运用彭静山教授“一点二穴三线四面取穴法”针刺治疗难治性面瘫

彭静山教授提出“一点二穴三线四面”八字取穴法。笔者运用此八字取穴法指导针灸临床取穴治疗难治性面瘫,临床效果显著。本文列举临床典型病例,详细阐述取穴和针刺治疗方法,并对治疗机理进行论述。对于难治性面瘫,单纯毫针针刺治疗效果有一定局限性,以“一点二穴三线四面”八字取穴法为基础,取穴点以透刺连接构成线、面,以芒针联合透刺法为主要治疗方法,可强化治疗效果、提高临床效应。     

Can acupuncture combined with SSRIs improve clinical symptoms and quality of life in patients with depression? Secondary outcomes of a pragmatic randomized controlled trial

ObjectivesTo explore the effects of acupuncture (manual acupuncture or electroacupuncture) combined with SSRIs for moderate to severe depression improving major clinical symptoms and life quality of the patients on secondary outcomes.DesignPragmatic, parallel, randomized controlled trial.Setting6 hospitals in China.Interventions6 weeks of manual acupuncture (MA)+selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), electroacupuncture (EA)+SSRIs, and SSRIs alone.Main outcome measuresThe primary outcome was response rate of 17-item Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD-17) total score at 6^th week. The secondary outcomes reported in this analysis were HAMD-17 factor scores at 1^st, 2^nd, 4^th, 6^th, 10^th week and WHO Quality of Life-BREF (WHOQOL-BREF) scores at 6^th week.Results477 patients were randomly assigned into MA + SSRIs (n = 161), EA + SSRIs (n = 160), or SSRIs alone (n = 156) groups. For HAMD-17 (at 6^th week), the MA + SSRIs group was significantly better than the SSRIs alone group in retardation factor (p = 0.008), while the EA+SSRIs group was significantly better than the SSRIs alone group in anxiety/somatization factor (p<0.001) and sleep disturbance factor (p = 0.002). For WHOQOL-BREF (at 6^th week), the EA + SSRIs group, compared with the SSRIs alone group, produced a more significant improvement in the overall quality of life, general health, physical health, and psychological health (p<0.05). While, the MA + SSRIs group, compared to the SSRIs alone group, showed significant advantage only in psychological health (p = 0.023).ConclusionsEither MA or EA combined SSRIs treatment could improve symptoms and quality of life for patients with moderate to severe depression. The main limitation of this trial was not using a sham control therefore the placebo effect could not be excluded.

Association between gastrointestinal heat retention syndrome and respiratory tract infections in children: A prospective cohort study

ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between gastrointestinal heat retention syndrome and the incidence of pneumonia and recurrent respiratory tract infections (RRTIs) in children.MethodsA prospective cohort study was conducted in the pediatric outpatient department of Beijing Dongfang Hospital. Children without respiratory tract infections (RTIs) were consecutively recruited according to the selection criteria. A semi-structured questionnaire was used to record traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) symptoms and demographic and physiological characteristics. Gastrointestinal heat retention syndrome was considered to be a predisposing factor and was diagnosed according to a scale with reliability and validity. The participants were followed up for 12 months. Participants and their parents or guardians were contacted via clinical interviews and telephone every 6 months. Episodes of pneumonia and RTIs were recorded in detail.ResultsA total of 420 children were included. Of participants, 370 (88.10%) were followed up for 12 months. The mean number of RTI episodes per participant was 5.37 (95% CI: 5.14 to 5.60). In total, 186 participants in the gastrointestinal heat retention syndrome group and 184 participants in the non-gastrointestinal heat retention syndrome group completed the 12-month follow-up period. The baseline of both groups was comparable. The incidence of RRTIs in children with gastrointestinal heat retention syndrome was 1.27 (95% CI: 1.01 to 1.59) times that in children without gastrointestinal heat retention syndrome. Logistic regression analysis revealed that abnormally increased appetite with frequent hunger, foul breath, dry stools, and dark red or purple fingerprints were positively correlated with the incidence of pneumonia. Irascibility and feverish feelings in the palms and soles were positively correlated with the occurrence of RRTI.ConclusionsGastrointestinal heat retention syndrome is a risk factor for RRTIs in children. Studies with larger sample sizes and longer follow-up time are warranted to confirm the degree of causal risk associated with RTIs.     

国医大师防治新型冠状病毒肺炎处方分析

目的分析目前公布的国医大师预防或治疗新型冠状病毒肺炎(COVID-19)的处方,解读其辨证思路及用药规律。方法检索国医大师公布的关于预防或治疗COVID-19的处方,检索期限自2020年1月1日至2020年2月12日。结果共9位国医大师公布了22个处方。周仲瑛、孙光荣、唐祖宣、李佃贵、金世元、王琦、熊继柏、刘祖贻共8位国医大师开具了9个预防用方,涉及中药32味,处方以益气、化湿、清热解毒为主,辅以养阴清热、疏风解表、宣肺化痰。唐祖宣、杨春波、李佃贵、孙光荣4位国医大师开具了10个治疗类处方,涉及中药61味,处方以化湿、清热、解毒为基本法则,唐老按湿邪与寒、热、毒邪分型证治,杨老依湿邪在体内的传变为辨证依据,李老专攻"湿热浊毒",孙老强调"疏风清热"。李佃贵、周仲瑛、王琦3位国医大师开具了3个香囊处方,涉及中药14味,均选用了藿香芳香化湿。结论多位国医大师积极参与防治COVID-19,对本病的病因病机认识基本一致,不论是治疗处方或是预防处方皆以益气、化湿、清热、解毒为主,结合用药频次统计,使用药物最多的是黄芪、藿香、金银花,具体证治方面则不尽相同。     

从气从痰论治顽固性胃食管反流病

胃食管反流病多因饮食不节、七情失和、素体禀赋虚弱等原因,导致脾胃受损,土壅木郁,肝胃不和,胃失和降,胃气上逆,出现反酸、烧心、嗳气、胃胀等症状。其发生与肝、脾、胃密切相关,气机逆乱,胃失和降是其基本病机。由于本病病程较长,病情易反复发作,易成为顽固性胃食管反流病。而顽固性胃食管反流病多为本虚标实之证,本虚是指因疾病反复发作所导致的脾胃虚弱,标实是指由于脾胃虚弱、脾失健运、土壅木郁、气机不畅所导致的痰湿、气滞、热郁、血瘀等实邪。最后结局是痰气郁(瘀)交阻,脾胃升降失司,胃气上逆,从而引起反酸烧心反复发作,缠绵难愈。纵观核心病机,乃"气郁"、"痰阻"导致的胃失和降、胃气上逆。治疗顽固性胃食管反流病时宜"从气而治""从痰而治"。     

补肾活血法改善乳腺癌认知功能下降的临床观察

目的：探讨补肾活血方药治疗化疗后认知功能下降乳腺癌患者的临床疗效。方法：选取2015年11月至2017年11月首都医科大学附属北京中医医院收治的化疗后不同程度认知障碍的乳腺癌患者72例作为研究对象，按照随机数字表法随机分为对照组和观察组，每组36例。对照组给予对应的安慰剂，观察组给予补肾活血为主的方药，均为2次/d，共治疗6周。分别在治疗前后观察2组患者的认知功能（蒙特利尔量表、FACT量表）、生命质量、中医症候评分等。结果：在认知功能评价中，药物观察组患者蒙特利尔量表评分治疗后较治疗前显著提高（P<0.05），与对照组比较也有明显提高（P<0.05）。中药观察组患者的FACT-cog量表积分治疗后较治疗前有显著提高（P<0.05），且与对照组比较有显著提高（P<0.05）。观察组治疗后中医证候评分较治疗前及对照组治疗后均明显提高（P<0.05），观察组与对照组治疗前后的生命质量评分差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论：补肾活血中药一定程度上可以有效改善乳腺癌患者化疗后导致的认知功能下降，但对生命质量的改善并不明显。
