By analyzing the acupuncture taboos in Neijing (Internal Classic) on clinical application of mind conduction of acupuncture therapy in going against the actual situation, astronomy and others, it is found that the relevant acupuncture taboo implies many subtle mysteries of human body, qi, mind and astronomy, which have not been discovered yet in modern science and are very significant in qi protection. In Neijing, the acupuncture physicians have been highly required in the mind treatment, in which, accurately regulating qi circulation is the target in the treatment. The mind conduction is used for qi circulation to accomplish accurately the reinforcing or reducing in the deficiency or excess condition. All of the taboos are provided to normalize the accuracy of reinforcing and reducing technique of acupuncture therapy and avoid the damage of qi in human body. Hence, those taboos must be obeyed so as to prevent from serious consequence and ensure the safety of this acupuncture therapy.

By analyzing the articles in Huangdi Neijing (Inner Canon of Yellow Emperor), combined with the verification of consciousness in vitro in clinic and modern science, it is found Huangdi Neijing has made special requirements of treating spirit for physicians using spirit-qi acupuncture. The physicians consciously use different methods to motivate the spirit of physician and patients, especially patients, to transform it to the physiological effect of patients, which could minimize the psychological factors that make negative influence on treatment; also the psychotherapy is considered as the most important principle of treating spirit. The reinforcing and reducing methods in later generations, mainly lifting-thrusting twirling method, unintentionally lead patients into a basic or strong status of treating spirit or keeping spirit during the process of achieving stimulation and needle sensation. To partially perform the special role of treating spirit for physicians in Huangdi Neijing on patients could cause the chages including patient-based using spirit to move qi. It not only inspires the body's natural resistance to disease and self-healing, but also motivates the self-protection mechanism of keeping spirit.

OBJECTIVETo compare the efficacy between the reducing technique with consciousness conduction involved and the reducing technique by needle rotation of acupuncture in the treatment of lunbar strain of cold damp pattern.

METHODSOne hundred and eight patients were randomized into group A and group B, 54 cases in each one. Ashi points were the main points in the two groups. In the group A, the reducing technique with consciousness conduction involved was applied to ashi points. In the group B, the reducing technique with needle rotation was adopted. Cupping and the irradiation specific electromagnetic wave apparatus (TDP) were used in the two groups as the adjuvant therapy. The treatment was given once every two days, and 10 treatments made one session. The treatment stopped till pain disappeared. The efficacy was evaluated in 1 session of treatment. The numerical rating scale (NRS) and the Oswestry disability index (ODI) were observed before and at the end of treatment. NRS of acupuncture itself was observed at the end of treatment. The recurrence rate was compared between the two groups.

RESULTSThe curative and remarkably effective rate was 87.0% (47/54) in the group A, better than 63.0% (34/54) in the group B (P < 0.01). After treatment, NRS and ODI scores were all reduced as compared with those before treatment in the two groups (both P < 0.01). The results in the group A were better than those in the group B (both P < 0.01). Three months after treatment, the recurrence rate was 3.8% (2/52) in the group A, better than 17.7% (9/51, P < 0.05) in the group B. Pain induced by acupuncture itself was mild in the two groups and NRS score in the group A was lower than that in the group B (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONAcupuncture with the consciousness conduction involved is superior to the reducing technique with needle rotation in the treatment of lumbar strain of cold damp pattern, in which, pain induced by acupuncture itself is much milder than that induced by the reducing technique with needle rotation.

[Objective]To investigate etiopathogenisis,modus operandi and rehabilitation in treatment of bone nonunion and residual deformity (cubitus valgus) after humeral lateral condyle fractures in children. [Method]The author retrospective summarized a total of 27 patients diagnosed with humeral lateral condyle fracture follow with bone nonunion and/or cubitus valgus consecutive enrolled in Children’s Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from 2001 to 2006,including 19 cases of male,8 cases of female,16 cases of right humeral lateral condyle fracture and 11 cases of left. The mean age at injured for all the patients (n =27) was 5.6 yr (range 3-10 yr).The mean age at suigical operation for all the patients (n =27) was 9 yr (range 5-14 yr).The average time from injury to operation was 2.8 yr (range 8mon-10 yr).There were three modus operations including direct normal position internal fixation of 7 cases,open reduction following os illium bone graft internal fixation of 11 cases,distant humerus varus wedge shape cut orthopaedic for 9 cases.[Result]Thirteen patients were followed up ranging from 6 month to 2 years,and 14 patients over 2 years. All the patients were achieved union for 8 to 16 weeks after surgery. Elbow deformity had been corrected and function of elbow joint had been recoverd satisfactorily. All of them,excellent rerult were found in 13 cases,good in 11 cases,and poor in 3 cases,the excellent and good rates was 88.9%. None of the cases happened with osteonecrosis,traumatic arthritis and myositis ossificans.[Conclusion]It is common that delay treatment of humeral lateral condyle fractures in children can result in bone nonunion and residual deformity (cubitus valgus) and it is difficult for treatment. Corresponding surgical treatment with different condition and early exercise can improve the appearance and function of elbow joint.

Incidence of childhood is very low.6 cases of childhood aphasia were analysised in the pa- per.It show that some speech symptoms and theraputic prediction of childhood aphasia are quite different from those of adult aphasia.Because most of them are preschool children,they can not be evaluated with adult aphasia test.

Obejective To explore the correlation of Orexin A and respiratory drive in chronic obstructive pulmo-nary disease (COPD) patients. Methods Pulmonary function was tested in 30 stable COPD patients and 20 normal healthy adults. Plasma orexin A level was measured with a radioimmunoassay kit. The correlation of Orexin A with BMI, age, BDI, FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC, MEP, MIP, P0.1 in COPD patients was analyzed. Results Plasma Orexin A levels in patients with COPD group(1.87±0.43)ng/L was higher than those in the control group(1.49±0.19)ng/L, P<0.01. Plasma Orexin A lev-els in patients with COPD correlated negatively with FEV1(r=-0.389,P < 0.05),and correlated positively with P0.1(r=0.728,P<0.01). Conclusion Plasma orexin A in COPD patients increased which may be caused by smoking and hyper-capnia. Orexin A may play a crucial role in regulating respiratory drive in COPD patients.

Objective To systematically the efficacy of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) conbined with percutaneous microwave coagulation therapy (PMCT) in treatment of advanced liver cancer.Methods A search was performed by retrieving the domestic and foreign literature database,including WanFang Data,VIP,CNKI,PubMed,Cochrane Library,CBM,EMBASE,Medline,between January 2005 and May 2015.These documents were about the analysis of the efficacy of TACE combined with PMCT in treatment of advanced liver cancer,including complete response(CR),partial response(PR),total effective rate,the levels of AFP declining,1,2,and 3 year survival rate and all the trials must be randomized controlled trials.Meta-analyses were conducted using the Cochrane Collaboration's RevMan 5.2 software.Results Fourteen documents were retrieved,including 989 patients,conbined treatment group 470 patients,simple treatment group 519 patients.The results of Mete-analysis shows that the total effective rate of TACE combined with PMCT is higher than TACE alone in treatment of advanced liver cancer.AFP declining ＞ 50％ of TACE combined with PMCT more obvious than TACE alone.1,2,and 3 year survival rate of TACE combincd with PMCT higher than TACE alone.These differences were statistically significant.Conclusion TACE combined with PMCT might be more effective than TACE alone in treatment of advanced liver cancer.
