Chinese Acupuncture & Moxibustion 2014;34(7):627-630
OBJECTIVETo verify the clinical efficacy on post-stroke dysphagia treated with acupuncture at Lianquan (CV 23).
METHODSOne hundred and eighty patients were randomized into an acupuncture A group, an acupuncture B group and a rehabilitation group, 60 cases in each one. On the basis of the conventional medication, in the acupuncture A group, acupuncture was applied at Lianquan (CV 23); in the acupuncture B group, acupuncture was applied at Hegu (LI 4) and Neiguan (PC 6) and in the rehabilitation group, the swallowing rehabilitation training was adopted. The treatment was given once a day, 5 times a week, and the 4 weeks of treatment was required in all of the groups. The national institute of health stroke scale (NIHSS) and TV X-ray fluoroscope swallowing scale (VFSS) were used to evaluate neurologic deficit and swallowing function before and after treatment in the patients of each group. The morbidity of pneumonia and clinical efficacy were compared among the groups.
RESULTSThe scores of NIHSS and VFSS were improved apparently after treatment in the patients of the three groups (all P < 0.05) and the results in the acupuncture A group were superior to those in the other two groups (all P < 0.05). The morbidity of pneumonia in the acupuncture A group was lower than that in the acupuncture B group and the rehabilitation group [3.3% (2/60) vs 6.7% (4/60), 8.3% (5/60), both P < 0.05]. The effective rate in the acupuncture A group was better than that in either of the other two groups [95.0% (57/60) vs 81.7% (49/ 60), 75.0% (45/60), both P < 0.05].
CONCLUSIONOn the basis of the conventional medication, acupuncture at Lianquan (CV 23) effectively improves the swallowing function, relieves neurological deficit and reduces the morbidity of pneumonia in the patients of post-stroke dysphagia.

Aim To explore the cardiac cytokine expression in rat model of myocardial calcium overload, and the intervention from diltiazem.Methods The intracellular Ca~(2+) overload was induced by the isolated rat heart subjected to 5 min Ca~(2+) depletion and 30 min Ca~(2+) repletion (Ca~(2+) paradox) by the Langendorff technique.There were five groups in this study, including Ca~(2+) overload group, normal control group, Ca~(2+) depletion control group, Ca~(2+) overload-diltiazem group, and Ca~(2+) depletion-diltiazem group.The views of myocardial pathology and ultrastruction were observed by electron microscope and light microscope respectively. The cardiac intracellular [Ca~(2+)]_i was detected by atom spectrophotometer. The expression of TNF-α, IL-1β, L-6, TGF-β1, and IL-10 was detected by RT-PCR method.Results In Ca~(2+) overload group, few inflammatory cells were found in myocardium under the light microscope. And the views of electron microscope presented that cardiocyte membranes, nucleolus, and mitochondria were disorganized obviously.Compared with normal control group, the inflammatory cytokines as TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 were increased significantly whereas there was nearly no difference of the expression of TGF-β1 and IL-10 in Ca~(2+) overload group.Ca~(2+) overload-diltiazem group showed that TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 were decreased significantly. There were no statistical differences in the structure of myocardium, intracellular [Ca~(2+)]_i, and cardiac cytokines expressions in the three control groups, including normal control group, Ca~(2+) depletion control group and Ca~(2+) depletion-diltiazem group.Conclusions Instead of TGF-β1 and IL-10, the expression of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 is increased obviously in myocardium of calcium paradox model. Diltiazem can inhibit the cardiac expression of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 induced by myocardial calcium overload.
