The action of homeopathic medicines, in ultra-high dilution, is not directly observable. An attempt was made to explore autonomic response of selective homeopathic medicines, in healthy persons, using Medical Analyzer System (Electronics Division, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai, India).
The objective of the study was to observe the action of homeopathic medicines on physiologic variability of heart rate and blood flow.
Pre- and postinterventional variability spectra of heart rate and blood flow of 77 subjects were recorded with the Medical Analyzer System, administering homeopathic preparations of Aconitum napellus (6c, 10M), Arsenicum album (200c, 1M), Gelsemium sempervirens (200c, 1M), Phosphorus (200c, 1M), Pulsatilla nigricans (200c) and Sulphur (200c, 1M) versus placebo control. The amplitude of the peaks viz. low-frequency, medium-frequency, and high-frequency was measured for postintervention analysis. An increase in the amplitude of any valid peak by 100% or a decrease by 50% was considered as significant change.
Aconitum napellus produced a response in heart rate variability (HRV) with 30c potency and in blood flow variability with 1M potency. Sulphur 200c and 1M, Gelsemium 200c and Pulsatilla 200c, produced a 62.5% response in HRV against the placebo response of 16.6%. Gelsemium, Phosphorus, and Sulphur produced a response in blood flow variability with a 1M potency, similar to the response of Aconitum napellus 1M.
These data suggest that it is possible to record the response of homeopathic medicines on physiologic parameters of the autonomic nervous system.
顺势疗法药物在超高稀释度下的作用无法直接观察到。本研究尝试使用医疗分析仪系统（印度孟买巴巴原子研究中心电子分部）探索健康人群中特定顺势疗法药物的自主反应。
本研究旨在观察顺势疗法药物对心率和血流生理可变性的作用。
使用医疗分析仪系统记录 77 名受试者的心率和血流预干预和后干预变异性谱，给予顺势疗法制剂乌头（6c，10M）、砷（200c，1M）、钩吻（200c，1M）、磷（200c，1M）、黑升麻（200c）和硫磺（200c，1M），与安慰剂对照。测量后干预分析中峰的幅度，即低频、中频和高频。幅度增加 100%或减少 50%被认为是显著变化。
乌头在心率变异性（HRV）中产生了反应，用 30c 效价，在血流变异性中产生了反应，用 1M 效价。硫磺 200c 和 1M、钩吻 200c 和黑升麻 200c 对安慰剂的反应产生了 62.5%的 HRV 反应，而安慰剂的反应为 16.6%。钩吻、磷和硫磺用 1M 效价产生了血流变异性的反应，与乌头 1M 的反应相似。
这些数据表明，有可能记录顺势疗法药物对自主神经系统生理参数的反应。
