Based on the development of conditions, the etiology and pathogenesis of (muscle region of meridian) diseases are summarized as 3 stages, i.e. stagnation due to over-exertion at early stage, manifested by tendon-muscle contracture and tenderness; cold condition due to stagnation, interaction of stasis and cold, resulting in clustered nodules at the middle stage; prolonged illness and missed/delayed treatment, leading to tendon-muscle contracture and impairment of joint function at the late stage. It is proposed that the treatment of diseases should be combined with the characteristic advantages of fire needling and bloodletting technique, on the base of "eliminating stagnation and bloodletting/fire needling". This combined therapy warming to resolve stasis and dispels cold to remove nodules, in which, eliminating the stagnation is conductive to the tissue regeneration, and the staging treatment is delivered in terms of the condition development at different phases.

Article Synopsis
  • * The study focused on Harris mud crabs to assess mercury concentrations in both soft and hard tissues, using a Direct Mercury Analyzer; findings showed that organism size influenced the processes of mercury biodilution and bioaccumulation throughout different seasons.
  • * The research indicated that mercury distribution in the crabs is influenced by its source, with certain forms of mercury being transferred to the crab's carapace to protect soft tissues, potentially reducing human health risks and toxicity in the food web.

The effect of reinforcing and reducing techniques of moxibustion depends on types of moxibustion, operation methods and characteristics of acupoints. According to the ups and downs of pathogenic factors and healthy during the occurrence and development of prostate cancer, three stages are divided, namely, the stage of initial accumulation of cancer toxicity, the stage of the deficiency of healthy and toxin retention, and the stage of deficiency and cold stagnation. In the stage of initial accumulation of cancer toxicity, function is impaired and the dampness, heat and stasis toxin are accumulated in the body; due to which, the reducing technique of moxibustion should be dominant and the healthy be supported in combination.
