"Machine Learning Analysis of Lingual Colorimetry and MADRS Anxiety-Depression Score in Acupuncture Patients"
Sponsor: Dr Benoit Bataille
Summary
This observational study aims to assess the potential relationship between tongue colorimetry (using standardized photographic techniques) and anxiety-depression scores measured by the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) in acupuncture patients. Data will be analyzed using machine learning methods to determine whether tongue color features correlate with MADRS scores, possibly contributing to a novel, non-invasive diagnostic tool for anxiety and depression assessment in clinical practice. Participation involves only tongue photography and completion of questionnaires, without any invasive procedures or treatment modifications.
