OBJECTIVE: To explore the needle insertion parameters of deep acupuncture at Baliao points for clinic and teaching. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of 100 cases of prone pelvic CT from January to June 2016 in Nanjing Hospital was carried out. The 3 D images were scanned with continuous 5 mm slice thickness. The optimum needle angle is defined as the angle of the needle along the central axis of sacral anterior and posterior hole, and the angle between the needle body and the skin surface and the center line of the body was observed. The effect needle depth is defined as the thickness of the sacral back soft tissue plus 1/2 sacral depth, to observe the best needle angle of deep acupuncture parameters of Baliao points. RESULTS: For deep acupuncture at Baliao, the oblique thorn method should be used with the needle-point toward the inner bottom. The best insertion angle between needle body and skin surface is: Shangliao(BL 31) (61.04±12.15)°， Ciliao(BL 32) (57.57±10.01)°， Zhongliao(BL 33) (58.25±8.69)°， Xialiao(BL 34) (54.39±10.94)°. The optimum angle of insertion between the needle body and the posterior midline of the human body is: BL 31 (24.54±6.21)°， BL 32 (18.58±7.76)°， BL 33 (17.36±7.90)°， BL 34 (30.73±9.45)°. The effective insertion depth show a decreasing trend: BL 31 (58.16±12.43) mm, BL 32 (44.57±11.55) mm, BL 33 (33.96±10.74) mm, BL 34 (31.13±10.94) mm. The effective depth is positively correlated with BMI, and has no correlation with gender and weight. CONCLUSIONS: The study of the parameters of needle insertion should be taken into account both clinical efficacy and safety, and CT three-dimensional reconstruction can accurately, rationally and scientifically perform acupoint anatomical measurements.
Résumé
Os Neossolos Regolíticos apresentam baixo potencial de uso devido a sua pequena profundidade efetiva, à presença de pedregosidade/rochosidade, ao contato lítico próximo à superfície e à ocorrência frequente em terrenos declivosos. Análises mais detalhadas são necessárias para a melhor interpretação desses solos, visto que a filtragem da água de percolação, retenção de solutos e fluídos e sua possível transformação são de interesse ambiental. Nesse sentido, este estudo gerou informações sobre a infiltração de água em cinco áreas de Neossolos Regolíticos, na região do Rebordo do Planalto do Rio Grande do Sul. Para cada área foram descritos e analisados três perfis, sendo a infiltração de água determinada pelo método dos duplos anéis concêntricos. Mesmo com idêntica classificação taxonômica até o quarto nível categórico, os Neossolos apresentaram variações no seu comportamento hídrico, inclusive quando comparados entre os perfis do mesmo ponto de coleta. Os dados sugerem que a infiltração, nesses Neossolos, é influenciada pela configuração de fraturas do saprolito, granulometria, condições de relevo e uso do solo.
Neossolos Regolíticos (Regosols) are fragile from a natural resource perspective because of their small depth, stones and/or rocks presence, near surface lithic contact, fractures in saprolite and frequent occurrence in steep slopes. These soils requires more specific analysis for a better interpretation of their capacity to filtrate water, retain and transform solute and fluids, contributing to the maintenance of the water quality that reaches the groundwater. In that sense, this study generates information on water infiltration in five areas from the the Rio Grande do Sul plateau edge. Three profiles were described and analyzed for each Regosol and the water infiltration was performed whit the double rings method. Even showing the same taxonomic classification, the Regosols showed hydraulic variation behavior, even though when compared among the profiles from the same location. The data suggest that the water infiltration in the Regosols is affected by the saprolite fracture configurations, granulometry, relief conditions and soil use.
