RESUMO
?AlM:To observe the clinical effects of thelacrimal fistula excision combined with double silicone intubation in the treatment of chronic dacryocystitis with lacrimal fistula.? METHODS: Totally 25 cases ( 25 eyes ) of chronic dacryocystitis with lacrimal fistula were allocated into two groups:the double silicone intubation group of 13 cases (13 eyes) received lacrimal fistula excision combined with double silicone intubation, and the routine group of 12 cases (12 eyes) received routine dacryocystorhinotomy, we analyzed the curative effect.?RESULTS: The double silicone intubation group had a cure rate of 92. 3% (12 eyes), a effective rate of 100%, compared with the routine group had a cure rate of 91. 7%( 11 eyes ) , a effective rate of 100%, there were no statistically significant difference between the two groups (P>0. 05).?CONCLUSlON:Lacrimal fistula excision combined with double silicone intubation has a same effect with routine dacryocystorhinotomy in the treatment of chronic dacryocystitis with lacrimal fistula, but less invasive, no scar, less pain, and meet the patients' esthetic needs.
RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the therapeutic effect of comprehensive therapeutic protocol of electroacupuncture combined with active-blood-and-dissolve-stasis herbs and rehabilitation training for cerebral infarction.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A multi-center randomized controlled trial was done, three hundred and twenty cases were divided into four groups: electroacupuncture combined with active-blood and dissolve-stasis herbs and rehabilitation training group (group A), electroacupuncture combined with rehabilitation training group (group B), herbs combined with rehabilitation training group (group C) and rehabilitation training group (group D), 80 cases in each group. The following two groups of acupoints were used alternatively in electroacupuncture treatment: the first group including Vasomotor Area, Jianyu (LI 15), Biguan (ST 31), Hegu (LI 4) and Taichong (LR 3); the second group including Motor Area, Quchi (LI 11), Yanglingquan (GB 34) and Shenshu (BL 23). 20 mL Xiangdan injection and 250 mL 5% glucose injection or 250 mL 0.9% sodium chloride injection were used by intravenous drip in herbs treatment once a day. The rehabilitation training was performed by the professional physical therapist. Each group was treated with corresponding treatment protocol. The therapeutic effect was evaluated by index of the mortality or disability rate 3 months after the onset of disease. The intention to treat analysis (ITT) was used in data.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The mortality or handicap rate 3 months after the onset of disease of four groups were 17.5% (14/80) in group A, 22.5% (18/80) in group B, 40. 0% (32/80) in group C, and 31.3% (25/80) in group D, respectively. The group A has a best therapeutic effect (vs group C, group D, both P<0.05), and there was no adverse event.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The combined application of electroacupuncture, active-blood and dissolve-stasis herbs and rehabilitation training is a better treatment for cerebral infarction in clinic.</p>
