Reliability of Mandel's Energy Emission Analysis (EEA) in Sick PersonsOBJECTIVE: Is the Energy Emission Analysis (EEA) according to Mandel a reliable diagnostic instrument in severely diseased patients? PATIENTS: 30 patients of the Stauferklinik Schwäbisch Gmünd, Germany, suffering from a great variety of diseases. STUDY DESIGN: At regular intervals of 10-15 min 4 Kirlian photos of fingers and toes were taken from each patient. An experienced rater blindly assessed all photos according to the EEA sectors with respect to remarkable phenomena. Additionally he defined the most affected circles of functions of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). RESULTS: The circles of functions of kidney/bladder and spleen/pancreas/stomach appeared to be the most affected in nearly all photos, the reliability is estimated by a rather low intraclass-kappa of 0.14 (95% CI: 0.00-0.29, p = 0.0279. Reliabilities of single EEA sectors also are low and similar to those of healthy persons. CONCLUSIONS: The reasons for the moderate reliability may be attributed to fluctuations of Chi, increasing regulation rigidity of diseased persons or simply to technical limitations of the method.Possibly new realtime Kirlian devices can provide additional information.
曼德尔能量发射分析（EEA）在病人中的可靠性
曼德尔的能量发射分析（EEA）在重症患者中是否是一种可靠的诊断工具？
德国施瓦本格明德施陶费尔诊所的30名患有多种疾病的患者。
每隔10 - 15分钟从每位患者的手指和脚趾拍摄4张基里安照片。一位经验丰富的评估者根据EEA区域对所有照片进行盲评，以观察显著现象。此外，他还确定了受影响最大的中医功能圈。
几乎在所有照片中，肾/膀胱和脾/胰腺/胃的功能圈似乎受影响最大，可靠性通过较低的组内kappa值0.14估计（95%置信区间：0.00 - 0.29，p = 0.0279）。单个EEA区域的可靠性也较低，与健康人相似。
可靠性一般的原因可能归因于气的波动、患病者调节刚性的增加或仅仅是该方法的技术局限性。新型实时基里安设备可能会提供更多信息。
