Objective: To search for the morphological evidence of five-shu-point so as to explain the theory of the five-shu-point more reasonably.
Methods: Carefully study on Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic and compare with the modern anatomic knowledge.
Conclusion: The theory of five-shu-point is closely related with the theory of blood vessels. The distributional pattern of the superficial vein on the remote parts of the limbs (below the elbow or the knee joints) is the morphological basis for the theory of five-shu-point.

Skin Conductance-Based Acupoint and Non-Acupoint Recognition Using Machine Learning.
IEEE J Biomed Health Inform
May 2024
Acupoints (APs) prove to have positive effects on disease diagnosis and treatment, while intelligent techniques for the automatic detection of APs are not yet mature, making them more dependent on manual positioning. In this paper, we realize the skin conductance-based APs and non-APs recognition with machine learning, which could assist in APs detection and localization in clinical practice. Firstly, we collect skin conductance of traditional Five-Shu Point and their corresponding non-APs with wearable sensors, establishing a dataset containing over 36000 samples of 12 different AP types.

(), as one of the classics of traditional Chinese medicine, is concerned as the supplement and summarization of some theory recorded in the (). Five- point is one of the commonly used important acupoints, the "indications of the five-" raised by has been weighing a lot since the beginning, not only in the constructing of acupuncture-moxibustion theory, but in clinical practice. However, "indications of the five-" was actually deduced from the five-elements theory in the first place.

Objective: To explore distribution of the Liver and Lung Channels in the brain so as to provide imaging basis for construction of channel theory in the brain.
Methods: Sixty healthy student volunteers were randomly divided into a Liver Channel group (I) and a Lung Channel group (II), and the each group was further divided into five subgroups with 6 volunteers in each subgroup, based on five-shu-point principles which, were Dadun (LR 1, I 1), Xingjian (LR 2, I 2), Taichong (LR 3, I 3), Zhongfeng (LR 4, I 4), Ququan (LR 8, I 5), Shaoshang (LU 11, II 1), Yuji (LU 10, II 2), Taiyuan (LU 9, II 3), Jingqu (LU 8, II 4), and Chize (LU 5, II 5), respectively. In order to observe the brain activating patterns during acupuncture at the different acupoints, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) technique was adopted.
