针刺治疗原发性失眠的机制研究

Mechanism of acupuncture treatment of primary insomnia

失眠症是临床最常见的健康问题之一,可以导致多种并发疾病,严重影响人类的身心健康。针刺治疗失眠已有几千年历史,目前被作为替代疗法广泛用于世界各地的失眠人群。然而,针刺治疗失眠的内在机制尚不明确,机制研究较为离散,尚缺乏对于针刺治疗失眠症机制方面最新的、全面的认识。如何科学解释针刺治疗失眠症的科学机制面临极大挑战。本文总结分析后发现,针刺可能通过调整中枢神经递质、失眠相关激素、昼夜节律、睡眠结构以及大脑功能等多方面功能而改善睡眠。本研究旨在能为今后关于针刺治疗失眠症机制的全面研究提供参考。

Insomnia is one of the most common clinical health problems,which can lead to a variety of complications and seriously affect human physical and mental health.Acupuncture has been used for treating insomnia for thousands of years,and is currently widely used as an alternative therapy for insomnia all over the world.However,the mechanism of acupuncture for insomnia is still unclear,the mechanism research is relatively discrete,and there is still a lack of up-to-date and comprehensive understanding of the mechanism of acupuncture for insomnia.How to scientifically explain the scientific mechanism of acupuncture in treating insomnia is a great challenge.After summary and analysis,this study found that acupuncture may improve sleeping by adjusting central neurotransmitter,insomnia-related hormone,circadian rhythm,sleep structure,and brain function.This study aims to provide a reference for future research on the mechanism of acupuncture for insomnia.
