春季角结膜炎中医药治疗最新进展

春季角结膜炎是一种比较难治的眼病,症状明显,但发病原因尚不明确,近年来随着中医眼科对该病认识的不断深入,在临床治疗上取得了较好的效果,本文对相关情况进行了总结.     

ELECTROACUPUNCTURE TREATMENT OF OBESITY WITH PSYCHOLOGICAL SYMPTOMS

The aim was to study the effect of placebo EA, electroacupuncture (EA), and diet on obesity and accompanying psychological symptoms. One hundred and sixty-five volunteer women participated in the study. There were three groups: (i) Placebo EA, (ii) EA, and (iii) diet restriction group. EA was performed by using three ear and six body points. There was a 4.8% reduction in weight of patients with EA application, whereas patients with a diet restriction and placebo EA had a 2.5% and 2.7% weight reduction, respectively. There were significant decreases in phobia, anger, anxiety, obsession, paranoid symptoms, and depression in the EA groups compared to those of the placebo EA and diet groups. It was suggested that electroacupuncture may be an effective therapy for obesity including the psychological signs and symptoms in women.     

类风湿关节炎骨破坏及其针灸治疗的骨免疫学机制研究现状

免疫系统和骨骼系统共享多种信号通路和细胞因子，并通过免疫细胞与骨组织细胞相互连接，骨免疫学的主要内容即是研究两者之间相互作用的复杂关系，类风湿关节炎骨破坏的机制亦在于此。针灸具有良好的抗炎镇痛、调节免疫与内分泌、改善微循环等作用，其治疗类风湿关节炎骨破坏的机制主要包括调节破骨细胞、调节NF-κB受体激活蛋白配体（RANKL）-RANK-骨保护素（OPG）通路、调节炎症因子等。参考文献35篇。     

针灸治疗绝经后骨质疏松症研究进展

针灸对去势大鼠骨代谢具有良性调节作用,可改善去势大鼠骨超微结构的病理改变,提高大鼠骨力学性能及BMD,预防骨量丢失。针灸的以上作用与针灸从整体调节去势大鼠内分泌功能尤其是提高血清性激素水平以及调节骨代谢相关细胞因子网络平衡,改善骨代谢负平衡状态,降低骨转换率等密不可分。但其机制研究仍停留在较表浅的层面,还未深入到基因水平,应加强针灸对PMOP骨破坏或骨形成过程的调控机制的研究。

缪刺法治疗面肌痉挛33例

目的:观察缪刺法治疗面肌痉挛的临床效果。方法:选取2010年5月—2012年5月在本院诊治的面肌痉挛患者66例,所有患者排除神经系统器质性病变,行脑电图和头颅CT等检查排除癫痫及占位性病变,随机分为观察组和对照组,每组33例。两组患者入院后均给予基础治疗,对照组患者采用常规患侧取穴针刺治疗,观察组患者采用缪刺法治疗。结果:对照组有效率为69.7%,观察组有效率为87.9%,观察组优于对照组(P0.05);观察组治疗后中医证候积分优于对照组(P0.05)。结论:缪刺法治疗面肌痉挛疗效显著。     

Spinal Cord Injury: How Could Acupuncture Help?

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is one of the most common causes of death and disability worldwide, and it can result in both permanent disability and serial complications in patients. Research shows that patients with SCI complications are often interested in acupuncture for symptomatic relief. Therefore, the issue of physicians advising their patients regarding the use of acupuncture to alleviate SCI complications becomes pertinent. We review and summarize two types of relevant publications: (1) literature concerning acupuncture for SCI and its complications and (2) underlying mechanisms of acupuncture therapy for SCI. Clinical trials and reviews have suggested that acupuncture effectively manages a range of post-SCI complications, including motor and sensory dysfunction, pain, neurogenic bowel and bladder, pressure ulcers, spasticity, and osteoporosis. The effect of acupuncture on post-SCI orthostatic hypotension and sexual dysfunction remains unclear. Decreased oxidative stress, inhibition of inflammation and neuronal apoptosis, regulation of the expression and activity of endogenous biological mediators, and increased regenerative stem cell production are the possible mechanisms of acupuncture therapy for SCI. Although many limitations have been reported in previous studies, given the evidence for the efficacy of acupuncture, we recommend that physicians should support the use of acupuncture therapy for SCI complications.     

温通针法结合配穴治疗排尿功能障碍验案2例

通过对同期排尿功能障碍的2例女性患者的不同临床表现进行辨证配穴,同时施以温通针法进行治疗。结果表明,运用温通针法结合配穴对治疗排尿功能障碍病例效果显著,并对此方法治疗排尿功能障碍的机理进行讨论。说明温通针法结合配穴对治疗泌尿系统疾病有较好的双向良性调节作用。
