Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo study the specific regularity of acupoints to treat genital system diseases.
METHODSA model of inflammatory ovary was developed by injection of 0.08 mL, 10% mustard oil into the ovary of the rat. And the reactive points of plasma extravasarion points on the skin were detected after injection of 0.25 mL evens blue into the tail vein. The relation among the regions of plasma extravasation points, dorsal ganglion of governing ovaries and the acupoints to treat the ovarian diseases was analyzed.
RESULTSThe exudative points mainly distributed at Guanyuan (CV 4)-"Zigong" (EX-CA 1) point-area, "Shenshu" (BL 23)-"Mingmen" (GV 4) point-area, "Changqiang" (GV 1)-"Huiyin" (CV 1) point-area, "Sanyinjiao" (SF 6)-"Zusanli" (ST 36) point-area, "Zhongwan" (CV 12) point-area, "Gansho" (BL 18) area, with the most in the "Guanyuan" (CV 4)-"Zigong" (EX-CA 1) point-area and next at "Shenshu" (BL 23)-"Mingmen" (GV 4) point-area.
CONCLUSIONThe reactive point-area of plasma extravasation resulted from inflammation of ovary are identical to the ovary a corr.sponding dorsal ganglion. Acupuncture at the corresponding acupoints of the reactive point-areas has specific regulative action on ovarian functions.
