A CONTROL STUDY OF CLINICAL THERAPEUTIC EFFECTS OF LASER-ACUPUNCTURE ON DEPRESSIVE NEUROSIS

In this study, there were 62 patients with depressive neurosis. AInong them, 31 caseswere treated by laseracupuncture, another 31 cases were treated by pharmacotherapy, such as Antide-pressants and Antianxietics. The course of treatment for each case was 21 days. The therapeutic ef-fects, which were comprehensively evaluated with Hamilton's Depression Scale (HAMD) and Hamil-ton's Anxiety Scale (HAMI) as well as Clinical Global Impression Scale (CGI) in combination withtraditional evaluation of clinical therapeutic effect, indicated that treating the depressive neurosis withlaser-acupuncture can obtain sound effects with a clinical effective rate of 90. 32 percent, markedly ef-fective rate of 67. 74 percent. The global scores of Hamilton's Depression Scale and Hamilton's Anxi-ety scale after treatment were obviously less than those before treatment (P<0.001 ), similar to theeffects of pharmacotherapy or even much better than those in pharmacotherapy group in some aspects.Treating with laser-acupuncture wa

Qiuhou (EX-HN 7), Jing-ming (BL 1), Ganshu (BL 18), Pishu (BL 20), Fengchi (GB 20), Cuanzhu (BL 2), Yiming (EX-HN 14), Guangming (GB 37), Taiyang (EX-HN 5), Yanglao (SI 6), Sibai (ST 2), Tongziliao(GB 1) were selected as main points, of which three to five points were punctured each time, but thefirst two were used necessarily. According to an overall differentiation of symptoms and signs auxiliarypoints were supplemented. The treatment was given once everyday with the manipulations of twirlingneedles plus slow or rapid insertion for reinforcing or reducing to make the needling sensation reach theeye regions. Twelve treatments made a course with an interval of 3 days between the two courses. Itwas shown that 15 cases were markedly effective (3l. 25 % ), 26 improved (54. 17% ), and 7 ineffec-tive (14. 58 % ). The total effective rate was 85.42%.

电针穴位对正常人补体系统某些成份影响的观察

<正> 一般认为机体对疾病的抵抗力与机体的免疫功能状态有一定的关系,患病机体常常表现出免疫功能的异常。补体是正常人血清中非特异性体液免疫因素,一方面参与机体的防御机能,可促使特异性机体发挥作用,另一方面在免疫损伤中也发挥重要作用,血清补体水平的变化也可反映机体防御机能的状态或者某些免疫病理过程的存在。我们曾观察到电针穴位有增强正常人细胞免疫功能的作用。本工作试图通过电针对正常人血清某些补体成份影响的观察,进一步分析     

CONTROL OBSERVATION OF THERAPEUTIC EFFECTS ON SYNDROME OF THE 3~(rd) LUMBAR TRANSVERSE PROCESS WITH THICK SILVER WARMING NEEDLING AND ELECTRIC ACUPUNCTURE

Objective: To compare the clinical therapeutic effects on the syndrome of L3 transverse process between thick silver warming needling and electric acupuncture. Methods: One hundred and twenty cases of the syndrome of L3 transverse process were randomized into observation group and the control, 60 cases for each one. Thick silver warming needling was applied in observation group and electric acupuncture in the control. Results: The curative rate was 81.7% In observation group and 58.3% in the control, indicating significant difference (P＜0.01). The significant difference in the therapeutic effects between two groups had not been discovered yet for the cases within 3 months of sickness ( P＞0.05), but, the therapeutic effect in observation group was superior to that in the control for the cases over 3 months of sickness ( P＜0.01).Conclusion: The therapeutic effects of thick silver warming needling and electric acupuncture were quite advantageous on the syndrome of L3 transverse process, but that of thick silver warming needling was superior to electric acupuncture.
