L\u2019action possible de ces points sera analys\u00e9e \u00e0 la lumi\u00e8re des th\u00e9ories scientifiques actuelles expliquant le vieillissement physiologique.&nbsp;<em>R\u00e9sultats<\/em>. L\u2019acupuncture et techniques associ\u00e9es pourraient ralentir le vieillissement de l\u2019organisme essentiellement par la mise en place de protections (comme la superoxyde dismutase, le glutathion peroxydase, etc.), vis-\u00e0-vis du stress oxydant et de la production des radicaux libres mais aussi par le syst\u00e8me de protection des prot\u00e9ines de choc thermique (heat shock proteins HSP), ou par la possibilit\u00e9 d\u2019agir sur la glycation des prot\u00e9ines. Toutefois, d\u00e8s que l\u2019effet du vieillissement fait son \u0153uvre et que la maladie appara\u00eet sur les diff\u00e9rents syst\u00e8mes : nerveux central, immunitaire, cardio-vasculaire, pulmonaire, locomoteur, digestif, urinaire, etc.., de nombreuses \u00e9tudes d\u2019acupuncture exp\u00e9rimentale, mais aussi des essais comparatifs randomis\u00e9s, voire des m\u00e9ta-analyses ont montr\u00e9 encore l\u2019int\u00e9r\u00eat de l\u2019acupuncture et techniques associ\u00e9es comme on peut l\u2019observer ainsi dans la maladie d\u2019Alzheimer, dans l\u2019hypertension art\u00e9rielle ou la bronchopneumopathie obstructive. Dans ce cas clinique, l\u2019acupuncture et ses techniques associ\u00e9es ont donc sembl\u00e9 assurer une bonne qualit\u00e9 de vie \u00e0 cette femme de 92 ans, et cela sans effets ind\u00e9sirables.&nbsp;<em>Conclusion<\/em>.

About a clinical case<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">&nbsp;<strong>Summary.<\/strong>&nbsp;<em>Introduction<\/em>. \u00ab&nbsp;Some people live up to 100 years old. How can they have such longevity? (Chapter 54 of&nbsp;<em>Lingshu<\/em>). When it was written a few centuries before our era, the Chinese were already wondering about how to prolong life in good health. Is it possible to use acupuncture, electroacupuncture or moxibustion in order to extend longevity according to the precepts of chapter 54 of&nbsp;<em>Lingshu<\/em>&nbsp;(<em>tiannian<\/em>) by applying the means and knowledge of the 21st century?&nbsp;<em>Methods<\/em>. From a case study, a 92-year-old woman, followed for 27 years, will be assessed the so-called \u00ab&nbsp;longevity&nbsp;\u00bb points, chosen from among all those who, according to the&nbsp;<em>Bianque xinshu<\/em>, written by Dou Cai in 1146, but also other more modern authors, have the peculiarity of strengthening the human body by toning&nbsp;<em>qi&nbsp;<\/em>and&nbsp;<em>xue<\/em>. The possible action of these points will be analyzed in the light of current scientific theories explaining the physiological aging.&nbsp;<em>Results.<\/em>&nbsp;Acupuncture and associated techniques could slow the aging of the body mainly by the establishment of protections (such as superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, etc.), with respect to oxidative stress and the production of free radicals but also by the system of protection of heat shock proteins (HSP), or by the possibility of acting on the glycation of proteins. However, as soon as the effect of aging does its work and the disease appears on the various systems: central nervous, immune, cardiovascular, pulmonary, locomotor, digestive, urinary, etc., many studies of experimental acupuncture , but also randomized controlled trials, or even meta-analyzes have still shown the interest of acupuncture and associated techniques as can be observed in Alzheimer\u2019s disease, in arterial hypertension or obstructive pulmonary disease. In this clinical case, acupuncture and its associated techniques therefore seemed to ensure a good quality of life for this 92-year-old woman, without any undesirable effects.&nbsp;<em>Conclusion.<\/em>&nbsp;Before the onset of illness, acupuncture, electroacupuncture and moxibustion could potentially increase life expectancy in good health in combination with correct physical activity and appropriate dietary habits. Nevertheless, it will be necessary to nuance the scope of the potential effects of acupuncture and associated techniques and to make the difference between the points called \u00ab&nbsp;longevity&nbsp;\u00bb to use in prevention, the same points that will be used as soon as the natural defenses are exceeded.&nbsp;<strong>Keywords<\/strong>.
