Abstract

This study seeks to examine the inter-relationship of what William Garner Sutherland, DO called “The Tide,” the Cranial Rhythmic Impulse (CRI) palpated by practitioners of Osteopathy in the Cranial Field (OCF), and physiologic or pulmonary respiration. This study is different in that it proposes a mathematical analysis of these several phenomena to reconcile whether these are part of the same overarching natural wave or they are distinct. The pertinent medical literature is reviewed. The mathematics of Fourier analysis is briefly described. This study performed “reverse” Fourier analysis, that is, the combination of the various periodic signals into one periodic signal, across the range of normal physiological data values. Stochastic techniques were then applied to resolve these probabilistic data into 1 overarching periodic signal. From the mathematical analysis, it is not mathematically possible for “The Tide” to be in the range of the fundamental frequencies of the CRI, pulmonary respiration, and the Traube-Hering-Mayer oscillations that derive from it and are its harmonics. This mathematical analysis cannot be construed as negating the existence of “The Tide,” rather merely eliminates these fundamental frequencies as being “The Tide.” “The Tide” must be something else. More research is indicated.
检验“潮”,CRI和生理呼吸:数学分析
本研究旨在探讨威廉·加纳·萨瑟兰(William Garner Sutherland, DO)所称的“潮汐”、由颅野骨科医生(OCF)触诊的颅律动(CRI)与生理或肺呼吸之间的相互关系。这项研究的不同之处在于,它提出了对这几种现象的数学分析,以调和它们是同一总体自然波的一部分还是它们是不同的。本文回顾了相关的医学文献。简述了傅里叶分析的数学原理。本研究进行了“反向”傅立叶分析,即在正常生理数据值的范围内,将各个周期信号组合成一个周期信号。然后应用随机技术将这些概率数据分解为1个总体周期信号。从数学分析来看,“潮汐”在数学上不可能处于CRI,肺呼吸和由此产生的Traube-Hering-Mayer振荡的基本频率范围内,并且是它的谐波。这个数学分析不能被解释为否定“潮汐”的存在,而只是排除这些基本频率作为“潮汐”。“潮水”肯定是别的什么。需要进行更多的研究。
