| Abstract
|
| [Objective] To explore whether the pulse variation (pulse interval variation) of Yuan points will reflect the function of viscera and its meridian specificity. [Methods] The study included three groups: normal group, superficial gastritis group and atropic gastritis group. Pressure transducer was used to obtain the pulse interval data of Yuan points, spetrum indicies was calculated by spectrum analysis of 512 pulse intervals, the relation between every Yuan points was evaluated in each groups. [Results] TF, LF and HF of Chongyang (ST42) and Taichong (LR3) was significantly higher than Taiyuan (LU9) (P<0.01), but LF/HF was significantly lower than LU9 (P<0.01). No significant difference was shown between ST42 and LR3 (P>0.05) in normal group. The relation between every Yuan points in superficial gastritis group was the same as that of normal group. But unlike to normal and superficial gastritis group, the indicates of ST42 in atropic gastritis group was significantly lower than LR3 (P<0.01). [Conclusion] The pulse variation of ST42 may reflect gastric phatological state. |
