Methods Multi-center （3 First-Class hospitals） study was adopted, and the involved 3 hospitals did clinical observation according to the requirements of the project. The methods are as follows. All cases were randomized into treatment group and control group according to their sequence. QIǖXǖ（丘墟GB40） was selected in treatment group, while Tiānshū （天枢 ST25） was selected in control group. Both groups were performed electro acupuncture, and syndromes indexes of migraine and 5-HT were observed before and after treatment. All data were analyzed by statistic software SPSS11.5. Results There was significant difference of VAS margin between two groups in each center and the combined center （u= -3. 362, P=0. 001 ）. There was significant difference of therapeutic effect of 4-week treatment between two groups in each clinical center and the combined center. The therapeutic effect of 3-month treatment between two groups in No. 1 and No. 3 hospitals, showed significant difference, the treatment group was better; while that of No. 2 hospital had no obvious difference. The therapeutic effect of 6-month treatment between two groups in each center and the combined center had significant difference, the treatment group was better. Conclusion The therapy of electro acupuncture at QIǖXǖ（丘墟GB40） is effective for migraine.展开更多

Methods: A total of 107 cases of vascular headache patients were divided into treatment group (n=67) and control group (n=40). Bilateral Taiyang (EX-HN 5) and Jiaosun (TE 20) were pricked with a needle to let a little blood out, once every 4 days. Bilateral Fengmen (BL 12) and Ganshu (BL 18) were used for embedding catgut, once every 16 days. Patients of control group were ordered to take Rotunding, Oryzanol and Nimodipine, 3 times daily. Results: After 16 days’ treatment, of the 67 cases in treatment group, 26 were cured, 37 responded with improvement in their symptoms and 4 failed; while of the 40 cases in control group, 10 were cured, 19 responded with improvement in their symptoms and 11 failed. The total effective rate of treatment group was significantly superior to that of control group (P<0.01). In addition, the time of headache disappearance of treatment group was strikingly shorter than that of control group; while the duration of sleep of treatment group was strikingly longer than that of control group (P<0.01). Conclusion: The therapeutic effect of acupoint bloodletting plus acupoint embedding of catgut is superior to that of Western medicine in the treatment of vascular headache.展开更多

Combined use of these two acupoints can harmonize yin and yang, regulate qi and blood, and balance ascending or descending. This paper attempts to study the effects of Si Guan point on the vascular dilation and constriction in migraine patients from the perspective of its feature.展开更多

Methods： One hundred and fifty migraine patients were randomly allocated to an observation group （n=90） and a control group （n=60）. The observation group were treated by acupuncture plus auricular plaster therapy based on syndrome differentiation and the control group, by oral administration of Flunarizine. The curative effects were compared between the two groups. Results： The total efficacy rate was 94.4% in the observation group and higher than in the control group （73.3%）. The recovery rate was 87.8% in the observation group and higher than in the control group （55.0%）. There were significant differences between the two groups （both P〈0.01）. The curative effect was significantly better in the observation group than in the control group. Conclusion： Clinically, acupuncture plus auricular plaster therapy based on syndrome differentiation has a good effect on migraine.展开更多

Methods： Fifty patients with vascular headache were randomized into two groups, 25 cases in each. The treatment group received auricular sticking therapy with magnetic pearls, and the control group was treated by Flunarizine Hydrochloride, 30 d as a treatment session, and the results were measured after one treatment session. Result： The total effective rate was 92.0% in the treatment group while 60.0% in the control group, and the difference was significant （P〈0.01）. A marked decrease of blood pressure was detected in the treatment group （P〈0.05）. The mean velocity in middle cerebral artery and anterior cerebral artery both changed significantly （P〈0.01）. Conclusion： Auricular sticking therapy can significantly improve the condition of vascular headache, as well as reduce blood pressure and help cerebral blood flow.展开更多
