【摘要】 目的评价能量治疗减缓动脉粥样硬化进展和减少神经内分泌、交感神经系统激活标记物的可能性。方法将18只喂食高胆固醇饮食的家兔分成2组,能量治疗(Reiki)组每天接受能量治疗,探访者面对兔笼,能量流通过他们的手发送到家兔身上。对照组每天由从未受过训练的个体探访。10周以后,家兔的整个主动脉被取出并用苏丹红染色。应用放射免疫方法或酶联免疫方法对实验前血浆胆固醇、促肾上腺皮质激素(ACTH)、氢化可的松、肾上腺素水平进行检测。结果2组的动脉粥样硬化病变面积比较无显著性差异(P>0.05)。实验后2组胆固醇水平均显著升高,ACTH水平显著降低,2组之间比较无显著性差异(P均>0.05)。2组间肾上腺素、氢化可的松水平比较无显著性差异(P均>0.05)。结论能量治疗对减缓动脉粥样硬化的进展和降低压力标记物的血浆水平无显著作用。更多还原

【Abstract】 Objective It is to evaluate the possibility of Reiki to retard the progression of atherosclerosis and decrease markers of neuroendocrine and sympathetic nervous system activation in animal mods.Methods 18 Cholesterol-fed rabbits were divided into 2 groups and received daily visits from 4 Reiki healers or from 4 untrained individuals for 10 weeks.The practitioner faced the cages and "beam" energy through the palms of their hands.After 10 weeks,the entire aorta of rabbit was removed and stained by Sudan IV.The levels of plasma cholesterol,ACTH,cortisol,epinephrine were examined at pre-and post-test by radioimmunoassay or ELISA.Results There was no significant difference in aortic atherosclerotic lesion areas between both groups(P>0.05).There were significant elevation of cholesterol levels and decrease of ACTH levels at post-test in both groups,but there was no significant differences between both groups(P>0.05).There were no significant differences in levels of epinephrine and cortisol between both groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The Reiki has not significant effects to retard the progression of atherosclerosis and decrease plasma levels of the stress markers.更多还原
