Objective To observe the time-effect relationship between acupuncture treatment and the absorption of cerebral hematoma and edema in the acute stage of cerebral hemorrhage to determine the optimal time for acupuncture intervention in cerebral hemorrhage.Methods Three hundred patients with cerebral hemorrhage in the acute stage were randomly allocated to treatment groups 1, 2, 3 and 4, and control group, 60 cases each. The control group received symptomatic treatment for regulating blood pressure, reducing intracranial pressure by dehydration, maintaining electrolyte balance, nourishing nerves and preventing and treating complications. The treatment groups were given acupuncture in addition. Treatment group 1 received acupuncture at 24 hrs after the attack; treatment group 2, at 72 hrs; treatment group 3, at one week; treatment group 4, at two weeks. Pre-/post-treatment hematoma size parameter difference value and cerebral peripheral edema grade parameters were observed in every group.Results There were statistically significant pre-/post-treatment differences in hematoma size and cerebral edema grade in every group (P<0.01,P<0.05). There were statistically significant post-treatment differences in hematoma size and cerebral edema grade between every treatment group and the control group (P<0.05). There were statistically significant post-treatment differences in hematoma size and cerebral edema grade between treatment group 1, 2 or 3 and treatment group 4 (P<0.05), between treatment group 1 or 2 and treatment group 3 (P<0.05) and between treatment groups 1 and 2 (P<0.05).Conclusions Acupuncture has a positive therapeutic effect in patients with cerebral hemorrhage in the acute stage. The earlier acupuncture intervention in the acute stage of cerebral hemorrhage, the more remarkable the effect.

Objective To observe the effect of acupuncture on the expression of nitricoxide synthase (NOS) in gastrointestinal tissues after operation for incomplete intestinal obstruction in rats, and to explore the mechanism of acupuncture in promoting the recovery of gastrointestinal motility. Methods Forty Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomized into treatment group 1, treatment group 2, model group 1, model group 2, and a normal control group, 8 rats in each group. The incomplete intestinal obstruction models were developed by using single ligation method in treatment groups and model groups. Afterwards, the treatment groups were intervened by acupuncture at Zusanli (ST 36) and Yanglingquan (GB 34), and rats in treatment group 1 and 2 were respectively dissected after 1-day and 2-day treatment. The rats in model group 1 and 2 were respectively dissected 1 d and 2 d after modeling. The morphological observation was performed on rat’s intestinal tissues, and the average diameter of the upper part of the obstructed intestine and the expression of NOS in gastrointestinal tissues were compared. Results The average ileocecal diameter after modeling was significantly different from that in the normal control group (P<0.05). There was a significant difference in comparing the ileocecal diameter between model group 1 and 2 (P<0.05). The ileocecal diameter in treatment group 1 was significantly different from that in treatment group 2 and model groups (P<0.05). The ileocecal diameter in treatment group 2 was insignificantly different from that in the normal control group (P>0.05). The NOS content in model groups was significantly different from that in the normal group (P<0.05). The NOS content in treatment group 1 was markedly different from that in model groups and treatment group 2 (P<0.05) after intervention. There were no significant inter-group differences in comparing NOS content (P>0.05). Conclusions Acupuncture can promote the recovery of gastrointestinal motility by regulating intestinal NOS content in rats after operation for incomplete intestinal obstruction.

Tracheoesophageal fistula is divided into congenital and acquired tracheoesophageal fistula in the children.The main treatment is surgery,but recurrent tracheoesophageal fistula and acquired tracheoesophageal fistula caused by corrosive substance are not suitable for surgery in the short term.Endoscopic interventional therapy has become a new way of treatment,closure of tracheoesophageal fistula using a coated stent in the trachea can win time for surgical treatment and the fistula may reach the natural healing.It is an effective way of treatment.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of fire needling plus Chinese herbal medicine in treating alopecia areata. Method Fifty patients with alopecia areata were randomized into a treatment group of 35 cases and a control group of 15 cases. The treatment group was intervened by fire needling plus Chinese herbal medicine, while the control group was by oral administration of Chinese herbal medicine alone. The clinical efficacies were compared after 3-month treatment.Result The total effective rate was 97.1% in the treatment group versus 73.3% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion Fire needling plus Chinese herbal medicine is an effective method in treating alopecia areata.
