Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of stage-based treatment of peripheral facial paralysis with Yifeng (TE 17) selected as the major point treated by different acupuncture methods.Method A total of 102 patients with peripheral facial paralysis were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 51 cases each. The treatment group was intervened by selecting Yifeng (TE 17) as the major point, treated with centro-square needling in the acute stage, triple needling in the resting stage, and proximal needling in the remission stage; the control group was intervened by ordinary acupuncture. The two groups were treated once a day, 5 d as a course of treatment. Before and after 3 treatment courses, the House Brackmann (HB) facial nerve grading scale and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) in those patients complicated with pain were observed, and the clinical efficacies were compared.Result The total effective rate and recovery rate were respectively 100.0% and 82.3% in the treatment group versus 86.3% and 60.8% in the control group, and the between-group differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The HB scores were significantly changed respectively after 1, 2 and 3 treatment courses in the two groups compared with the pre-treatment scores (P<0.05). The HB scores in the treatment group were significantly different from those in the control group respectively after 1, 2 and 3 treatment courses (P<0.05). The patients complicated with facial pain or headache presented significant differences in VAS score respectively after 1, 2 and 3 treatment courses in the two groups (P<0.05). In comparing the VAS score in the patients complicated with facial pain or headache, there were significant differences between the two groups respectively after 1, 2 and 3 treatment courses (P<0.05).Conclusion Stage- based treatment with Yifeng (TE 17) selected as the major point treated with different acupuncture methods can produce valid efficacy in treating peripheral facial paralysis.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of staging treatment with various acupuncture therapies mainly on Yifeng (TE17) point for the treatment of peripheral facial paralysis. Methods One hundred and two peripheral facial paralysis patients were randomly divided into trial group and control group, 51 patients in each group. The trial group was given acupuncture mainly on Yifeng point, by Yang needling(plum-blossom needling) for acute stage, Qi needling(concentrated triple-needling) for resting stage and Bang needling(lateral needling) for recovery stage. The control group was given conventional acupuncture. The treatment for the two groups was performed once a day, 5 continuous days constituted a course, and the treatment lasted 3 courses. Before treatment and after treatment for 1, 2, 3 course (s), facial nerve function scores were evaluated with House-Brackmann Grading Scale (HB) and the scores of pain in head and face were evaluated with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). And the clinical efficacy of the two groups was assessed after treatment. Results (1) After treatment for 3 courses, the cure rate and total effective rate of the trial group were 82.35%, 100.00%, and those of the control group were 60.78%, 86.27%, respectively. The differences between the two groups were significant (P <0.05). (2) After treatment, HB scores and VSA scores of patients with facial pain and headache in the two groups were improved after treatment (P < 0.05 compared with those before treatment), and the improvement in the trial group was superior to that in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Staging treatment with various acupuncture therapies mainly on Yifeng point is more effective for the treatment of peripheral facial paralysis than conventional acupuncture.

Objective This study aimed to clarify the anti-influenza virus activity of Bingyanqing(BYQ),as well as to explore the mechanism of BYQ in treating influenza through network pharmacology and experimental verification.Methods The impact of BYQ on mortality,lung index,and viral load in an influenza mouse model was detected.We collected the ingredients and targets of BYQ formula by searching databases including TCMSP,Swiss Target Prediction and consulting the literature.The"ingredients-common target"network for anti-influenza effect of BYQ was constructed using Cytoscape software.The protein-protein interaction(PPI)network was constructed using the STRING database and Cytoscape software,and the core targets were screened.Gene Ontology(GO)and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)enrichment analyses were performed for common targets.The effect of BYQ on reducing influenza-induced oxidative damage,the expression of antioxidant and pro-oxidant enzyme,P65 phosphorylation and nuclear factor E2-related factor 2(Nrf2)nuclear translocation in vivo were investigated.Results BYQ significantly reduced mortality,lung index,pulmonary viral load and lung injury in a mouse model of influenza.We obtained one hundred and ninety-three of BYQ active compounds,which corresponded to three hundred and thirty-eight targets.There are 180 influenza-related targets among them.Nine targets,including IκBα kinase α(CHUK),IκBα kinase γ(IKBKG),NF-κB p65(RELA),tumor necrosis factor(TNF)and interleukin 6(IL6),were identified as potential core targets.GO analysis indicated that BYQ is involved in several biological functions,including antibacterial and antioxidant stress responses.KEGG analysis revealed the involvement of several viral and immune-related pathways for BYQ in treating influenza,including herpes simplex virus,influenza A virus,TNFα and toll-like receptor pathways.In vivo studies showed that high-dose BYQ significantly reduced pulmonary malondialdehyde(MDA)levels(P<0.01)and increased total superoxide dismutase(SOD)activity(P<0.001)in a mouse mode of influenza compared to oseltamivir phosphate.The treatment group with the combination of BYQ&oseltamivir phosphate had lower levels of NADPH oxidase 2(NOX2)and 4(NOX4)(P<0.001),and higher levels of catalase(CAT)and glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4)(P<0.001)in the lungs than oseltamivir phosphate group.The combined treatment group showed more significant Nrf2 nuclear translocation(P<0.05)than the oseltamivir phosphate group.However,there was no significant difference in P65 phosphorylation levels between the combination treatment group and the oseltamivir phosphate group(P<0.05),but P65 phosphorylation levels in both groups were lower than in the model group(P<0.05).Conclusion BYQ exhibits significant anti-influenza virus activity,manifests a dual effect by inhibiting the synthesis of pro-oxidant enzymes and promoting the antioxidant system,thereby alleviates the oxidative stress damage caused by influenza.
