ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To optimize the therapeutic programs for periarthritis of shoulder treated with acupuncture, moxibustion and kinetohterapy with orthogonal design method adopted. METHODS: The orthogonal design table of L8 (2(7)) hierarchical principle was used to randomly divide 192 patients of periarthritis of shoulder into 8 groups, 24 cases in each one. Separately, 4 factors and each different 2 levels were adopted in treatment, named acupuncture timing (factor A: A, acute stage, A2 adhesion stage), acupoint combination (factor B: B, local acupoints, B2 local acupoints and distal acupoints along meridians), filiform needling and warm needling therapy (factor C: C1 acupuncture with filiform needle, CZ acupuncture with filiform needle and warm needling therapy) and positive functional exercise (factor D: D1 without positive functional exercise, D2 with positive functional exercise). The treatment was given once a day, 10 treatments made one session and 2 sessions were required totally. The time points of observation were the point after 1 session of treatment and after 2 sessions of treatment. The short-form McGill pain questionnaire (MPQ) and shoulder joint motor disturbance score were adopted for evaluation. RESULTS: In the orthogonal design analysis, taking the hierarchical factors into consideration, the age was considered as the main factor in the evaluation of shoulder pain and shoulder motor disturbance (P<0.01), and the shoulder function grade apparently impacted pain evaluation and the efficacy on shoulder motor disturbance (P<0.01). The best combination of 4 factors and 2 levels were A1B1CzD2 and A2BC2D2. SAS statistical analysis showed that at acute stage and adhesion stage, CZ Dz , meaning acupuncture with fifiform needling and warm needling therapy combined with positive functional exercise, is the main factor of the improvements of shoulder motor function (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: For periarthritis of shoulder at acute stage, the combined therapy of acupuncture at local acupoints, warm needling and positive functional exercise is adopted. At chronic stage, the combined therapy of acupuncture at local acupoints and distal acupoints, acupuncture with filiform needle and warm needling and positive functional exercise is the best program. Additionally, in clinical treatment, the patients' age, sex, shoulder joint function and duration of treatment should be considered comprehensively for the impacts on the efficacy.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To observe effects of heavenly stem-prescription of point selection of the needling methods of midnight-noon ebb-flow on motorial and neurological functional deficit of ischemic cerebrovascular diseases. METHODS: The patients were randomly divided into a Ziwu Liuzhu group and a channel acupoint selection group. In the channel acupoint selection group, Jianyu (LI 15), Quchi (LI 11), Waiguan (TE 5), Zusanli (ST 36) were selected, combined with selected acupoints by syndrome differentiation. In the Ziwu Liuzhu group, on the basis of the channel acupoint selection group, according to the principle "the acupoints of the yang-channel were opened at yang-day-yang-hour and the acupoints of the yin-channel were opened at yin-day-yin-hour", and acupoints were selected by the day-hour acupoint-opening method of the Ziwu Liuzhu Najia method in Zhenjiu Daquan. The patients in the both groups began to be treated at the Chen hour (7:00-9:00) or Si hour (9:00-11:00) in the morning, 10 times constituting one course. They were treated for 3 courses. Improvement of the motor function symptom cumulative score, Fugl-Meyer (FMA) and improvement of neurological functional deficit were investigated. RESULTS: The FMA score (36.13 +/- 21.80) after treatment was significantly lower than (73.50 +/- 21.53) before treatment (P<0.01) in the Ziwu Liuzhu group, and (54.43 +/- 20.89) after treatment was significantly lower than (62.27 +/- 22.91) before treatment (P<0.05) in the channel acupoint selection group; the neurological functional deficit score (15.40 +/- 9.34) after treatment was significantly lower than (27.17 +/- 10.81) before treatment in the Ziwu Liuzhu group, and (23.97 +/- 1.30) was lower than (27.97 +/- 7.72) before treatment in the channel acupoint selection group. After treatment, FMA and the neurological functional scores significantly improved in the Ziwu Liuzhu group as compared with those in the channel acupoint selection group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Ziwu Liuzhu Najia point-selection method can effectively improve both nervous function and motor function in the patient of ischemic cerebrovascular disease.

ABSTRACT

Some characteristics of the electricity load and prices are studied, and the relationship between electricity prices and gas (fuel) prices is analyzed in this paper. Because electricity prices are strongly dependent on load and gas prices, the authors constructed a model for electricity prices based on the effects of these two factors; and used the Geometric Mean Reversion Brownian Motion (GMRBM) model to describe the electricity load process, and a Geometric Brownian Motion(GBM) model to describe the gas prices; deduced the price stochastic process model based on the above load model and gas price model. This paper also presents methods for parameters estimation, and proposes some methods to solve the model.
