RÉSUMÉ
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To compare the efficacy difference between acupotomy and acupuncture in the treatment of avascular necrosis of femoral head at the early and middle stages.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The randomized controlled prospective study method was adopted. Sixty cases of avascular necrosis of femoral head at Ficat-ArletⅠto Ⅱ stages were randomized into an acupotomy group (32 cases) and an acupuncture group (28 cases) by the third part. In the acupotomy group, the acupotomy was adopted for the loose solution at the treatment sites of hip joint, once every two weeks, totally for 3 times. In the acupuncture group,points around the hip joint were selected and stimulated with warm acupuncture therapy, once every day, for 6 weeks. Harris hip score was observed before and after treatment. The efficacy was evaluated in the two groups.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Harris hip score was improved significantly after treatment in the two groups (both<0.05). The result in acupotomy group was better than that in the acupuncture group (<0.05). The effective rate was 90.6% (29/32) in the acupotomy group, better than 75.0% (21/28) in the acupuncture group after treatment (<0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Harris hip score and the effective rate in the acupotomy group are better than those in the treatment with routine acupuncture for avascular necrosis of femoral head at the early and middle stages.</p>
RÉSUMÉ
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the objective evaluation index of acupuncture effect through study on the differences of surface electromyography of deltoid before and after acupuncture at some specific points.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Twenty-six cases of periarthritis were treated with acupuncture at Jianyu (LI 15), Jianqian (Extra), Jianliao (TE 14) and Binao (LI 14). The treatment was given once every other day, six treatments were required. The deltoid myoelectricity indices were collected and analyzed before treatment, after treatment and after 5 s manipulations at each acupoint.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Compared with the deltoid myoelectricity before treatment, there were statistically significant differences in the 2nd, 3rd and 5th manipulations during the acupuncture stimulation at Jianqian (Extra), the 2nd, 3rd and 6th manipulations at Binao ( LI 14) (all P < 0.05) and all the 6 manipulations at Jianyu (LI 15) (all P < 0.05). However, there was no statistically significant difference in all the 6 manipulations at Jianliao (TE 14) (all P > 0.05). And the differences of deltoid surface myoelectricity before and after the 6 acupuncture treatments were all with statistic significance (all P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>A certain therapeutic effect can be found in treatment of periarthritis with acupuncture. And the effect at Jianyu (LI 15) is proved to be the most obvious. Jianqian (Extra) and Binao (LI 14) are considered as the second obvious. While no significant effect can be found at Jianliao (TE 14).</p>

ObjectiveTo analyze characteristic changes of shoulder muscles by investigating surface electromyographic regularity changes before and after the treatment of Frozen shoulders. Methods7 cases of frozen shoulders were selected, surface electromyography (sEMG) before and after treatment were recorded by AMT-8 EMG recorder. The collected data was processed using MATLAB software integrated EMG (IEMG) value were obtained. Then the IEMG data were statistically analyzed using Stata11.0 software and compared. Results ①The differences of abduction deltoid and infraspinatus muscle IEMG values before and after treatment were statistically significant(P <0.05), while IEMG values changes of biceps, triceps, pectoralis major, latissimus dorsi and trapezius before and after treatment were not statistically significant (P>0.05); changes of adduction IEMG values of all muscles were not statistically significant (P>0.05). ②Changes of flexion IEMG values of biceps before and after treatment were statistically significant (P<0.05), while IEMG values changes of pectoralis major, infraspinatus muscle, latissimus dorsi, trapezius, deltoid, triceps before and after treatment were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Changes of extension IEMG values of triceps before and after treatment were statistically significant (P<0.05), while those of pectoralis major, infraspinatus muscle, latissimus dorsi, trapezius, deltoid and biceps were not statistically significant (P>0.05). ③IEMG values of all the muscles during external rotation, internal rotation before and after treatment IEMG were not significantly different. Conclusion①After treatment, the outreach functions of infraspinatus and deltoid muscles were improved, while adduction functions of all muscles were not improved. ②Flexion function of biceps was improved significantly after treatment as well as extension function of triceps.③Extemal rotation, internal rotation functions of all muscles were not improved significantly.
