A Study on the Metabolic Characteristics of Meridian Phenomenon for the Heart and Lung Meridians Based on Patients With Stable Angina Pectoris

Although some important progresses were made in the field of the meridian research, no breakthroughs have been achieved. Besides,there are some problems in meridian researches. Particularly, previous research of meridian phenomenon involved lots of subjective elements and outcomes.Researches that use modern scientific techniques to investigate the biological characteristics of meridian phenomenon are urgently needed. Therefore, this study is designed to assess the metabolic characteristics of meridian phenomenon for the Heart and Lung meridians by using near infrared spectroscopy. Thus, the biological characteristics of meridian phenomenon could be presented objectively in a scientific methodology.
