No intervention was given to the guinea pigs in group A and group B, and acupuncture at Jǐngjiājǐ was given to the guinea pigs in group C for 30 days. ABR threshold, DPOAE amplitudes and hair cells counting of guinea pigs in each group were recorded after intervention for 30 days.Results: After intervention for 30 days, ABR threshold in group C was significantly lower than that in group B(38.46 ±7.36 vs 82.94 ±6.47, P〈0.01). and the DPOAE amplitudes in group C were obviously higher than that in group B(28.06 ±5.64 vs 25.23 ±5.38, P〈0.01). The number of cochlear hair cells in group C increased significantly, over 50% of the hair cells survived, accounting for 66.67% of the observation cases. The number of cochlear hair cells in the 3 rd and 4 th gyri was close to the normal level, and plenty of proliferous sustentacular cells can be seen. Compared with group B, the number of cochlear outer hair cells in each gyrus in group C significantly increased(36.76 ±1.97 vs 28.59±2.24, P〈0.01), indicating that acupuncture at Jǐngjiajǐ can promote the repair and regeneration of cochlear hair cells.Conclusion: Acupuncture at Jǐngjiajǐ can promote the repair and regeneration of cochlear hair cells, thus improving the hearing of guinea pigs with deafness.展开更多

Methods Sixty-five cases of patients with cervical vertigo were punctured on the points Jingjiaji and Fengchi (风池GB 20) bilaterally, from Qiangjian (强间 GV 18) to Naohu (脑户 GV 17), from Yuzhan (玉枕 BL 9) to Tianzhu (天柱 BL 10) with penetrating methods, besides, acupressure was also used on these points. It was given once a day, and 16 times constituted one course with 2 courses altogether, and then the clinical efficacy was observed. Results Twenty-five cases were cured accounting to 38.5%; 18 remarkably improved accounting to 27.7%; 19 improved accounting to 29.2%; 3 ineffective accounting to 4.6%. The total effective rate was 95.4%. Conclusion Needling Jingjiaji points in combination with acupressure can alleviate the clinical symptoms of cervical vertigo and is worthy of being promoted.展开更多
