Objective:To observe response of normal human brain center to sensation needling, using functional magnetic resonance
imaging.Methods:According to inclusion and exclusion criteria were collected male and female volunteers, all 35 patients were
randomly divided into 2 groups. Acupuncture group of 40 people, real acupuncture SJ5, 30 people in the control group, sham acupuncture
SJ5. Block programdesigned to stimulate use. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging technology to collect central brain stimulation
signal. The scan is complete then use acupuncture feel Scale Evaluation subjects feeling. According to feel the results of the image
data into quantization needling sensation group and the control group, no feeling. In P≤ 0.0001, uncorrected, K> 10 statistical significance
test standards to the control group without feeling as the baseline. On the Matlab software package platform SPM2.0 image data
processing and analysis.Results:(1) The effects of acupuncture: acupuncture group, 30 people with severe swelling and other needling
sensation tingling indications based, VAS score 4.62± 3.05. The control group of 21 people without feeling, 7 slight tingling. (2) Functional
brain imaging Results:In comparison to the baseline without feeling, SJ5 needling sensation activate brain regions have returned
(BA6) on bilateral frontal, inferior frontal gyrus (BA47), back (BA40) on the edge of the left middle frontal gyrus (BA47), medial frontal
gyrus (BA10), middle temporal gyrus (BA21), on the right middle frontal gyrus (BA10), inferior parietal lobule (BA40), medial frontal
gyrus (BA6), on the back temporal (BA10), middle temporal gyrus (BA39), inferior temporal gyrus (BA20).Conclusion:SJ5 needling
sensation activate brain regions with close ties SJ5 therapeutic effect, the effect of acupuncture mechanisms related to brain center. |
