Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Fibromyalgia patients present with widespread chronic pain
and other symptoms. Some studies in the literature have reported
inconsistent results after a Qigong exercise intervention in patients
with fibromyalgia. The purpose of this study was to test the
feasibility of a home-based Qigong exercise in patients with
fibromyalgia.

METHODS: A total of 14 subjects were randomly assigned into one of two
groups. The experimental group went through a six-week Qigong exercise
program involving meditation, deep breathing, and synchronized
rhythmic body movements. The control group took part in a sham Qigong
exercise program using the same body movements also for six weeks.
Clinical assessments at baseline and end of intervention used the
Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire, Multidimensional Fatigue
Inventory, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, and Fibromyalgia Impact
Questionnaire.

RESULTS: Group mean scores of four measurements were significantly
(p<0.0125) reduced in the intervention group, but not in the control
group. The percentage changes in the four measurements were 44.2%,
24.8%, 37.3%, and 44.3% in the intervention group, and 10.1%, 6.3%,
9.9%, and 11.8% in the control group.

CONCLUSION: Qigong exercise may potentially be an effective
self-management approach in controlling FM symptoms. In this pilot
study, regular daily Qigong exercise, accumulated number of exercise
sessions, and the specific form of Qigong exercise may all be
important factors for the significant improvement in the study
subjects. Future research is required to determine whether the same
benefit can be obtained in a larger sample.

Keywords

web digest-解放軍301醫院呼吸科退休老專家黃念秋教授:郭林新氣功將成為抗癌史上的里程碑載入醫學手冊

郭林新氣功以自身的真純、美德和實效贏得了患者、贏得了社會，這些客觀的優勢決定了它，必將不脛而走，迅速廣揚於世.

郭林新氣功是被廣大學者、專家們的科學研究成果所肯定了的新型氣功這樣以實效著稱的好功法一經問世，自然會引起社會各界的廣泛關注。特別是激起與之相關的患者、學界、醫學界、科學界的人士的興趣；他們先是探知其虛實，進而求索其機理。於是各種不同病種、不同情況、不同範圍的統計結果出現了。各種直接或間接引用中外科學研究成果以詮釋新氣功祛病、治癌機理的假說也紛紛問世。應該說這些努力對宣傳普及和推進新氣功的研究都作出了一定的貢獻。其統計結果在一定場合下，針對具體情況也具有一定參考價值。在探索機理方面，雖距離破解氣功的本質尚很遙遠，但總可以說，是在不斷地向著目標逼近。


由於專家、學者們的參與；對其患者對象的條件作了嚴格、科學的規範；對所用的儀器、設備都作了精準的標定。因此，他們的研究結果更加符合客觀實際、其結論更具備科學的普遍性。


如301醫院的黃念秋教授的科研成果，就具有這類研究的代表性。她以自己科研成果撰寫的《郭林新氣功鍛煉中的癌症患者335例調查報告》等三篇論文。對確定郭林新氣功抗癌、治癌的有效性；對“風呼吸功法”、“吐音功法”的抗癌、治癌的機理提供了科學有力的詮釋。成為深入探究新氣功機理的楷模。因而，榮獲1995年度中國氣功科學研究會學術委員會林宏裕科研基金會頒發的一等獎。


類似的研究還很多，如：王極盛、孫桂芝、查良琦、徐荷芬、李家慶、黃袁東等專家、醫生、學者們也都在不同領域對郭林新氣功實效做了有益的研究與探索，讀者可閱覽（《郭林新氣功抗癌防病新探索》及《郭林新氣功——抗癌作用及機理的探討》等讀物）以獲翔實。


郭林新氣功其所以被專家、醫生、學者們極度關注，並投入其中研究、探索；全在於其“內涵”之實效性。我們在最後想引用解放軍301醫院呼吸科退休老專家黃念秋教授，在其研究論文中的一段話，來結束此文：


“應該感謝郭林老師為癌症病人創造了這套簡便易行，經濟有效且適應症廣的抗癌手段；使許多病人得到再生，重新投入社會主義建設。它所創造的經濟效益和社會效益是巨大的；郭林新氣功的抗癌效果，使我們看到了以往在治癌問題上的片面與不足。這次對氣功鍛煉中的癌症患者的調查；對我們的震動和教育是深刻的，它使我們的認識得到一次飛躍。實踐—認識—再實踐—再認識,永遠是認識事物的規律;相信郭林新氣功將成為抗癌史上的里程碑載入醫學手冊。至於郭林新氣功的治癌機理如何，還有待進一步研究探討。這是一項難度很大卻又極有意義的研究課題需要多學科協同作戰，互相學習，團結奮鬥。氣功治癌機理的揭示不僅將為征服癌症邁開新的一步，也將為人體科學的發展起到積極的推動作用。”
