ObjectiveTo observe the treatment efficacy of needling LIN’s three temporal acupoints in treating children with autism by using a randomized controlled study method.MethodSixty-eight patients with autism were randomized into an observation group and a control group. Because of dropouts and rejects, 33cases were finally recruited into the observation group, and 32 into the control group. The two groups both received speech training and special education. In addition, the control group received acupuncture at Shenting (GV24), Benshen (GB13), Sishenzhen (Extra), Emotional zone, Speech zone 1, Speech zone 2, and Speech zone 3; while the observation group received acupuncture at LIN’s three temporal acupoints based on the points selected in the control group except for Speech zone 3. Twisting needles and electroacupuncture were also applied in both groups. The treatment was performed once every other day, 10 sessions as a treatment course, with a 15-day interval between two courses, and the therapeutic efficacy was evaluated after 3 courses. Gesell test and Autism Behavior Checklist (ABC) were adopted for evaluation before and after the intervention.ResultBefore treatment, there were no significant between-group differences in comparing the social adaptation, speech and social intercourse ability from Gesell test and ABC score (P>0.05); after treatment,the social adaptation, speech, intercourse ability, and ABC scorewere significantly improved in both groups (P<0.01);there were no significant between-group differences in comparing the social adaptation and speech ability (P>0.05), while theimprovement of social intercourse ability and ABC scoreinthe observation group were more significant than thatinthe control group (P<0.05). ConclusionNeedling LIN’s three temporal acupoints possibly has a specialtreatment effect in improving social intercourse ability and abnormal behavior in autism patients.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of needling the meridian muscle regions in treating the lower limb spasm in spastic cerebral palsy.Method Eighty patients with spastic cerebral palsy were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 40 cases in each group. The two groups were both intervened by conventional rehabilitation. Besides, the treatment group was given acupuncture at the meridian muscle regions including Chengshan (BL 57) point and the point 1 cun above the upper margin of the Achilles-tendon attachment, while the control group was given acupuncture majorly at points from the Yangming Meridian of the affected lower limb. The modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), Composite Spasticity Scale (CSS), and Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) were evaluated before intervention and after 3 treatment courses.Result The MAS, CSS, and GMFM scores were significantly changed after intervention in both groups (P<0.01). After treatment, the MAS, CSS, and GMFM scores of the treatment group were significantly different from that of the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Needling the meridian muscle regions can effectively improve the lower limb spasticity in spastic cerebral palsy, and it can help correct clubfoot and enhance the gross motor function.

Objective To discuss the clinical characteristics and efficacy analysis of children with cerebral palsy and neuronal migration disorders (NMD) by retrospective analysis. Methods From June, 2005 to June, 2015, 32 children with cerebral palsy and NMD were en-rolled as NMD group, while 60 children with cerebral palsy with periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) as PVL group. Both groups received comprehensive rehabilitation for three months. Their clinical classification, complications of epilepsy or epileptiform discharges, the score of Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM), and development quotient (DQ) were compared, as well as the follow-up results of six months. Results There was significant difference in the clinical classification of cerebral palsy between two groups (χ2=24.529, P<0.001). The inci-dence of epilepsy and epileptiform discharges was higher in NMD group than in PVL group (χ2>4.605, P<0.05). After treatment, the score of GMFM improved with time in both groups (Ftime=6.850, P=0.010), and was significantly lower in NMD group than in GMFM group (Fgroup=29.885, P<0.001);the scores of DQ in all the functional areas improved with time in both groups (Ftime>25.041, P<0.001), and were signifi-cantly lower in NMD group than in GMFM group (Fgroup>32.347, P<0.001). Conclusion Children with cerebral palsy and NMD are charac-terized by mental retardation, epilepsy and spastic hemiplegia, and poor outcome.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of treatment of lung cancer with Bacillus Calmette-Guerin Polysaccharides nucleic acid (BCG-PSN) combined with Cyclophosphamide(Cy). Methods 130 mice were divided into three groups (A,B and C groups). Gruop A was further divided into four subgroups . Subgroup A-1 was given normal saline orally 0.25mg/10g?d -1 ; Subgroup A-2 was given levomisole PO. 0.25mg/10g?d -1 ; Subgroup A-3 was given BCG-PSN PO.0.325mg/10g?d -1 and subgroup A-4 was given BCG-PSN by intra-abdominal injection 0.25mg/10g?d -1 . Group B was given identical drugs with group A, after fifth day given 20% sheep red blood cell 0.2ml by intra-abdominal injection for five days . Gruop C divided into five subgroups;Subgroup C1-4 were given same drugs with group A,then given 0.4% Cy by subcutaneous injection 0.25mg/10g?d -1 from fifth day to tenth day.Subgroup C-5 was normal contral group, was given normal saline 0.25mg/10g?d -1 PO and subcutaneous injection 0.25mg/10g?d -1 .Results Oral administration alone or intra-abdominal injection in subgroup A-4 obviously enhanced the phagocytosis of macrophages.The subcutaneous injection of Cy could obviously decrease anti-tumour immunity, including activity of interleukin-2 (IL-2),natural killer(NK) cell, lyphocyte trasformation, and macrophages phagocytosis. BCG-PSN could increase and rehabilitate above anti-tumour immunological function. Conclusions Combinative treatment of BCG-PSN with Cy could remarkable enhance the immunocompetence.This experiment may provide a theoretical evidence for BCG-PSN combined with chemotheapeutic agents applied to treat the lung cancer.
