Methods:Sixty-eight patients with primary dysmenorrhea were randomly divided into two groups, and 35 cases in the treatment group were treated by acupuncture combined with auricular point sticking, while 33 cases in the control group were only treated by acupuncture. The treatments for the patients in both groups began from one week before their menstruation and continued till the menstruation came. And the efficacy was observed after treatments of three consecutive menstrual cycles. Results:The total effective rate was 94.2% in the treatment group, versus 84.8% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion:Acupuncture combined with auricular point sticking treatment for primary dysmenorrhea is more effective than simple acupuncture.展开更多

Methods: A total of 210 cases treated in our community health center were randomized into an observation group and a control group by their visit sequence numbers, 105 cases in each group. Cases in the observation group were treated with foot bath and massage plus auricular point sticking, whereas cases in the control group were treated with auricular point sticking alone. After four courses of treatment, the therapeutic efficacies were evaluated. In addition, the sleep quality was also assessed using the Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI). Results: The total effective rate in the observation group was 95.2%, versus 68.6% in the control group, showing a statistical significance(P<0.05). Conclusion: Combining foot bath and massage with auricular point sticking could obtain better effect for community senile insomnia than auricular point sticking alone.展开更多

Methods: A total of 128 cases from Zhejiang Economic and Trade Polytechnic were randomly allocated into an observation group and a control group. The 64 cases in the observation group were treated with auricular point sticking plus aerobic exercise, while the 64 cases in the control group were treated with auricular point sticking alone. The clinical efficacies in the two groups were compared after treatment. Results: The total effective rate in the observation group was 96.9%, versus 70.3% in the control group, showing a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).

Methods: Using randomized single-blind controlled clinical design, a total of 72 cases with cervical radiculopathy were randomly allocated into an observation group or a control group by the ratio of 1:1, 36 in each group. Cases in the observation group were treated with tuina combined with auricular point sticking, whereas cases in the control group were treated with tuina alone. Then the clinical effects in the two groups were observed and the cost of health economics was evaluated. Results: The drop-out, recovery, improvement and failure cases, recovery rate and total effective rate in the observation group were 1, 15, 20, 0, 42.9% and 100% respectively, versus 2, 6, 23, 5, 17.6% and 85.3% in the control group, showing significant differences in recovery rate and total effective rate(P<0.05). As for health economics, the cost-effect in the observation group was better than that in the control group. Conclusion: Compared with tuina alone, tuina combined with auricular point sticking can obtain better effect and lower cost in health economics for cervical radiculopathy.展开更多
