Electroacupuncture combined with auricular acupressure in the treatment of nervous tinnitus

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture combined with auricular acupressure in treatment of nervous tinnitus. Methods One hundred and four patients with nervous tinnitus were randomly divided into a group A and a group B according to the method of random number table, with 52 patients in each group. In the group A, acupuncture at Yìfēng（翳风 TE 17）, Tīnggōng（听宫 SI 19）, Tīnghuì（听会 GB 2）, ěrmén（耳门 TE 21） and Fēngchí（风池 GB 20） combined with auricular acupressure, such as Shènshàngxiàn（肾上腺 TG 2p）, Jiāog？n（交感 AH6a）, Nèifēnmì（内分泌 CO18）, Nèi？r（内耳 LO 6）, Wài？r（外耳 TG1u）, Shèn（肾 CO10） and Gān（肝 CO12） were applied; in the group B, intravenous injection with compound Dānshēn（丹参 Radix et Rhizoma Salviae Miltiorrhizae） dissolved in 250 m L of 0.9% Na Cl injection were applied, combined with oral administration of 10 mg of Vitamin B1 and 0.5 mg of mecobalamin tablets. After treatment for three courses in the two groups, efficacy was evaluated based on Reference Standards of Severity, Assessment and Efficacy Evaluation of Tinnitus. Results In the group A（75 ears with nervous tinnitus）, 30 ears were cured, markedly effective was seen in 21 ears, and effective in 22, and the total effective rate was 97.4%; in the group B（76 ears with nervous tinnitus）, 17 ears were cured, markedly effective was seen in 20 ears, and effective in 23, and the total effective rate was 79.0%. The total effective rate in the group A was obviously superior to that in the group B, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant（P〈0.05）. Compared before the treatment, the score of tinnitus severity both reduced in two groups（both P〈0.05）, and the reducing amplitude of score in the group A was greater than that in the group B（P〈0.05）. Conclusion Electroacupuncture combined with auricular acupressure in treatment of nervous tinnitus is worthy of clinical promotion and application since it has significant efficacy, which is obviously superior to drug therapy, and without adverse effect.

Effects of electroacupuncture combined with auricular plaster on F% and waist-hip ratio in simple obesity patients

Objective To observe and compare the difference of clinical therapeutic effect of electroacupuncture combined with auricular plaster therapy and electroacupuncture therapy on simple obesity. Methods sixty female patients of simple obesity were randomly divided into two groups： an electroacupuncture group and a combined group. Each group had 30 patients treated respectively with electroacupuncture and electroacupuncture therapy combined with auricular point pressing therapy. The changes of the body mass index （BMI）, body fat percentage （F%）, and waist-hip ratio （WHR） were observed to evaluate the effect of loosing weight. Results Compared with the scores before treatment, the BMI, F%, WHR level in two groups dropped （ all P〈0.01 ） in all 60 patients. And compared with the electroacupuncture group, the combined group dropped more obviously （ P〈0.05, P〈0.01 ） . Conclusion The effects of electroacupuncture therapy and electroacupuncture combined with auricular plaster therapy on simple obesity were both remarkable, but more in the combined group, so it indicates that the combined therapy is better than single therapy.

Clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture in controlling myopia in children and its influence on retinal blood flow

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture(EA)in controlling myopia in children and its effect on retinal blood flow.Methods:Sixty-eight myopic children were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group,with 34 cases in each group.The control group was given auricular acupressure treatment alone,and the observation group was treated with EA once a week in addition to the treatment used in the control group.The spherical equivalent refraction(SER)and axial length(AL)were measured at baseline,and after 3 months and 6 months of treatment.Optical coherence tomography angiography was used to measure the vessel density(VD)and perfusion density(PD)in the surface layer of the retina.Results:After 3 months and 6 months of treatment,the changes in SER between the two groups were not statistically significant(P>0.05).After 3 months of treatment,the changes in AL between the two groups were not statistically significant(P>0.05);after 6 months of treatment,the change amount of AL in the observation group was smaller than that in the control group(P<0.05);after 3 months and 6 months of treatment,the changes in VD and PD in the surface layer of the retina in the observation group were significantly greater than those in the control group(P<0.01).Conclusion:EA treatment once a week for 6 months can delay the increase of AL and improve the retinal surface blood flow in myopic children.

Review of Vascular Headache Treated by Acupuncture from 1949 to 2004
