Methods： A total of 60 males with heroin dependence were randomly allocated into 3 groups, the Neiguan （PC 6） group, the Shenmen （HT 7） group and the control group. The results were observed and evaluated before, during, and 3 weeks after treatment using the rating scale for post-withdrawal syndrome and Hamilton anxiety scale （HAMA）. Results： In regards to the control of post-withdrawal symptoms, the groups of Neiguan （PC 6） and Shenmen （HT 7） showed statistical difference when compared with the control group （P〈0.05, P〈0.01）; however, there was no statistical difference between the Neiguan （PC 6） group and Shenmen （HT 7） group （P〉0.05）. Conclusion： Acupuncture can alleviate the post-withdrawal syndrome and anxiety of heroin dependence. Although both Neiguan （PC 6） and Shenmen （HT 7） have equally remarkable effects, Shenmen （HT 7） have a better tendency for marked effect for heart-mind related symptoms.展开更多

Methods： Sixty heroin-withdrawal subjects with negative urine morphine were digitally randomized into two groups： acupuncture group in which 30 cases were treated by electroacupuncture and control group in which 30 cases were given no treatment. The patients were assessed by Hamilton anxiety scale before treatment and one week, two weeks and three weeks after treatment. Results： After treatment, the anxiety symptoms of heroin-dependent patients were improved more significantly in the acupuncture group than in the control group （P〈0.01）. Conclusion： Electroacupuncture has good effects on anxiety symptoms and emotions of heroin-dependent patients.展开更多

Methods： Sixty-two male patients with heroin dependence were divided into two groups by random number table. Thirty-five cases in the acupuncture group were treated by puncturing Baihui （GV 20）, Neiguan （PC 6）, and Shenmen （HT 7） and moxibustion at Zusanli （ST 36）. Twenty-seven cases in the control group did not receive any therapeutic measures. The therapeutic effects were summarized after observation of 8 weeks. Results： After treatment, the global scores and standard scores of anxiety declined in comparison with those before the treatment in both two groups, but there was statistical difference only in the acupuncture group （P〈0.05）. There were no statistical differences in the global score and the standard score of anxiety between the two groups, but the standard scores in the acupuncture group reached the normal level. After treatment, only the sleep latency was obviously improved in the control group （P〈0.05）. The syndromes of sleep disorder were improved noticeable in the acupuncture group （P〈0.05）, and the actual sleep time was improved better than those in the control group （P〈0.05）, and PSQI global scores decreased below the normal level. Conclusion： Acupuncture has the effects to improve sleep disorders and anxious emotion in the patients with heroin dependence.展开更多
