Abstract

This study was performed to clarify the effect of oculo-acupuncture (OA) on change of serum gastrin concentration. Twenty-three clinically healthy mongrel dogs were used in this study. This study was comprised of two experiments. In experiment 1, the effect of OA (stomach/spleen region) with comparison of non-a cup oint was examined. On the other hand, the effect of OA (stomach/spleen region) with comparison by body acupuncture (BL-21) was also examined in experiment 2. Serum gastrin levels were measured on before, 0, 30, 60 and 120 minutes after treatment in both non-acupoint and stomach/spleen region groups, and BL-21 The results showed that significant decreases in serum gastrin level was detected on 30 mins(p<0.05) after OA when compared with that of non-acupoint group. Serum gastrin concentrations with OA at stomach/spleen region group were significantly decreased on 60 mins (p<0.05) and 120 mins (p<0.01) compared with those of the AP at BL21 group. In conclusion, it was demonstrated that OA at stomach/spleen region had significantly decreased serum gastrin levels in dogs and OA at stomach/spleen region decreased serum gastrin concentration more than that body acupuncture at BL-21.

본 연구는 혈청 가스트린 농도 변화에 대한 안침의 효과를 규명하기 위하여 수행되었다. 임상적으로 건강한 23두의 잡종 견을 본 실험에 사용하였다. 본 연구는 두 가지 실험으로 구성되었다. 실험 1에 있어서는 안침의 효과(위 및 비장 영역)를 눈의 비 혈위 영역을 대조로 조사하였다. 한편 실험 2에 있어서는 안침의 효과(위/비장 영역)와 위유(胃兪)(BL-21) 에 대한 체침(體針)의 효과를 비교하였다. 혈청 가스트린 농도의 변화는 0, 30, 60 및 120 분에 대조 군 및 안침 군에서 각각 조사하였다. 그 결과, 안침 군에 있어서 안침 (위/비장 영역) 적용 후 30 분에 대조 군에 비하여 혈청 가스트린 농도의 유의한 감소 소견이 인정되었다(p<0.05). 또한, 안침 군의 혈청 가스트린 농도는 BL-21 체침 군에 비하여 60분 및 120분에 각각 유의한 감소 소견을 나타내었다(p<0.01). 이상의 결과를 종합해 볼 때, 개에 있어서 안침(위/비장 영역)은 혈청 가스트린 농도를 감소시키며, 또한 BL-21 체침(體針) 보다 혈청 가스트린 농도를 더욱 감소시키는 것으로 판단되었다.
