    Abstract:
    UNLABELLED: OBJECTIVE To observe and prove clinical therapeutic effect of Chinese drugs acupoint injection therapy on functional and mild arterial low-level blood supply erectile dysfunction (ED). METHODS: According to randomized and controlled method, 150 cases of functional and arterial low-level blood supply erectile dysfunction were divided into 3 groups, a Chinese drugs acupoint injection group, a saline acupoint injection and a Huichun Ruyi capsules group, 50 patients in each group. They were treated by acupoint injection of Danshen Injection and Chaihu Injection, acupoint injection of saline into Guanyuan (CV 4), Zuwuli (LR 10) and Huiyin (CV 1), and oral administration of Huichun Ruyi capsules, respectively. The changes of II EF-5 score, symptoms and signs, serum sexual hormones, Coprus Spongiosum PSV before and after the treatment were observed and compared. RESULTS: The total effective rate was 92.0% in the Chinese drugs acupoint injection group, 84.0% in the saline acupoint injection group, and 66.0% in the Huichun Ruyi capsules group, with significant or very significant differences among the 3 groups (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), and a very significant difference was shown in changes of II EF-5 score and Corus Spongiosum PSV before and after the treatment in the Chinese drugs acupoint injection group (P < 0.01), which were better than those in the saline acupoint injection group and the Huichun Ruyi capsules group (P < 0.05). No significant changes were found in levels of testosterone (T), follicule-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteotropic hormone (LH) prolactin (PRL) before and after the treatment in the 3 groups (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: Acupoint injection of Danshen Injection and Chaihu Injection has a definite curative effect on functional and arterial low-level blood supply ED. This therapy can raise II EF-5 score obviously and improve Corus Spongiosum PSV. The total effect of Chinese drugs acupoint injection group is better than that of saline acupoint injection or Huichun Ruyi capsules.
