Methods Sixty-four cases of insomnia were selected and divided randomly into a back-shu points group （group A） and a conventional acupoints group （group B） by a computer generated allocation list, 32 cases in each one. In the trial group, acupuncture was applied at xinshu （心俞 15）, Ganshu （刊俞 18）, Pishu （脾俞 BL 20） and Geshu （膈俞 BL 17）. In the control group, acupuncture was applied conventionally to Neiguan （内关 PC 6）, Shenmen （神门 HT 7）, Sanyinjiao （三阴交 SP 6）, Baihui （百会 GV 20） and Sishencong （四神聪 EX-HN 2）. Ten treatments made a session. The efficacy was analyzed statistically after 3 sessions of treatment. Results There were significant differences between the two groups in the relief of sleep disorders after the treatment （P〈0.O2）. The improvement in sleep efficiency was different significantly （P〈0.05）. The difference in sleep difficulty was significant in Chinese medicine （TCM） symptom score （P〈0.05）. Conclusion The clinical efficacy is achieved by either acupuncture at back-shu points or by acupuncture at conventional acupoints. The improvements of sleep efficiency and sleep disorder scores in PSO.I, and sleep difficulty in TCM as well as the long-term efficacy are superior in group A as compared with those in group B.展开更多

To investigate the effect of acupuncture or moxibustion at acupoint Geshu （BL 17） on raising leukocyte and promoting marrow proliferation. Methods.. Wister rats were selected to establish the leukopenia and immuno-suppression model by intraperitoneal injection of cytoxan （CTX）. After they were grouped and treated, leukocyte and marrow karyocyte were counted in different phases to evaluate the effect of acupuncture or moxibustion at acupoint Geshu （BL 17） on raising leukocyte and promoting marrow hematopoiesis. Results. Acupuncture or moxibustion at acupoint Geshu （BL 17） and routine western medicine could all significantly raise leukocyte and increase marrow karyocyte. The curative effect was better in moxibustion group than in acupuncture group and in routine western medicine group （P〈 0.05）. Conclusion. Moxibustion at acupoint Geshu （BL 17） can markedly raise peripheral blood leukocyte and marrow karyocyte of the leucopenia model in rats.展开更多

Methods： A total of 60 cases meeting the inclusion criteria were randomized into an observation group and a control group, 30 cases in each group. Cases in the observation group received liver-regulating and blood-tonifying acupuncture, in which Jiaji （EX-B 2） points of C3_C7, Ganshu （BL 18） and Geshu （BL 17） were used; cases in the control group received routine acupuncture treatment in which jiaji （EX-B2） points of C3.C7 were used. Both groups received 5 times of treatment in a week with a 2-day rest, symptoms evaluation was done after 4 weeks of treatment, and then therapeutical effect was evaluated. Results： The total effective rate was 90.0% in the observation group, 73.3% in the control group, and inter-group comparison showed a statistical significance （P〈0.05）. After treatment, the symptoms and signs scores in both groups all substantially dropped, showing statistical significances （both P〈0.05）; inter-group comparison showed that the improvements in subscales of dizziness, pressing pain along vertebrae and revolve-cervix test in the observation group were superior than those in the control group, showing statistical significances （all P〈0.05）, while the inter-group comparisons of subscales of headache and vomiting and nause didn＇t show any statistical significances after treatment （both P〉0.05）. Conclusion： Liver-regulating and blood-tonifying acupuncture is effective in treating cervical spondylosis of vertebral artery type, and it can significantly improve patients＇ symptoms and signs.展开更多
