This course it will be available in 2010 at Hospital St. Louis, Portugal.
Medical doctors from any country can apply for this course which it will have the collaboration from Meiji University of Integrative Medicine, Kyoto, Japan.
MORPHOLOGY
1) Morphological analysis of the dominant nerve on the acupuncture-moxibustion application site
2) Chemical-structural and pathological analysis of the change caused by the acupunctural-moxibustion stimuli
3) Identification of the canal of transmission and reception of acupuncture-moxibustion stimuli
4) Morphological study of the effect caused by the acupunctural-moxibustion stimuli on the internal secretion
5) Morphological study of the effect caused by the acupunctural-moxibustion stimuli on the autonomous nerves
6) Histological study of the effect caused by the acupunctural-moxibustion stimuli on the nerves and muscles
STUDY OF FUNCTIONALITY

4) Analysis of the effect of acupuncture-moxibustion
5) Correlation between the acupuncture-moxibustion sensation and stimuli
IMMUNOLOGY AND BIOCHEMISTRY
1) Functional distinction between the autonomous nervous system and the lymphocite
2) Acupuncture-moxibustion releases active physiological elements
3) Production of inflammatory cytokines by an acupuncture- moxibustion stimuli
4) Immune response adjustment by active physiological elements such as nervous peptides
5) Neuro-peptide receptor adjustment on immune cells by acupuncture-moxibustion stimuli
6) Analysis of the immune response regulation by acupuncture-moxibustion

9) Acupuncture-moxibustion treatment for post-surgery disconfort
10) Muscular tiredness analysis (i.e. orthopedic surgery) by MRI and the recovering process by acupuncture
11) Effects of acupuncture treatment on the peripheral nervous response
12) Renal functions effects according to the oriental medicine using a mineral bone densiometry machine
13) Quantification of the recovery of the locomotion system using acupucture
14) Nerves and the chemical mechanism of anaesthesia by acupuncture
15) Influence of the acupuncture stimuli and natural medication in the organism’s physiological response
16) Physiological meaning of the pathology according to oriental medicine
