应用十四经公式计算经络穴位数的可行性

The feasibility to account of the number of channel points by applying the“Fourteen-channel formula”

目的 阐述用“十四经公式”计算经络穴位数的由来及正确可行性。方法 “十四经公式”S=aM±N ,该式由下述三个式子组成 ,即 :手六经公式S =9M±N ,足六经公式S =12M±N和任督二脉公式S =4M。作者分析了数据规律及有关医学文献 ,试图找到计算方法及揭开经穴之谜。结果 这三个式子的计算结果与现行的实际穴位数相吻合 (t<t0 .0 5,相差不显著 )。结论 结果提示经络与穴位之间的数学规律是客观存在的 ,而且经络与穴位变化之间有着极复杂的关系。

Objective To expound the origin and feasibility to account the number of channel points by the “Fourteen-channel formula”.Methods The “Fourteen-channel formula”(S=aM)consists of three other formulae,9M±N,12M±N and 4M,of which the first is a formula about the six channels in one’s hand,the second about the six channels in one’s foot and the last about the Ren and Du channels.The authors analysed variant medical literature and statictics for above purpose.Results The numbers of channel points calculated out by employing the three formulae concide with the current standard mumbers(t<t 0.05 ),the difference is very slight.Conclusion The results suggest that the mathematical regularity on channel points exists objectively,and the relationship between channel and points change is most complex.
