Background. Acupuncture is applied to treat numerous diseases in pediatric patients. Few reports have been published on the depth to which it is safe to insert needle acupoints in pediatric patients. We evaluated the depths to which acupuncture needles can be inserted safely in chest acupoints in pediatric patients and the variations in safe depth according to sex, age, body weight, and body mass index (BMI). Methods. We retrospectively studied computed tomography (CT) images of pediatric patients aged 4 to 18 years who had undergone chest CT at China Medical University Hospital from December 2004 to May 2013. The safe depth of chest acupoints was directly measured from the CT images. The relationships between the safe depth of these acupoints and sex, age, body weight, and BMI were analyzed. Results. The results demonstrated significant differences in depth among boys and girls at KI25 (kidney meridian), ST16 (stomach meridian), ST18, SP17 (spleen meridian), SP19, SP20, PC1 (pericardium meridian), LU2 (lung meridian), and GB22 (gallbladder meridian). Safe depth significantly differed among the age groups (P < 0.001), weight groups (P < 0.05), and BMI groups (P < 0.05). Conclusion. Physicians should focus on large variations in needle depth during acupuncture for achieving optimal therapeutic effect and preventing complications.

Thirty male rabbits with acute myocardial ischemia were randomly assigned to 3 groups, model group, Tianchi-acupuncture group and non-point acupuncture group. 5-nucleotidase, succinate dehydrogenase, RNA and catecholamines (CA) fluorescence in the adrenal cortex and medullar were developed with histochemical methods and compared quantitatively with an image pattern analyzer. Results showed that acupuncture of Tianchi point (PC1) reduced secretion of CA, prevented exhaustion of CA, increased reactivity of 5-nucleotidase, succinate dehydrogenase and RNA, strengthened functions of adrenocortical cells.
