Fifty patients took the Conell Medical Index test (CMI) twice; once at the time of the first visit, and again when the condition improved. The changes between the two tests were recorded.
Shifts in the classifications and profile of the CMI were examined, and the results were as fol-lows :
(1) There were 16, 23, 5 and 6 cases of the type I, II, III and IV repectively, at the first time. There were 23, 18, 6 and 3 cases of the type I, II, III and IV when the condition improved.
(2) When the shift in the profile of CMI was analyzed more closely, there were no significant differrences.
(3) The 50 patients were devided into two groups;
a local or general physiological-origin group with 36 cases, and a psychological-origin group with 14 cases. There were no differences in the number of psychological complaints before and after the treatments between the two groups, but the number of the physical complaints de-creased after treatments in the psychological-origin group.
