Purpose: In this study, the effects of meridian massage and hand massage on the affected upper extremity of patients with a stroke were identified. Method: A nonequivalent control group non-synchronized design was used. Participants were 84 (Experimental. 1: 28, Experimental. 2: 28, Control.: 28) patients with a stroke who were hospitalized in K oriental medical center. Experimental treatment for patients in experimental group 1 was the meridian massage for 10 minutes daily for 2 weeks, and for those in experimental group 2, hand massage for 2 minutes, 30 seconds each, daily for 2 weeks. Outcome variables were upper extremity function (grip power, shoulder pain, edema, ROM), ADL, and depression. Data were analyzed using SPSS PC+ version. Results: The score for upper extremity functions and ADL were significantly higher in experimental group 1 who had meridian massage than for experimental group 2 or the control group. Experimental group 1 showed less depression than experimental 2 or the control group. Conclusion: Meridian massage can be an effective nursing intervention to improve upper extremity function and ADL, and to decrease depression in patients stroke who have had a stroke.

Objectives : This study was to investigate statistical validities and trends of previously reported papers that used various statistical techniques such as t-test and analysis of variance. Methods : To analyze the statistical procedures, 54 original articles using those statistical methods were selected from The Korean Journal of Acupuncture published from 2007 to 2011. Results : T-test and analysis of variance were used in 23(25.27%), and 18 papers(19.78%) out of 54 papers, respectively. Seven articles(12.96%) did not report alpha values and 26(48.15%) out of 54 studies were not tested for normal distribution. One paper(1.85%) misused t-test and 7 papers(38.89%) did not carry out the multiple comparison. Conclusions : To improve the quality of KJA, statistician involvement in research design would be necessary to reduce errors in statistical methods and interpretation of the results.

본 논문은 인지능력이 저하된 노인들에게 침과 뜸 요법을 시행하고 HRV 측정값을 통하여 그 효과를 분석한다. 인지능력이 저하되거나 상실된 사람들에게 자주 사용되었던 주요한 경혈을 고문헌에서 조사하였다. 인지능력이 저하된 노인들에게 침과 뜸을 시술한 후 HRV 측정기를 이용하여 여러 가지 변화를 측정하였다. 측정된 값들을 상호 비교하여 자율신경계와 심박동수의 변화에 침과 뜸이 어떤 영향을 주는지 효능을 측정하였다. 연구 결과 침과 뜸이 인지능력의 개선에 긍정적이 효과가 있다는 것을 HRV 분석을 통해 확인할 수 있었다.

Objectives : Accurate location of acupoints is a prerequisite for both practice and research into acupoint specificity. Given that accurate location of acupoints is one of the most important issues in meridianology education, this study aimed at evaluating if the elastic ruler method for locating acupoints is suitable for meridianology practice class. Methods : Fifty-six students who took meridianology practice class participated in the experiment. Firstly, they were asked to locate PC6, CV12 and ST36 without any assisting tools and the distance between standard acupoint and their acupoint location was measured. Secondly, they were again asked to locate the same points this time with an elastic ruler. Then the first and second measurements were compared using a paired t-test. Results : Analysis of the results found using an elastic ruler significantly improved the difference between the student's acupoint location and the standard acupoint: there was a significant difference between 1st and 2nd measurements for PC6 (1.87${\pm}$0.29mm vs. 1.28${\pm}$0.19mm, P=0.037) and for ST36 (2.70${\pm}$0.22mm vs. 1.38${\pm}$0.15mm, P<0.0001). Conclusions : Using an elastic ruler as an assisting tool for locating acupoints in meridianology practice class should be considered for improving accuracy in acupoint location.

목 적 : 전침 자극은 최근에 임상연구와 더불어 기초연구에서 자주 사용하는 방법으로 경락이론에 의거하여 신체에 분포되어 있는 경락상의 각종경혈부위에 인위적인 전기 자극을 통하여 질병을 치료, 예방 혹은 완화하는 방법이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 정상적인 쥐의 상태에서 일정한 전침 자극을 주었을 때, 심박변이도의 변화를 측정 하였다. 방 법 : 쥐의 정상적인 마취상태에서 태충혈에 4 Hz와 80 Hz의 5 V 크기로 10 mA 강도의 사각파 파형으로 자극을 주었으며 대조조로 비경혈 부위에 4 Hz의 동일한 파형으로 자극을 주어 심박 변이도의 변화정도를 측정하였다. 결 과 : 본 실험에서 RR Interval의 경우 태충혈 4 Hz 보다 80 Hz일때 RR Interval의 파형이 더 크게 나타났으며, PSD의 분석에서도 자극 전후를 비교하였을 때 $1{\sim}3$ Hz 사이에 높은 피크가 보였으며 4 Hz의 비경혈 부위에서는 큰 변화를 보이지 않았다. 결 론 : 이번 실험연구를 통하여 정상적인 쥐의 상태에서 일정한 전침 자극을 주었을 때, 심박 변이도 변화를 도출할 수 있었으며, 이번 실험을 통해 비수술적인 방법으로 치료효과와 심박 변이도를 측정할 수 있었고, 이를 통해 전침자극의 기전 연구에 있어 과학적 근거를 제시할 수 있다고 사료된다.

Objectives : We have examined and analyzed patents regarding acupuncture point stimulating methods in order to understand the stimulation technology and research trends of acupuncture points. Methods : We searched and analyzed the total of 135 on-line DB based patents under time limit of Dec, 2010. Results : According to the analyzed results, non-invasive method is used more than invasive method. Electric stimulation is used more than any other method, such as magnetic, ionic, laser, light, ultrasonic, water, Far IR and thermal stimulation. There are numbers of cases such as rejected during screening procedure, waived before the screening, of failed to renew its registrational status which outnumber those patents registered and maintained. Conclusions : These data suggest that we need to move away from using one side method such as non-invasive and electrical method. Thus follow-up service is recommended.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of meridian acupressure on constipation in bed-ridden aged inpatients. Methods: The research design was a non-synchronized non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design. The subjects consisted of 28 bed-ridden aged inpatients. Meridian acupressure was administered to the experimental group at 30 minutes before breakfast every morning for two weeks. Each meridian was pressured for 10 seconds, 10 times. The frequency of defecation and stool form were examined every day. The data was analyzed by the $x^2$-test, Fisher's exact test, t-test and repeated measures ANOVA. Results: The experimental group given Meridian Acupressure had a higher frequency of defecation(F = 59.372, p = .000) and normal stool(F = 46.046, p = .000) than the control group. Conclusion: The results suggest that Meridian Acupressure was an effective method for the relief of constipation for bed-ridden aged inpatients. A follow -up research is needed to validate that other patients with constipation can use the Meridian Acupressure as a non-invasive nursing intervention instead of a laxative or enema.
