ECCA-TX-ACUPOINT-MAP-0001
Toxic Encephalopathy Acupuncture Point Mapping Atlas
SCF Neural Mapping Schema: Module 1 of Encephalopathy Types
Clinical use classification: Adjunctive supportive neuromodulation only. Toxic encephalopathy requires toxin identification, exposure removal, emergency stabilization, antidote/chelation/dialysis when indicated, and standard medical care.
The SCF neural mapping method follows the layered model: acupoint → peripheral nerve branch → dermatome/myotome → spinal or cranial entry → brainstem/hypothalamic/limbic/cortical node → autonomic, immune, motor, or neurovascular output. Evidence tiers are: A = direct mechanistic/tracing evidence, B = indirect neuroimaging or physiology, C = anatomy-based inference.

III. Primary Therapeutic Circuit Stack for Toxic Encephalopathy
SCF Role | Point Cluster | Primary Objective |
Connectomic Stabilizers | GV20, GV24, Yintang, GV26 | Arousal, cognition, delirium-pattern stabilization |
Neuroimmune Modulators | ST36, LI11, LI4 | Cytokine drift, glial activation, pain/inflammation coupling |
Autonomic Regulators | PC6, PC5, HT7, CV17 | Cardiovagal balance, nausea, anxiety, respiratory-autonomic control |
Gut–Liver–Toxin Axis | ST25, CV12, BL18, BL20 | Visceral-autonomic support during detoxification burden |
Renal–Fluid Axis | KI3, BL23 | Supportive renal-autonomic mapping, not a substitute for toxin clearance therapy |
Sensorimotor Recovery | GB34, BL40, GB20, BL10 | Vertigo, weakness, motor instability, cervico-brainstem regulation |
IV. Evidence-Controlled Interpretation
High-confidence anchors include ST36, ST25, and PC5–PC6, with ST36 linked to vagal-adrenal anti-inflammatory signaling, ST25 to spinal sympathetic gut modulation, and PC5–PC6 to median-afferent cardiopulmonary reflex circuitry. Moderate anchors include LI4, GV20, HT7, LV3, SP6, GB34, and BL40, which the SCF mapping model identifies as neuroimaging/physiology-supported or convergent evidence points. Remaining toxic-encephalopathy rows are atlas-level anatomical inferences based on nerve territory, dermatome, tissue depth, and likely circuit family, consistent with the SCF full-atlas construction rule.

Nausea / autonomic instability | Cardiovagal regulation | PC6, PC5, CV17 |
Neuroinflammatory drift | Anti-inflammatory neuromodulation | ST36, LI11, LI4 |
GI toxin burden | Gut–brain–visceral regulation | ST25, CV12, BL20 |

VI. Safety and Exclusion Notes
This atlas is not a standalone treatment protocol. In suspected toxic encephalopathy, urgent clinical priorities are exposure cessation, airway/breathing/circulation stabilization, toxin identification, poison-control consultation, antidote or chelation when indicated, seizure management, renal/hepatic support, and ICU-level care when needed. Acupuncture mapping may be considered only as adjunctive supportive care after medical stabilization and contraindication screening.
