OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the therapeutic effects of nape acupuncture combined with rehabilitative swallowing training for dysphagia caused by pseudobulbar palsy, and to compare it with rehabilitative swallowing training...OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the therapeutic effects of nape acupuncture combined with rehabilitative swallowing training for dysphagia caused by pseudobulbar palsy, and to compare it with rehabilitative swallowing training alone, and to observe the improvement in quality of life after the therapy.METHODS: One hundred patients were randomly divided into two groups: the rehabilitative swallowing training group(control group, n = 50) and the nape acupuncture combined with rehabilitative swallowing training group(experimental group,n = 50). Each group had 8 weeks' therapy, 5 times a week. Patients in the control group received rehabilitative swallowing training, while those in the experimental group received nape acupuncture therapy based on swallowing rehabilitation. The out-comes were assessed by the repetitive saliva-swallowing test(RSST), water swallow test(WST), standardized swallowing assessment(SSA), and a swallow quality-of-life questionnaire(SWAL-QOL). Correlations of onset age, onset frequency and lesion location with the efficacy of the acupuncture treatment were also observed.RESULTS: The scores for RSST, WST, and SSA in both groups were lower than before the therapy(P <0.001), although the changes were more marked in the experimental group than in the control group(RSST and WST, P < 0.005; SSA, P < 0.001). Both groups recorded changes in SWAL-QOL index after the therapy(P < 0.001); and the experimental group scored higher than the control group(P < 0.001). The efficacy of acupuncture was not correlated with location(P > 0.05), but was related to onset age(P < 0.05) and onset frequency(P < 0.01).CONCLUSION: Nape acupuncture combined with rehabilitative swallowing training has an effect on dysphagia caused by pseudobulbar palsy and improves quality of life.展开更多

Methods: An assessor-blinded, two-parallel-group, randomized controlled trial was conducted, and the patients with PBP-IS were recruited and randomly divided into two groups. Patients in the control group received oral aspirin (100 mg per day for 2 weeks). In addition to oral aspirin; patients in the treatment group received XNJ-AI at Fengchi (GB 20), once a day, for two weeks. The primary outcome was assessed by the water-swallowing test (WST). Thromboxane B2 (TXB2) and 6-keto-prostaglandin F1α (6-keto-PGF1α) in plasma were measured before and after the treatment. Results: In the treatment group, the percentage of swallowing function no less than grade 3 before and after the treatment was 32% and 88%, respectively; in the control group, it was 28% and 76% before and after the treatment, respectively; the difference after the treatment between the two groups was statistically significant (P〈0.05). There were statistical differences between pre- and post-treatment levels of plasma TXB2 and 6-keto-PGF1α in the two groups (both P〈0.05). After the treatment, there were significant differences in the levels of plasma TXB2 and 6-keto-PGF1α between the two groups (both P〈0.05). Conclusion: XNJ-AI at Fengchi (GB 20) can improve the patients' swallowing function and balance the levels of TXB2 and 6-keto-PGF1α in plasma.展开更多

文摘Objective: To prove the feasibility and validity of Xing Nao Jing acupoint-injection (XNJ-AI) at Fengchi (GB 20) for pseudobulbar palsy caused by ischemic stroke (PBP-IS). Methods: An assessor-blinded, two-parallel-group, randomized controlled trial was conducted, and the patients with PBP-IS were recruited and randomly divided into two groups. Patients in the control group received oral aspirin (100 mg per day for 2 weeks). In addition to oral aspirin; patients in the treatment group received XNJ-AI at Fengchi (GB 20), once a day, for two weeks. The primary outcome was assessed by the water-swallowing test (WST). Thromboxane B2 (TXB2) and 6-keto-prostaglandin F1α (6-keto-PGF1α) in plasma were measured before and after the treatment. Results: In the treatment group, the percentage of swallowing function no less than grade 3 before and after the treatment was 32% and 88%, respectively; in the control group, it was 28% and 76% before and after the treatment, respectively; the difference after the treatment between the two groups was statistically significant (P〈0.05). There were statistical differences between pre- and post-treatment levels of plasma TXB2 and 6-keto-PGF1α in the two groups (both P〈0.05). After the treatment, there were significant differences in the levels of plasma TXB2 and 6-keto-PGF1α between the two groups (both P〈0.05). Conclusion: XNJ-AI at Fengchi (GB 20) can improve the patients' swallowing function and balance the levels of TXB2 and 6-keto-PGF1α in plasma.

Method:The patients were allocated into an acupuncture group of 50 cases and a control group of 48 cases by completely random sampling, The acupuncture group received western medicine combined with acupuncture and the control group received simple Western medicine. Results: The effective rate was 92,0% in the acupuncture group and 62.5% in the control group, There was a very significant difference in curative effect between the two groups(P〈 0.01). Conclusion:The curative effect of combined acupuncture and medicine on pseudobulbar paralysis is significantly better than that of simple Western medicine.
文摘Objective: To investigate the efficacy of scalp acupuncture in combination with body acupuncture for treating pseudobulbar paralysis. Methods: Eighty patients were randomly divided into treatment and control groups, 40 cases each. The control group was treated by the routine method of Western medicine and the treatment group by combined scalp and body acupuncture on the basis of the former. The curative effect was evaluated after treatment in both groups. The influence of the treatment on mean blood velocity(MBV) in anterior, middle and posterior cerebral arteries was observed by transcranial Doppler(TCD) in both groups. Results: The total efficacy rate was 97.5% in the treatment group and 12.5% in the control group. The recovery rate was 75% in the treatment group and 0% in the control group. There was a significant difference between the two groups(P〈 0.01). TCD showed that blood velocity in cerebral arteries was significantly increased and the unbalanced stasis of the right and left cerebral blood flow changed in the treatment group. A comparison of MBV between pretreatment and posttreatment showed P 〈 0.01. Conclusion: Scalp acupuncture in combination with body acupuncture has a good effect on pseudobulbar paralysis.
