While the supplemen-tary points were Jiquan (HT 1 ), Xiaohai (SI 8), Huantiao (GB 30), Yinmen (BL 37), Sanyinjiao(SP 6), and Taixi (KI 3). It was found that the radical cure rate in the group treated with opposingneedling was 57%, while that in the group with non-opposipg needling was 34%. The difference oftherapeutic effects between the two groups was of statistical significance (P【0.01 ). It indicates thatopposing needling is superior to non-opposing needling in elevating cure rates and reducing sequelae.展开更多

Methods Atotal of 60 migraine patients with the symptom of hyperactivity of liver yang who met the inclusive criteria were randomly divided into a opposing needling group (group A) and a routine acupuncture group (group B) by using SPSS 15.0 software according to the registration order with 30 patients in each group. Patients in group A were treated with opposing needling. Taich6ng (太冲 LR 3), Zhongzhu (中渚 TE 3), ZOlfnqi (足临泣 GB 41) and QiOxu (丘墟 GB 40) in the uninjured side were selected. After deqi, reducing method was used. Then Taixi (太溪 KI 3) in the uninjured side was selected. After deqi, rein forcing method was used. Needles were retained for 30 rain. Patients in group B were treated with routine acupuncture. Local Ash point, Sishncong ( 四神聪EX-HN1), Yifeng (翳风 TE 17), Fengchi (风池 GB 20), Sizhukong (丝竹空 TE 23), Shuaigu (率谷GB 8), Hegu (合谷 LI 4) and LiEque (列缺 LU 7) were selected. After puncturing, reducing method was used routinely and needles were retained for 30 rain. After 2 weeks treatment, migraine specific quality of life questionnaire (MSQ), visual analogue scale (VAS) and nitric oxide (NO) level in plasma of patients in two groups were observed. Results After treatment, the MSQ, VAS and NO of two groups were significantly improved compared with those before treatment. After treatment, score of MSQ functional limitation was 73.41±10.22 in group A and 60.95 ± 10.15 in group B; the score of MSQ dysfunction was 86.11 ±8.22 in group A and 75.45±8.34 in group B; score of MSQ emotion was 80.51±10.16 in group A and 75.01± 10.20 in group B. The improvements of group A were superior to those of group B, and the differences were all statistically significant (all P〈0.05). After treatment, the VAS score was 0.93 ± 1.25 in group A and 2.17± 1.70 in group B. The improvement of group A was superior to that of group B, and the difference was statistically significant (P〈0.05). After treatment, blood plasma NO level was (42.15 ± 16.15) μmol/L in group A and (62.76±15.17) μmol/L in group B. The improvement of group A was superior to that of group B, and the difference was statistically significant (P〈0.05). Overall response rate was 86.7% (26/30) in group A and 53.3% (16/30) in group B, and the difference between two groups was statistically significant (P〈0.05). Conclusion Opposing needling is an effective method for the treatment of migraine with the symptom of hyperactivity of liver yong. Its mechanism is to regulate the generation of NO in migraine patients, and improve the relaxation and contraction of cerebral vascular smooth muscle, so as to adjust the cerebral circulation.展开更多
