      摘要:To investigate the influence of electroacupuncture (EA) on learning and memory in vascular dementia (VD) rats.Methods:70 SD rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: normal control group (n=10),false operation group (n=10), VD model group (n=15), VD model + EA group (n=17) and VD model + medication group (n=18).VD model was established by using a modified Pulsinelli's 4 vessel occlusion method. And then all the rats accepted Morris water maze test and accorded with our experimental demands. In rats of EA group, “Baihui" (DU 20)and “Dachangshu" (GB 14) were punctured and stimulated with an EA Therapeutic Apparatus. SD rats in medication group were administered with nimotop. Results:After generation of VD, the learning and memory capability of rats in VD model, VD model + EA and VD model + medication groups declined apparently in comparison with that of control group and false operation group. However, comparison between VD model group and EA+VD model group or VD + medication group showed that both EA and medication could obviously improve the learning and memory capability (P<0.01); and the effect of EA was superior to that of medication. Conclusion: EA can improve the learning and memory ability in VD rats.

      摘要:In order to study the collateral projections from the parabrachial nucleus to the spinal cord and the nucleus of solitary tract in the rat, the fluorescent double labeling method was used in the present study.After PI and Bb were injected into the caudal part of the nucleus of solitary tract and the ipsilateral dorsal horn of the spinal cord respectively, PI labeled, Bb labeled and PI/Bb double labeled neurons were observed in the Kolliker Fuse nucleus(K F)which is a subnucleus of the parabrachial nucleus. The percentages of PI labeled,Bb labeled and PI/Bb double labeled neurons to all labeled neurons in the K F were 43.62%,40.08%and 16.28% respectively.Most of the double labeled neurons were multipolar and trangular.The diameters of the double labeled neuronal cell bodies were between 10 to 18 μm. The projections from the parabrachial nucleus to the spinal cord might transmit the somatosensory information,while the projections from the parabrachial nucleus to nucleus of solitary tract might transmit the visceral information. Those PI/Bb double labeled neurons in the K F that project directly to both the nucleus of the solitary tract and the spinal cord may simultaneously transmit somatosensory information and visceral information to exert modulatory influences upon neurons in the solitary tract and the spinal cord.

      摘要:To investigate the role and interrelation of nitric oxide and β receptor in moxibustion treatment of asthma in guinea pigs. Method: 50 guinea pigs were randomly divided into five groups: (1) control group(A); (2)asthma group(B); (3)moxibustion group(C); (4)L NAME group(D); and (5)L NAME plus moxibustion group(E). The Bmax and kd (equilibrium dissociation constant)of β receptors of the lung tissue cellular membrane, and nitric oxide (NO - 2/NO - 3)levels in the plasma, bronchovesicular lavage fluid (BALF)and lung tissues were examined. Result: In comparison with control group, BALF NO - 2/NO - 3 content of group B increased, while the Bmax of the combination of the lung cellular membrane agent and 3 H DHA decreased. Compared with group B, the contents of NO - 2/NO - 3in BALF of group C, D and E decreased, while the Bmax values in the above 3 groups increased, had no obvious change and increased separately. Conclusion: During moxibustion treatment, nitric oxide and the Bmax of β receptors presented a negative correlation while L NAME hadn't any obvious affection on the Bmax of β receptors in guinea pigs.

      摘要:The effect of lateral cerebroventricular microinjection of norepinephrine(NE) on acute myocardial ischemia (AMI) and the influence of lateral cerebroventricular microinjection of phentolamine or propranolol on the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) of “Neiguan”(PC 6)in improving AMI were observed in 49 rabbits. The results showed that: (1) lateral cerebroventricular microinjection of NE could slow down the recovery of AMI; (2)EA of “Neiguan”(PC 6) could accelerate the recovery of AMI; (3) lateral cerebroventricular microinjection of phentolamine abolished the effect of EA, but propranolol did not. The facts suggest that central adrenergic system participates in the action of EA at “Neiguan”in ameliorating AMI. EA of “Neiguan” plays its role probably by way of activating central α receptors and inhibiting central β receptors.

      摘要:To test the protective effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on gastrointestinal functions and its therapeutic effect in ameliorating gastric motor disorders under psychological stress. Ninety six male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly and evenly divided into control group, psychological stress (PS) group and EA plus PS group. Animal model of gastric motor disorder was established by lighting and electric shock stimulation. “Zusanli”(ST 36) was punctured and stimulated with electric current for 30 min, and the electrical activity of dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus nerve(DMV) was recorded extracellularly with glass micro pippetes and EGG(Electro Gastro Graph) with the serosa method. The firing rates of DMV neurons in normal rats were lower and the EGG was regular in the amplitude and frequency. Under psychological stress, the spontaneous electrical activity of DMV neurons was irregular (increase in firing rate) and EGG had obvious abnormal changes in the amplitude and frequency. After EA of“Zusanli”(ST 36), the stress induced changes (including neural electrical activity and EGG) turned to normal basically. It suggests that psychological stress may lead to gastric motor disorder, while EA of“Zusanli” possesses protective and regulative action on gastric functional activity.

      摘要:Some reports showed that pressing the meridian travelling course could decrease the effect of acupuncture in subjects with or without propagated sensation along meridians (PSM). Can pressing the meridian travelling course affect the variation of oxygen partial pressure (PO 2) in deep tissues along the meridian during acupuncture? To solve this problem, thirty healthy volunteers without PSM were subjected into this observation. Three points of the Large Intestine Meridian were selected, and a medial and a lateral point 2 cm from each measured point were taken as the control sites. One hundred and twenty times of observation were performed, the results showed:(1) the measured points decreased during puncturing Hegu (LI 4), while the PO 2 in the points of the meridian decreased more remarkably than that in control sites; (2)when the pressure was applied to the meridian travelling course, the variation rate of PO 2 in the points along the meridian decreased obviously (P<0.05), but there were no any marked changes in the control sites; (3) the difference of the variation rate of PO 2 between the pressed point and non pressed point was significant when the pressure was applied to the meridian travelling course. If the pressure was applied to the control sites beside the meridian course, the above mentioned results were not found. The results support the suggestion that there may be a certain substantial advancing process along the meridian course during acupuncture. It is thus possible that when blocking this process by mechanical pressure, the effect of acupuncture stimulation will be poor.

      摘要:To observe the therapeutic effect of acupuncture on the blood rheology in senile vertigo patients. Methods: 62 vertigo patients aged from 60 to 73 years were subjected into this study. Acupoint groups selected were 1) Neiguan (PC 6), Zusanli (ST 36), Yanglingquan (GB 34), Sanyinjiao (SP 6), Hegu (LI 4) and Taichong (LR 3); 2) Fenchi (GB 20), Geshu (BL 17) and Ganshu (BL 18). Treatment was given once daily, with 6 sessions being a therapeutic course. 12 items of indexes of blood rheology as whole blood vesicosity, hematocrit, hemagglutination index, red blood distortion index, etc were determined. Results: After 5 courses of acupuncture treatment, patients' clinical symptoms of vertigo, sleep, appetite, oppressed feeling in chest and palpitation disappeared or improved, and whole blood vesicosity, hematocrit and hemagglutination index lowered significantly in comparison with pre treatment. It suggests that acupuncture induced improvement of blood rheology may contribute to the disappearance of symptoms in senile vertigo patients.

      摘要:To study the effect of β EP in treatment of acute cerebral infarction by using penetration needling of scalp points. Method: 30 acute cerebral infarction patients were treated with penetration acupuncture from Baihui (GV 20) to Qianding (GV 21), and from Shuaigu (GB 8) to Xuanli (GB 6) plus electrical stimulation, once daily, with 14 days being a therapeutic course, two courses all together. Another 30 normal subjects were chosen as control group. Radioimmunoassay(RIA)was adopted to determine plasma β EP level. Result: Plasma β EP content in acute cerebral infarction patients increased significantly in comparison with that of normal subjects. After stimulation of scalp points, plasma β EP level lowered apparently compared with pre treatment (P<0.01). Conclusion: Scalp point penetration needling may improve blood supply of cerebral cells in the focus of infarction by adjusting the content of plasma β EP in patients with acute cerebral infarction.

      摘要:To research the clinical effect of point injection and motor therapy for treatment of degenerative neck osteoarthritis (NOA) by means of randomized controlled trial so as to seek a new effective therapy. Subjects and Methods: 60 patients with NOA were randomly divided into trial group (30 cases) and control group (30 cases). The former group was treated with point injection plus motor therapy, and the latter was treated with motor therapy plus ultrashortwave therapy(continuous wave, micro heat, 20 min every time, twice a day and 4 weeks all together). Then, the clinical symptoms and functional activity before and after treatment were assessed and dealt with Student's t Test.Results: After treatment, the pain of the neck in the two groups was relieved significantly([WT5BX]P<0.001),but the joint functional improvement of the former group was superior to that of the later group markedly([WT5BX]P<0.01).Except blood platelet(plt),indexes of the hemorheology in trial group were improved markedly(P<0.05). Conclusion: Point injection and motor therapy can not only relieve the pain caused by NOA, but also improve the functional activity and the hemorheology significantly.

      摘要:cases of allergic bronchial asthma were treated by acupuncture of Dazhui (GV 14), Feishu (BL 13),Dingchuan (EX B 1), Pishu (BL 20), Shenshu (BL 23), Fengchi (GB 20), etc. Among them, 7 cases were mild type and 18 moderate type. Supernate IL 4 activity in cultured PBMC (peripheral B mononuclear cell) derived from asthma patients was determined by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay and serum total IgE content determined by using double antibody sandwich enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. After one course of treatment, results revealed that patients' symptoms were improved remarkably, with the total effective rate being 96%. Before treatment, supernate IL 4 activity in cultured PBMC and the total content of IgE in serum were significantly higher than those of healthy subjects(25 cases, P<0.01)). After treatment, the above mentioned index values lowered obviously in comparison with pre treatment (P<0.05). The fact suggests that acupuncture can inhibit IL 4 activity and lower serum total IgE content in allergic bronchial asthma patients.

      摘要:The analgesic effect of 3 kinds of therapies, electroacupuncture (EA), EA combined with half dose of dolantin (EAHDD) and full dose of dolantin (FDD) on postoperative pain was observed and compared in 30 cases of protrusion of lumbar intervertebral disc after surgical operation. It was found that postoperative pain did not appear in 9 of the 10 cases and slight pain occurred in the rest one case on the same day after the operation in EA group. The excellent or good analgesic rate of EA group was higher than that of either EAHDD group or FDD group (P<0. 01), and the excellent and good analgesic rate of the EAHDD group was higher than that of FDD group on the first day after the operation (P<0.05). Excellent analgesic effect was obtained in all the three groups on the 3rd day after the operation. Compared with the effect of dolantin, the analgesic effect of EA initiated later, but remained longer. In order to strengthen the strong point and offset the weakness, the combination of the two therapies with a reduced dose of anesthetics is advisable. Therefore, we advocate that EA should be applied earlier after operation to prevent pain occurrence. If pain still appears after EA, a half dose of dolantin may be used to achieve the best analgesic effect.

      摘要:To observe the therapeutic effect of acupuncture combined with otopoint pellet pressure therapy for treatment of simple obesity patients with different ages and various duration of disease. Methods: 118 simple obesity patients were divided into 4 groups according to the age: 1) below 20 year old group (n=29), 2) 20~ 30 year old group (n=32), 3) 31~40 year old group (n=30), and 4) above 40 year old group (n=27), and another 4 groups according to the duration of disease: a) below 1 year group (n=21), b) 1~5 year group (n=57), c) 6~10 year group (n=30) and d) above 10 year group (n=10). Indexes of body weight, body weight index and ratio of waistline and hipline were used to assess the therapeutic effect. Otopoints Ershenmen (MA TF 1), Bianmi point, Dachang (MA SC 4), Xiaochang (MA SC 2), Pi (MA IC), Wei(MA IC), Dan (EX LE 6), etc were selected and stimulated by pressing the adhered vaccaria seeds and body acupoints used were Yinlingquan (SP 9), Sanyinjiao (SP 9), Zusanli (ST 36), Xuehai (SP 10), Tianshu (ST 25), etc. Results: After one course of treatment (30 days), the total effective rates of group 1 ~4 were 93.1%, 84.4%, 80.0% and 63.0% separately and those of group a~d 95.2%, 86.0%, 80.0% and 20.0% respectively. It suggests that the younger the age and the shorter the duration of disease, the better is the therapeutic effect. Thus, simple obesity should be treated earlier.

      摘要:Simple obesity is one of the common and frequently encountered diseases. A marked therapeutic effect has been obtained in treating it by using acupuncture and moxibustion therapies. According to modern researches, its possible mechanisms include: 1) acu moxi can suppress patients' overeating appetite, correspondingly, the hyperactivity of the absorbing function of the stomach and intestines is also restrained, reducing the intake of energy; and 2) acu moxi can facilitate energy metabolism, increase energy consumption and promote lipodieresis, resulting in successive reduction of weight at last. The therapeutic effect of acu moxi in weight reduction is realized by way ofadjustment of neuroendocrine activities. In this paper, the writers review the mechanisms of acu moxi treatment of simple obesity on the basis of clinical researches and animal experiments and put forward some viewpoints on the study of acu moxi treatment of simple obesity in the future.
