Methods Sixty-one CRS patients were randomly divided into an acupoint application group (group A, 31 cases) and an electroacupuncture group (group B, 30 cases). Both sides of the spine and scapula were treated with collateral bloodletting, cupping, and acupoint application over Ashi points in group A. The following points received electroacupuncture in group B: Jiaji (夹脊 EX-B2), Fengchi (风池 GB 20), Jianjing (肩井 GB 21), Jianyu (肩髃 LI 15), Waiguan (外关 TE 5), Houxi (后溪 SI 3) and Dazhui (大椎 GV 14). Patients in the two groups were compared in terms of scores for total symptoms and signs, and the theraputic effect of each method was analyzed. Results Total score of symptoms and signs of the two groups were both more significantly improved compared to that before treatment (9.96 ± 2.02 vs 15.87 ± 1.84, P〈0.05 in group A; 10.02 ± 1.76 vs 13.59 ± 1.52, P〈0.05 in group B). The differences in two groups before and after treatment were 5.91 ± 1.95 in group A, 3.53 ± 1.68 in group B, they were statistically significant (P〈0.05). The total effective rate of group A [93.6% (29/31)] was better than that of group B [83.3% (25/30)], and the differences were statistically significant (P〈0.05). Conclusion Good therapeutic effects can be achieved in treating young CRS patients with collateral bloodletting, cupping, and acupoint application.展开更多

The clinical effect was observed after two courses of treatment. The observation data included clinical effect, the scoring comparison of main symptoms and signs before and after the treatment. Results Among 50 patients with chronic pelvic inflammation, 11 cases got clinically cured, 15 were markedly effective, and 20 effective and the total effective rate was 92.0%; dropping pain in the lower abdomen, abnormal leukorrhea and gynecological signs were significantly improved after the treatment (P〈0.05). Conclusion Abdominal acupuncture combined with Chinese herbal bag hot compress have the exact effect on the chronic pelvic inflammation.展开更多
