		                        			This article introduces the clinical approach and acupuncture characteristics of the traditional Chinese medicine practitioner Professor YU Hai-Bo in treating paediatric cerebral palsy using the"Jianpi Yishen Triple-Needle Grouping Acupoints".Guided by the theory of growth and development of"viscera-meridian-brain"growth and development,Professor YU believed that"insufficiency of spleen and kidney"is the core pathogenesis of paediatric cerebral palsy,and the treatment concept of"treating from the spleen and kidney"was proposed.He inherited and innovated the triple-needle grouping acupoints therapy and establishing the system of"Jianpi Yishen Triple-Needle Grouping Acupoints".Before regular acupuncture,the abdomen and dorsum are pricked to freely regulate the middle energizer,and the upper limbs are selected as"Hegu(LI4),Waiguan(SJ5),Quchi[(LI11),three acupoints on the hand]+ Neiguan(PC6)";the lower limbs are selected as"Zusanli(ST36),Sanyinjiao(SP6),Taichong[(LR3),three acupoints on the foot];"Shenmai(BL62),Zhaohai(KI6),Yongquan(KI1)",spleen and kidney are regulated simultaneously,and the head acupoints include Sishencong(EX-HN1),intelligence tri-needling,cerebral tri-needling,temporal tri-needling,mind-calming needling and bilateral Fengchi(GB20).In order to regulate the spirit and benefit the intellect,the matching acupoints are modified according to the disease and the syndromes.At the same time,it is supplemented with music therapy and auricular point seed-pressing.Emphasis is placed on the simultaneous regulation of"child-parent-doctor"and"treating the person"rather than the"treating the disease".

		                        			Objective To summarize the acupoints and parameters commonly used in the treatment of vascular cognitive impairment(VCI)by electro-acupuncture(EA)through the visual data mining technique to provide a reference basis for clinical treatment.Methods The clinical studies of EA on the treatment of VCI were searched in CNKI,Wanfang,VIP,CBM,PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Library,web of science and other major databases.The literature is managed by Note Express and the database is established by Excel.The frequency of selected acupoints,frequency,meridian tropism,parameter frequency and frequency of used acupoints are counted.Factor analysis is carried out by SPSS 21.0 software.SPSS Modeler 18.3 software is used to analyze association rules and co-occurrence network,and the analysis results are visualized by Cytoscape 3.9.1 software.Results Finally,155 papers were included,containing 155 acupoint prescriptions and 157 parameter prescriptions.Acupoint prescriptions involved 100 acupoints with a total frequency of 856 times;parameter prescriptions involved 33 parameters with a total frequency of 788 times.Conclusion At present,there is a big difference between the clinical studies,and there is no recognized acupoint and parameter for EA treatment of VCI.By further summarizing the law of EA acupuncture point and parameter,the study has sorted out the law of commonly used acupoints,meridian tropism,compounding and parameter selection for EA treatment of VCI.It was concluded that the selection of acupoints mainly started from the three aspects of deficiency,phlegm and stasis,focusing on the combination of local and distal selection of acupoints,through the identification of internal organs and meridians,to achieve the simultaneous regulation of the heart,spleen and kidney,and to take into account both the symptoms and the root cause,and to play the roles of opening the orifices to wake up mind,calming mind and benefiting intellect,strengthening the spleen and tonifying the kidneys,and invigorating blood circulation to remove stasis.The parameters of EA are recommended to be sparse and dense wave,low frequency,as tolerated by the patient,30 minutes/times,1 time/day,5 times/week as the main combinations,which can provide a certain reference basis for clinical decision-making.

		                        			Multiple system atrophy(MSA)is a serious and rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disease.The currently used diagnostic criteria are the second edition of MSA diagnostic criteria published in 2008.Although widely recognized in clinical research, they lack sensitivity for early diagnosis of the disease.Reliable early diagnosis of MSA is particularly important for patient care and counseling, recruitment for clinical trials of disease-modifying therapies, and development and validation of diagnostic tools.To overcome the shortcomings of the second edition of the diagnostic criteria, the International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society developed a new version of diagnostic criteria for MSA, which was published in April 2022.This paper interprets the new MSA diagnostic criteria and examines the scientific research areas that need to be further explored in future research, which will be important in guiding the management of elderly patients and related research.

		                        			Objective To explore the effect of Kümmell's disease with kyphosis on the sagittal morphology of the spine-pelvis.Methods A retrospective analysis of 34 patients of Kümmell's disease with kyphosis(Kümmell group)admitted from August 2015 to September 2022,including 10 males and 24 females with an average age of(71.1±8.5)years old.A control group of 37 asymptomatic population aged(69.3±6.7)years old was matched.Spinal-pelvic sagittal parameters were measured on the anterior-posterior and lateral X-rays of the whole spine in the standing position,including segmental kyphosis(SK)or thoracolumbar kyphosis(TLK),thoracic kyphosis(TK),lumbar lordosis(LL),pelvic incidence(PI),pelvic tilt(PT),sacral slope(SS),sagittal vertical axis(SVA),T1 pelvic angle(TPA)and PI-LL.Vertebral wedge angle(WA)in Kümmell was mea-sured and differences in parameters among groups were analyzed and the relationship between spino-pelvic parameters and WA,SK were also investigated.Results TK,SK,PT,SVA,TPA and PI-LL in Kümmell group were significantly larger than those in control group(P<0.05),LL and SS in Kümmell group were significantly decreased than those in control group(P<0.05),and there was no significant difference in PI between two groups(P>0.05).In Kümmell group,WA(30.8±5.9)° showed a positive correlation with SK and TK(r=0.366,0.597,P<0.05),and SK was significantly correlated with LL and SS(r=0.539,-0.591,P<0.05).Strong positive correlation between LL and PI,SS,SVA,TPA,PI-LL were also confirmed in patients with Kümmell with kyphosis(r=0.559,0.741,-0.273,-0.356,-0.882,P<0.05).Conclusion Patients with Kümmell with kyphosis not only have segmental kyphosis,but also changes the overall spinal-pelvic sagittal parameters,including loss of lumbar lordosis,pelvic retrorotation,trunk forward tilt.The surgical treatment of Kümmell disease should not only pay attention to the recovery of the height of the collapsed vertebra,but also focus on the overall balance of the spine-pelvic sagittal plane for patients with kyphosis.
