Title: [Acupuncture at 7:00 a.m.-l1:00 a.m. division for treatment of stroke]. Author: Zhang HL, Zhang FM, Fan XF, Zeng Y. Journal: Zhongguo Zhen Jiu; 2007 Sep; 27(9):665-7. PubMed ID: 17926619. Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To observe clinical therapeutic effect of the needling method of selecting time on stroke. METHODS: One hundred and twenty cases of stroke were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, 60 cases in each group. The observation group were treated with acupuncture between 7:00-11:00 and the control group with acupuncture at any time. Their therapeutic effects, blood lipids and blood coagulation indexes were observed. RESULTS: The cured-markedly effective rate and the total effective rate were 53.3% and 93.3% in the observation group, which were significantly higher than 35.0% and 78.3% in the control group, respectively; total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) significantly decreased and HDL-C significantly raised, fibrinogen (FG) significantly reduced in the observation group (all P < 0.01), the lipids regulating and anti-coagulation effects were significantly better than the control group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Acupuncture between 7:00-11:00 achieves significant effect on stroke through increasing the lipids-decreasing and anticoagulation effects.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
