ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the clinical effects of electro-acupuncture in surface projection zone of the pyramid decussation in treatment of migraine. Methods Totally 120 patients with migraine who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into four groups as projection zone group, ordinary acupuncture group, western medicine group and non-acupoint group, with 30 cases in each group. Projection zone group was treated with electro-acupuncture in pyramidal cross area (from Yuzhen to Tianzhu); Ordinary acupuncture group was treated with routine point locating according to acupuncture therapeutics; Non-acupoint group was treated with 2 inch acupoints opened beside projection zone, and 3 groups were treated with electro-acupuncture (8–20 mA, 2/100 Hz) for 30 min. Western medicine group was treated with diclofenac sodium enteric-coated table. The treatment course was 10 day. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score, TCM syndrome score, self-rating anxiety scale score (SAS) and self-rating depression scale score (SDS) were evaluated before and after treatment. The therapeutic effects of the four groups were compared and analyzed. Results The total effective rate of projection zone group was 93.33%, which was obviously better than the ordinary acupuncture group (86.67%), western medicine group (70.00%) and non-acupoint group (63.33%), with statistical significance (χ2=24.440, P=0.004). Compared with before treatment, the VAS score and TCM syndrome scores in the four groups after treatment decreased significantly (P<0.05). The VAS score in the projection zone group after treatment was significantly lower than the other three groups, and the TCM syndrome scores were significantly lower than the western medicine group and non-acupoint group (P<0.05). Compared with before treatment, the SDS score in the non-acupoint group and SAS and SDS scores in the other three groups decreased significantly, with statistical significance (P<0.05). SAS and SDS scores in projection zone group after treatment was significantly lower than the other three groups (P<0.05). Conclusion The method of electro-acupuncture in surface projection zone of the pyramid decussation has obviously clinical effects, and can reduce the occurrence of bad mood.
