第三次世界醫學氣功大會論文--淄博肿瘤医院《中西醫和氣功綜合治療120例中晚期食道癌》

第三次世界醫學氣功大會論文 《中西醫和氣功綜合治療120例中晚期食道癌》 《Complementary Treatment of Late Staged Esophageal Cancer Using Western, Chinese Medicine and Qigong Therapy》 Study and Written By : Cong Jing, Zhang Qiang, Chen Jun, Yang Aiying (Tumor Hospital, Zibo 255067 China) This Abstract has been examined, accepted and published by The Third World Conference of Medical Qigong in both in Chinese and English. The English report is not as detailed as the Chinese report. This edited version is a combination of both reports. A comprehensive therapy of Chinese-Western medicine and qigong has been adopted in our hospital since May, 1991-Dec. 1995. Chinese medicine: compound Tianxian capsule; Western medicine: radiotherapy and (or) chemotherapy according to patients' pathology type and specific conditions; Qigong: Guolin New Qigong: natural movement, express movement relaxation static qigong, sound qigong, one two three steps walking and fast walking. It combines traditional Chinese medicine with modern medicine and integrates biology--society--psycho medicine together. Modern testing methods, such as imaging and laboratory tests etc. were employed to observe 120 cases suffering from medium to late staged esophageal cancer before and after self - treatment. After statistical management, the result was as follows: Groups Number Bone Marrow Suppression Nausea & Vomiting Liver & Kidney damage Loss of Hair Fever P Value Before Therapy 120 24 (0.2) 22 (0.183) 2 (0.017) 10 (0.083) 4 (0.033) After Therapy 120 16 (0.133) 0 0 0 0 <0.01 Years after Therapy Beginning Number of Patients Number of Mortality of this Illness Number of Mortality of other Illnesses Number of Losing Contact During the Period Adjusted Number During the Period Rate of Mortality Rate of Survivors Cumulative Rate of Survivors 1st year 120 22 14 0 113 0.1947 0.8053 0.8053 2nd year 84 24 6 10 76 0.3158 0.6842 0.5510 3rd year 44 2 4 16 34 0.0588 0.9412 0.5185 4th year 22 2 6 8 15 .01333 0.8667 0.4494 5th year 6 1 0 0 6 0.1667 0.8333 0.3745 The final result: the survival rate: 5 years: 37.45%; medium survival period:2-3 years. This survival rate is obviously longer compared to that of other therapies reported so far. (survival rate: 16-20% for 5 years; medium survival period: 17 months) The study shows that the comprehensive therapy of Chinese-Western medicine and qigong has the function of improving the curative effect, relieving side effects, improving physical state, and prolonging the survival period. Therefore it is the best therapy in the treatment of medium to late staged esophageal cancer so far. ==================== 第三次世界醫學氣功大會論文 《中西醫和氣功綜合治療120例中晚期食道癌》 《采用西醫中医和气功疗法互补治疗晚期食管癌》 研究作者:张蔷,陈俊,丛景,杨爱英(肿瘤医院,淄博255067中国) 本摘要的中英文版本已被第三屆世界醫學氣功大会审查通過並出版。英文报告不如中文报告详细。此报告是兩個版本的编辑组合。 我院自1991年5月至1995年12月期間採用了中西医气功综合疗法。 中醫:用中药复方天仙胶囊; 西醫:放疗和(或)根据患者的病理类型和具体条件化疗; 气功:郭林新气功:自然行功,快功,放鬆静功,吐音功,一二三步點功,快步行功。 這是结合了中西医与现代医学—社会—心理学-生物学的结合。 现代测试方法,如成像圖形和实验室测试等方法,观察120例中晚期食管癌患者在郭林氣功自我鍛煉之前和之后。 经过统计管理,结果如下: 组 骨髓抑制,恶心、呕吐的次数 肝和肾的头发热P值的损失 治疗前 120,24(0.2)22(0.183) 2 0.017 10 0.083 4 0.033。 治疗后 120,16(0.133)0 0 0 0<0.01 治疗后的年 从患者数 这种疾病的死亡人数 对其他疾病的死亡率 一些期间失去联系 调整数期间 死亡率 生存率 幸存者累积率 第一年 120 22 14 0 113 0.1947 0.8053 0.8053 第二年 84 24 6 10 76 0.3158 0.6842 0.5510 第三年 44 2 4 16 34 0.0588 0.9412 0.5185 第四年 22 2 6 8 15 01333 0.8667 0.4494 第五年 6 1 0 0 6 0.1667 0.8333 0.3745 最后的结果: 成活率:5年:37.45%;媒介生存期:2年。 这种生存率明显更长的时间比其他的治疗方法到目前为止。 (生存率:16-20% 5年生存期:17个月;介质) 研究表明,中国的西方医学和气功综合治疗提高疗效的作用,减轻副作用,提高身体的状态,并延长生存期。 因此,这是最好的治疗中晚期食管癌的治疗到目前为止。

MD Anderson’s Integrative Medicine Program Shows Success in Qigong Study Posted Thursday , May 23,2013 The Integrative Medicine Program at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center is a program in which studies are done on integrative medicine for cancer patients. Integrative medicine is one in which the whole-body approach is used to treat a disease, in which some holistic ancient forms of alternative therapies are used in conjunction with traditional western medicine. Dr. Lorenzon Cohen, professor at M.D. Anderson’s Departments of General Oncology and Behavioral Science and director of the Integrative Medicine Program, describes integrative medicine in The Houston Chronicle: “We focus on the relation between the practitioner and the patients, and we are informed by evidence – we don’t want to be prescribing things to our patients for which there is no evidence of safety or of benefit. Also, in integrative medicine we seek to make use of all possible avenues for healing that may work.” This differs from both alternative medicine and complimentary medicine – the former uses holistic treatments in place of traditional medical treatments, while the latter is similar to integrative medicine but uses even unproven types of alternative medicine as long as it does no harm to the patient (such as having a patient maintain a certain healthy diet that is not proven to be effective on healing). By combining only methods of treatment for patients that have been shown to have positive results, they are able to offer a more effective treatment regimen. As stated on the website, the MD Anderson Cancer Center’s Integrative Medicine Program seeks to “engage patients with cancer and their families to become active partners in their own physical, psycho-spiritual, and social health through personalized evidence-based clinical care, exceptional research, and education to optimize health, quality of life, and clinical outcomes across the cancer continuum.” In one recent successful study performed by Cohen and his colleagues, 96 Chinese women in Shanghai with breast cancer were evaluated as they received a course of radiation as well as followed up with over time to determine the true long-term effects of the treatment. The women were randomized and some used Qigong, an ancient Chinese mind-body practice which involves meditation, while the others did not. In the women who practiced Qigong, depression was lessened over time, particularly in those women whose depression was the highest in the beginning. The women who did not practice Qigong saw no difference in their level of depression over time. The results show that this type of integrative medicine can reduce the stress on cancer patients, and this can potentially promote healing. As Cohen says, “It is important for cancer patients to manage stress because it can have a profoundly negative effect on biological systems and inflammatory profiles.” Qigong (meaning in English “energy cultivation” or “working with the life energy”) is a ritual that involves physical exercises and meditative breathing related to tai chi. Its ancient practice is based in the belief that the body is made up of energy (called “qi”) and that regulating this energy can enhance and promote health within the body. The success of this recent study by the Integrative Medicine Program at MD Anderson Cancer Center along with other studies will no doubt lead to encouragement of integrative therapy and a whole-body approach to healing for cancer patients.
