After the treatment, the ROM increased significantly in both groups（both P〈0.01）, and the ROM in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group（P〈0.01）. The recovery rate and the total effective rate in the observation group were respectively 40.0% and 95.0%,significantly higher than 12.5% and 77.5% in the control group（P〈0.01, P〈0.05）.Conclusion： FSN can effectively relieve pain and improve the joint motion in treating SP, thus offering a novel option to the treatment of this kind of musculoskeletal disorder.

Immediate effect of Fu's subcutaneous needling for low back pain

The traditional Chinese acupuncture has been reported to alleviate pain and is widely accepted as a complement therapy for pain relief in the world.1In 1996, a novel acupuncture strategy, Fu＇s subcutaneous needling （FSN）, was developed from the traditional Chinese acupuncture, but quite different from it.2 In FSN, needles are penetrated and swayed in the subcutaneous layer, but not the muscular layer. The choosing of its insertion points doesn＇t obey the principles of traditional Chinese medicine. To date, FSN has been widely used by clinicians in China for its good job in pain management though the systemic and rigorous studies are still lack.

Clinical effect on knee osteoarthritis treated with Fu’s subcutaneous needling therapy

Objective:To observe and compare the clinical effect on knee osteoarthritis(KOA)between Fu’s subcutaneous needling therapy(FSN)and convention acupuncture.Methods:A total of 80 outpatients with KOA were divided into a FSN group(40 cases)and a conventional acupuncture group(40 cases)according to random number table.Within 1 week of treatment,FSN was used once every two days in the FSN group.The needle tip of Fu’s subcutaneous needle was inserted toward the affected muscle,about 5 mm in depth,at the angle of 15 to 25°.After the needle body lifted slightly,the needle went forward subcutaneously for 25 to 35 mm in depth and was swiped side to side horizontally with even exertion for about 1 min.According to the distribution of affected muscle,the reperfusion approach was repeated for 3 times consecutively.In the conventional acupuncture group conventional acupuncture was given,once a day,for 6 times totally.The scores of Western Ontario and McMaster universities osteoarthritis index(WOMAC)and Lysholm knee scoring scale(Lysholm)were compared between the two groups before and after 1-week treatment.The clinical effect of the two groups was analyzed statistically and evaluated.Results:After 1-week treatment with FSN,in the FSN group,the score of WOMACpain was reduced to be7.7±1.9 from 18.5±3.2,the score of WOMACstiffnessto be 1.5±0.7 from 4.5±1.8,WOMACfunction to be22.7±3.9 from 45.7±2.7 and the score of WOMACoverall to be 31.9±5.3 from 69.7±6.5.The differences were significant in comparison before and after treatment(all P<0.05).In the conventional acupuncture group,after 1-week treatment with conventional acupuncture,the score of WOMACpain was reduced to be11.3±2.8 from 18.2±3.0,the score of WOMACstiffness to be 3.0±1.6 from 5.6±1.7,WOMACfunction to be29.8±5.1 from 44.3±2.9 and the score of WOMACoverall to be 44.1±7.8 from 69.1±7.3.The differences were significant in comparison before and after treatment(all P<0.05).WOMAC score of every item in the FSN group was lower obviously than that in the conventional acupuncture group(P<0.01).After 1-week treatment,Lysholm score was increased to be 78.52±18.4 from 59.64±18.3 in the FSN group and it was to be 69.27±11.9 from 58.17±12.5 in the conventional acupuncture group.The differences were significant in comparison before and after treatment in either group(both P<0.05).Lysholm score in the FSN group was higher than that in the conventional acupuncture group(P<0.05).The total effective rate was 92.5%in the FSN group,higher than 77.5%in the conventional acupuncture group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Fu’s subcutaneous needling therapy effectively relieves the clinical symptoms of KOA and improves knee joint function.The therapeutic effect is better than that of the regular acupuncture.

Periarthritis of shoulder treated with Fu’s subcutaneous needling and electroacupuncture:A controlled trail

Objective:To observe and compare the therapeutic effect on shoulder periarthritis between Fu’s subcutaneous needling(FSN)and electroacupuncture(EA).Methods:A total of 68 patients with periarthritis of shoulder were divided into a FSN group and an EA group according to the random number table,34 cases in each one.In the FSN group,FSN was adopted,once every two days,totally for 10 times.In the EA group,EA was used once daily,consecutively for 20 times.Shoulder pain score and shoulder function score(Constant-Murley score)before and after treatment were compared between the two groups.The clinical therapeutic effect was analyzed and evaluated statistically.Results:After 20-day treatment,shoulder pain score was reduced obviously as compared with that before treatment in the patients of either group(both P<0.01).After treatment,shoulder pain score in the FSN group was lower significantly than that in the EA group(P<0.01).In 20 days of treatment,CMS was improved obviously as compared with that before treatment in the patients of both groups(both P<0.01)and CMS in the FSN group was higher significantly than that in the EA group after treatment(P<0.01).The effective rate was 94.11%in the FSN group and was 91.17%in the EA group.The remarkably effective rate was 73.52%in the FSN group,significantly higher than 20.58%in the EA group(P<0.01).Conclusion:Both FSN and EA are effective in treatment of periarthritis of shoulder,but FSN obtains a much higher remarkably effective rate in treatment of periarthritis of shoulder and its effects for relieving shoulder pain and improving shoulder function are superior to EA.Because of its effective treatment and simple operation,FSN deserves to be promoted in clinical practice for periarthritis of shoulder.
