The simple and effective controlled needle devices were provided for acupuncture clinical trial so that the double blind acupuncture trial could be conducted possibly. The basic structure of filiform needle was modified. The needle handle was designed as hollow, the upper 1/3 of needle body as hollow and the lower 2/3 part as solid. The upper and lower parts were linked with an elastic unit. At the same time, the needle pad was attached. With this method, the new sham-acupuncture device was designed and developed. The new sham-acupuncture device could simulate needle insertion, manipulation and the techniques of reinforcing and reducing, without inserting into the human body. This innovation lays the foundation for perfecting the clinical randomized controlled blind trial of acupuncture.

Objective To determine the correlation between high serum levels of homocysteine (Hcy), low folate and
vitamin B12 levels and the clinical index of neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), providing the reference for the diagnosis and treatment of neonatal patients with HIE. Methods Totally 94 cases of neonatal patients with HIE (32 mild, 40 moderate, and 22 severe) treated by Tianjin children’s hospital from April 2010 to April 2011 were enrolled. The control group was 20 cases of neonatal patients with neonatal swallowing syndrome at the same period. The serum levels of Hcy, folate and vitamin B12 were compared between four groups. Results There were significant differences in serum levels of Hcy, folate and vitamin B12 between four groups (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, there was higher level of Hcy and lower levels of folate and vitamin B12 in HIE groups. The Hcy levels increased with the deterioration of HIE in three HIE groups. The serum level of vitamin B12 was significantly lower in severe group than that in moderate group (P<0.05). Conclusion The serum Hcy level has certain reference value in tassessment of the severity of HIE. The supplementation of folate and vitamin B12 may play an active role in the process of the treatment in neonatal patients with HIE.
