RESUMO
@# Objective To explore the effect of Tuina combined with treadmill training on nerve regeneration after sciatic nerve transection. Methods Ninty-six Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into normal group (n=32), model group (n=32) and treatment group (n=32). The sciatic nerve was transected and the epineurium was sutured in the latter two groups. The treatment group was given Tuina manipulation and treadmill training once a day. Eight rats from each group were detected their sciatic nerve conduction velocity (NCV), the number of axons and Schwann cells (SCs) two, three, four and eight weeks after intervention. Results Compared with the model group, the NCV accelerated in the treatment group four and eight weeks after intervention (P<0.05); while the number of axons was significantly different two and four weeks after intervention (P<0.05), and the number of SCs was not very different between the treatment group and the model group after intervention (P>0.05). Conclusion Tuina combined with treadmill training may promote the regeneration of peripheral nerve after injury in rats.
RESUMO
@#In this paper, 6 kinds of SCI-indexed international rehabilitation journals and all the articles published in 3 kinds of China Rehabilitation Source Journals in recent 1 year were counted. This article compared the difference of research methods and topics of the direction between our country and foreign countries were compared, analyzed the basic principles of rehabilitation medicine and influencing factors about the topics, and the future trends in rehabilitation research.
RESUMO
Objective: To observe the clinical effects of a modified Tuina method in the treatment of childhood diarrhea. Methods: Thirty children with diarrhea of spleen deficiency were treated by Four-Step Tuina(treatment group); and control group was treated with routine Tuina methods. The scale of children diarrhea was used as an objective index for therapeutic effect evaluation. Results: After treatment, the scale was 1.4±1.92 in treatment group and 3.3±3.45 in control group; the statistical analysis showed that there was a difference between the scales; the treatment group had better effects than control group, in another word, the Four-Step Tuina was quite effective for children diarrhea. Conclusion: Tuina has positive effects on children diarrhea of spleen deficiency, which provides evidences for the standardization of clinical therapeutic effects.
RESUMO
Evidence-based medicine (EBM), which aims to get the best evidence from medical research, is a growing international movement in health care. Because of this new shift in medical practice, great attention should be paid to how to introduce EBM into Chinese Tuina, and this is a good opportunity for the development of Chinese Tuina. To adopt EBM will be beneficial to developing Chinese Tuina, improving clinical research, renewing education mode and getting more academic achievement. So it is necessary to establish a new experimental methodology combined with EBM in order to get great progress in Chinese Tuina.
