正常女大学生经期穴位体表温度与室内温度和湿度相关性分析

摘要

目的:通过观察正常女大学生经期经穴体表温度和同名穴位温差与室内温度和湿度的相关性,判断以这两个指标作为经穴反映胞宫功能状态的客观指标时,是否应考虑环境因素的影响.方法:正常女大学生49人,选取胞宫相关经穴血海、地机、中都、三阴交、太溪、太白、太冲、水泉,非相关经穴悬钟以及悬钟旁非经非穴,于经期第1天连续动态探测各测试点体表温度60 min,每10 min记录1次室内温度和湿度.利用发展模型建立因变量x(室内温度或温差)与y(体表温度或温差)之间的关系,进而判断两者的变化是否相关.结果:正常女大学生经期第1天双侧血海、地机、中都、悬钟、非穴的体表温度与室内温度呈正相关(P＜0.05)；各测试点同名穴位温差与室内温度相关性不显著(P＞0.05)；各测试点的体表温度与室内湿度相关性不显著(P＞0.05)；各测试点同名穴位温差与室内湿度相关性不显著(P＞0.05).结论:经穴体表温度较同名穴位温差易受室内温度的影响,两者均不易受室内湿度的影响,推测如果经穴体表温度作为反映胞宫生理及病理变化的客观指标时应该把室内温度作为协变量考虑,建议采用同名穴位温差作为穴位反映机体生理及病理变化的客观指标.%Objective To observe the relationship between the cutaneous temperature of the acupoint area and the environmental temperature and humidity in healthy female undergraduate student volunteers. Methods Forty-nine healthy female undergraduate student volunteers experiencing menstruation were enrolled in the present study. The cutaneous temperature of the acupoint region was detected for 60 min by using a "dynamic skin temperature detector" and under room temperature of (22. 15±1.47)13 and indoor relative humidity of (50. 12 + 4. 52)%. The detected acupoints were XuehaKSP 10), Diji(SP 8), Zhongdu (LR 6), Sanyiniiao(SP 6), Taixi (Kl 3), TaibaKSP 3), Taichong(LR 3) and Shuiquan(KI 5)which have been well documented in effectively regulating uterine activity, and Xuanzhong(GB 39) and non-meridian acupoint nearby GB 39. The skin temperature measurement was conducted on the first day of menstruation. Results The skin temperature levels of Xuehai (SP 10), Diji (SP 8), Zhongdu (LR 6), Xuanzhong (GB 39) and non-acupoint near GB 39 were apparently hig-her under higher temperature, showing a significant relevance between the acupoint skin temperature and room temperature(P<0- 05). No significant differences were found between skin temperature levels of Sanyinjiao(SP 6). Taixi (Kl 3). TaibaKSP 3), Taichong(LR 3)and Shuiquan(KI 5)and the indoor temperature (P>0. 05), between the skin temperature difference of the bilateral isonym acupoints and the indoor temperature, and between the skin temperature difference and the indoor humidity (P>0. 05). Conclusion The skin temperature of some acupoints is influenced by the environment temperature rather than the indoor humidity.
