ABSTRACT
Introduction@#Traditional Mongolian medicine pulse diagnosis is one of the three major assessments in consultation. Possessing thorough pulse feeling skill, the main diagnostic method of traditional medicine, makes a direct impact to treatment results. Unfortunately, there has not been much research done on determining the scientific nature of the pulse feeling diagnostic method in Mongolia. Therefore, the topic was selected in order to clarify some issues of history and theory of the pulse feeling method and to prove the method with practical application.</br> Highlight some of the theoretical concepts of the traditional medicine approach to pulse reading. When feeling the pulse, the index finger is pressed lightly to feel the skin, the middle finger is pressed with medium pressure to feel the muscle tissue and the ring finger is pressed hard to feel the bone of the doctor is pressed lightly in order to distinguish the twisted blood flow changes overcoming the resistance of sequential pressure. We also identified that the pulse feeling is based on the nature and connection of the wind and blood and their actions in regard to traditional medicine, whereas by modern medical theory; it is based on functioning factors of vascular muscle layers, pulse rate, pressure to vascular wall and condition of vascular wall as well as thickness and thinness of blood flow. In addition to the method being effective when detecting pregnancy and gender of fetus of patients at the maternity hospital, it is definite that it can be basis of identifying the characteristic of pulse of warm and cold diseases.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the curative effect of YU Yun pulse-feeling-based acupuncture therapy for the treatment of middle-late liver cancer. Methods A total of 60 middle-late liver cancer patients were divided into control group and treatment group by stratified randomization method,30 cases in each group. The control group was given integrated Chinese and western medicine therapy according to the clinical pathway, including anti-cancer treatment such as vascular interrention,molecular targeted therapy,chemotherapy,radio therapy, and focal ablation therapy,as well as chinese medicine treatment based on disease differentiation and syndrome differentiation. And the treatment group was given YU Yun pulse-feeling-based acupuncture therapy on the basis of treatment for the control group. The two groups received 12-week treatment, and then their curative effects were compared. Results The treatment group had better effect on increasing the survival rate, prolonging survival time, improving the scores of clinical symptoms, stabilizing tumor size, and increasing the scores of Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS)than the control group,the difference being significant (P < 0.05 or P <0.01). Conclusion YU Yun pulse-feeling-based acupuncture therapy exerts certain curative effect for the treatment of middle-late liver cancer.

Therefore, thetopic was selected in order to clarify some issues of history and theory of the pulse feeling method andto prove the method with practical application.Goal and objectivesThe goal of the research is determining some theoretical issues of traditional medical diagnosticmethod, pulse feeling and proving the effectiveness of the method to determine pregnancy and genderof fetus by practical use. The following objectives are defined:1. Conduct research regarding the theoretical concept of pulse feeling and compare it with thesources in Eastern and Western books, literary works and scriptures;2. Determining pregnancies and feeling the pulses of pregnant women admitted to maternityhospital to identify the gender of fetusMaterials and Мethods50 women admitted to “City Palace of Maternity” hospital and 50 mothers who were hospitalized atpre-natal and post-natal division participated in the study.Used following methods:1. Comparison method2. Pulse feeling method for determining gender of a baby and pregnancyResultsWhen feeling the pulse, the index finger is pressed lightly to feel the skin, the middle finger is pressedwith medium pressure to feel the muscle tissue and the ring finger is pressed hard to feel the boneof the doctor is pressed lightly in order to distinguish the twisted blood flow changes overcoming theresistance of sequential pressure.

ABSTRACT
Chi-pulse diagnosis is a kind of pulse diagnosis by only feeling Chi part of pulse.This method focuses on inborn Yin-yang,fire-water,and growth and decline of kidney essence,emphasizes on the physiological and pathological changes of eight extra meridians and extra viscera,clarifies and expands the content of narrow sense of yin-yang method.Chi-pulse diagnosis is prone to guided by the spot pulse feeling,do not limited by regular pulse name,and has special pulse diagnose experience and fixed knowledge of formula prescription.
