Abstract
Objective:To observe the quality of temperature changes before and after different quantities of warming moxibustion,and explore the quantity-effect signficance from the aspect of temperature.Methods:Acupoint temperatures of three common different quantities of ginger-separated moxibustion(3min,6min,9min) were measured respectively in HLP rats,and then a comparison of surface temperature changes in two acupoints(Shenque,Zusanli) was made among pre-moxibustion,moxibustion-processing and post-moxibustion.Results:See from the acupoint:temperature foundational walue of Shenque Zusanli,but fluctuate range Shenquezusanli.The maximal surface temperatures of Shenque and Zusanli among three different quantities of warming moxibustion were different.The discrepancy showed statistical significance;When warming moxibustion completed,the discrepancy of temperature of Shenque with different moxibustion quantities showed statistical significance,but Zusanli did not.Conclusion:Stimulation of different quantities of moxibustion is an important factor affecting acupoint local temperature,while the thermal effect of warming moxibustion in different acupionts shows a discrepancy.
