摘要:目的:探讨穴位敷贴治疗哮喘的机理。方法:将40只豚鼠随机分为正常对照组、哮喘模型组、穴位敷贴组、地塞米松组,每组10只。处理结束后采用酶联免疫吸附测定法检测血清E、P选择素水平。结果:模型组豚鼠血清E、P选择素水平明显高于正常对照组(P<0.01),穴位敷贴组和地塞米松组血清E、P选择素水平明显低于模型组(P<0.01)。结论:穴位敷贴可明显降低哮喘豚鼠血清E、P选择素的水平,这可能是其治疗哮喘的作用机理之一。Objective:To investigate the underlying mechanism of acupoint application in the treatment of asthma.Methods: Forty Hartly guinea-pigs were randomized into control,model,acupoint application and dexamethasone(DEX) groups.Asthma model was established by intraperitoneal injection of 10% egg albumin and 1% egg albumin aerosol inhaling method.Herbal cake made up of Mahuang(麻黄Herba Ephedrae),Xixin(细辛Herba Asari),Gansui(甘遂Radix Euphorbiae Kansui),etc was applied to "Dazhui"(GV 14),"Feishu"(BL 13) and "Shenshu"(BL 23),6 h every time, once every other day,7 days altogether.For rats of DEX group,DEX(0.5 mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally.Blood samples were collected for detecting E-selectin and P-selectin contents by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results: The levels of serum E-selectin and P-selectin of model group were significantly higher than those of normal control group(P<0.01).Compared with model group,the levels of serum E-selectin and P-selectin of acupoint application group and DEX group were significantly lower(P
摘要:本文总结了《内经》对气至的认识,提出气至即是气调,在《内经》中可分三种情况。气至可通过医者感觉和患者感觉体现出来。《内经》把气至作为针刺取效的关键,故明确气至的实质,对于针灸临床具有重要的指导意义。In the present paper,the authors sum up the term of acupuncture,"arrival of Qi" in Chinese medical classic Huangdi Neijing(《黄帝内经》The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic),from 1) the connotation,2) the patient's and the operator's feelings,and 3) the clinical significance.The authors think that "arrival of Qi" means favorable regulation of Qi."Arrival of Qi" is different from "Deqi"(achieving needling sensations).There are three kinds of statuses about "arrival of Qi" in Huangdi Neijing,namely,a) extinction of pathogenic factors and restoration of the patient's resistance,b) balance of activities of "Rong"-Qi and "Wei"-Qi(functional activities) in the human body,and c) normalization of the disordered Qi.In case of "arrival of Qi",the patient may feel comfortable around the focus or in the whole body or experience warm or cool feeling in the punctured area;and the operator may have a tightening feeling beneath the acupuncture needle tip and the patient's pulse condition turns to normal.In clinic,"arrival of Qi" is the key in achieving a positive therapeutic effect.Therefore,mastering the essence of "arrival of Qi" is of higher clinical value in acupuncture treatment of diseases.
