Randomized Controlled Trial
[Randomized controlled trials for treatment of 30 cases of ordinary psoriasis by acupuncture and moxibustion].
To observe the therapeutic effect of acu-moxibustion for ordinary psoriasis, so as to find a better curative method for it. ⋯ Acu-moxibustion therapy is effective in the treatment of psoriasis and is remarkably superior to that of medication.
-
To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on the expression of ionotropic glutamate receptor (iGluR) subunits and their mRNAs in the lumbar segments of spinal cord in rats with neuropathic pain, so as to explore its underlying mechanism in relieving spinal hyperalgesia. ⋯ EA can significantly suppress pain reaction in rats with neuropathic pain probably through down-regulating the expression of lumbar spinal cord NR 2 B protein and NR 2 B mRNA.

Randomized Controlled Trial
[Effects of electroacupuncture of different acupoint groups on sevoflurane anesthesia in patients undergoing resection of supratentorial tumors].
To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) of different acupoint groups on the sevoflurane anesthetic requirement for resection of supratentorial tumors and the speed of post-operation recovery. ⋯ EA of both proximal and distant acupoints can reduce the expired concentration and MAC of sevoflurane during anesthesia maintenance, and accelerate the recovery after cease of anesthesia in supratentorial tumor resection patients.
-
To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on the expression of glucocorticoid (GC) mRNA and GC in the hippocampus, hypothalamus and pituitary in depression rats so as to study its mechanism underlying EA-resisting depression. ⋯ EA can effectively down-regulate adrenal CORT content and hippocampal GR mRNA expression and normalize the function of HPA axis negative feed reflex in the depression rats, which may contribute to its effect in relieving depression.

To observe the effect of electroacupuncture(EA) of bilateral "Futu" (LI 18) on the immunoactivity of substance P (SP), NK-1 receptor (R), cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1), 5-HT 1 AR and 5-HT2 AR in the cervical spinal dorsal horn of rats with neck incision pain, so as to explore its underlying mechanism in relieving incision pain. ⋯ EA-Futu (LI 18) can significantly suppress pain reaction of neck incision in the rat, which is closely associated with its effects in downregulating the expression of SP, NK-1 R, COX-1 and upregulating that of 5-HT 1 AR and 5-HT 2 AR in the spinal dorsal horn.
