We analyzed the medical records for 944 patients, including 257 uterine myoma patients, who visited Dongeui University Oriental Medical Center from May 2001 to June 2006. We investigated the DSOM (Diagnosis System of Oriental Medicine) symptom scores which effect uterine myoma patients using stepwise logistic regression model. Logistic regression analysis indicated as follows: In the control group composed of 558 outpatients, 18 items of DSOM were associated with myoma, 9 positively and 9 negatively, and the results showed that the correct rate was equal to 81.1%, sensitivity 72.8%, and specificity 84.9%. In 129 clinical trials data, 33 items of DSOM were associated with myoma, 18 positively and 15 negatively, and the results showed that the correct rate was equal to 85.8%, sensitivity 84.8%, and specificity 87.6%. In 687 outpatient and clinical trials data, 18 items of DSOM were associated with myoma, 10 positively and 8 negatively, and the results showed that the correct rate was equal to 82.8%, sensitivity 70.8%, and specificity 87.3%.

본 연구는 만 19세 이상의 성인 여성 374명을 대상으로 비용이 저렴하고 안전한 초음파 검사를 이용하여 자궁근종을 확인하였으며, 자궁근종이 진단된 모집단과 자궁근종이 없는 대조군을 대상으로 한국어판 스트레스 척도인 BEPSI-K(Brief Encounter Psychosocial Instrument, BEPSI-K) 설문서를 이용하여 스트레스와 자궁근종과의 상관관계를 알아보았다. 초음파 검사로 진단된 자궁근종의 유병률은 29.7%로 나타났으며, BEPSI-K 설문에 따른 스트레스와 자궁근종과의 상관관계를 교차분석한 결과, 자궁근종이 진단된 모집단이 대조군에 비하여 많은 스트레스를 받는 것으로 나타났다. 통계적 유의수준은 p<0.05로 하였다. 이는 명확한 원인이 밝혀지지 않은 현대 여성의 자궁근종 발생 요인 중 스트레스가 자궁근종의 발병 원인 중의 하나 임을 확인하였다.

Objectives: We intended to identify differences of general symptoms related to existence & nonexistence of uterine myoma. Methods: We surveyed 948 women from 35 to 45 years old who had received Korean oriental medical questionnaires about general symptom patterns and abdominal & pelvic ultrasonography at Kyung-Hee University medical center from May 2007 to October 2008. After we divided the women into two (uterine myoma or normal) groups by ultrasonography result, we compared general symptom patterns of the uterine myoma group with those of the normal group. Results: In relation to digestion pattern, appetite showed statistically significant difference between the normal and uterine myoma groups. In relation to evacuation pattern, stool frequency showed statistically significant difference between the normal and uterine myoma groups. In relation to psychologic pattern, difference in oppression in the chest & palpitation showed statistical significance between the groups. In relation to the other patterns, differences in throat discomfort & hypertonicity of nape neck showed statistical significance between the normal and uterine myoma groups (p<0.05). Conclusions: The result showed that prevalence of uterine myoma should be considered in respect to digestion pattern, evacuation pattern, and psychologic pattern. We need further study after increasing the size of the uterine myoma group and improvement of general symptom questionnaires.
