World Science and Technology-Modernization of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2014;(7):1597-1601
This article was aimed to observe the intracardiac pressure under different states by electric acupuncture (EA) on yuan-source point of PC7-Daling and to explore the acupuncture effect features. Catheterization was applied through the right common carotid artery to the left ventricle in order to record the left intraventricular pressure. The intracardiac pressure was used as an indicator. The effects of EA on PC7-Daling to the left intraventricular pressure of rats were observed under the states of normal physiology, isoproterenol and propranolol, respectively. The results showed that for the immediate effects of acupuncture, EA on PC7-Daling can obviously excited the intracardiac pressure of normal rats. Under the state of intravenous application of propranolol and isoproterenol, no obvious reac-tions during EA on PC7-Daling. From the effects of acupuncture, under normal conditions, EA on PC7-Daling had excitatory effect; under propranolol state, it had inhibitory effects; and the effect of isoproterenol state was variable. It was concluded that according to the specificity of acupoint effect, PC7-Daling can excite intracardiac pressure.

Objective:To introduce the application of 3D printing technology in standardized residency training of percutaneous precise biopsy.Methods:Twenty-two residents were randomly divided into innovative teaching group and traditional teaching group, with 11 ones in each group. Residents in both groups received standardized training of percutaneous biopsy procedure. Innovative teaching group was given 3D printing template combined with guided operation, while traditional teaching group used bare hand operation. The time spent in biopsy, the times of needle adjustment, the frequency of CT scanning during operation, the positive rate of material sampling and the incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.Results:During the percutaneous lung biopsy, two groups of physicians performed the procedure. There was no significant difference between the two groups in operation time [(22.34±3.12) vs. (23.56±4.21)] and the positive rate of sampling (72.73% vs. 90.91%) ( P> 0.05), but there were significant differences in the times of adjusting biopsy needle during operation [(2.11±0.67) vs. (1.02±0.93)], the frequency of intraoperative CT scanning [(4.35±0.76) vs. (3.12±0.84)] and the incidence of complications (54.55% vs. 27.27%) ( P< 0.05). In percutaneous peritoneal organ biopsy, there was no significant difference among the two groups in the operation time [(16.25±2.89) vs. (15.12±2.59)], the number of CT scans [(3.45±0.79) vs. (2.98±0.23)] and the positive rate (78.57% vs. 88.24%) ( P> 0.05), but there were significant differences in times of intraoperative biopsy needle adjustments [(2.43±0.43) vs. (1.84±0.89)] and the incidence of complications (35.71% vs. 5.88%) ( P< 0.05). Conclusion:The application of 3D printing technology combined with the teaching of three-dimensional guided stent can make percutaneous biopsy technique stylized and standardized. It is of great significance to standardize the operation for improving the quality of medical treatment, and it is worth popularizing in clinical teaching.
