Effect of electroacupuncture or moxibustion of “Tianshu” (ST25) on intragastric pressure in rats
Objective To observe the effect of electroacupunctur(EA)and moxibustion of left or right"Tianshu"(ST25)on intragastric pressure(IGP)in normal rats.MethodsTwenty male SD rats were equally and randomly divided into EA group and moxibustion group. EA(2 Hz/15 Hz
2 mA)or moxibustion(46—48 ℃)was applied to unilateral ST25 for 2 min. The IGP was detected by using a pressure-transducer and an amplifier before and after EA or moxibustion.ResultsCompared with pre-intervention
the IGP was significantly decreased after EA or moxibustion stimulation of both left and right ST25(P<0. 05). The IGP levels during 0—30 s and 30—60 s of EA stimulation of both left and right ST25 were significantly lower than those of moxibustion(P<0. 05). The IGP-lowering effect of EA on the left ST25 was evidently stronger than that of the right ST25(P<0. 05)
but without significant difference between the bilateral sides in moxibustion-induced IGP reduction(P>0. 05).ConclusionBoth EA and moxibustion of ST25 can lower IGP
and the effect of EA is significantly stronger than that of moxibustion in normal rats. In addition
the IGP-lowering effect of EA of the left ST25 is markedly stronger than that of the right ST25
