针刺对急性脑梗塞患者血清肿瘤坏死因子的影响

目的；观察针刺对急性脑梗塞患者血清肿瘤坏死因子（TNE）的影响。方法：将68例急性脑梗塞患者，随机分成针刺组与对照组，采用酶联免疫法进行针前与针后1周的TNF的血清测定，及针前，针后1周，1月的临床疗效评估。结果：两组病例针刺后1周血清TNF均有下降，针刺组下降明显（P＜0．01）。疗效评估针后1周无明显的差异（P＞0．05），30天后两者有差异（P＜0．05）。结论：急性脑梗塞早期进行针刺能降低血清中TNF的含量，加速炎性的吸收或减少炎性的关系，促进脑组织和肢体的功能恢复。

Effect of Acupuncture on Serum Tumor Necrosis Factor in the Patient of Acute Cerebral Infarction

Purpose To observe effect of acupuncture on serum tumor necrosis factor(TNF) in the patient of acute cerebral infarction Methods Sixty?eight cases of acute cerebral infarction were divided into acupuncture group and control group,serum TNF contents before acupuncture and one week after acupuncture were determined with enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the clinical therapeutic effects before acupuncture and one week and one month after acupuncture were assessed Results TNF contents in the two groups lowered one week after acupuncture, with a significant decrease in the acupuncture group( P <0 01); There was no significant difference between the two groups in the therapeutic effect one week after acupuncture and there was a significant difference 30 days after acupuncture( P <0 05) Conclusion Acupuncture at early stage can decrease serum content of TNF, quicken inflammatory absorption or decrease inflammatory response and accelerate functional restoration of brain and limbs in the patient of acute cerebral infarction
