Objective:To investigate the distribution law of TCM syndromes in DPN patients with different TCM syndromes and their correlation with neuroelectrophysiological indexes.Methods:The general data of 252 DPN patients in Nanchong Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital from October 2021 to October 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, and they were divided into 139 cases of primary deficiency syndrome group and 113 cases of excess in superficiality group according to TCM syndrome type. The distribution of TCM syndromes in DPN patients was observed, nerve electrophysiological indicators were detected, the differences of nerve electrophysiological indicators among patients with different TCM syndromes were compared, and the correlation between TCM syndromes distribution and nerve electrophysiological indicators in DPN patients was analyzed.Results:Among 139 patients of DPN with primary deficiency syndrome, there were 56 cases of qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome, 44 cases of yin deficiency and blood stasis syndrome, 39 cases of liver and kidney deficiency syndrome; among 113 cases of excess in superficiality syndrome group, 42 cases of phlegm-dampness blocking collaterals syndrome, 37 cases of blood stasis blocking collaterals syndrome, and 34 cases of damp-heat blocking collaterals syndrome. There was no significant difference in the general data of patients with different TCM syndrome types ( P>0.05). The MCV and SCV of the median nerve, common peroneal nerve, and ulnar nerve in patients with primary deficiency syndrome group were lower than those in the excess in superficiality syndrome ( P<0.001), and the MCV and SCV of the median nerve, common peroneal nerve, and ulnar nerve in patients with qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome, yin deficiency and blood stasis syndrome, and liver and kidney deficiency syndrome sequentially decreased ( P<0.01); there was no statistical significance ( P>0.05) in MCV and SCV between the three types of patients in the excess in superficiality group. Point-biserial correlation analysis results showed that DPN patients with primary deficiency syndrome had significant correlation with MCV and SCV ( P<0.05), while DPN patients with excess in superficiality syndrome had no significant correlation with MCV and SCV ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome is the most common among DPN patients with primary deficiency syndrome. Compared with patients with excess in superficiality group syndrome, MCV and SCV of patients with primary deficiency syndrome are at a lower level, and the TCM syndrome types of DPN patients are closely related to nerve conduction velocity.

Objective To explore the functional improvement effect of acupuncture and moxibustion therapy of traditional Chinese medicine(mainly acupuncture on the three yang meridians of the hand,moxibustion on the governor vessel,and moxibustion through drugs)on cervical spondylosis of wind cold blocking collateral type.Methods 120 patients with wind cold obstruction type cervical spondylosis admitted to our hospital from July 2021 to July 2023 were randomly divided into two groups,with 60 cases in each group,using a random number table method.The control group was treated with conventional cervical traction,while the observation group was treated with traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture and moxibustion on the basis of the control group(mainly acupuncture at the hand Sanyang meridian+moxibustion at the governor's meridian+moxibustion through drugs).Compare the TCM syndrome scores,NDI,HO-1,LpPLA2,clinical efficacy,adverse reactions,hospitalization costs,and duration between two groups.Results After 4 weeks of treatment,the effective rate of disease in the observation group with wind cold obstructing cervical spondylosis(96.67%)was higher than that in the control group(83.33%),while the traditional Chinese medicine syndrome score,NDI score,HO-1,LpPLA2 in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).No adverse reactions were observed in both groups.Conclusion Traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture and moxibustion therapy(mainly acupuncture of the three yang meridians of the hand,governor vessel moxibustion,and herbal penetration moxibustion)has significant clinical effect in the application of cervical spondylosis of wind cold blocking collateral type,which can effectively improve clinical symptoms and biochemical indicators,promote the rehabilitation of cervical function,and has high safety.
