艾灸가 家兎의 筋損傷에 미치는 影響 = Effects of Moxibustion on Muscle Injury in Rabbits

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

To know that how be effected muscle injury by moxibustion treatment, we have measured the changes in concentration of electrolytes(K^+, Na^+, Cl^-), activity of LDH and CPK from blood serum after complete compression with rubber tourniquet around the femoral area of rabbit.
And we also examined effects of moxibustion applied to a meridian point Jog Sam Ri(S 36), Kan Soo(B18) on changes of concentration of electrolytes (K^+, Na^+, Cl^-), activity of LDH and CPK from blood serum at 30, 60, 90 minutes and 18 hours after release of tourniquet.
The results obtained from this study were as follows;
1. Among the concentration of electrolytes, that of K^+ in B 18 group at all times for blood serum has shown a significant increase than in control group, that of Cl^- in S 36 and B 18 group at 18 hours for blood serum has shown a significant decrease than in control group.
2. The activity of LDH in B 18 group for blood serum has shown a significant decrease compared with control group, but in s 36 group has not shown a significant decrease compared with control group.
3. The activity of CPK in B 18 group for blood serum has shown a significant decrease compared with control group, but in S 36 group has shown a increase compared with control group.
According to the above results, we have identified that moxibustion can recover muscle injury, and have considered that better effect upon in B18 than in S 36.
