The observation group was given EA plus acupoint-injection therapy with Cobamamide. The control group was given oral administration of Diclofenac Sodium Sustained-release Tablets plus muscular injection of Cobamamide. After one-course treatment, the clinical effects were compared between the two groups. 〈br〉 Results:The total effective rate was 96.5%in the observation group and 91.2%in the control group, without a statistical significance in the difference between the two groups (P〉0.05). The curative rate was 57.9%in the observation group and 21.1% in the control group, with a statistical significance in the difference between the two groups (P〈0.05). In the follow-up on the fourth day after the treatment, the recurrence rate was 23.1%in the observation group and 47.9%in the control group, with statistical difference between the two groups (P〈0.05). 〈br〉 Conclusion: EA plus acupoint-injection therapy for sciatica of nerve roots is remarkable in the clinical effect and needs promotion in clinic.展开更多
