The effect of acupuncture on the tonic vibration reflex (TVR) has been examined in healthy men. Vibrations (100 Hz) were applied over the muscle bellies of either finger flexion muscles or extension muscles, while finger flexions and extensions were measured by a strain attached to the middle finger. A stainless steel acupuncture needle was inserted for 10 min into an acupuncture point named "Chu-Chih (LI-II)". After the application of acupuncture, TVRs in both flexion and extension muscles were significantly less than those observed before the application of acupuncture. The inhibitory effect of acupuncture almost disappeared 10 min after removing the needle. Acupuncture transiently inhibits TVR in extension and flexion muscles in man.
在健康男性中研究了针刺对强直性振动反射(TVR)的影响。将振动(100赫兹)施加于手指屈肌或伸肌的肌腹上,同时通过附着于中指的应变片测量手指的屈伸情况。将一根不锈钢针灸针插入名为“曲池(LI-11)”的穴位10分钟。针刺后,屈肌和伸肌的TVR均显著低于针刺前。拔针10分钟后,针刺的抑制作用几乎消失。针刺可短暂抑制人体伸肌和屈肌的TVR。
