Methods. 380 cases of the patients with soft tissue injuries were randomly divided into pattern identification group (200 cases, with the needling method by identification of deficient and excessive patterns) and meridian identification group (180 cases, with the needling method by routine meridian differentiation), to observe and compare the therapeutic effects in the two groups. Results: The curative effect was 86% in the pattern identification group and 31.11% in the meridian identification group, with a significant difference (P〈 0.01). In comparison with the total average treatment times in the cured and improved cases, the pattern identification group was 8.8 days and the meridian identification group was 15.6 days, with a remarkable significant difference (P〈 0.01). The pattern identification group was better than the meridian identification group. Conclusion: In the treatment of soft tissue injuries, the needling method by identification of deficient and excessive patterns was better than the needling method by routine meridian differentiation.展开更多
