  • Electroencephalogram activity induced by magnetic stimulation on heart Meridian
    Neuroscience Letters, 2011
    Co-Authors: Han-gue Jo, Gi-ho Jo
    Abstract:

    Many studies on the effects of acupuncture on brain activity have been concerned with the stimulation of specific acu-points. However, research on brain activity with the stimulation of the Body-Meridian line is still quite novel. The hypothesis of the present study is that heart Meridian stimulations with different directions of line-magnet poles would elicit different effects on EEG activity. Twenty-three healthy young adults between the age of 19 and 22 years old participated in the experiment. Two tiny NEO line-magnets were applied to stimulate the heart Meridian. EEG activities were changed significantly between different treatments on the heart Meridian using line-magnet with different directions of magnetic poles (p < 0.05). The present study shows that the stimulation of the heart Meridian with the line-magnets has an effect on brain activity associated with the direction of the line-magnet pole.

  • Effect of Acu-Magnetic Stimulation on Heart Rate Variability
    Medical Acupuncture, 2011
    Co-Authors: Han-gue Jo, Gi-ho Jo
    Abstract:

    Abstract Background: The study of magnets applied to acupuncture points in the human Body has already been researched. However, the study of Body Meridian stimulation using line-magnets is novel. Objective: This study aims to investigate the effect on the heart rate variability (HRV) through stimulation on the Heart Meridian with line-magnets. Design, Setting, and Patients: Twenty-five healthy young adults participated between March and June 2009 at the Institute of Health and Environment at Kongju National University. Intervention: Two line-magnets were applied to the section of Meridians on the wrists of both arms. Main Outcome Measure: HRV was analyzed via electrocardiogram (ECG) records. Results: During the Heart Meridian test, the mean heart rate (mHR), low frequency (LF), and low frequency/high frequency ratio (LF/HF) showed significant changes between the stimulations with different directions of magnetic poles (mHR: P = 0.001; LF: P = 0.032; LF/HF: P = 0.006). Conclusions: These results suggest th...

  • Meridians of the Body Sonic Skin Conductivity Experimental Observation of Volume
    Journal of Liaoning University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, 2010
    Co-Authors: Chen Xuan-yu
    Abstract:

    Objective:To objective detection of sound wave have dredge Meridians characteristics of biological physics.Methods:The skin resistance measurement techniques,determination of sound waves to stimulate the acupuncture points of human skin before and after the Meridians conductive volume of the corresponding changes in sound waves of observation and that the physiological role of the human Body.Results:After the sound waves interfere with the human Body Meridian skin than a marked increase in electrical conductivity,P0.01;wave typeⅡ(Acoustic-electric complex wave)interfere with skin conductivity higher than the amount of wave-typeⅠ(sound waves),P0.01;Acoustic of yin,yang of two by the impact of the volume of the skin conductivity is similar to.Conclusion:The sound waves have a characteristic could lower human electrical impedance and the characteristics lie on the boost strength,the electrode pressure.

  • The 8th International Auriculotherapy Symposium: From Nogier to Nogier and So Much More
    Medical Acupuncture, 2014
    Co-Authors: C Niemtzowrichard
    Abstract:

    Astonishing is the best way to describe the 8th International Auriculotherapy Symposium being held from May 8–10, 2014, on The Johns Hopkins University campus, in Rockville, MD. For the first time in the symposium’s history, the very best of the international auriculotherapy experts are coming to America. Why is this symposium held in such high esteem? The previous symposiums were organized by the prestigious French Lyon Group of Medical Studies (GLEM), Lyon, France. Paul Nogier (1908–1996) created this group. Paul Nogier is well-respected for his development of French auriculotherapy and auriculomedicine. His son, Raphael Nogier, continues to promote the knowledge that his late father contributed to auriculotherapy. All of us who study acupuncture know and respect the impact of Paul Nogier. The French have a long tradition of fostering this discipline. Like a huge magnet, the GLEM attracts the top worldwide clinicians and researchers. Two Special Issues of Medical Acupuncture appear just in time for the symposium. I am sure that these ‘‘supercharged’’ Special Issues will be wellappreciated by our readership. This first Special Issue (for April) presents a full range of articles by international auriculotherapy experts: Raphael Nogier delineates the challenges the late Paul Nogier faced in establishing the map of the ear. Pierre Rabischong and Claudie Terral discuss the state of the art of auriculotherapy. Marco Romili and colleagues deal with persistent postoperative pain, which can occur when total knee replacement procedures are performed; this pain is a very common clinical challenge. Terry Oleson examines standardized ear acupuncture nomenclature with a system he devised using three-dimensional landmarks. Gary Stanton and Claire-Marie Rangon discuss the well-known auriculotherapy program at the University of Paris XI and XIII, and Lorna Kwai-Ping Suen and Chao Hsing Yeh present a study on auricular diagnosis in patients with chronic illnesses. Frank R. Bahr provides a report describing the use of ‘‘High Energy’’ points on a Body Meridian, which may also be found on the ear. These points may have clinical interest with respect to patients with cancer pending further investigation. The second Special Issue (for June, but, as noted, available at the symposium) will provide eight more vital contributions to the field. I have the honor to be designated the Chairperson/ Organizer of this symposium by the GLEM. It is my wish that these Special Issues will reflect the excitement of this outstanding symposium—and that these issues will prove to be a most valuable resource of the finest clinical presentations and workshops on auriculotherapy in the world. With these goals in mind, Medical Acupuncture has carefully selected some of the best articles derived from the symposium. Share with us the excitement as you read the articles in the Special Issues. For those of you who could not attend the Symposium, we share the best contributions to the Symposium in Medical Acupuncture. I wish to thank my editorial staff who helped make those Special Issues possible: Many thanks to Yael Benporat, Anne Hendren, and Billie M. Spaight. Last but not least, I wish to thank Terry Oleson for his advice and recommendations to formulate this Symposium and the generous gift of his time.

  • human Body Meridian spatial decision support system for clinical treatment and teaching of acupuncture and moxibustion
    Chinese acupuncture & moxibustion, 2016
    Co-Authors: Dehua Wu
    Abstract:

    : The spatial position and distribution of human Body Meridian are expressed limitedly in the decision support system (DSS) of acupuncture and moxibustion at present, which leads to the failure to give the effective quantitative analysis on the spatial range and the difficulty for the decision-maker to provide a realistic spatial decision environment. Focusing on the limit spatial expression in DSS of acupuncture and moxibustion, it was proposed that on the basis of the geographic information system, in association of DSS technology, the design idea was developed on the human Body Meridian spatial DSS. With the 4-layer service-oriented architecture adopted, the data center integrated development platform was taken as the system development environment. The hierarchical organization was done for the spatial data of human Body Meridian via the directory tree. The structured query language (SQL) server was used to achieve the unified management of spatial data and attribute data. The technologies of architecture, configuration and plug-in development model were integrated to achieve the data inquiry, buffer analysis and program evaluation of the human Body Meridian spatial DSS. The research results show that the human Body Meridian spatial DSS could reflect realistically the spatial characteristics of the spatial position and distribution of human Body Meridian and met the constantly changeable demand of users. It has the powerful spatial analysis function and assists with the scientific decision in clinical treatment and teaching of acupuncture and moxibustion. It is the new attempt to the informatization research of human Body Meridian.
