Successfully established model animals were treated by blood-letting puncture at twelve Jing-Well points of the hand, and/or by injecting mannitol into the caudal vein twice daily. Brain tissue was collected at 24, 48 and 72 hours after modeling, and blood was collected through the retinal vein before Evans blue was injected, approximately 1 hour prior to harvesting of brain tissue. Results showed that Evans blue leakage into brain tissue and serum nitric oxide synthase activity were significantly increased in model rats. Treatment with blood-letting punctures at twelve Jing-Well points of the hand and/or injection of mannitol into the caudal vein reduced the amount of Evans blue leakage into the brain tissue and serum nitric oxide synthase activity to varying degrees. There was no significant difference between single treatment and combined treatment. Experimental findings indicate that blood-letting punctures at twelve Jing-Well points of the hand can decrease blood-brain barrier permeability and serum nitric oxide synthase activity in rats following middle cerebral artery occlusion, and its effect is similar to that of mannitol injection alone and Jing-Well points plus mannitol injection.展开更多

Methods: 263 cases of radial keratotomy outpatients were divided into control group (n=49, 90 eyes) and treatment group (n=214, 412 eyes). Patients of control group were treated with 0.5% Chloramphenicol eye drops, 3 times daily, 1-2 drops/time, and with 0.5% Erythromycine eye ointment every night. In treatment group, patients were treated with acupoint and hand reflection area digital pressing method except with the same eye drops and eye ointment. Body acupoints used were Cuanzhu (BL 2), Yuyao (EX HN 4), Sizhukong (TE 23), Sibai (ST 2) and Taiyang (EX HN 5). The hand reflex areas used were Eye Area, Liver Area, Kidney Area, Spleen Area, Heart Area and Lung Area. Five days constituted a therapeutic course. Results: Following 3 courses (15 days) of treatment, the markedly effective rate and total effective rate of treatment group and control group were 74.51% and 38.89%, 94.17% and 66.67% respectively. There was a significant difference between two groups in the total effective rate (P<0.05), showing the therapeutic effect of treatment group being better than that of control group. Conclusion: Acupoint digital pressing is rather effective in treatment of myoporthosis post operation irritable symptoms and signs.展开更多
