Zhongwan point has the function of harmonizing the stomach and strengthening the spleen. , the effect of reducing indigestion and diuresis.
Zhongwan point has the functions of regulating qi and regulating the stomach, dispersing dampness and reducing indigestion [3]. The meridians are closely related, for example, the Taiyin meridian of the hand "reaches the stomach and belongs to the small intestine"; the Taiyin meridian of the hand "also runs along the stomach"; the Taiyin meridian of the foot "belongs to the spleen and connects the stomach...it separates from the stomach, goes up the diaphragm, and focuses on the heart". The collaterals "enter the intestines and stomach"; the Foot Yangming Meridian "goes down to the diaphragm, belongs to the stomach, and connects the spleen"; the Foot Jueyin Meridian "holds the stomach, belongs to the liver, and connects the gallbladder". According to the principle of "where the meridians pass, the main treatment is reached", this acupoint can be used to treat meridian diseases related to the stomach. In other words, stomach diseases caused by abnormality of multiple meridians can be treated by this acupoint. In addition, because the Zhongwan point is the acupoint of the stomach, the stomach is responsible for accepting and decomposing water and grain, and is the sea of ??the internal organs. When food enters the stomach, the internal organs all send qi to the stomach. If the function of the stomach and internal organs is abnormal, the source of qi and blood biochemistry is insufficient. Improper nutrition of the organs and meridians can lead to the occurrence of many diseases. Therefore, treating the stomach is the basis for treating many diseases. To sum up, this point is a must-use point for treating digestive system diseases. Zhongwan can be used as the main treatment for weakness of the spleen and stomach and loss of transportation and transformation caused by any reason. At the same time, this point is also a commonly used point for the treatment of various diseases. [2]

Acupuncture at Zhongwan has an adjustment effect on gastrointestinal function. This effect is related to the original functional status and the acupuncture technique. If it is originally in a weak or moderate peristaltic state, the peristalsis can be enhanced. If it is in a strong state, this effect will not be obvious. When a weak drug is used, it can promote gastric peristalsis; when a strong drug is used, it inhibits gastric peristalsis. It also has a certain promoting effect on gastric acid secretion. Horseradish peroxidase was injected into the spinal cord and the segmental distribution of labeled cells in the spinal ganglion was observed. It was found that the afferent neurons in the spinal cord were located in the spinal ganglion from the 7th thoracic vertebra to the 2nd lumbar vertebra.
Since this segment overlaps morphologically with the neural afferent segments of the gastrointestinal tract, acupuncture at this point can adjust gastrointestinal function. [9]
Acupuncture in the midsection can enhance gastric peristalsis, open the pylorus, increase bowel sounds, and enhance jejunal peristalsis [3].
Modern research shows that acupuncture at Zhongwan point has an adjustment effect on gastrointestinal function and can enhance gastric motility in healthy people, which is manifested by an open pylorus and a slight increase in the lower edge of the stomach. It is reported that after acupuncture in the midsection, the jejunal mucosal folds become deeper and denser, and the jejunal motility is enhanced, especially in the upper segment. Acupuncture at Zhongwan and Zusanli points in patients with gastric cancer can increase gastric acid secretion. Electroacupuncture at points such as the Zhongwan and other areas of animals, weak stimulation promotes gastric movement, while strong stimulation inhibits gastric movement. The former enhances gastric electricity, while the latter suppresses gastric electricity. [7] 17.2 Effect on lung function
Acupuncture in Zhongwan can increase resting ventilation, oxygen consumption and maximum ventilation [9]. 17.3 Effects on blood
Acupuncture in the Zhongwan can significantly increase white blood cells, and the proportion of neutrophils also increases accordingly [9]. It also has the same effect on patients with hypersplenism and leukopenia [9]. 17.4 Effects on the immune function of the body
The "Zhongwan" of the mice was moxibustion once every other day and three times a day. The phagocytic activity of liver, spleen and peritoneal macrophages were measured respectively. The results found that , the activity of phagocytes in both the moxibustion group and the control group was enhanced to a certain extent, and the activity of liver and peritoneal macrophages was the most significant (P<0.05). Another person used mice inoculated with S180 sarcoma as a model and moxibustion "Zhongwan" with small moxa sticks. When observing the inhibitory effect of moxibustion on tumors, they found that moxibustion can inhibit the growth of tumors in cancer mice and increase the plasma cAMP/ The cGMP value enhances the toxic activity of spleen natural killer cells (NK cells), the PHA-induced transformation function of spleen lymphocytes, and the ability of spleen lymphocytes to respond to plaque-forming cells (PFC) induced by sheep red blood cells (SR BC). [9]
Moxibustion in the Zhongwan showed enhanced phagocytosis of mononuclear giant cells in mice [3]. 17.5 Effect on bladder tension
Acupuncture at Zhongwan point can adjust bladder tension [7]. 17.6 Treat biliary colic
Apply antispasmodic and analgesic ointment to the Zhongwan point. Take 10g of Angelica dahurica and 15g of Zanthoxylum bungeanum, grind them into fine powder, 20 each of leeks and scallions, and 50g of neem seeds, mash them into mud. Use 50ml of white vinegar to mix the medicine into a paste, and stick it on the Zhongwan point. Change the paste once every 24 hours. , stick it 2 to 4 times in a row. 17.7 Relieving pyloric spasm
It is reported that after acupressure on the epigastrium, gastric peristalsis was found to be enhanced under 17.8 Effect on the peristalsis of the small intestine
Acupuncture at the Zhongwan point can promote the peristalsis of the small intestine, especially the jejunum.
