RESUMEN
Objective To obtain the classification and characteristics of acupuncture manipulations by analyzing teacher's lifting-thrusting manipulation parameters derived from Germany-made Simi Motion 3D image analysis system using self-organizing feature map neural network (SOM). Method Thirty acupuncture teachers were selected for the study. Unilateral Quchi (LI11) was used as a point for acupuncture. A motion video of lifting-thrusting even reinforcing-reducing, reinforcing and reducing manipulations was made. The video was analyzed using Simi Motion 3D image analysis system to obtain original motion parameters at thumb tip tracking mark point. Teacher's manipulation classification parameters were analyzed using SOM. Result Acupuncture manipulation parameters showed nonnormal distribution with larger dispersion. Even reinforcing-reducing and reinforcing manipulations could be classified into four types and reducing manipulation, into five types. The characteristics of every type showed general concentration degree. Conclusion Acupuncture manipulation parameters overall showed the diversity characteristics of nonnormal distribution and are typical artificial control curve. They have the characteristic of lower concentration degree of neural network classification. Their classification is mainly based on curve shape and cycle length and related to the degree of difficulty of manipulation. This technique can be applied to the quantitative analysis of various manipulationsand the study of technical inheritance and provide reference for the standardization of acupuncture manipulation.
RESUMEN
Retrieving literature and summarizing the experience in lecturing acupuncture and clinical practice, the authors analyzed the objective reasons of pain during the needle insertion. Three factors are considered, including needles, skin tissue of inserting site and technique of insertion. The teaching program was discussed on how to alleviate or avoid pain during the concrete manipulation. It is viewed that no matter in teaching program of acupuncture or clinical operation, for alleviating pain during needle insertion, the key points must be on the rapid insertion through skin surface and the coordination of the puncture hand and pressing hand.
RESUMEN
The questionnaire was adopted so as to investigate the attitudes and recognition of the manufacture eneprises of TCM diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation equipment (DTRE) to the technical standards of, relevant products. It was found that the construction of the industrial standard and the national standard was lagged behind on TCM DTRE. Under the new situation, the enterprises are highly willing to participate in the development of the industrial, national and international standards and have a certain of understanding on the standard development. Nearly 80 % of enterprises believed that it was necessary to set up the relevant mirror organization for the development of industrial, national and international standard of TCM DITRE. In the future, the standard construction of TCM DTRE must face to the new situation. The constant increasing of the enterprises. and scientific research organizations in the standard construction must promote the development of TCM DTRE.

RESUMEN
The studies of the simulation of acupuncture manipulation mainly focus on mechanical simulation and virtual simulation (SIM). In terms of mechanical simulation, the aim of the research is to develop the instruments of the simulation of acupuncture manipulation, and to apply them to the simulation or a replacement of the manual acupuncture manipulation; while the virtual simulation applies the virtual reality technology to present the manipulation in 3D real-time on the computer screen. This paper is to summarize the recent research progress on computer simulation of acupuncture manipulation at home and abroad, and thus concludes with the significance and the rising problems over the computer simulation of acupuncture manipulation. Therefore we put forward that the research on simulation manipulation should pay much attention to experts' manipulation simulation, as well as the verification studies on conformity and clinical effects.

RESUMEN
To research the effects of electroacupuncture on different quantitative parameters on analgesia in rats with adjuvant-induced arthritis. Rats of adjuvant-induced arthritis were treated by electroacupuncture with different waveforms. Pain threshold and swelling degree of joint were observed. Electroacupuncture parameters being selected were measured by frequency spectrum analysis. After treatment, the pain thresholds in the electroacupuncture groups with different waveforms were higher than that of the model group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01); the local swelling degree of inflammation of the electroacupuncture groups were higher than that of the model group (P < 0.01), but was lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). Frequency, current, voltage and pulse width of successive wave and intermittent wave were similar. Frequency,current, voltage and pulse width of sound electric wave changed continuously. The results were that all the electroacupuncture with different waveforms had the analgesic effect in rats with adjuvant-induced arthritis and the therapeutic effect of the electroacupuncture of sound electric wave was the best. It is reasonable and important that electroacupuncture parameter should be quantified.

OBJECTIVE: To apply the real-time data collection and demonstration system for acupuncture manipulation to quantitative analysis of acupuncture manipulation for acupuncture teaching and research. METHODS: The real-time observation and analysis of parameter changes of acupuncture manipulation were implemented by this system. RESULTS: During the course of lifting and thrusting manipulation, the needle body moved in a uniform variable motion, and the action force was still kept while the arrival of Qi was achieved. During the course of twirling manipulation, the variations of twirling number and radian caused the changes of resistance moment, and this reaction was related to the body response. During the course of rotating and shaking manipulation, the radius for rotating and shaking was related to such factors as the force, the action point and the direction. CONCLUSION: The real-time data collection and demonstration system for acupuncture manipulation can provide a new experimental method for quantitative data analysis, standardized research and teaching demonstration of acupuncture.
RESUMEN
MS96A type spectrum analyzer was applied to determine the spectral characteristic of near infrared radiated by moxa stick moxi-bustion, ginger-partitioned moxibustion, garlic-partitioned moxibustion and Aconium Carmichaeli-par titioned moxibustion. The spectrum of moxa stick moxibustion was relatively discrete and several wave crests are appeared. But in the spectrum of ginger-partitioned moxibustion, garlic-partitioned moxibustion or Aconium Carmichaeli-partitioned moxibustion, a specific and relatively steady wave crest formed respectively. It was concluded different indirect moxibustion could bring respective spectrum of near infrared and have the relevant physiologic and biochemical effects.
