During his 70 years of clinical practice, he developed the theory that most diseases are caused by qi stagnation, and in order to restore qi circulation one needs to improve the blood circulation first. Based on this theory, in combination with empirical insights from clinical practice, he has developed a unique technique for using three-edged needles. He has also categorized and extended the application of bloodletting therapy with three edged needles to cover over 150 diseases. In addition, Dr. He＇s bloodletting therapy with three edged needles is an innovation that may inspire other physicians to develope and expand the use of acupuncture-related therapies to treat disease.展开更多

Methods： Twenty adult Sprague Dawley （SD） rats were divided randomly into five groups with 4 in each. Four groups of them were used to make Allen＇s spinal cord punch models and we took materials randomly from one of them on the 2nd, 4th, 7th and 14th day respectively after operation. The left one group was taken as the control group. Immun- ofluorescence laser confocal scan was used to examine the co-expression and localization of Netrin- 1 and Slit2 proteinsin the injured site of the spinal cord. Results： Within two weeks after SCI, the expression of Netrin- 1 and Slit2 proteins increased temporarily and there was co-expression of them on the neuron plasma membrane. Conclusions： Synchronous high expression and co-expression of axon attractant Netrin-1 and repellent Slit2 are found in the adult rat injured spinal cord in the damaged local and vicinity parts, and probably, they act as the key regulators of axon guidance regeneration.展开更多
