1—63 A STUDY OF APPLICATION OF COMPUTER TO QIGONG
ENERGY
Guo Deyuan
Taichong Teachers' College ,Tai chong, China
The puspose of the present study is to use a computer to analyze the potential difference
of energetic meridians of the tody of a qigog mastes.
Qi and blood flow in meridians and the vasculas systam. I have prosed that qigong mas-
ters can contsol qi in meridians with his will by a computer.
By using a computer to store and analyze the signal ffom the human body
, I have ob-
tained the following results.
1. The potential difference and the number of variation of potential of a qigong master are
higher than other persons without qigong practice.
2. The potential difference of too points of the human body are changing with time.
3. The potential difference and the number of variation of potantial of human are influenced
by other persons. Both action in a distance and direct contact can change the potential dif-
ference and the number of variation of potential.
4. The number of variation of potantial of two points of the Large Intestine Meridian of a pa-
tient
is less than the number of healthy people, for example, the former
is 20, the later
is
200 .
5. A man without qigong practice closes his eyes like a qigong master to control qi with his
mind always lowers the potential difference and the number of variation of potential differ-
ence.
6. There was a low frequency (3Hertz) electromagnetic wave which radiated from other star
with high intensity making over 10000 mt voltaye in meridians have been found on July 8,
1992. This
signal
can make man
healthy.
It
was
written
in
the
Canon
of
Internal
Medicine
an 2500 years ago ancient chipese medical classic .
7. Comparing the number of vareation of potential difference of healthy persons and patients
,
we can diagnose precisely.
8. We can input and store the signals of a qigong master's
qi and output
it to ordinary per-
sons by a computer and we have found qi comes from a computer towards patients make
them healthy.

MAKING
FURTHER
ADVANCES
OF
THE
PUBLIC
HEALTH
CARE
FOR THE AGED WITH CHINESE
CHARACTERISTICS

To think
it necessary to make further advances of the public health care for the aged
with Chinese characteristics ,1 would like to discuss the issue in three aspects. First , according!
to scientific calculation , the life span of human beings might be 110— 120. But social and emo-'
tional factors cause human beings to get old or die early. So we should consider carefully the
health care of the aged and pay much attention to the most valuable thing— life of human be-l
ings since everyone knows
life
is short. Second, in our country , public health care has a long
history. Chinese people have paid attention to keeping
fit since ancient times. Therefore tra-
ditional health care has Chinese characteristics. It includes healthy drinks therapy, diet thera-
py and
qi therapy. Healthy drinks therapy -With the rising of the living standard
, more and!
more people in China have paid attention to the healthy drinks and the Chinese have the tra-
dition of having hot drinks, which is a distinct method of health care for the aged. Diet thera-
py: The Chinese have a lot of experience in regard to how to keep
fit and cure diseases with
food. We make use of different kinds of food such as porridge
, cooked rice, thick soups and
noodles. Qi therapy: Some think qi is the origin of everything. Peopled life
, birth
, death qual-
ity, dtc. are all related to
qi. The emergence and development of qigong study have relied on
the Struggle of the Chinese people against diseases and nature, and is a crystallization of col-
lectiye wisdom of the Chinese people. The recent study shows
: the emitted qi can damage bac-
teria and promote their growth, which
is concerned by qigong's power and will of the qigong
masters. Therefore
, we have proved the fact that the immune system
is somehow related to
the transmission and establishment of information
, which was the
first help for the further!
study of the nature of "two-way adjustment". Further experiments on viruses and cancer cells
j
indicate that qigong has biological effect and
is scientific
, objective and can be repeated
, which
provide a theoretical basis for qigong' s development. Qigong
is a science belonging to the fu-
j
ture study. With the development of science
, people will understand the nature of "qi" better
,
which belongs
to
the
science
of human body, we have done many medical researches on
qigong. We should also do biological and universal researches on qigong. Third
, through the
abovq discussion, we may know better about people's natural
life span, reasons for the com-
ing of old age and super old age, and the more important is that we know what to do in health

care of the aged with the Chinese characteristics and that we must do our best to help realize
the dream that people live to the natural life span, and for the purpose "health for everyone in

EFFECTS OF QIGONG ON PREVENTING STROKE AND
ALLEVIATING THE MULTIPLE CEREBRO-
CARDIOVASCULAR RISK FACTORS
A FOLLOW-UP

hai , China.
Stroke
is a commonly-seen disease. Hypertension, cardiac hypertropy
, abnormalities of
coagulation
fribrinolytic system and matabolism of apolipoprotien were an important risk
factor in stroke. Since 1958, a study of prospective comparision was undertaken to evaluate
the long-term effect of qigong in hypertensive patients.
I
. 242 hypertensive patients were divided randomly into the qigong group (treated by
qigong and small dosage of regular
, antihypertensive drugs n = 122)and the control group
(treated by the antihypertensive drugs only n=120). 30 years follow-up showed that their
blood pressure steady rate was 86. 81% and 68. 25% respectively (p<0. 01). The accumulatic
mortality rate during the follow-up period was 25. 41% in the qigong group,
47. 76% in the
control group (P<0. 001). Further analysis showed that the incidence of stroke and death due
to stroke in the qigong group was 20. 49% and 15. 57% respectively. Compared with 40. 83%
and 32. 50% in the control group, both rates in the qigong group were significantly lower (P
< 0 . 01 ).
I
. Ultrasonic cardiagram was performed on 40 hypertensive patients.
(1) Before treatment
, ejection fraction (EF) was
0. 57 ±0. 09, mitral vale distolic closing
velocity (EFV) was
0. 92+0. 30 and mean velocity of circumferential fiber shortening
(MVCF)was 68. 67 + 20. 40. After practising qigong for one year, they were
0. 64+
0. 10,1. 10+0. 26 and 76. 64+17. 41 respectively (P<0. 05— 0. 01).
(2)
Before treatment
, interventrical septal thickness (IVST) was 12. 96 + 1. 64(mm)and
posterior wall thickness (PWT) was 11. 38 + 1. 64(mm). After practising qigong for
one year, they were 11, 24+ 1. 81(mm)and
9. 98+ 1. 32(mm)respectively(P<C0. 01).
The above results indicated that qigong had benefical effect on improvement of the
left ventricular function as well as diminution of cardie hypertrophy,

, VIIIR
. Ag was 130. 40+ 41. 11
(%)and AT— I was 27. 99 + 3. 48(mg/dl). After one year of practising qigong
, plasma PAI
(8. 10 + 1. 68Iu/ml)and VIIRjAg(131. 50 + 38. 35%)levels decreased
, while plasma tpA(2;
66 + 0. 73Iu/ml)and AT
I (34. 41 + 7. 09mg/dl)increased. The above results suggested that
qigong could play a major role in improvement of the function of coagulation—the firbrinolyt-
ic system.
IV
% Serum apolipoprotien was performed on 40 hypertensive patients. Before treatment,
levels of ApoA; ApoB and ApoA/ApoB ratio were 117. 89+ 31. 03(g/l),118. 15 + 18. 24(g/l)
and
1. 00+0. 61 respectively. After practising qigong for one year, they were 133. 58 + 28. 16
(g/lp, 102. 21 + 19. 17(g/l)and 1.31 + 0.71 respectively (P<0. 05^0. 001). These findings
suggested that qigong had benefical effect on improvement of metabolism of apolipoprotien.
According to both our past and present investigations
, we believe that qigong plays
a
major role in improving the self-regulation and alleviating the multiple cerebro-cardiovascular
risk
| factors, this might be one
of mechanisms
of which hypertension was
controlled and
stroke was prevented.

A STUDY OF THE RECUPERATIVE FUNCTION OF
QIGONG ON HYPERTENSIVE TARGET IMPAIRMENT
Xu Dinghai,Wang Chongxing
Shanghai Institute of Hypertension, Shanghai 200025, China
Hypertension
is a commonly-seen disease of the middle aged and eldely,and a series of
targpt impairment
is caused while the disease proceeds and blood pressure rises, so far except
for lowering blood pressure by drugs
, non-medicament traditional Chinese therapy
attracts!
man' s attention especially. This study discovers that the function of the heart, brain and kid-
ney in the aged hypertensive patients are worse than those of the same age without hyperten-
sion. It suggests that long term hypertension actually impairs the functions of the heart, brain
and kidney. A comprehensive treatment in which qigong plays the main role was adopted at
the same time. By a contrast analysis before and
after qigong training (one year), and by
adopting modern objective
indices
, we discoverd the abnormal
rate
of isoelectric
statistical
mapping analysis of EEG reflecting the function of the brain improved remarkably. The total
abnormal rate of isoelectric statistical mapping analysis of EEG decreased from 63. 3 % to 26.
7 % ,The difference
is significant. Ejection Fraction(EF)and Mean Velocity of circumferential
fibre shortening (MCVF) reflecting cardiac function increased remarkably. Cardiac output
in-
creased too, and the total external resistance decreased. Urinary IgM was from 0. 268+ 0. 100
to
0. 062 + 0. 092. The difference was significant. It suggests qigong training not only stabi-
lizes blood pressure but
also retards
the degeneration
of the
heart, brain and kidney. The
study elucidates that qigong is a simple and useful method for recuperation.
