摘要

High-frequency brain oscillations (600Hz) and conventional early somatosensory evoked potentials were investigated for the first time in 14 healthy volunteers (7 f, 7 m; mean age 22.7 + 3.3 years; range 19 - 32 years) during acupuncture at Large Intestine (LI-4, Hegu). Inserting the needles and manual stimulation produced significant (p < 0.05; Kruskal-Wallis ANOVA) decreases of amplitudes of 600Hz signals from generators located in the vicinity to the thalamus. Modulation of subcortical structures may be an important mechanism by which acupuncture exerts its complex effects. Introduction Human median nerve somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) contain an oscillatory burst of low-amplitude high-frequency (600Hz) wavelets superimposed on the N20 component.1 Acupuncture has been used to treat diseases for thousands of years in China. While some studies have shown that acupuncture could modify conventional SEPs 2,3 no study has been published on 600Hz brain oscillations and acupuncture. In the present study we report for the first time the effects of manual acupuncture and needle stimulation of acupoint LI-4 (Hegu) on high-frequency (600Hz) components in human SEPs using a new EEG recording technique. Methods Healthy VolunteersSEPs including 600Hz oscillations were investigated in 14 healthy volunteers. Seven persons were females and seven males. The mean age ± standard deviation was 22.7 ± 3.3 years (range 19 – 32 years). None had a history of psychiatric or neurological disorders or head trauma with loss of consciousness, or intake of tranquilizing drugs in the last 7 days. All healthy volunteer adults had some knowledge of acupuncture but had never received treatment. No subjects were in pain or distress at the time of the study. The study was approved by the ethics committee of the University of Graz and all subjects were paid and gave written informed consent. Stimulation, Recording and Evaluation ParametersThe elucidation of the SEPs was performed using peripheral electrical stimulation of the median nerve at the wrist of the right hand. The impulse duration was 0.2 ms, stimulus rate was 4.7 Hz, stimulus intensity was 3.0 – 9.2 mA and sampling frequency 10 kHz. Special adhesive electrodes (Nicolet, 019-768700) were used for stimulation. The distance between the anode and the cathode was 4.3 cm.SEPs and 600Hz oscillations were recorded using new active electroencephalographic electrodes 4,5.
