grade I had 3 cases,accounting for 6%.Grade II had 1 case,accounting for 2%.Grade III had 29 cases,accounting for 58%.Grade IV had 15 cases,accounting for 30%.Grade V had 2 cases,accounting for 4%.4)Symptoms and signs were correlated with the degree of herniation,the position of herniation,and intervertebral disc degeneration on radiographic findings,and were not significantly correlated with lumbar curvature and endplate degeneration.Conclusion:1)Patients with liver-kidney deficiency syndrome of LDH have typical symptoms and signs,and the symptoms of lumbar pain and lower extremity radiating pain are the most typical in the main symptoms,and the lower limb radiating pain is more representative.Lower extremity numbness and weakness in the legs and knees were used as a reference in diagnosing the syndrome,but the diagnostic value of leg and knee fatigue was higher than that of lower limb numbness.2)There was no significant correlation between yin and yang classification and the total score of symptoms and signs in patients with liver-kidney deficiency syndrome LDH,and the severity of their clinical symptoms and signs was not significant.3)There is a certain correlation between the scores of symptoms and signs of patients with hepatic-renal deficiency syndrome lumbar disc herniation and the degree of degeneration of intervertebral discs on imaging findings.The disc degeneration is more severe,the scores of clinical symptoms and physical signs are higher.
