INTRODUCTION:Myofasciitis, a prevalent cause of musculoskeletal pain, is associated with thoracolumbar fascial changes. Acupuncture is effective for pain relief, but its role in fascial repair remains unclear. This study examined the effects of electroacupuncture (EA) at BL23 (Shenshu) and BL40 (Weizhong) on fascial tissue repair in a rat model of thoracolumbar fasciitis (TLF). METHODS:The study involved 42 six-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats divided into control (n = 15) and modeling (n = 27) groups. TLF was induced by injecting complete Freund's adjuvant into the thoracolumbar fascia. Three rats in the control and modeling groups were used for model validation. The remaining 24 modeled rats were split into model and EA groups (n = 12 each). EA was administered at BL23 and BL40 to rats in the EA group for 20 min daily for 9 days. Assessments included skin pain sensitivity, musculoskeletal ultrasound, histological evaluation of fascial thickness, and measurement of inflammatory markers and fibroblast activity. RESULTS:EA-treated rats showed significant improvements, including reduced mechanical pain sensitivity, decreased fascial thickness and lower expression of pro-inflammatory markers (tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin 1β) and fibroblast activity markers (proliferating cell nuclear antigen, α-smooth muscle actin, and vimentin). There was also a favorable balance in extracellular matrix components (increased type I/III collagen and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1/tissue inhibitor of MMP (TIMP)-1 ratios), which was linked to reduced activity of the transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1/suppressor of mother against decapentaplegic (Smad)2 pathway. CONCLUSION:EA at BL23 and BL40 reduces inflammation, inhibits fibroblast proliferation and activation, and promotes fascial repair, likely via modulation of the TGF-β1/Smad2 pathway. These findings support the therapeutic potential of EA for the treatment of myofasciitis, potentially aiding in chronic musculoskeletal pain management and fascial tissue repair.
Objective Electroacupuncture has demonstrated beneficial effects in post-stroke motor dysfunction, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying its therapeutic efficacy remain incompletely understood. This study aims to investigate whether electroacupuncture promotes post-stroke motor function recovery by modulating the interaction between miR-124-3p and the NRG1/ErbB4 signaling pathway, specifically exploring whether miR-124-3p directly targets NRG1 to regulate neural plasticity in a focal cerebral ischemia rat model. Methods The ischemic stroke model was established by middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion (MCAO/R) in adult rats. These rats were randomly divided into sham, model, electroacupuncture and model plus miR-124-3p inhibitor groups. The model group, electroacupuncture group and model plus miR-124-3p inhibitor group received EA intervention 24 h after modelling for 7 consecutive days. Behavioural function was assessed by Zea Longa score and mechanical pain rating. Hippocampal damage was detected by HE staining and neuronal apoptosis was observed by TUNEL staining. IL-1β and IL-18 levels were measured by ELISA. PCR and Western blotting were used to detect the expression of miR-124-3p and inflammatory pathway proteins. The interaction between miR-124-3p and TLR4 was verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Results Electroacupuncture improved motor function in rat model of MCAO/R, as evidenced by improved Zea Longa scores and decreased mechanical withdrawal thresholds. Electroacupuncture significantly attenuated neuronal damage and also inhibited the inflammatory response by decreasing IL-18 and IL-1β levels (P < 0.001). Notably, electroacupuncture upregulated miR-124-3p expression (P < 0.0001) and activated the NRG1/ErbB4 signaling pathway in the hippocampus. When miR-124-3p was inhibited, NRG1 protein expression decreased while GABA expression tended to increase. Dual-luciferase reporter assays confirmed that miR-124-3p directly targets the 3’UTR of NRG1 mRNA and regulates its expression at the translational level. These findings suggest that electroacupuncture may alleviate neuronal and axonal damage by modulating miR-124-3p/NRG1/ErbB4 signalling and regulating GABA release. Conclusion Electroacupuncture can ameliorate motor dysfunction induced after brain I/R injury by targeting and modulating the NRG1-ErbB4 signaling pathway via miR-124-3p. These data are expected to provide new insights into the mechanisms of electroacupuncture for the prevention of potential targets for the recovery of motor dysfunction after stroke. ### Competing Interest Statement The authors have declared no competing interest. the Joint Fund Project of Fujian Provincial Natural Science Foundation in 202, 2022J011019 the 2022 Fujian Provincial Health and Health Youth Backbone Training Project, 2022GA009 the 2024 Fujian Provincial Science and Technology Innovation Joint Fund Project, 2024Y907 the 2022 Fujian Medical University Start-up Fund General Project, 2022QH1287
BackgroundAcupuncture is widely used for Lower Limb Motor Dysfunction Following Stroke (LLMD) in China, though its effectiveness remains unclear. This meta-analysis aims to evaluate the effectiveness of acupuncture for LLMD.MethodsWe searched eight databases, including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, VIP, and CBM, up to December 2023. Randomized controlled trials on acupuncture therapy for LLMD after stroke were included in this study. Outcome measures included motor function, balance function, walking ability, and daily living activities. Two researchers conducted independent literature screening, data extraction, and quality assessment in accordance with Cochrane Collaboration network's standards. Review Manager 5.3 and Stata 17.0 were used in data analysis. Results were presented as mean difference (MD) or standardized mean difference (SMD) with 95% confidence interval (95% CI).ResultsTwelve studies involving 1318 patients, most of which showed low or unclear risk of bias, were included in this review. Meta-analysis results indicate that compared with conventional treatment, acupuncture intervention can improve scores in Fugl-Meyer Assessment for lower scale (SMD = -0.48, 95% CI [-0.92, -0.04], Z = 2.16, P = .03), Berg Balance Scale (SMD = -0.86, 95%CI [-1.65, -0.07], Z = 2.14, P = .03), Functional Ambulation Category scale (SMD = -0.74, 95%CI [-2.33, 0.84], Z = 0.92, P = .36), and Modified Barthel Index Scale (SMD = 0.27, 95%CI [-0.30, 0.84], Z = 0.94, P = .35).ConclusionThe results of this study suggest that acupuncture combined rehabilitation training may be more effective than conventional rehabilitation alone in improving LLMD, balance function, walking ability, and daily living activities after stroke. Despite limitations due to the low quality of the included studies and methodological constraints, acupuncture combined with rehabilitation training may serve as an effective approach for the treatment of LLMD poststroke.
AbstractsBackgroundKnee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a common degenerative joint disease that severely affects patients’ quality of life. Joint-mobilization technique reportedly improves joint pain, limited mobility, and dysfunction significantly. This meta-analysis aimed to systematically assess the clinical efficacy of joint-mobilization technique treatment on the level of knee pain, function, and mobility in patients with KOA. We also aimed to provide evidence-based medical data for the clinical management of KOA.MethodsWe searched four English databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane) and three Chinese databases (China Biomedical Literature Database, CNKI, VIP, and Wanfang). The search date was from the date of inception to February 1, 2024 for each database. Randomized controlled trials investigating the efficacy of joint release in KOA were identified. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 and Stata 17.0.ResultsA total of 8 studies involving 432 patients with KOA were included. Our meta-analysis showed that compared with the control group, the experimental group showed a significant improvement in knee pain level (SMD=-1.69, 95% CI [-1.74, -0.82] Z=3.96 P<0.0001), WOMAC scale (SMD=-0.74 95% CI [-1.39, -0.10] Z= 2.25 P=0.02) were significantly improved. However, they were not superior to controls in knee flexion (SMD=2.3 95% CI [0.98, 3.62] Z=3.41 P=0.00006) and extension mobility (SMD=1.79, 95% CI [1.38, 2.20], Z=8.54,P<0.00001).ConclusionJoint-mobilization technique has some advantages in improving the degree of knee pain and dysfunction in patients with KOA, but it is not better than the control group in improving knee mobility. This study provides theoretical support for the promotion of joint-mobilization technique in KOA treatment.

Objective:To observe any effect of tendon manipulation on the joint pain, joint motion and gait of persons with knee osteoarthritis (KOA).Methods:Sixty-one KOA patients were randomly divided into an observation group ( n=31) and a control group ( n=30). Both groups received ultrasonic physiotherapy and exercise trai-ning (including quadriceps femoris training and heel raising training), while the observation group was additionally provided with daily tendon manipulation, five times a week for 3 weeks. Before and after the treatment, knee pain (using a visual analog scale (VAS)), motor function (using the Western Ontario and McMaster University (WOMAC) osteoarthritis index scale), step length, gait speed and the double support phase ratio were evaluated in both groups using three-dimensional gait analysis equipment. Results:After the treatment the average VAS scores, as well as the joint pain, stiffness and dysfunction and the total WOMAC scores of both groups had decreased significantly. There was significant improvement in the average stride length, walking speed and the proportion of double support phase among the observation group, and the latter two measurements had also improved significantly in the control group. After the intervention, the average pain, WOMAC scores and gait descriptors of the observation group were significantly superior to the control group′s results.Conclusion:Tendon manipulation can usefully supplement routine rehabilitation in the treatment of KOA, improving walking efficiency and thus life quality.
Abstract Background: Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is the progressive deterioration of cognitive function after surgery. The mechanism underlying the development of POCD is unclear. Previous studies have suggested that neuroinflammation is a major contributor to the development of POCD. The purpose of this study was to observe the effects of preoperative pain on inflammatory factors and neuronal apoptosis in the hippocampus. Methods: Cognitive function was evaluated by the Morris water maze (MWM), and the expression levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α) were measured on the 1st, 3rd and 7th days after surgery. The levels of Ach, cAMP, PKA, and GABAA in the hippocampus were measured at the same time points. Results: Our results showed that the rats that experienced preoperative pain exhibited impaired learning and memory after surgery (P< 0.001). Moreover, rats in the preoperative pain+surgery group exhibited increased neuronal apoptosis compared to that of rats in the surgery group. On the 1st, 3rd and 7th days after surgery, the expression of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in the pain+surgery group was increased compared to that in the surgery group (P<0.001). Furthermore, the expression of key proteins, including ACh, cAMP, PKA and GABAA, was decreased in the pain+ surgery group compared to the surgery group. Conclusions: Preoperative pain may be a key risk factor for the development of POCD by inhibiting the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway (ACh-cAMP-PKA signalling pathway) and decreasing the expression of GABAA in the CNS.

Background: Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is 1 of the common clinical diseases, and many treatment methods can only improve the symptoms of pain in the short term. Traditional Chinese sports - Baduanjin has been proven to have a positive effect on chronic low back pain. However, the quality of the research is low, the sample size is small, and safety observations are lacking. We describe the protocol of a randomized controlled trial to study the efficacy and safety of Baduanjin chronic low back pain. Methods: This randomized, controlled, evaluator-blind, two-arm, parallel clinical trial will include 90 outpatients with chronic low back pain recruited from the First Hospital of Nanping City, Fujian Province. The patients were randomly assigned to the intervention group (Baduanjin exercise training) and the control group (not receiving any special exercise training) at a ratio of 1:1. Patients in the intervention group will receive Baduanjin exercise training 3 times a week for 24 weeks. The 2 groups received a 4- week follow-up observation at 24 weeks. The main result from the intervention before intervention to 24 weeks later, and the follow-up of 4 changes the visual analog scale score at weeks, and by independent t are tested groups. It will also review the Pain-related disability index, The Quebec Back Pain Disability Scale, Health-related quality of life, Roland Morris (Roland Morris) Disability Questionnaire, Overall Perceived Effect (OPE) and safety Compare. Cost data for cost-benefit and cost-benefit analysis will be collected. Discussion: This will be the first study to compare the effectiveness and safety of Baduanjin for patients with chronic low back pain. The results may help healthcare professionals make clinical decisions and may reduce the cost of treatment for this disease.

Background Perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND) is the progressive deterioration of cognitive function after surgery. The purpose of this study was to observe the effect of preoperative pain on inflammatory factors and neuronal apoptosis in the hippocampus of rats. Methods 36 adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: the control group, the pain group, the pain+operation group, and the operation group. 6 days before the surgery, the rats received cognitive training, and the cognitive evaluation was carried out on the1, 3 and 7th days after the surgery. The rats were killed on the first, third and seventh days after the surgery (n = 3 rats/day). The cognitive function of rats was evaluated by the Morris Water Maze (MWM), and the expression levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin 6(IL-6), Interleukin 1β(IL-1β)and Tumor Necrosis Factor-α(TNF-α), Acetylcholine(Ach)and Cyclic Adenosine monophosphate(cAMP), protein kinase A(PKA)and gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptors(GABAA) in the hippocampus were measured on the 1st, 3rd and 7th days after the operation. Results Our results showed that the pain model rats exhibited impaired behavior on the first day (P< 0.001), and this lasted until the 7th day after the operation (P≤0.002 and P≤0. 001, respectively). Preoperative pain model rats showed a higher level of apoptosis than that shown by the simple operation rats. On the 1st, 3rd and 7th days after the operation, the protein content of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in the pain operation group was increased compared to that in the simple operation group (P<0.001). ACh, cAMP, PKA and GABAA expression in the hippocampus was decreased after operation in the preoperative pain model rats. Conclusion Preoperative pain is a key risk factor for the development of PND. The ACh-PKA-GABAA signaling pathway plays a key role in the acetylcholine pathway.
Objective To investigate the effect of needle-warmed moxibustion on chondrocyte apoptosis and the lubricin protein content of osteoarthritic knees.Methods Forty New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into a sham operation group,a model group,a Western medicine group and a needle-warmed moxibustion group,each of 10.Knee osteoarthritis was induced in all except the sham operation group by injecting an aqueous solution of papain into the outer edge of one patellar tendon at the inferior pole of the patella.In the sham operation group the injection needle was only inserted and withdrawn.The needle-warmed moxibustion group had needle-warmed moxibustion applied to the internal and external DUBI acupoints 14 days after the modelling in 2 courses of treatment.The Western medicine group was given diclofenac sodium (15 mg/kg body weight) by gavage on the same schedule.The sham operation group and the model group were fed normally without special treatment.At the end of the treatment,knee cartilage tissue was resected from each group and the number of chondrocytes and the expression of lubricin in the articular cartilage cells were compared.Results Compared with the model group and the Western medicine group,the number of chondrocytes in the moxibustion group was significantly greater and the cells were arranged more neatly.TUNEL staining showed that the apoptosis rate of chondrocytes in the moxibustion group was significantly lower.A reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction showed that the expression of lubricin mRNA in the moxibustion group had increased significantly.Western blotting showed that the expression of lubricin protein was also significantly enhanced in the moxibustion group.Conclusions Needle-warmed moxibustion has a positive therapeutic effect on knee osteoarthritis,at least in rabbits.It can inhibit the apoptosis of knee chondrocytes and promote the secretion of lubricin.
