摘要

To investigate and analyze the characteristics of Meridian Sinew (Jingjin) syndrome in patients with whiplash-associated disorders (WAD). From August 2010 to September 2011

313 WAD cases from New York and California states were collected. The survey mostly collects the information of “Sinew Knotted Points” and symptoms of four types of Meridian Sinew differentiation—Taiyang

Shaoyin

Shaoyang and Yangming. Among the cases which are on the average of medium injury level

the higher frequency of “Sinew Knotted Points” tenderness were found on Jianwaishu (SI 14)

Jianzhongshu (SI 15)

Tianchuang (SI 16)

C3-6 Spinous Process

Dazhui (GV 14)

Fengchi (GB 20)

Tianliao (SJ 15) and Tianding (LI 17). The most commonly presented symptoms were widespread spasm and tenderness in the neck (Taiyang)

difficulty in lateral flexion (Shaoyang)

problems of extension and flexion (Taiyang)

and stiffness and pain during neck movement (Yangming). Among the cases

237 cases (75.72%) were related to Taiyang Meridian Sinew syndrome

82 cases (26.20%) to Shaoyin syndrome and 175 (55.91%) and 176 (56.23%) cases to Shaoyang and Yangming syndrome respectively. The most of cases presented in a combination format. The syndrome distribution under Grade I

II and III reflected that more combination of the Meridian Sinew syndromes in the whiplash injury patients which is resulted from more severity of injury. It is practical to identify the location of abnormality through Meridian Sinew differentiation

considering both “Sinew Knotted Points” tenderness and corresponding symptoms

for the local neck symptoms of WAD.
