Effect of pediatric tuina on hypothalamic metabolites in young rabbits using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry

Objective: To investigate the changes in the hypothalamic metabolites of lipopolysaccharide(LPS) febrile young rabbits after the treatment with pediatric tuina.Methods: A total of 30 young rabbits were randomly assigned into three groups: the normal group, the model group, and the tuina group. Both the model group and the tuina group were injected intravenously with LPS. “Six antipyretic manipulations”(pushing Tianmen, pushing Kangong, kneading Taiyang,kneading Erhougaogu, clearing Tianheshui, and pushing Jizhu) were administered 1 h after the LPS injection in the tuina group. The rectal temperatures of the young rabbits were monitored during the experiment to explore the antipyretic effect. Three hours after the injection, the content of interleukin-1β(IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-a, and prostaglandin E;(PGE;) in the serum was detected. In addition, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS) was used for the hypothalamus metabolomics.Results: Compared with the model group, the rectal temperature of the tuina group was decreased at 2 h and 3 h after the LPS injection(P =.04, P =.03, respectively), and the content of IL-1β, TNF-a, and PGE2was decreased(P =.03, P =.003, and P =.008, respectively). The metabolomics results showed that there were 23 potential biomarkers after the tuina intervention, enriching 27 pathways. Lipid metabolites,especially glycerophospholipids, were a majority of the altered metabolites. The primary metabolic pathways affected by tuina included the arachidonic acid metabolism, the GABAergic synapse, D-glutamine and D-glutamate metabolism, and the glutamatergic synapse.Conclusion: Pediatric tuina reduced the temperature of the febrile rabbits and downregulated the expression of IL-1β, TNF-a, and PGE2, and the antipyretic mechanism may be related to changes in metabolites and metabolic pathways in the hypothalamus.

Traditional Chinese medicine ointment combined with tuina therapy in treatment of pain and swelling after total knee arthroplasty

BACKGROUND The most effective treatment for knee joint pain is total knee arthroplasty(TKA),but the risk of pain and swelling in patients after surgery is high.Ice application,ankle pump exercise and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory painkillers are the primary clinical treatments after surgery.However,long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory pain relievers can easily cause gastrointestinal damage.Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)ointments and tuina therapy integrate TCM and manipulation,which effectively promotes the penetration of TCM into the skin lesions,improves local blood circulation and inflammatory reaction and has good long-term effects on patients.AIM To evaluate the efficacy of TCM ointment combined with tuina therapy in the treatment of pain and swelling after TKA.METHODS The randomized controlled clinical trial enrolled 80 patients who underwent TKA via the same procedure.The patients were randomly divided among the treatment group(n=40)and the control group(n=40).The control group was given an analgesia pump in addition to oral painkillers as the postoperative intervention.The treatment group received TCM ointment with tuina therapy in addition to the analgesia pump and oral painkillers in the postoperative period.The following variables were recorded 3 d before surgery and 3 d,7 d and 14 d after surgery:Visual analogue scale(VAS)score;skin temperature;circumferences at 15 cm above and below the patella;maximum active knee flexion angle;and the knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome score(KOOS).RESULTS After treatment,VAS was significantly lower in the treatment group than the control group at 7 d(t=7.536,P<0.001)and 14 d(t=8.563,P<0.001).The skin temperature of participants in the treatment group was significantly lower than that in the control group at 7 d(t=2.968,P=0.004)and 14 d(t=4.423,P<0.001).The circumference values of the two positions in the treatment group were lower than those in the control group at 7 d[t=2.315,P=0.023(above);t=2.121,P=0.037(below)]and 14 d[t=2.374,P=0.020(above);t=2.095,P=0.039(below)].After 14 d of treatment,the maximum active knee flexion angle and KOOS of the two groups were significantly improved but were significantly higher in the treatment group(P<0.05 for both).CONCLUSION TCM ointment and tuina therapy have significant advantages over standard care in the treatment of pain and swelling after TKA.This additional treatment may improve knee function but additional studies are needed to confirm our observations.

Tuina for treatment of atopic eczema in children under 14 years: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials

Objective:Due to a lack of available effective treatments for atopic eczema (AE),non-pharmaceutical therapy such as Tuina has been frequently sought after as an alternative treatment.We evaluated the benefits and harms of Tuina for children with AE under 14 years of age.Methods:We searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on Tuina in seven Chinese and English databases from their inception to June 2018.We included children under 14 years of age with AE received Tuina alone or combined with conventional medicine.Two authors independently extracted data and used the Cochrane 'Risk of bias' tool to assess the methodological quality.Effects were presented as relative risk with 95% confidence interval using RevMan 5.3.Data not suitable for statistical pooling were synthesized qualitatively.Results:Nine RCTs involving 1246 children with AE were included.The trials were at unclear or high risk of bias.Tuina manipulation in each trial was different.Compared to usual care,three trials showed greater effects of Tuina alone or combined with usual care for global symptoms and signs improvement,such as itching,and skin lesions.Four trials showed that Tuina had >50% improvement in symptoms and signs.Due to clinical heterogeneity,meta-analysis was not possible.At follow-up of between 4 weeks and 6 months,five trials of Tuina alone or Tuina combined with usual care showed lower rates of relapse compared to usual care alone.Four trials reported no occurrence of severe adverse events.Conclusions:Limited evidence demonstrates that Tuina may improve symptoms and signs of AE and reduce relapse rate in children <14 yrs with AE.Tuina is generally acceptable in these trials.Further well-designed RCTs are warranted to confirm these benefits and to explore safety further.

Randomized controlled study of Tuina in the treatment of insomnia:A Meta-analysis

Objective:To find out the clinical randomized controlled trials of Tuina in the treatment of insomnia,and to incorporate it into the research results of this subject for meta-analysis.While comparing the clinical effects,we can compare the literature and research related to Tuina treatment of insomnia and other treatments of insomnia,and summarize its characteristics and advantages.Methods:Relevant searches were performed on CNKI,VIP,CBMdisc,WanFang,Embase,Cochrance,PubMed,etc.Find out the effects of related massage therapy on the treatment of insomnia.Clinical Randomized Controlled Medical Research Clinical Trials(RCT).According to the inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria,the literature was screened,and then the included literature was extracted as data after screening.RevMan5.3 software was used to integrate and analyze the data.Results:19 randomized controlled trials that met the criteria were classified as studies,with a total of 1625 patients.The results of Meta-analysis showed that the total effective rate of massage for insomnia(OR=4.20,95%CI:3.00-5.88,P<0.00001),suggesting that the clinical efficacy of Tuina for insomnia is better than traditional Chinese medicine,western medicine,ear point treatment and acupuncture treatment.The difference in experimental effects was statistically significant,and no adverse reactions were found.Conclusion:The use of Tuina methods combined with different types of massage treatments to treat insomnia has a good therapeutic effect and no serious adverse events occurred.However,due to the limitations of this study,more large-sample,multi-center,in-depth clinical studies are needed to provide more reliable evidence-based evidence for the clinic,in order to better serve the development of guidelines.

Protective mechanisms of Tuina therapy against lipopolysaccharide-induced fever in young rabbits based on untargeted metabolomics analysis

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of Tuina on the plasma metabolites of lipopolysaccharide-induced febrile in infant rabbits.METHODS:Twenty-four infant New Zealand rabbits were selected and randomly divided into three groups:saline,model,and Tuina.The fever model was established by injecting LPS intravenously through the ear margin vein in the model group and Tuina group,respectively.The modeling was considered successful when the anal temperature increased by 0.5℃or above within 1 h.In the Tuina group,six Tuina techniques(i.e.,opening Tianmen/the heaven gate,pushing Kangong/the superciliary arch,kneading Taiyang and the prominent bone behind the ears,clearing Tianheshui,spine pinching)that alleviate fever were performed on the young rabbits 1 h after the modeling,whereas the model and saline groups were not given Tuina treatment,with the real-time anal temperature monitored during the experiment.The plasma was taken 3 h after the modeling for liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS)untargeted metabolomics study.RESULTS:Our results showed a fever-reducing effects of Tuina therapy on lipopolysaccharide-induced fever in young rabbits,as indicated by a significantly lower anal temperature,maximum rise in body temperature,and body response index at 2 and 3 h after modeling in the Tuina group compared to the model group,with reductions in the PGE2 expression observed in the blood and hypothalamus.The differential metabolites including riboflavin,nicotinamide N-oxide,porphobilinogen,5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid,gamma-aminobutyric acid,and lysoPC(16:1(9Z)/0:0)were found following the Tuina intervention.Tuina primarily involves glycine-serinethreonine,arginine-proline,porphyrin-chlorophyll,pyrimidine,primary bile acid biosynthesis,and cyanoamino acid metabolic pathways.CONCLUSION:Tuina therapy has proven to be effective in reducing body temperature and down-regulating PGE2 expression in LPS-induced febrile young rabbits,with its mechanism of fever-reducing action possibly associated with the changes in plasma metabolites and metabolic pathways.

Effect of Tuina along“bladder meridian”alleviating intervertebral disc degeneration by regulating the transforming growth factor-β1/Smad signaling pathway in a rabbit model

OBJECTIVE:The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effects of Tuina(a traditional Chinese massage therapy)on intervertebral disc(IVD)degeneration and the regulatory mechanisms of the transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1)/small mothers against decapentaplegic(Smad)signaling pathway.METHODS:Thirty New Zealand white rabbits were randomized into five groups:the control group,model group,model+Tuina group(Tuina group),model+TGF-β1 group(TGF-β1 group),and model+TGF-β1 inhibitor SB431542 group(SB431542 group).The model was established by posterolateral annulus fibrosus puncturing(AFP).Recombinant TGF-β1 and inhibitor SB431542 was injected into the TGF-β1 group and SB431542 group with a microsyringe,respectively.The rabbits in the Tuina group received Tuina treatment along the bladder meridian for 4 weeks.Magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)was performed on rabbits before AFP and after 4 weeks of intervention.Lumbar IVDs(L2-L3 to L4-L5)were harvested after intervention.Histopathological changes in the IVDs were measured by hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining.Type I collagen was analyzed by immunohistochemistry detection.The expression level of matrix metalloproteinase-3(MMP3)was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Cell apoptosis was evaluated by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferasemediated nick end labeling and Western blotting.Realtime polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting were used to analyze the expression of TGF-β1 and Smad2/3/4 and a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 5.RESULTS:Posterolateral AFP induced IVD degeneration in rabbits with histopathological damage and noticeable changes in MRI images.Tuina alleviated histopathological changes and reversed the expression of extracellular matrix degeneration-related molecules and apoptosis-related proteins.Furthermore,AFP induced the activation of TGF-β1 and Smad2/3/4,whereas Tuina therapy markedly reduced the protein expression of Smad2/3 and the gene expression of TGF-β1 and Smad2/3/4.Additionally,the TGF-β1/Smad signaling pathway was activated in the TGF-β1 group,while the TGF-β1/Smad signaling pathway was inhibited in the SB431542 group.CONCLUSION:Posterolateral AFP induced disc degeneration as determined by MRI assessment and histological analysis.Tuina alleviated disc degeneration,possibly by inhibiting the fibrotic response mediated by the TGF-β1/Smad pathway,thus alleviating extracellular matrix degeneration and reducing cell apoptosis.

Chinese Tuina remodels the synaptic structure in neuropathic pain rats by downregulating the expression of N-methyl D-aspartate receptor subtype 2B and postsynaptic density protein-95 in the spinal cord dorsal horn

OBJECTIVE:To investigate whether the Chinese massage system,Tuina,exerts analgesic effects in a rat model of chronic constriction injury(CCI)by remodeling the synaptic structure in the spinal cord dorsal horn(SCDH).METHODS:Sixty-nine male Sprague–Dawley rats were randomly and evenly divided into the normal group,sham group,CCI group,CCI+Tuina group,CCI+MK-801[an N-methyl D-aspartate receptor subtype 2B(NR2B)antagonist]group,and CCI+MK-801+Tuina group.The neuropathic pain model was established using CCI with right sciatic nerve ligation.Tuina was administered 4 d after CCI surgery,using pressing manipulation for 10 min,once daily.Motor function was observed with the inclined plate test,and pain behaviors were observed by the Von Frey test and acetone spray test.At 19 d after surgery,the L3-L5 spinal cord segments were removed.Glutamate,interleukin 1β(IL-1β),and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The protein expression levels of NR2B and postsynaptic density protein-95(PSD-95)were detected by Western blot,and the synaptic structure was observed by transmission electron microscopy(TEM).RESULTS:CCI reduced motor function and caused mechanical and cold allodynia in rats,increased glutamate concentration and TNF-αand IL-1βlevels,and increased expression of synapse-related proteins NR2B and PSD-95 in the SCDH.TEM revealed that the synaptic structure of SCDH neurons was altered.Most of these disease-induced changes were reversed by Tuina and intrathecal injection of MK-801(P<0.05 or<0.01).For the majority of experiments,no significant differences were found between the CCI+MK-801 and CCI+MK-801+Tuina groups.CONCLUSIONS:Chinese Tuina can alleviate pain by remodeling the synaptic structure,and NR2B and PSD-95 receptors in the SCDH may be among its targets.
