电针对山羊皮层诱发电位和骨髓表面诱发电位的影响

本文报道了15头山羊电刺激胫神经引起的大脑皮层诱发电位(CEP)和脊髓表面诱发电位(SSP)被电针抑制的情况。其结果是:CEP和SSP被电针抑制的程度不同,当CEP被完全抑制时,SSP(负电位)仅受到轻度抑制。提示电针对伤害性刺激传入冲动引起的诱发电位的抑制作用,在大脑皮层比在脊髓强。至于其中痛成分的抑制情况如何有待进一步探讨。     

分线排刺治疗神经根型颈椎病疗效观察

目的:观察分线取穴排刺法治疗神经根型颈椎病的临床疗效。方法:采用廉玉麟老师根据临床经验所创的颈椎分线排刺方法,取第1和第3侧线穴位排刺治疗神经根型颈椎病34例,并随机选择30例以传统针刺相应颈椎夹脊穴治疗作为对照组。结果:治疗组总有效率为85.29%,对照组为56.67%,治疗组2个疗程有效率为62.07%,对照组为35.29%,两组数据经统计学处理均有显著差异(P<0.05)。结论:分线排刺治疗神经根型颈椎病的临床疗效显著,同时可以缩短疗程,明显优于传统针灸法。     

针刺为主治疗肩周炎临床疗效观察

根据祖国传统医学,肩周炎属中医经筋病,病因是中老年人气血不足、并常因劳损或感受风寒等诱因而发病,疼痛常有固定痛点,疼痛尤甚,遇冷则痛剧,有得温则痛缓解等特点,严重者影响日常工作和生活.而现代医学的有关理论及朱汉章数十年临床观察研究认为：肩周炎的根本病因是泌失调所致.所以治疗中采用疏经脉、行气活血,调节内分泌平衡为原则,临床中采用多向透刺剥离法可松解粘连、解除痉挛、行气活血,沟通经穴和非经穴,并在组织内,机械能转化为热能,此热能使小血管扩张,小血管扩张,加强了局部的肌肉组织平衡,同时起到补气活血的作用.中药外敷起到疏通经脉,活血化瘀,使局部肌肉组织得到充足的营养.治疗中观察到二者结合使用,起到协同和互补作用提高治疗效果,缩短治疗时间.     

EFFECT OF ACUPUNCTURE ON ELECTROMYOGRAPH OF MYOSITIS AND PATHOLOGY OF MUSCLE

An animal model of experimental polymyositis(EPM)similar to humampolymyositis(PM)was made by immuning with skeletal muscular homogenate of rabbits.We treatedthem by acupuncturing Zusanli(ST 36)and Xuehai(SP 10)for 8 consecutive weeks and comparedthem with control group.The changes of electromyogram and muscular pathology were analysed.The results show that all changes in acupuncture group are milder than that in control group and sug-gest that acupuncture has some beneficial adjustment for the immunity of PM.     

针刺麻醉用于颈部中小手术286例临床观察

目的：观察针刺麻醉用于颈部手术麻醉的效果。方法：对286例颈部手术的患者取双侧扶突穴，接上海6805针麻仪，诱导20～30min，切皮前10min静脉滴注度冷丁1mg／kg、氟哌啶5mg。手术时间50-165min，平均105min。结果：手术效果Ⅰ级(优)122例(42．7％)，Ⅱ级(良)158例(55．2％)，Ⅲ级(可)6例(2．1％)，Ⅳ级(失败)0例。总有效率100．0％，优良率97．9％。结论：针麻用于颈部中小手术效果良好。     

电针对家兔血压及血清电解质浓度的影响

静脉滴注去甲肾上腺素造成家兔实验性高血压，电针两侧“足三里”穴位后，高血压位降低（P＜0.05）。股动脉放血造成家兔失血性低血压，电针拟“人中”、“承浆”穴位后．低血压值显著升高（P＜0．01）。家免失血性低血压时，血清钾离子含量升高。P＜0.01），电针后血钾含量降低。     

人迎穴的局解特征及其主治功能浅析

采用5具经甲醛固定的成人头颈部标本,穴位注射墨汁,解剖人迎穴进针时所涉及的层次结构及相邻重要器官;阐明了人迎穴定位及进针时注意事项,并以现代医学观点探讨了该穴位的主治作用机理。     

Beyond paradigm: making transcultural connections in a scientific translation of acupuncture

This paper examines the ways in which the acupuncture phenomenon is translated into scientific language through the mobilization of functional magnetic resonance imaging. In doing so, it explores how differences between science and traditional medicine are bridged and negotiated through an open-ended tuning process among heterogeneous elements. By showing the constructive interaction between traditional medicine and science, I aim to refute a conception of East Asian medicines as culturally bounded and to provide an interpretation of transculturalism that emphasizes its diverse and hybrid formations. Particularly, in order to explain the scientific translation of acupuncture, I refer to Andrew Pickering's "mangle of practice" as an alternative to Thomas Kuhn's paradigm. Adopting a performative perspective rather than a representational one with regard to science, I read the scientific interpretation of acupuncture as an interactive stabilization between the acupuncture phenomenon, neurological theory, and the material procedure of the MRI machine.
