Amng the 100 cases in the beating-acupuncture group, 85 cases were cured and 11 cases improved, the cure rate was 85 %; Of the 50 cases in the filiform needle acupuncture group, 25 cases were cured and 23 improved, the cure rate was 50 %. There was a statis-tically significant difference(P<0.01 ) between the two grdrips. It is indicated that the curative effect of beating-acupuncture on cervical spondylopathy is obviously superior to that of fili form-needle acupuncture, which provides a new therapy without traumatic pain for clinical treatment of cervical spondylopathy,展开更多

Methods: 145 patients diagnosed as CSNRT were randomized into 3 groups: combined treatment group, EA group, and cervical traction (CT) group. The combined group was treated with traction followed by EA of Dazhui (大椎 GV 14), Fengchi (风池 GB 20), cervical Jiaji (夹脊 EX-B 2), etc.. Patients of two control groups were only treated by either CT or EA. Results: The markedly-effective rate and total effective rate were 76.0% and 94.0% respectively in the combined treatment group, 62.5% and 81.25% respectively in CT group, and 63.82% and 82.97% respectively in EA group. The therapeutic effect of the combined treatment group was significantly superior to that of two control groups (P<0.05). At 6-month follow-up, the above two markedly-effective and total effective rates in the combined treatment group remained 74.0% and 92.0%, still significantly higher than that in two control groups. Conclusion: Combining cervicle traction with EA treatment can effectively eliminate or relieve the symptoms and signs in patients with nerve root type cervical spondylopathy.展开更多

Methods: A total of 54 cases of vertebroartery type cervical spondylopathy patients were observed in the present study. Fengfu (GV 16) and Jiaji (EX B 2) near the regenerated cervical vertebral body were used for injection of Ligustrazine injectio, 1 mL every acupoint, once every other day, with 7 sessions being a therapeutic course. Before and after treatment, cerebral blood flow volume was determined using a Doppler velocimeter. Results: After 2 weeks’ treatment, of the 54 cases, 28 (51.9%) had their vertigo disappeared, 13 (24.1%) had remarkable improvement, 10 (18.5%) had improvement and 3 (5.5%) failed in the treatment, with an effective rate of 94.5%. After treatment, the peak and mean values of the blood flow velocity of the bilateral vertebral arteries and the basilar artery increased significantly in comparison with pre treatment ( P <0.01). Conclusion: Hydro acupuncture therapy has an obvious therapeutic effect for relieving vertebroartery type vertigo and ameliorating cerebral blood supply.展开更多

Among various types of cervical spondylopathy, the one involving the vertebral arteries is frequently encountered in the middle-aged and the old people. It is often accompanied with arteriosclerosis and high blood viscosity, and clinically it is difficult to be treated. From March 1996 to December 2000, the authors hadtreated 72 cases of cervical spondylopathy of this type and achieved satisfactory therapeutic effects shown by clinical symptoms and indicated by the trans-cranial Doppler ultrasonic examination (TCD). This is reported as follows.

Amplitudes of N 9, N 11 , N 13 , N 20 and intervals of N 9-N 13 , N 13 -N 20 and N 9-N 20 of SEP were used as indexes. After 3 courses of treatment, the clinical therapeutic effect of EA group was significantly superior to that of control group (P<0.01); the amplitudes of the aforementioned components of SEP in both groups increased apparently while the interpeak latency shortened in different degrees. In EA group, the increased values of various components of SEP amplitude, except for N 9, were all larger than those of control group (P<0.05 for N 11 , P<0.01 for N 13 and N 20 ); the values of shortened latency of different components, except for N 13 -N 20 , were all larger than those of control group (P<0.01 for N 9-N 13 and N 9-N 20 ). It suggests that SEP possess a certain significance in diagnosis and evaluation of CS and can be used as one of the objective indexes for evaluation of the therapeutic effect.展开更多

Methods： 176 cases were divided into the treatment group （89 cases） and control group （87 cases） randomly.Acupuncture on points Geshu （BL 17）, Fengchi （GB 20） and Bailao （Ex-HN） was applied, and meanwhile moxibustion on points Baihui （GV 20） and Shangxing （GV 23） was applied in the treatment group, while Flunarizine was orally taken in the control group. Results： The bloodactivating and orifice-opening method with acupuncture and moxibustion could significantly improve the comprehensive curative effect clinically, increase the subjective index score and the sign score significantly, and change hemodynamics obviously. Its effect was better than that of the control group. It was also found that its follow-up effect was significantly better that of the control group. Conclusion. The blood-activating and orifice-opening method with acupuncture and moxibustion has a definite effect on vertebroarterial cervical spondylopathy.展开更多
