Methods: A total of 90 eligible cases were randomly allocated into three groups, 30 cases in each group. Points Guanyuan(CV 4), bilateral Zusanli(ST 36) and Sanyinjiao(SP 6) were selected for patients in all three groups, with a different treatment duration: 15 min in group A, 30 min in group B and 45 min in group C. Then the clinical efficacy in each group was evaluated by pain symptom scoring. Results: As for the pain symptom scores, there were statistically significant intra-group differences between before and after treatment in three groups(all P〈0.05); coupled with statistically significant inter-group differences between group B and the other two groups(both P〈0.05). As for clinical efficacy, there were statistical differences between group B and the other two groups(both P〈0.05), indicating that 30 min of acupuncture is the optimal duration in the treatment of dysmenorrhea. Conclusion: With the same needling manipulation, 30 min of acupuncture treatment achieves a better efficacy for primary dysmenorrhea.展开更多

Method: There were 47 cases with menopause syndrome, which were divided into two groups, 32 cases in the acupuncture group, treated by acupuncture with main acupoins of Shenshu (BL 23), Zusanli (ST 36) and Sanyinjiao (SP 6), and 15 cases in the control group, treated by orally taking the Oryzanol. The Kupperman index of the two groups was observed before and after treatment for evaluating the therapeutic effect. The changes of blood-serum E2, T, FSH, LH of the 25 cases in the acupuncture group were tested by radioimmunoassay before and after the treatment. Results: The acupuncture therapy can relieve the clinical symptoms of menopause syndrome, and its therapeutic effect was better than Oryzanol. After being treated by acupuncture therapy, the content of blood-serum E2 obviously increased, while the contents of LH and T declined, and the FSH also had a tendency to lower, but it was not statistically significant. Conclusion: The therapeutic effect of acupuncture therapy for menopause is confirmed. The acupuncture therapy can improve the function of hypophysial-gonadal axis of the patient with menopause syndrome, which may be the main mechanism of the acupuncture therapy for treating menopause syndrome.展开更多
