py can increase the release of endogenous opioid peptide, reduce the secretion of 5-HT, DA, SP, and have a significant effect in treating stroke related headache.
To observe the effect of round magnetic needle tapping along meridians on the back plus acupuncture at "Qi Shen Zhen"（including Shenting ［GV24］, Benshen ［GB13］, Sishenchong ［EX-HN1］）, and Baihui （GV20）, Shenmen （HT7） on gastrointestinal function, daily living activities and anxiety status in post-stroke anxiety disorder (PSAD) patients.
Fifty-seven PSAD patients were randomly divided into acupuncture group (28 cases) and medication group (29 cases). On the basis of routine treatment and physical therapy, patients of the acupuncture group were treated by applying round magnetic needle to mildly tapping the second line→the first line of the Bladder Meridian→Jiaji acupoints→Governor Meridian on the back from outside to the inside in sequence for 20 min, followed by needling GV24, GV20, GB13, EX-HN1 and HT7, respectively, with the needles retained for 30 min after one minute's twisting. The treatment was conducted once daily, 5 times a week, for 6 weeks. Patients of the medication group were asked to take Escre obviously lower(
<0.05), and the BI score at the 6th week was notably higher in the acupuncture group than in the medication group (
<0.05). No significant diffe-rence was found between the two groups in the therapeutic effect of anxiety state (
>0.05). The acupuncture group had fewer adverse reactions than the medication group (
<0.05).
The round magnetic needle tapping plus "Qi Shen Zhen" needling has a significant therapeutic effect in improving PSAD patients' anxiety state, being similar to Escitalopram Oxalate tablets in reducing anxiety state and being superior to Escitalopram in improving gastrointestinal function and daily living activities.

To investigate the clinical change of post-stroke dysphagia after the intervention of Liyan Tongqiao （relieving sore-throat and dredging orifices）acupuncture using cranial diffusion tensor imaging (DTI).
A total of 60 patients with post-stroke dysphagia were enrolled and randomly divided into Liyan Tongqiao acupuncture group and neurology treatment group, with 30 patients in each group. The patients in the neurology treatment group were given routine neurology treatment and swallowing rehabilitation training, and those in the Liyan Tongqiao acupuncture group received acupuncture at Sishencong (EX-HN1), Baihui (GV20), bilateral Tai-yang (EX-HN5), and bilateral Fengchi (GB20) and tongue triple acupuncture, with an electroacupuncture apparatus for EX-HN1, bilateral GB20, and tongue triple acupuncture, for a needle retaining time of 30 minutes each time, once a day and 5 times a week, in addition to the treatment in the neurology treatment group. GSK2879552 supplier Each course of treatment was 3 weeks, and both groups were treaough the stimulation of related acupoint signals.
To observe the effect of moxibustion at "acupoint-open on-time" （Linggui Bafa） on immune function and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway in aging rats, so as to reveal its underlying mechanism of anti-agingt.
Forty SD rats were randomly divided into control, model, "Linggui Bafa" and "Shenque (CV8)" groups (
=10 in each group). Aging model was established by intraperitoneal injection of D-galactose (300 mg/kg) for 42 days. Moxibustion was applied at "acupoint-open on-time" or CV8 once daily for 28 days. The serum levels of TNF-α, IgG, IgA and IgM were detected by ELISA. The spleen index of rats was calculated. The expression of NF-κB p65 and NF-κB inhibitor protein (IκB) α mRNA of spleen tissues was detected by real-time PCR.
Compared with the control group, the expression level of serum TNF-α, the mRNA expression levels of NF-κB p65 and IκBα in the model group was significantly increased (
<0.01), while the expression levels of serum IgG, IgA and IgM, and the spleen index in the model group were significantly decreased (
<0.01). After the treatment, mode-ling-induced increase of serum TNF-α, NF-κB p65 and IκBα mRNA expression levels and decrease of serum IgG, IgA, IgM levels, the spleen index were all completely reversed in the two treatment groups relevant to the model group (
<0.01,
<0.05). No significant change was found in the above-mentioned indexes between the two treatment groups (
>0.05).
Moxibustion at both "acupoint-open on-time" and CV8 can enhance the immune function of aging rats, which may be related to its effects in inhibiting NF-κB signaling pathway.

To observe the effect of electroacupuncture(EA) on proangiogenesis process and protein turn-over in a mouse model of sarcopenia, so as to explore its potential molecular mechanism anti-aging.
Fourteen 30-week-old male SAMP8 mice were randomly divided into a model group (
=7) and an EA group (
=7). Seven anti-rapidly aging SAMR1 mice of the same age were used as the control group (
=7). EA (1 mA, 4 Hz) was applied to bilateral "Zusanli"(ST36) and "Yanglingquan"(GB34) for 20 minutes each time once a day, 6 times a week for 4 weeks. The exhausted running platform was used to test the sports function. Gastrocnemius muscle mass and relative ratio of gastrocnemius muscle mass to body mass were measured. HE staining and transmission electron microscope were used to observe the morphology, and the cross-sectional area of gastrocnemius muscle was calculated. Relative protein expressions of protein kinase B (AKT) , phosphorylated (p) -AKT, mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) , p-mTOR, p70 ribosomal protein S6 kHIF-1α and VEGF-A were significantly up-regulated (
<0.01), mRNA expression of MuRF1 and MAFbx down-regulated (
<0.01,
<0.05) in the EA group compared with the model group.
EA may delay the aging muscle atrophy in mice by regulating the gastrocnemius muscle's proangiogenesis process and protein turnover.
