Objective:To evaluate the clinical effects of warm needling for scapulohumeral periarthritis (SP). Methods:Eighty-six patients with SP due to wind, cold and dampness in conformity with the research criteria were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group. The control group was given the routine acupuncture treatment and the observation group was treated by warm needling. The treatment was given once every day and ten sessions made one course. After two courses, the therapeutic effects and the changes in the scores of visual analogue scale (VAS) were observed. Results:After treatment, VAS scores were statistically different from those before treatment in the two groups (P<0.05); and VAS score was lower in the observation group than that in the control group, with a statistical difference between the two groups (P<0.05). The curative and remarkable effective rate was 74.4% in the observation group and 44.2% in the control group. The difference in the curative and remarkable effective rate was statistically significant between the two groups (P<0.01). But, the difference in the total effective rate was not statistically significant between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion:The warm needling has the dual effect of acupuncture and moxibustion in the treatment of SP due to wind, cold and dampness, and its clinical effect is better than routine acupuncture treatment.

SIRT3, SIRT4 and SIRT5 are located in mitochondria and also known as mitochondrial sirtuins. They play important roles in regulating many cellular functions including cell survival, cell cycle or apoptosis, DNA repair and metabolism. Mitochondrial sirtuins are involved in the protection of mitochondrial integrity and energy metabolism under stress regulating the expression of neurotransmitter receptors, neurotrophins, extracellular matrix proteins and various transcription factors, thus involved in epileptogenesis triggered by both genetic or acquired factors. Here we review research progress on the actions of mitochondrial sirtuin in epilepsy; and discuss the challenges and perspectives of mitochondrial sirtuin as a potential therapeutic target for epilepsy.
