The incidence of positive REPP test results at the shin and shinzo points for subjects with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) were extremely high, and positive test results for patients with old myocardial infarction (OMI) and angina pectoris (AP) were also significant. There was no significant difference in the incidence rates of REPP at the shin and shinzo points between the OMI and AP groups. High incidence of positive REPP test results at the lung and heart III (shinyu) points occurred only in the AMI group, and this was significantly high when compared with the control group.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/clc.4960160509","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,2,4]],"date-time":"2009-02-04T09:09:55Z","timestamp":1233738595000},"page":"415-419","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":42,"title":["Characteristics of reactive electropermeable points on the auricles of coronary heart disease patients\u2013K.
