Methods: Twenty-two subjects were recruited and treated by puncturing corresponding Back-Shu points based on syndrome differentiation. The short-form General Health Survey (MOSSF GHS) and the Chalder Questionnaires for Fatigue were adopted for evaluating the therapeutic effects. Results: Of the 22 patients, 4 cases showed a marked effect, 11 got effect, 7 got failure, and the total effective rate was 68.2%. Conclusion: Puncturing Back-Shu points is effective in relieving the symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome and enhancing the patients' health standard.展开更多

The reason for this focuses on evaluation criterion of effects on solid tumor made by the World Health Organization (WHO), which does not reflect some aspects such as survival time of tumor patients or improvement in quality of life (QOL). Therefore, forerunners in the CM field have been making efforts to try to find an evaluation criteria that would integrate CM and WM, and thus could be approved by CM and WM specialists.展开更多

Data sources The data analyzed in this review were mainly from relevant articles without restriction on the publication date reported in PubMed, MedSci, Google scholar. The terms "myofasial trigger points" and "myofacial pain syndrome" were used for the literature search. Study selection Original articles with no limitation of research design and critical reviews containing data relevant to myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) and MPS were retrieved, reviewed, analyzed and summarized. Results Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is characterized by painful taut band, referred pain, and local response twitch with a prevalence of 85% to 95% of incidence. Several factors link to the etiology of MTrPs, such as the chronic injury and overload of muscles. Other factors, such as certain nutrient and hormone insufficiency, comorbidities, and muscle imbalance may also maintain the MTrP in an active status and induce recurrent pain. The current pathology is that an extra leakage acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction induces persistent contracture knots, relative to some hypotheses of integration, muscle spindle discharges, spinal segment sensitization, ect. MTrPs can be diagnosed and localized based on a few subjective criteria. Several approaches, including both direct and supplementary treatments, can inactivate MTrPs. Direct treatments are categorized into invasive and conservative. Conclusion This review provides a clear understanding of MTrP pain and introduces the most useful treatment approaches in China.展开更多

Japanese specialists in the acupuncture field have pointed out that sufficient attention should be paid to its various malpractices. Responding to their questioning, the author put forward some main problems existing and made certain analysis. Diagnosis and treatment based on an overall analysis of symptoms and signs should be expressed in their application according to successive theories, methods, prescriptions, acupoints and techniques. In order to elevate therapeutic effects of acupuncture, forth effort should be put to various aspects, such as clinical skills, functional regularity, indications and affected factors.展开更多
