Conclusion： Combined simplified taijiquan and auricular point sticking works accurately for perimenopausal insomnia, and the total effective rate is better than that of auricular point sticking alone.     

Clinical observation on acupuncture plus acupoint sticking for bronchial asthma in remissive state

Objective： To observe the clinical efficacy of acupuncture plus acupoint sticking for bronchial asthma in remissive state. Methods： A total of 210 cases with asthma at remissive state were randomly allocated into an acupuncture group of 100 cases and a comprehensive therapy group of 110 cases. Cases in the acupuncture group were treated with acupuncture alone, and cases in the comprehensive therapy group were treated with acupuncture plus acupoint sticking therapy. Then the therapeutic efficacies were compared using observation indexes including wheezing, cough and coughing up phlegm, peak expiratory flow （PEF） and forced expiratory volume in one second （FEV1）. In addition, the overall therapeutic efficacies were also analyzed on different traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） patterns. Results： The comprehensive therapy obtained better effects than acupuncture alone in alleviating cough and coughing up phlegm and improving PEF and FEV1; the overall efficacies on asthma due to lung-qi deficiency and spleen-qi deficiency were better than those on asthma due to kidney-qi deficiency. Conclusion： Acupuncture plus acupoint sticking is a convenient and effective therapy for asthma at remissive state and therefore worthy of being popularized.     

Effect of combining acupuncture and auricular point sticking on heart rate variability in patients with post-stroke depression

Objective

To investigate the effect of combining acupuncture and auricular point sticking on heart rate variability (HRV) in patients with post-stroke depression (PSD).

Methods

A total of 80 cases with PSD were randomized into a treatment group and a control group. The control group was intervened by oral administration of paroxetine hydrochloride, whereas the treatment group received acupuncture plus auricular point sticking base on the same oral administration. The Hamilton depression rating scale (HAMD) and HRV were measured before and after treatment in both groups.

Results

The individual and global scores of HAMD significantly dropped after 8 weeks of treatment in both groups (all P<0.05). In the treatment group, anxiety/somatization factor, sleep disturbance, hopelessness factor, cognition factor and global score were significantly different from those in the control group (all P<0.05). The 24 h standard deviation of all normal-to-normal R-R interval (SDNN), standard deviation of 5-minute average of normal R-R intervals (SDANN), root mean square of successive differences (RMSSD), percent of differences between adjacent normal R-R intervals >50 ms (PNN50) and high frequency (HF) were increased while low frequency (LF) and LF/HF decreased significantly after 8 weeks of treatment in both groups (P<0.05). All items in the treatment group were significantly different from those in the control group (all P<0.05).

Conclusion

Combining acupuncture and auricular point sticking can enhance the conventional medical treatment for HRV in patients with PSD.

Clinical observation of scalp acupuncture plus speech rehabilitation for Broca’s aphasia after cerebral stroke

Objective

To explore the clinical efficacy of scalp acupuncture plus speech rehabilitation in treating Broca’s aphasia after cerebral stroke, for providing novel evidences for the treatment.

Methods

Ninety-one eligible patients with Broca’s aphasia after cerebral stroke were randomized into an observation group and a control group. Forty-six cases in the observation group were intervened by scalp acupuncture plus speech rehabilitation, while 45 cases in the control group were treated by speech rehabilitation alone.

There was a significant difference in comparing the BDAE grading between the two groups after the treatment (P<0.05). After intervention, the basically-recovered plus markedly-effective rate was 45.7% in the observation group versus 24.4% in the control group, and the between-group difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).

Conclusion

Scalp acupuncture plus speech rehabilitation is effective in treating Broca’s aphasia after cerebral stroke, and worth promoting.
