Method: Depending on the orders of the patient's first visit, 120 cases were randomized into a treatment group (60 cases), receiving electroacupuncture, tuina and traction treatment, and a control group (60 cases), receiving electroacupuncture and tuina treatment. The treatment was done once a day, and 5 times constitute one course of treatment. A 2-day interval is set between the courses. The therapeutic effect was evaluated after 6 courses of treatment. Result: The total effective rate and recovery rate in the treatment group were 93.3% and 61.7%, respectively, whereas that of the control group were 78.3% and 31.7%, respectively, showing a significant statistical difference. Conclusion: Combined acupuncture, tuina and traction worked well for cervical spondylotic radiculopathy.展开更多

Methods: 216 patients were randomly divided into 2 groups according to numeric representation, 108 cases in the treatment group were treated by needle pricking therapy plus rotating pulling manipulation, and 108 cases in the control group were treated by rotating pulling manipulation. The peak systolic blood velocity (Vpeak), end diastolic blood velocity (Vmin), pulsatile index (PI) and resistant index (RI) of the bilateral vertebral arteries (VA) and basilar arteries (BA) were examined by transcranial doppler sonography (TCD). The values of whole blood apparent viscosity and plasma viscosity of both groups were recorded. The indexes before and after treatment of both groups were compared. Results: The therapeutic effects of the above-mentioned indexes of the treatment group were significantly superior to those of the control group (P〈0.05). In comparison with pre-treatment, the whole blood apparent viscosity (high, medium and low shear rates) and plasma viscosity of the treatment group post-treatment were obviously reduced (P〈0.01, P〈0.05). Conclusion: Needle pricking therapy combined with pulling-rotating manipulation can significantly improve VATCS patients' clinical symptoms, which may be closely related to its effects in lowering vascular blood resistance and blood viscosity and increasing cerebral blood supply.展开更多

Method: Altogether 146 cases were randomized into a group of acupuncture plus tuina (observation group) (70 cases), an acupuncture group (control group Ⅰ) (38 cases) and a tuina group (control group Ⅱ) (38 cases). Result: The recovery rate in the observation group, control group I and control group Ⅱ were 92.1%, 68.4% and 65.8% respectively; there was a significant statistical difference between the observation group and two control groups (P〈0.01); and there was no significant statistical difference between the two control groups (P〉0.05). Conclusion: Acupuncture plus tuina can alleviate the patients' condition in a faster and better way.展开更多

The common treatmentmethods include traction, tuina, acupuncture andmedication. However, psychological factors, suchas anxiety, depression or fear are often neglectedduring the treatment. The authors investigated theeffect of combined psycho- therapy, acupunctureand tuina on the cervical spondylosis.展开更多

Method: All 120 cases were randomly allocated into an observation group and control group. Then the immediate effects and relapse rates after 6 months in both groups have been observed. Results: The short-term effect in the observation group superior to the control group (P0.05) and the relapse rate after 6 months in the observation group was significantly lower than the control group (P0.05). Conclusion: Manipulation can obtain good short-term and long-term effect for cervical spondylotic radiculopathy in adolescence.展开更多

Methods: au oi 216 cases with stiff neck were randomly allocated into a tuina group (110 cases) and a control group (106 cases). The patients in the tuina group were treated with "Three Parts, Four Points, Five Manipulation" tuina therapy, while those in the control group were treated with pucturing Wailaogong (Ex-UE 8), Houxi (SI 3), Jianjing (GB 21) and Ashi points in the affected side, Once a day, and 3 times constitute one treatment course. The effect was observed after 2-course treatments. Result: The effective rate in the tuina group and the control group was 93.64% and 83.02%, respectively, and there was statistical difference between the two groups (P 〈 0.05). Conclusion: The tuina therapy of "Three Parts, Four Points, Five Manipulations" is better than simple acupuncture therapy in treating stiff neck.展开更多
