摘要
近年来.疼痛原理的研究有了迅速的发展,最近提出了针刺对痛的不同成分的影响问题。关于痛的问题,至今尚没有它的科学定义。十九世纪以前,有人把痛看作是紧密地和不愉快的情绪相联系的;自本世纪以来,痛是感觉的观点占了优势。人们都承认痛不同于视、听等感觉,因为它还带有明显的情绪色彩。心理学和生理学教科书中。
The present investigation employed psychophysical and electrophysiological me-thods to study the compound action potential induced by square pulse stimulation onthe saphenous nerve. The first experiment was to establish an emotional scale of pain by observing the emotional states of nine subjects under various pain stimulation con-ditions. The second experiment applied electro-acupuncture on the same nerve andrecorded the changes of the sensory as well as the emotional components of pain dur-ing and after electro-acupuncture processes. The result indicated that electro-acupunc-ture had differential inhibitory effect on the sensory component and the emotionalcomponent of pain. This suggests: 1. Pain involves two related but different com-ponents (the sensory component and emotional component of pain); 2. Electro-acupuncture has stronger inhibitory effect on the emotional component of pain. Thisresult provides a new outlook for the improvement of clinical effect of acupunctureand for further study of pain mechanism.
