However, some doctor prefers healthy-side needling with quite satisfactory results. We study and review the treatment of apoplexy by healthy-side needling to further improve its therapeutic effects.展开更多

Here the authors used Tongxinluo capsule (通心络胶囊, TXLC) for replenishing qi, removing stasis and dredging collateral to treat qi deficiency-blood stasis type of ACI, and observed the change of plasma endothelin (ET), calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and nitrogen oxide (NO), aiming at exploring the effect of TXLC on vascular endothelial function and neurotransmitter.展开更多

Methods: A multi-centered, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial in 304 patients was conducted by dividing them into 3 groups, who received respectively SGYY (n = 102), placebo (n = 101) and Suoyang Bushen capsule (锁阳补肾胶囊, SYBS, n = 101), 1.0g taken three times a day for 4 weeks. Besides, 205 patients were arranged in an open-label study and treated with SGYY 1.0 g taken three times a day for 4 weeks. The total effective rate, total remarkably effective rate, erection recovery rate tested by penis hardness test ring, time taken for improving erection a-mong groups, as well as therapeutic effect between psychogenic ED group and mild arteriogenic ED group were compared. Adverse reactions related to SGYY were recorded. And a 3-month follow-up study was conducted on 105 cured patients. Results: The trial was completed in 500 patients. The total effective rate and total remarkably effective rate in the SGYY treated double-blinded group were 88. 0% and 64. 0% respectively, and those in the open-label group 90. 5% and 65. 0% , respectively, all significantly higher than those in the placebo (21.0%, 6. 0% ) and SYBS groups (60. 0% , 29.0%), P<0.01. At the same time, the e-rection recovery rate and improving time in SGYY group were significantly better than those in other groups ( P<0. 01). No adverse reactions related to SGYY were found. The successful rate of potency to have intercourse within 3 months was over 80% (100 patients out of the 105 cured patients). Conclusion: SGYY was an effective and safe treatment for patients with psychogenic and mild arteriogenic ED of Gan stagnation and Shen deficiency Syndrome type with or without blood stasis, especially for psychogenic ED patients.展开更多

Susceptible and healthy children of the same age were used as controls. As a result, the therapeutic effect of the treatment group is significantly better than that of the controls, with all of the immunologic indexes being approximately normal when the patients were reexamined 3 and 6 months after the massage. Statistically, the difference was significant (P【0.01). Massage has been proved very helpful in improving the general constitution, enhancing the immune functions, preventing and treating the condition, and in health care as well.展开更多

Methods: The 100 cases were randomly divided into a control group of 45 cases treated with retention enema of the enterosoluble tablet sulfasalazine once every evening and a treatment group of 55 cases treated with retention enema of the decoction for clearing away heat, expelling dampness, promoting blood circulation and healing ulcer once every evening. The patients in both groups orally took Chinese drug for basic treatment for 30 days as a course. After treatment, the clinical therapeutic effects in the 2 groups were compared and changed symptoms in intestinal mucosa were observed under endoscope. Results: The total effective rate of treatment group was better in relieving symptoms of TCM syndrome (90.9%) and intestinal mucosa (83.3%) than that of control group (68.9%, 56.3%) (P〈0.01 or P〈0.05). Conclusion: With good therapeutic effect on ulcerative colitis, Qinghua Huoxue Lianyang therapy (clearing away heat, expelling dampness, promoting blood circulation and healing ulcer) can obviously repair intestinal mucosa.展开更多
文摘Acupuncture is effective for the treatment of apoplectic hemiplegia, and the acupoint on the paralytic side is often selected for acupuncture. However, some doctor prefers healthy-side needling with quite satisfactory results. We study and review the treatment of apoplexy by healthy-side needling to further improve its therapeutic effects.
文摘Research of TCM shows that the chief pathological basis of acute cerebral infarction (ACI) is "blood stasis obstructing collateral".
