| Abstract: | In the present paper, 160 cases of sciatica patients were divided into combined treatmentgroup (acupuncture plus point-injection, 100 cases) and acupuncture group (control group, 60 cases).After two courses of treatment, of the 100 cases in the combined treatment group, 72 (72% ) werecured, 25 (25 % ) effective and 3 (3 % ) had no effect, with an effective rate of 97%; Of the 60 casesin the control group, 30 (50 % ) were cured, 21 (35 % ) effective and 9 (15 % ) had no effect, with aneffective rate of 85 %. Statistical analysis showed a significant difference between the two groups in effective rate (P < 0. 05). It displayed that the effect of acupuncture plus point-injection was apparentlysuperior to that of acupuncture. |
