发布时间:2022-02-11   浏览次数:697

经过两年的准备、编写和审稿,由我实验室执行主任夏萤教授主编,丁光宏、沈雪勇、吴根诚等教授编写的《Current Acupuncture》即将再版,在原版的基础上扩充更新了内容。由于原书在世界范围内广受欢迎,因此出版社springer要求再版。

  

本书由世界各地包括中国、美国、德国、加拿大及日本等国家70多名科学家及临床医师编写,专著包含近450多个图表,涵盖范围较广的针灸研究方面的最新进展,从实验研究到临床应用。除了探索针灸的组织病理学基础和穴位对针刺反应的数学模型外,还广泛讨论了针灸效应期间针灸信号的启动和转导、细胞机制以及针灸穴位的化学和物理特性。主题还包括利用先进的成像技术对针灸效应的新数据、对经络-脏器相关性的独特理解、在自我平衡系统内经络和神经感觉器官之间的特定相互作用,以及针灸对自主神经功能的影响。不少章节介绍了干针、银针和不锈钢针治疗某些疾病的具体方法,如肌筋膜炎、乳腺癌和化疗诱导的周围神经病变的支持性护理,以及外科患者的围手术期护理。此外,本书还讨论了针灸疗法的最新研究以及一些严重和难治性神经系统疾病的潜在机制,包括下丘脑-垂体-肾上腺轴亢进、口面部疼痛、慢性疼痛、瘙痒、多发性硬化症、自闭症谱系障碍、脑瘫、抑郁症、,阿尔茨海默病和缺血性脑损伤。本书中提供的大量信息不仅为针灸师,也为神经科学家、神经学家和其他临床医生提供了先进针灸研究的全面视角。对于医学生以及主修生物学、生理学和神经科学的研究生和本科生来说,本书提供了一门高级课程,学习替代医学和补充医学中由机制驱动的进步。

  

  

     Written by over seventy scientists and clinicians worldwide from China, USA, Germany, Canada, Japan and other countries, this monograph, with nearly 450 figures and tables, covers a wide range of advanced progress in acupuncture research, from experimental research to clinical applications. In addition to exploring the histopathological basis for acupuncture and mathematical simulation of acupoint response to stimulation, initiation and transduction of acupuncture signals and cellular mechanisms during acupuncture effects as well as chemical and physical characteristics of moxibustion on acupoints are broadly discussed. The topics also include novel data on acupuncture effect with advanced imaging techniques, a unique understanding of meridian-viscera correlation, specific interactions between meridians and neurosensory organs within the system of homeostatic regulation and the acupuncture-induced influences on autonomic function. Several chapters introduce specific approaches with dry needling, silver needling and stainless needling for certain diseases, such as myofascitis, supportive care for breast cancer and chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy as well as perioperative care of surgical patients. Moreover, this book discusses recent research on acupuncture therapy and potential mechanisms for a number of severe and refractory neurological disorders, including hyperactivity of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, orofacial pain, chronic pain, itch, multiple sclerosis, autism spectrum disorders, cerebral palsy, depressive disorders, Alzheimer’s disease and ischemic brain injury. The vast amount of information offered in this book provides a comprehensive perspective on advanced acupuncture research to not only acupuncturists, but also to neuroscientists, neurologists, and other clinicians. For medical students and graduate and undergraduate students majoring in biology, physiology and neuroscience, this book offers an advanced course in learning about the mechanism-driven advances in alternative and complementary medicine.
