刺络法对颈椎病细胞间粘附分子-1的影响

Study of the Influence of Pricking Bloodletting Method on Intracellular Adhesion Molecule-1 in the Treatment of Cervical Spondylosis

目的观察刺络法对颈椎病细胞间粘附分子-1的影响。方法将140例颈椎病患者随机分为电针组60例、刺络组60例和对照组20例。于治疗前及疗程结束后各取空腹肘静脉血,检测ICAM-1。结果电针组治疗后ICAM-1值与刺络组比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);刺络组治愈率(61.7%)高于电针组(13.3%),两者比较差异有统计学上意义(P<0.01);治疗前后两组的疼痛积分以刺络组降低明显(P<0.01)。结论刺络组能更好地降低ICAM-1值,为治疗颈椎病的一种有效方法。

Objective To investigate the effect of pricking bloodletting method on intracellular adhesion molecule-1 （ICAM-1） in the treatment of cervical spondylosis. Methods One hundred and forty patients with cervical spondylosis were randomly allocated to an electroacupuncture group of 60 cases, a pricking bloodletting group of 60 cases and a control group of 20 cases. Fasting blood samples were taken from a cubital vein before and after treatment to measure ICAM-1. Results There was statistically significant difference in ICAM-1 scores between the pricking bloodletting group and the electroacupuncture group （P〈0.05）. The cure rate was higher in the pricking bloodletting group （61.7%） than in the electroacupuncture group （13.3%）; there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups （P〈0.01）. The pain score decreased more in the pricking bloodletting group after treatment （P〈 0.01）. Conclusion Pricking bloodletting method is an effective treatment for cervical spondylosis. It can better reduce ICAM-1.
