医学上对瘫痪病人的治疗效果还不能令人满意

提高瘫痪病人的治愈率是人们关心的问题。众所周知

针刺对人体的作用有多方面

而针刺在临床的应用也很广泛

多年来临床治疗瘫痪病人常合并使用针刺

但效果不一致

故难于肯定针刺对神经再生的作用

而这方面的实验研究工作也缺乏

为此几年来我们进行这方面的研究工作

在观察We studied effect of acupuncture on regeneration of rat's radial nerve.After the right radial nerves were severed

rats were reared for 7.10 or 14 days.In this period

we gave acupuncture therapy to the acupunctured.The regenerations of radial nerves were examined by the retrograde transport method of HRP.The principal result was as follows:14 days after the right radial nerves were severed

the more regenerated fibers can be found in the right radial nerves of the majority of the acupunctured as compared with those of the match controls.It is significant statistically(P<0.05).It was shown that acupuncture promoted the regeneration of rat's radial nerve.We have found that acupunctupe promote regeneration of rat's hypoglossal nerve.It was sure that acupuncture promoted the regeneration of rat's peripheral nerve.
