To observe the changes of electrical property of the 12 Source-points in encephaloma patients undergoing surgery.
A total of 116 encephaloma patients and 60 healthy people who signed the informed consent were enlisted in the present study. The regional cutaneous electric resistance (CER) of the bilateral 12 Yuan (Source)-points was measured in the afternoon (14:00-16:00) before and one week after surgery under room temperature [(22 +/- 3) degrees C, (55 +/- 10)% in humidity] by using "Meridian Energy Analysis Device".
In comparison with normal subjects, CER values of the 12 Source-points on both sides of the body in encephaloma patients were significantly lower (P < 0.01). Before surgery, CER values of Wangu (SI 4), Taibai (SP 3), Taichong (LR 3) and Chongyang (ST 42) on the left side were significantly higher than those of the isonym points on the right side (P < 0.01, P < 0.05), suggesting an imbalance of the bilateral Small Intestine, Spleen, Liver and Stomach Meridians. After surgery, CER values of Shenmen (HT 7), Wangu (SI 4), Yangchi (SJ 4) and Taibai (SP 3) on the left side were markedly higher than those of the isonym points on the right side (P < 0.05, P < 0.01), suggesting an imbalance of the bilateral Heart, Small Intestine, Trienergizer and Spleen Meridians. Comparison between pre- and post-surgery showed that CER values of Taiyuan (LU 9), Daling (PC 7), Taibai (SP 3), Taichong (LR 3), Taixi (KI 3), Jinggu (BL 64), Qiuxu (GB 40) and Chongyang (ST 42) on both sides, and Wangu (SI 4) on the right side lessened obviously post-surgery (P < 0.01, P < 0.05), suggesting an imbalance of the bilateral meridians found in more meridians, including yang meridians entering the brain as the Bladder, Gallbladder, Stomach Meridians.
In encephaloma patients, the CER values of some Source-points on the left side are significantly higher than those on the right side, suggesting an imbalance of the bilateral meridians in functional activities.
观察脑瘤患者手术前后十二原穴电学性质的变化。
本研究共纳入116例脑瘤患者和60例签署知情同意书的健康人。于室温[（22±3）℃，湿度（55±10）%]下，在下午（14：00 - 16：00）手术前及术后1周，使用“经络能量分析仪”测量双侧十二原穴的区域皮肤电阻（CER）。
与正常受试者相比，脑瘤患者双侧身体十二原穴的CER值显著降低（P<0.01）。术前，左侧腕骨（SI 4）、太白（SP 3）、太冲（LR 3）和冲阳（ST 42）的CER值显著高于右侧同名穴位（P<0.01，P<0.05），提示双侧小肠经、脾经、肝经和胃经失衡。术后，左侧神门（HT 7）、腕骨（SI 4）、阳池（SJ 4）和太白（SP 3）的CER值显著高于右侧同名穴位（P<0.05，P<0.01），提示双侧心经、小肠经、三焦经和脾经失衡。术前与术后比较显示，双侧的太渊（LU 9）、大陵（PC ７）、太白（SP 3）、太冲（LR 3）、太溪（KI 3）、京骨（BL 64）、丘墟（GB 40）和冲阳（ST 42）以及右侧的腕骨（SI 4）术后CER值明显降低（P<0.01，P<0.05），提示双侧经络失衡出现在更多经络中，包括作为足太阳膀胱经、足少阳胆经、足阳明胃经等进入脑内的阳经。
在脑瘤患者中，左侧一些原穴的CER值显著高于右侧，提示双侧经络功能活动失衡。
