Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of cervus and cucumis polypeptide combined with Duhuo Jisheng Decoction Jiaji pain point injection in the treatment of lumbar intervertebral disc herniation. Methods Totally 68 cases of patients with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation were randomly divided into treatment group (34 cases) and control group (34 cases). Both groups were given Duhuo Jisheng Decoction orally besides basic treatment, and the treatment group received cervus and cucumis polypeptide Jiaji pain point injection additionally. Both groups were in a course of 10 days and treated for two courses. The clinical symptoms, visual analog pain scale (VAS), and Oswestry disability index (ODI) of the two groups were observed and compared among those before treatment, after one and two courses of treatment. Results Compared with the pretreatment of the same group, the VAS and ODI scores were lower after the first and second courses of treatment (P<0.05). After one and two course of treatment, VAS and ODI of the treatment group were lower than the control group (P<0.05, P<0.01). After one course of treatment, the total efficiency of treatment group was 91.2%(31/34), while the control group was 70.6%(24/34);after two courses, the total efficiency were respectively 100%(34/34) and 85.3%(29/34);the treatment group was better than control group during the same period (P<0.05). Conclusion Cervus and cucumis polypeptide combined with Duhuo Jisheng Decoction Jiaji pain point injection has good clinical efficacy in the treatment of lumbar intervertebral disc herniation.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of acupoint selection by heavenly stems on eosinophils(EOS) in guinea pigs with asthma.Methods Forty-eight guinea pigs were randomized into four groups: group A(timely electroacupuncture at the period of the day from 3 p.m.to 5 p.m.),group B(un-timely electroacupuncture at the period of the day from 9 a.m.to 11 a.m.),group C(model group) and group D(normal control group).Asthma was induced by chicken ovalbumin in groups A,B and C.The hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining method and terminal-deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated nick end labeling(TUNEL) method were applied in the pathological and quantitative observation of eosinophils(EOS) in lung slices.Results The number of EOS was increased in model group(P
