摘要
In order to understand the relationship between patients’adrenal function and simple obesity andeffect of acupuncture on it,the obesity indices,lipid indices,fasting blood-glucose,noradrenalin,dopamine,adrenalin and cortisol were observed.The results indicated that patients with simpleobesity had hypofunction of the sympathetic-adrenal system and the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal system.Acupuncture treatment not only affected weight loss but also enhanced func-tioning of the two systems,suggesting that the effect of acupuncture on weight loss may be pro-duced by enhancing the functions of both the sympathetic-adrenal system and thehypothalamus-pitnitary-adrenal system.
