According to the "International Standard of Chinese Head Acupoints" 207 patientssuffering from stroke were treated by needling along the anterior and posterior obligue lines of vertex-temporal, and the line 1 and line 2 lateral to vertex. The markedly effective rate accounted for73. 43% of the total, and the overall effective rate represented 89. 86%. After the treatment somesymptoms as hemiplegia, lingual dysfunction, facial and tongue paralysis were obviously improved (P【 0. 01 ). The therapeutic effect of head acupuncture was obviously better than that of Westernmedicine(P【0.01). Comparison of therapeutic effects made among needling along different lines andbetween those applied on the intact and affected sides of the body showed that they were all effectivein improving the symptoms, but there was no significant difference(P【0. 05)
