AB: ABSTRACT
Patients who experienced panic attacks, with or without avoidance, were
treated for two weeks with either training in controlled breathing or a
placebo treatment. Subsequently, both groups received a limited period of
conventional anxiety treatments, most commonly in vivo exposure. Patients
were subdivided into 'hyperventilators' and 'non-hyperventilators' on the
basis of the conventional provocation test. Observer ratings of anxiety
showed a greater improvement for the group that received breathing training,
but there was no evidence that 'hyperventilators' benefited more from
respiratory training than 'non-hyperventilators'. Self-report measures of
anxiety, avoidance, and depression/dysphoria showed no difference between
treatments. These findings suggest that training in controlled breathing is
not of specific benefit for those identified as 'hyperventilators' by the
provocation test, but that it may have a non-specific effect in the
treatment of patients with panic attacks. ABSTRACT.

AB: ABSTRACT
One hundred fifty-six myocardial infarction patients were randomly assigned
to either exercise plus relaxation and breathing therapy (treatment A, n =
76) or to exercise training only (treatment B, n = 80). Effects on exercise
testing showed a more pronounced training bradycardia and a remarkable
improvement in ST abnormalities in treatment A (p less than 0.005). A model
was developed to integrate the various exercise parameters into a single
measure for training benefit. Approximately half the patients showed a
training success, with a more positive and less negative outcome in
treatment A (p = 0.09). The odds for failure were 0.25 for treatment A and
0.51 for treatment B (odds ratio: 2.04; 95% confidence interval, 0.94 to
4.6). Thus the risk of failure was reduced by half when relaxation was added
to exercise training. These results indicate that exercise training is not
successful in all MI patients and that relaxation therapy enhances training
benefit. ABSTRACT.

AB: ABSTRACT
Twenty-seven normotensive, college-aged, female subjects were studied to
assess the effects of training in breathing techniques on blood pressure
during isometric contractions. Subjects were randomly and equally assigned
to one of three training groups: 1) a group that was taught to perform a
Valsalva maneuver during isometric efforts (VAL Group), 2) a group that was
instructed to avoid performing the Valsalva maneuver (NO-VAL Group), and 3)
a control group that was given no instructions (CONT Group). Prior to and
following three breathing technique training sessions, two blood pressure
measurements were made by amplified auscultation during 10 isometric
contractions of the quadriceps femoris muscle with the leg positioned at 65
degrees of knee flexion. Breathing patterns were recorded on an impedance
pneumograph. Data were submitted to a 2 X 2 X 3 (time X trial X group)
multivariate analysis of covariance using resting systolic and diastolic
blood pressures as covariates. A significant (p less than .05) time-x-group
interaction revealed posttraining blood pressure response to isometric
exercise had significantly decreased in the NO-VAL Group (163/120 vs 148/112
mm Hg), and had not significantly changed in the CONT Group (157/117 vs
153/117 mm Hg). These data illustrate that training to avoid the Valsalva
maneuver may help attenuate the pressor response observed during isometric
contractions and provide a means for safer patient exercise. ABSTRACT.

AB: ABSTRACT
Wallace first reported the changes in EEG during transcendental mediation 6
. Banquet 1 observed, on the basis of spectral analysis of the EEG, that the
mediation state was a unique state of consciousness, and separate from
wakefulness, drowsiness or sleep. The Qi Gong of China is not the same as
either transcendental mediation or the Yoga Gong. The EEG during Qi Gong
state is clearly different from those recorded during the resting state. The
changes in the EEG during the Qi Gong have not been reported previously. The
EEG alpha activity during the Qi Gong state occurs predominantly in the
anterior regions. The peak frequency of EEG alpha rhythm is slower than the
resting state. The change of EEG during Qi Gong between anterior and
posterior half is negative correlation. These changes are statistically
significant. ABSTRACT.

AB: ABSTRACT
In this study, the authors, by means of fluorescence spectrophotometry,
observed the variations of blood contents of monoamine neuro-transmitters
(5-hydroxytamine 5-HT; norepinephrine NE; dopamine DA) in 68 subjects before
and after adoption of Qigong exercises. A comparison of pre- and
post-exercise showed a general reduction in 5-HT, varying from 0.43 +/- 0.21
to 0.21 +/- 0.13 microgram/ml (P less than 0.001). Variations in NE and DA
tended to go up, NE being from 0.27 +/- 0.13 to 0.35 +/- 0.27 microgram/ml,
DA from 0.86 +/- 0.69 to 1.19 +/- 0.81 micrograms/ml (P less than 0.02).
Effects of Qigong exercises on different diseases: Subjects in each group
showed reduction in blood 5-HT content after they had practised Qigong
exercise. (1) Cardiovascular disease: 0.47 +/- 0.34 to 0.16 +/- 0.11
microgram/ml (n = 13); (2) gastric diseases: 0.37 +/- 0.19 to 0.22 +/- 0.13
microgram/ml (n = 20); (3) joint system diseases: 0.44 +/- 0.21 to 0.18 +/-
0.13 microgram/ml (n = 10); (4) respiratory system diseases: 0.40 +/- 0.22
to 0.22 +/- 0.12 microgram/ml (n = 8); (5) other diseases (neuroasthenia,
neurosis, etc.): 0.46 +/- 0.22 to 0.25 +/- 0.14 microgram/ml (n = 13). In
all these groups except the fourth group, variations in 5-HT content in
comparison with the pre-exercise values were respectively P less than 0.01,
less than 0.01, less than 0.05, less than 0.05. The difference was obvious.
The post-exercise blood content of DA in various groups rose up
remarkably.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) ABSTRACT.

AB: ABSTRACT
Psychophysiological observations, especially PETCO2 and EEG, during
relaxation training with deep-diaphragmatic breathing and mental imagery,
suggest that the addition of certain types of music "deepens" breathing and
quickens relaxation: PETCO2 "normalizes" with decreased respiration rate,
and EEG shows decreased average theta and increased alpha. The combined
psychophysiological indices suggest that music potentiates the hypometabolic
counterarousal state. And clients unanimously report that they enjoy it.

AB: ABSTRACT
Quasiformal reports of widespread use of music in counterarousal techniques
abound despite little evidence of its psychophysiological effects. Some
known effects are presented here, and they suggest, among other things, an
influence on hemispheric dominance, changes in autonomic nervous system
activity, and relaxation by paradoxical arousal patterns contrary to those
in cognitive function and anxiety. Hypothetical subcortical reflexes are
postulated as mediators. Different types of music and their effect are
described. Of particular relevance is that some forms of music have been
reliably shown to have a profound beneficial effect on breathing. ABSTRACT.

AB: ABSTRACT
By using the differential diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine to
determine the types of hypertension, using the diagnosis of western medicine
(WM) to determine the phases of hypertension, 61 inpatients of Liver Yang
exuberance type hypertension were randomly divided into Qigong group and WM
group. The patients in the Qigong group were treated with both Qigong and
antihypertensive drugs at low dosage, but those in the WM group were treated
with the drugs alone. Several laboratory tests concerning
sympathetico-adrenomedullary functions were conducted twice respectively at
1st and 9th week after hospitalization of the patients. The results
indicated that the Qigong group after treatment of 9 weeks had more cases
with normal sympathetico-adrenomedullary functions than it had before the
treatment, and that their urinary CA, E, NE decreased, MHPG-SO4 increased,
plasma cAMP and cGMP got down, but cAMP/cGMP ratio got up. It suggested that
Qigong could modulate the sympathetico-adrenomedullary functions of patients
with Liver Yang exuberance type hypertension. ABSTRACT.

AB: ABSTRACT
The role of hyperventilation in the aetiology of panic attacks is still
unclear. This paper briefly reviews the role of hyperventilation and
abnormal respiration to panic attacks and examines the experimental
evidence. Evidence has been found that physiological variables such as paCO2
and pH are involved in the aetiology of panic attacks and panic disorder but
the extent and the nature of the involvement of cognitive variables is
undetermined. Based on current evidence, there is a need to integrate
cognitive variables with the physiological framework proposed by the
hyperventilation theory. Until clear experimental evidence is produced about
the relationships between cognitive and physiological factors, the
applicability of hyperventilation in the aetiology and treatment of panic
attacks remains in question. ABSTRACT.

AB: ABSTRACT
The effects of two pranayama yoga breathing exercises on airway reactivity,
airway calibre, symptom scores, and medication use in patients with mild
asthma were assessed in a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled,
crossover trial. After baseline assessment over 1 week, 18 patients with
mild asthma practised slow deep breathing for 15 min twice a day for two
consecutive 2-week periods. During the active period, subjects were asked to
breathe through a Pink City lung (PCL) exerciser--a device which imposes
slowing of breathing and a 1:2 inspiration:expiration duration ratio
equivalent to pranayama breathing methods; during the control period,
subjects breathed through a matched placebo device. Mean forced expiratory
volume in 1 s (FEV1), peak expiratory flow rate, symptom score, and inhaler
use over the last 3 days of each treatment period were assessed in
comparison with the baseline assessment period; all improved more with the
PCL exerciser than with the placebo device, but the differences were not
significant. There was a statistically significant increase in the dose of
histamine needed to provoke a 20% reduction in FEV1 (PD20) during pranayama
breathing but not with the placebo device. The usefulness of controlled
ventilation exercises in the control of asthma should be further
investigated. ABSTRACT.

AB: ABSTRACT
This study assessed variations in reported attentional experience associated
with several stress management techniques (hypnosis, progressive relaxation,
deep abdominal breathing) and baseline (eyes closed) as a function of
hypnotic susceptibility. Three hundred nursing students experienced the
stress management conditions and afterward completed a self-report
inventory, the Dimensions of Attention Questionnaire (DAQ), in reference to
each condition. The DAQ quantifies 12 aspects of attentional experience in a
reliable and valid manner. The results demonstrated that progressive
relaxation, hypnosis, and deep abdominal breathing are characterized by
differences in reported attentional experience that are further moderated by
an individual's hypnotic susceptibility. The clinical implications of these
results are discussed. ABSTRACT.

AB: ABSTRACT
The regulated-breathing method of Azrin and Nunn (1974) appears to be one of
the most promising treatments of stuttering in adults. Their study, however,
has some methodological limitations. In particular no operational definition
of stuttering is provided, and all measures of stuttering are based on
self-report. The present study is an experimental evaluation of the
regulated-breathing method. Thirty-two subjects were randomly assigned
either to treatment or to a waiting-list control group. The treatment was
completed during one single session of 2-3 hours. Both frequency of
stuttering and rate of speech were measured before and after treatment, and
on follow-ups 2, 3 and 8 months later. The dependent variables were assessed
under conditions of both phrase reading and spontaneous speech. Both
obtrusive and unobtrusive measures of speech were recorded. At the 8 month
follow-up, stuttering in the treatment group was significantly less than in
the control group, and also significantly less than before treatment.

AB: ABSTRACT
Hyperventilation syndrome and panic disorder are both common, serious, and
easily treatable disorders. The similarity of their symptoms and physiology,
the demonstration of hyperventilation during spontaneous and
laboratory-induced panic episodes, provocation of panic-like symptoms in
some patients with panic disorder using hyperventilation, the importance of
psychologic factors in producing hyperventilation, and successful treatment
of panic disorder with breathing retraining all indicate a strong
association between these two conditions. About 50 percent of patients in
each group show evidence of both disorders. It is suggested that many
patients in each group show evidence of both disorders. It is suggested that
many patients with either diagnosis have the same disorder and share a
biologically and often genetically determined hypersensitivity of a central
"alarm" system. Panic and hyperventilation provoked by inappropriate
activation of this system are postulated to reinforce each other by a
positive feedback loop. Treatments directed at any part of this loop are
likely to be successful. Clinical implications of the link between these
conditions are discussed. ABSTRACT.

AB: ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of two different
relaxation techniques in the management of postoperative pain. The sample
consisted of 40 women between the ages of 21 and 65 years who were
undergoing elective cholecystectomy. Using an experimental design,
participants were randomly assigned to four groups: an experimental group
who received a taped recording of a rhythmic breathing exercise (RB); an
experimental group who received a taped recording of Benson's Relaxation
Technique (BRT); an attention-distraction control group (CA) who received a
taped recording of a history of the hospital; and a standard control (CB)
group who had only the routine perioperative care which all groups received.
Data were collected on postoperative sensation and distress at five time
points during the first 72 postoperative hours, number of doses of analgesic
medication during the same time period, and number of postoperative hospital
days. Data were analysed using multivariate and univariate analyses of
variance. The BRT group was significantly different from the CA group on a
combined sensation and distress factor (P = 0.011). No significant
differences were found among groups for doses of analgesics (P = 0.068) or
postoperative hospital days (P = 0.56). ABSTRACT.

AB: ABSTRACT
Body-oriented therapies as relaxation training and certain forms of
meditation are gaining popularity in the treatment and prevention of
psychosomatic disorders. In this paper, a new method of self-control called
self-regulation method (SRM), derived from autogenic training and Zen
meditation, is presented. The technique of SRM is introduced. Secondly,
physiological studies on SRM using skin temperature, galvanic skin response,
and cortical evoked potentials are presented. Thirdly, the results of
psychological tests conducted on SRM are presented. These
psycho-physiological studies suggest that SRM may elicit a state of 'relaxed
alertness'. Fourthly, clinical applications of SRM are discussed, and 3
cases are presented. Finally, SRM is discussed in relation to the psychology
and physiology of 'relaxed alertness'. ABSTRACT.

AB: ABSTRACT
The aforementioned stress reduction techniques can be useful for some
people, but not all individuals will benefit to the same degree with a
similar technique. Those who manifest severe stress symptoms, such as
ulcers, hypertension, and migraine headaches, are advised to seek a medical
evaluation before attempting relaxation or any other type of stress
reduction method. The relaxation skill most beneficial for an individual's
own needs might be best sought through a qualified therapist. Those who
desire reduction in general tension, or who wish a rejuvenation during the
workday, may well benefit from less controlled stress reduction techniques,
such as taped instructions, breathing, and imagery methods. A trained
therapist can provide the most appropriate relaxation method for an
individual's needs. We, as health care providers, can enlighten our patients
about methods which can aid them in dealing with anxiety and stress and thus
gain better control over the pace of their lives and ours. ABSTRACT.

AB: ABSTRACT
Pursed lips breathing (PLB) training is often used in the management of
patients with chronic obstructive lung disease (COLD). Previous clinical
studies have demonstrated that PLB improves arterial oxygen saturation
(SaO2) and CO2 removal as well as relieving dyspnea. Twelve hypoxemic
subjects with stable COLD were randomly assigned to either the pursed lips
(P) or control group consisting of general relaxation (R). The SaO2 was
monitored via ear oximetry, and respiratory rate and tidal volume were
monitored using a strain gage transducer and the minute volume was
calculated. The PLB was taught by an experienced instructor using the ear
oximeter as a monitoring display with a goal toward increasing SaO2. The
subject was taught general relaxation (Rlx) with the aid of pleasant music.
We compared PLB and Rlx treatments using an A-B-A crossover study design. In
both groups, PLB significantly improved SaO2 over baseline (p less than
0.001) whereas Rlx did not. We conclude that patients can learn to increase
their SaO2 by PLB using ear oximetry adjunctively. ABSTRACT.
