ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To observe the effect of standardized Jin's three-needle therapy on limb motor function and nerve function defect in stroke patients, and to evaluate the placebo control method.@*METHODS@#A total of 66 patients with stroke were randomly divided into a Jin's three-needle group (33 cases, 3 cases dropped off) and a placebo needle group (33 cases, 4 cases dropped off). All the patients were treated with conventional medication and rehabilitation treatment. In addition, the patients in the Jin's three-needle group were treated with standardized Jin's three-needle therapy at temporal three points, spirit four points, hand three points, foot three points, upper extremity spasm three points, lower extremity spasm three points, etc.; while the patients in the placebo needle group were treated with placebo needling at identical points. All the treatments were given once a day, 5 days a week, and 3-week treatment was given with an interval of 2 days between weeks. The scores of Fugl-Meyer assessment scale (FMA) and National Institutes of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) were observed before treatment, 10 d and 21 d into treatment, and the blind evaluation was conducted after treatment.@*RESULTS@#On the 10 d and 21 d into treatment, the FMA scores in both groups were higher than those before treatment (P<0.01), and the NIHSS scores were lower than those before treatment (P<0.01). On the 10 d and 21 d into treatment, the FMA scores in the Jin's three-needle group were higher than those in the placebo needle group (P<0.05); on the 10 d into treatment, the NIHSS score in the Jin's three-needle group was were lower than that in the placebo needle group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups on judging the type of treatment (P>0.05), and the consistency with the real situation was poor (Cohen's kappa coefficient<0.20).@*CONCLUSION@#The standardized Jin's three-needle therapy could effectively improve the limb motor function and nerve function defect in stroke patients. The placebo control method used in this study shows good clinical operability and masking effect.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To observe the effects of tendon-regulating and stretching manipulation plus JIN's three-needle therapy for the shoulder on pain and shoulder joint function in subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS). Methods: Eighty patients with SIS were recruited and divided into a control group and a treatment group by the random number table method, with 40 cases in each group. The control group was given JIN's three-needle therapy for the shoulder, and the treatment group received additional tendon-regulating and stretching manipulation. The visual analog scale (VAS) score and constant-Murley score (CMS) were observed before and after the intervention, and the total effective rate was also observed. Results: The total effective rate was 92.5% in the treatment group versus 70.0% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The VAS score and CMS changed notably after treatment in both groups (P<0.05), and the improvements were markedly greater in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Tendon-regulating and stretching manipulation plus JIN's three-needle therapy for the shoulder can facilitate the relief of pain and the improvement of shoulder joint function in SIS patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of Jin's three-needle therapy on post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) and the effect on neuroelectrophysiology (event-related potentials). Methods: A total of 60 PSCI patients were selected and divided into a treatment group and a control group according to the method of random number table, with 30 cases in each group. The patients in the control group received routine treatment while the patients in the treatment group received additional Jin's three-needle therapy. The treatment for both groups lasted four weeks. Mini-mental state examination (MMSE) and Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) scores as well as amplitude and latency of potential 300 (P300) were adopted to compare the between-group results before and after treatment. Results: Before treatment, there were no significant differences (all P>0.05) in MMSE and MoCA scores, P300 latency and P300 amplitude between the two groups. After 4 weeks of treatment, the MMSE and MoCA scores and P300 amplitudes were improved in both groups, and the P300 latencies became shorter. The results showed significant intra-group and between-group differences (all P<0.05). Conclusion: Based on the routine treatment, Jin's three-needle therapy is effective for PSCI. The mechanism is probably through its regulation on the patients' neuroelectrophysiology.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To compare the differences in clinical effects on hyperlipidemia of turbid phlegm obstruction pattern/syndrome treated with the different Jin's three-needle therapies so as to provide a new approach and theoretic evidence for the clinical optimal scheme of acupuncture on hyperlipidemia. METHODS: A total of 90 patients were randomly divided into education group, electroacupuncture group and catgut embedding group (30 cases in each). The routine health education was given to the education group. On the base of the treatment as the education group, electroacupuncture was applied to the electroacupuncture group for 30 min each time, twice a week; and the catgut embedding was applied to the catgut embedding group at the same acupoints as the electroacupuncture group, once a week. The treatment was given consecutively for 8 weeks in each group. Before and after treatment, the obesity indices [weight, waistline, body mass index (BMI)], blood lipid indices[serum total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C)] and insulin resistance indices [fasting blood glucose(FBG), fasting plasma insulin(FINS), homeostasis model assessment-estimated insulin resistance (HOMA-IR)] were observed in the three groups before and after treatment. RESULTS: After treatment, in the electroacupuncture group and the catgut embedding group, the results of the obesity indices, e.g. weight, waistline and BMI, the levels of blood lipid, e.g.TC, TG, LDL-C and the insulin resistance indices, e.g. FINS and HOMA-IR were all obviously decreased compared with those before treatment (P0.05). The total effective rate was 90.0% in the catgut embedding group (27/30) and it was 83.3% (25/30) in the electroacupuncture group, either of them was better than 60.0% (18/30) in the education group , indicating the statistical significance (P<0.01, P<0.05). CONCLUSION: On the base of health education, either the catgut embedding therapy or electroacupuncture of Jin's three-needle treatment achieves the positive regulation on the abnormal lipid metabolism and insulin resistance. The hypoglycemic effect and the impro-ving effect in LDL-C and HDL-C of the catgut embedding therapy are superior to electroacupuncture.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the effects on the recovery of the motor and cognitive functions of the rats with permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (pMCAO) after treated with 's three-needle acupuncture at head acupoints combined with rota-rod training.@*METHODS@#A total of 38 male SD rats were randomized into 3 groups, named a sham-operation group (11 rats), a model group (13 rats) and a treatment group (14 rats). The electrocoagulation method was adopted to establish the model of pMCAO on the right cerebrum. Starting from the 1st day after successful modeling, acupuncture was applied to the "three points of intelligence", the "three points of temporal area" and the "three points of brain". Additionally, the rota-rod training was used. Acupuncture was given once a day and the training was three times a day. In the sham-operation group and the model group, empty grasp fixation was performed when acupuncture was applied in the treatment group, and there was no intervention at the rest of the time. There was 1 day of interval after consecutive 6 days of intervention. Totally, the intervention was for 3 weeks. After modeling, the brain section was collected from 3 rats of each group on the 1st day and was stained with TTC to observe the condition of cerebral ischemia. From day 1 to 7, the neurological function score was evaluated. The footprint analysis and rota-rod test were performed on day 1, 7, 14 and 21. The Morris water maze test was performed from day 22 to 26.@*RESULTS@#Compared with the sham-operation group, cerebral ischemia presented obviously, the score of neurological function was increased, the back front distances on the left were increased on day 1, 7 and 14 separately, the revolutions per minute (RPM) of the rota-rod were reduced at each of the above 4 time points, the latency of navigation trial was increased and the movement time percentage in Q3 quadrant of spatial probe trial was reduced in the model group (0.05), the score of neurological function was reduced on day 6, the back front distance on the left was reduced on day 14, RPM of the rota-rod were increased on day 14 and 21, the latency of navigation trial were reduced from day 23 to 25 and the movement time percentage in Q3 quadrant of spatial probe trial was increased in the treatment group (<0.01, <0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#'s three-needle acupuncture at head acupoints combined with rota-rod training improve the behavioral performance of pMCAO rats and promote the recovery of motor and cognitive functions.

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the effect of JIN’s three needle therapy plus mirror therapy for knee joint movement on lower-limb function of patients with hemiplegia after cerebral infarction.Method Seventy-four patients with hemiplegia after cerebral infarction were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 37 cases in each group. The treatment group was intervened by JIN’s three needle therapy plus mirror therapy for knee joint movement, while the control group was by mirror therapy for knee joint movement alone. After 4-week treatment, the Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) and modified Barthel Index (MBI) were adopted for evaluating motor function of the affected limb and the activities of daily living (ADL), the Functional Ambulation Category scale (FAC) for assessing the walking ability, and the Twichell-Brunnstrom Stages of Stroke Recovery for determining the stage of post-stroke hemiplegia. Result After the intervention, the FMA and MBI scores were significantly changed in both groups (P<0.05). The changes of FMA and MBI scores in the treatment group after the treatment were significantly different from those in the control group (P<0.05). After the treatment, there were significant between-group differences in comparing the FAC and Brunnstrom grading results (P<0.05).Conclusion JIN’s three needle therapy plus mirror therapy for knee joint movement is an effective approach in treating hemiplegia after cerebral infarction, and it can improve the lower-limb motor function and the ADL.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy and action mechanism of Jin’s three-needle acupuncture plus Long’s chiropractic tuina manipulations in treating cervical vertigo. Methods:By adopting a randomized controlled method, 80 eligible patients were randomized into an observation group of 41 cases and a control group of 39 cases. The control group was intervened by Jin’s cervical three-needle acupuncture plus acupuncture at the vertigo-pain points and Fengchi (GB 20); the observation group was by Long’s chiropractic tuina manipulations in addition to the treatment given to the control. For both groups, the intervention was given once a day, 7 sessions as a treatment course, with a 1-day interval after a course, for 2 courses in total. The therapeutic efficacy was evaluated after the first session and the second treatment course, at the 3-month and 6-month follow-ups. Results:After the first session, the recovery plus markedly effective rate of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P0.05); the 6-month follow-up study showed that the relapse rate was 5.0% in the observation group versus 21.6% in the control group, and the between-group difference was statistically significant (P<0.05); at the 6-month follow-up, the total relapse rate was 7.5% in the observation group versus 35.1% in the control group, and the inter-group difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). Conclusion:The two treatment protocols are both effective in treating cervical vertigo. However, due to its more significant efficacy, more efficient action and lower relapse rate compared to acupuncture alone, acupuncture plus tuina can be regarded as a verified protocol for cervical vertigo.
