Objective To observe the distribution of the activated cerebral regions after acupuncture stimulation of Zhongzhu(SJ3) and Waiguan(SJ5) by functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI) technique.Methods A total of 8 cases of volunteer healthy subjects were recruited for this study.Before and during manipulation of the needle,cerebral images were sampled separately by fMRI scanner and analyzed by AFNI software.Results During manipulation of the needle inserted in the unilateral Zhongzhu(SJ3) and Wauguan(SJ5),the highly-activated cerebral structures were cingulated gyrus,temporal gyrus,cerebellum,occipital gyrus,etc.Conclusion The effect of acupuncture analgesia was probably produces by the interaction of multiple brain structures of functional connectivity rather than through the activation of a single brain region.

【Objective】 To observe the effect of acupuncture on immune organs(thymus and spleen) and T lymphocyte subtypes of CD3,CD4 and CD8 in rats with dysmenorrhea.【Methods】Thirty SD rats were randomized into normal control group,model group and electroacupunture(EA) group.Except the normal control group,rats in other groups received intraperitoneal injection of diethylstilbestrol and oxytocin to induce dysmenorrhea.EA group received EA on bilateral acupoints of Sanyinjiao and Guanyuan additionally.After 10-day treatment,body-stretching rate,the pathological changes of thymus and spleen,and blood CD3,CD4 and CD8 levels in the three groups were observed.【Results】In the model group,body-stretching rate was 100%,the pathological changes of thymus and spleen were obvious,and blood CD3 and CD4 levels were decreased as compared with the normal control group(P
