Exploration on the central cerebral analgesic mechanism of Tuina intervention in lumbar disc herniation based on fMRI
Lumbar disc herniation(LDH)is a common clinical disease,low back pain and dysfunction are the main symptoms,which may be accompanied by lower limb pain,numbness,or weakness.Brain functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI)has high spatio-temporal resolution and accuracy,and has the characteristics of safety,non-invasiveness and non-radiation,which are gradually increasing in the application of in vivo brain function testing in humans and animals,and can revel the central brain mechanism of LDH pain.The analgesic effect of Tuina in treating LDH is significant,but its brain analgesic mechanism has not yet attracted sufficient attention.Based on the fMRI to explore the LDH pain brain mechanism and the central analgesic mechanism of Tuina intervention in LDH brain,multi-dimensional analysis from low-frequency amplitude,functional connectivity,regional homogeneity and default network and other indicators can provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treat.
