Clinical Observation of Eye Acupuncture in Treating Acute Attack of Asthma

摘要

Purpose: To observe the clinical efficacy eye acupuncture in the control of acute attack of deficiency-syndrome asthma in china alone. Method: Random cross-comparison grouping was used to observe the curative effects in eye acupuncture, body acupuncture and medication groups. Results and conclusion: Both clinical control rate and marked effective rate in the eye acupuncture were higher than those in the body acupuncture group (P < 0.01), but not significantly different from those in the medication group (P > 0.05); plasma cAMP content and cAMP/cGMP ratio rose and plasma cGMP content dropped in the patients after the treatment, indicating that eye acupuncture, like body acupuncture and medication, can increase sympathetic excitability and stimulate adrenocortical functions to remove bronchial spasm.
