Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of the combination of Tuina and treadmill training on nerve regeneration after sciatic nerve transection.Methods A total of 60 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into control group,model group and treatment group equal-ly.The sciatic nerve was transected in the latter two groups and the epineurium suture was delayed four days.Then the treatment group ac-cepted Tuina and treadmill training once a day.The motor conduction velocity(MCV)of sciatic nerve was measured one and two months af-ter intervention in ten rats respectively,while the number of regenerated axons and Schwann cells was counted,and structures of sciatic nev-er were observed under electron microscopy. Results Compared with the model group, the MCV accelerated in the treatment group (P<0.05),the number of axons was not significantly different(P>0.05),and the number of Schwann cells increased two months after modeling (P<0.05),with less injury under electron microscopy.Conclusion Tuina combined with treadmill training can promote the regeneration of the injured peripheral nerve.
