Root distribution characters have special ecological meaning as it reflected the utilizations of trees to the environments. Even-aged stands ofRobinia pseudoacacia on slope lands facing south and north were selected as sampling plots for root distribution investigation. Investigatiing results showed that indicated that on all sites, root biomass decreased with depth, and the distribution depth of fine root was deeper than that of coarser root. The results of variance analysis indicated that there were great differences in root biomass among different diameter classes, and coarser root was the main sources of variance, and the root biomass, especially fine root (?<3mm) biomass on northern exposition sites was bigger than that on southern exposition sites. Analysis of the vertical root distribution parameters, root extinction coefficient, β indicated that the value of β on northern exposition was more than 0.982, while the value of β on southern exposition was less than 0.982, which indicated that the vertical root distribution depth ofRobinia pseudoacacia on southern exposition was deeper than that on southern exposition. And the distribution depth of fine roots (Φ<1mm) was deeper than that of thicker roots(Φ<3mm), which was in favor of the uptake of water and nutrients from deeper layers, helped the trees to adapt the arid environment, and promoted the growth of the upper parts of the tree.

Methods Sixty-two patients with herpes zoster were randomly divided into two groups according to attendance number, 32 in acupuncture group and 30 in western medicine group. The patients in the acupuncture group were treated by acupuncture at the nidus-related nerve segments Jiaji (夹脊 EX-B2) in combination with direct moxibustion with fine-strip moxa, while the patients in the western medicine group were treated by oral valaciclovir hydrochloride, vitamin B1, vitamin B12. The times of response, incrustation and decrustation were observed respectively, and pain relief degree of the two groups were compared. Results The response time, incrustation time and decrustation time of the acupuncture group were all less than those of the western medicine group [(1.74±0.43) days vs (3.86±0.58) days, (2.03±0.52) days vs (5.46±0.65) days, (5.14±0.33) days vs (8.34±0.59) days, all P〈O.05]. The pain relief degree (VAS score), and pain duration in the acupuncture group were all higher obviously than those of the western medicine group [(10.41±12.1) vs (15.63±11.39), (4.78±0.45) days vs (8.12±0.63) days, all P〈O.05]. The total effective rate of the acupuncture group was 96.9% (31/32)and that of the western medicine group was 90% (27/30), thus the therapeutic effect of acupuncture group was better than that of western medicine group (P〈0.05). Conclusion The therapeutic effect of acupuncture combined with direct moxibustion with fine-strip moxa is remarkable. It can effectively control the development of herpes zoster, alleviate pain and shorten therapy periods. It is worthy to be promoted and applied.展开更多

Methods: Sixty-one patients were randomly divided into a Back-Shu acupoint group, a acupuncture-moxibustion group and a acupuncture group. All the three groups were treated twice a week, 10 times made up a treatment course. The therapeutic effect was evaluated after three courses of treatment. Results and conclusion: The control and marked effective rate were significantly higher in the Back-Shu acupoint group and acupuncture-moxibustion groups than in the acupuncture group (P〈0.05). They were slightly higher in the acupuncture-moxibustion group than in the Back-Shu acupoint group, but there was no statistically significant difference. The results indicated that the Back-Shu acupoints have a good therapeutic effect in treating asthma.展开更多

The amplitude of low frequency fluctuation(ALFF) analyses were conducted on the data of location phase, structure phase, resting state before acupuncture/moxibustion, working state during acupuncture/moxibustion and resting state after acupuncture/moxibustion using Data Processing Assistant for Resting-State fMRI(DPARSF) software.Results: Acupuncture and moxibustion produced significant differences in functional brain response. The working state during acupuncture/moxibustion mainly decreased ALFF values in the right supramarginal gyrus, right superior parietal lobule, right frontal gyrus, upper right occipital lobe, right precuneus and right cingulate gyrus. At the same time, it increased ALFF values in the left cerebellum, right caudate nucleus, right cerebellum and left inferior gyrus. The differences during the resting state after acupuncture/moxibustion were significantly smaller than the working state in intensity and size. It mainly resulted in decrease in ALFF values in the right postcentral gyrus and right supramarginal gyrus and increase in ALFF values in the left precuneus, orbital part of inferior frontal gyrus and right cerebellar peduncles.Conclusion: Needling and moxibustion at Zusanli(ST 36) can produce significant differences in immediate functional brain response.展开更多

Methods: A total of 94 cases with localized neurodermatitis were randomly divided into two groups by their visit order, 47 cases in each group. The cases in the treatment group were treated by bleeding method with a plum blossom needle, cupping method and moxibustion. The cases in the control group were treated by subcutaneous injection of Triamcinolone Acetonide Acetate Injection. Results: After treatment, the curative rate and total effective rate were respectively 80.9% and 100% in the treatment group and were 48.9% and 87.2% in the control group. The differences in the curative rate and total effective rate between the two groups were statistically significant (P〈0.01, P〈0.05). Conclusion; Bleeding method by a plum blossom needle, in combination with cupping method and moxibustion, is an effective therapy for localized neurodermatitis.展开更多
