Among them, 15 cases were cured basicaly, 7 markedly efec-tive, 9 improved and 2 failed, with a total effective rate being 93. 8%. The results showed thatthe therapies both could improve the microcirculation of the brain tissues in favour of recovery ofcerebral functions.展开更多

Statistical analysis showed a significant difference between the two groups in effective rate (P < 0. 05). It displayed that the effect of acupuncture plus point-injection was apparentlysuperior to that of acupuncture.展开更多

It is a new therapeutic method enlightened by the theory of channels and collaterals and the theory of nerves, and advanced through clinical trials. It, therefore, exhibits not only the advantages of traditional acupuncture, but also its unique characteristics, yielding satisfactory results especially in pain of various origins.

文摘目的观察药线点灸联合针挑治疗坐骨神经痛的临床疗效及对患者血清相关炎症因子白介素-6(interleukin-6,IL-6)、白介素-1β(interleukin-1β,IL-1β)和肿瘤坏死因子-α(tumor necrosis factor-α,TNF-α)水平的影响。方法将72例坐骨神经痛患者随机分为对照组和联合组,每组36例。联合组采用药线点灸联合针挑疗法治疗,对照组予口服吲哚美辛片和速效坐骨神经痛丸治疗。观察并比较两组临床疗效、疼痛视觉模拟量表(visual analog scale,VAS)评分、腰椎功能评分以及IL-6、IL-1β和TNF-α水平。比较两组不良反应发生率。结果联合组治愈率高于对照组(P<0.05)。与对照组治疗后比较,联合组治疗后疼痛VAS评分和腰椎功能评分均降低(P<0.05)。联合组治疗后血清IL-6、IL-1β和TNF-α水平低于对照组(P<0.05)。联合组不良反应发生率低于对照组(P<0.05)。结论药线点灸联合针挑治疗可有效缓解坐骨神经痛,疗效优于口服药物治疗,这可能与调节炎症因子IL-6、IL-1β和TNF-α水平相关,且不良反应较少。
