Methods: A total of 84 patients with acute thoracodorsal myofascitis who met the diagnostic and inclusion criteria were assigned into the treatment group and the control group randomly, the treatment group was treated with Hegu neediling method combined with tendon-stretching and plucking massage, while the control group was treated with conventional electroacupuncture. Two groups of patients were treated for two weeks. VAS score and ODI were compared before treatment, after the first treatment and after the treatment course, and the clinical efficacy was evaluated after treatment.Results: The total effective rates of the treatment group and the control group were 97.62% and 80.95%, respectively. The treatment group was significantly better than the control group. The VAS and ODI scores of the treatment group decreased after the first treatment and the end of the treatment, and the treatment group was significantly better than the control group.Conclusion:Hegu neediling method combined with tendon-stretching and plucking massage can relieve pain and improve limb dysfunction in patients with acute thoracodorsal myofascitis.展开更多

The results showed that (1) The present therapy is effective for enuresis with cure rate of 66.18% and total effective rate of 92. 65 %; (2) The curative effects was related with the syndrome differentiation (P <0. 01), e. g. it is effective for deficiency of kidney-Yang and deficiency of Qi in lung and spleen types, but ineffective for the type of downward flow of damp-heat; (3) The therapeutic effect was also closely related with the course of disease. The shorter the course of illness lasted, the more effective the therapy was, indicating that such patients should be treated in the early stage. This method is not only comparable to other conventional acupuncture methods in respects of the cure rate and total effective rate, but is also simple to apply, safe to use, easy to be accepted by children and adverse-effect free. It is deserved to be popularized as a effective therapy for enuresis in children patients.展开更多

An axisymmetrical nonlinear model and an arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian finite element method (ALE-FEM) with rezoning algorithm were introduced to study the viscous flow through an axisymmetrical rigid tube with axially moving stenosis to simulate the rolling manipulation. Flow rate and wall shear stress were obtained by solving complete Navier-Stokes equations numerically. The numerical results show that the stenosis moving frequency, namely the frequency of rolling manipulation, has great effect on the disturbance of flow and the wall shear stress. The stenosis coefficient, which characterizes the severity of the stenosis, another adjustable parameter in rolling manipulation, also shows the significant effect on flow rate and wall shear stress. These numerical results may provide some data that can be taken into consideration when massage is used in clinic.展开更多

The simulated results show that the motion of each particle is considerably modified by the rolling massage,and it depends on the relative rolling velocity, the rolling depth,and the distance between particle position and rolling position. Both particles＇translational average velocities increase almost linearly as the rolling velocity increases,and obey the same law. The increment of the average relative angular velocity for the leading particle is smaller than that of the trailing one. The result is helpful for understanding the mechanism of the massage and to further develop the rolling techniques.展开更多
