提高尿流率。结论 :电针“会阳”、“中膂俞”对大鼠非细菌性前列腺炎所致膀胱尿流动力学异常有一定的改善作用Objective: Observing the influence of electroacupuncture (EA) on the urodynamics in nonbacterial prostatitis rats. Methods: 30 SD rats were randomly and evenly divided into pseudo operation group
model group and model+acupuncture group. Nonbacterial prostatitis model was established by injecting 4% formaldehyde solution (0.1 mL)into the prostate. “Huiyang" (BL 35) and “Zhonglushu" (BL 29) were punctured and stimulated electrically for 30 min once daily
7 days altogether. The urodynamics was detected 3 and 10 days separately after acupuncture treatment. Results: 3 days following establishing model
in comparison with pseudo operation group
the basic pressure
pre micturition pressure
micturition pressure
residual urine
and the vesical contraction frequency and amplitude increased considerably (P<0.01
P<0.001)
vesical compliance and uroflow rate lowered significantly (P<0.01
P<0.001)
and the vesical volume and urination output decreased slightly.10 days after finishing prostatitis model
these indexes still kept a similar tendency. After acupuncture treatment
intravesical pressure was lowered
the vesical compliance improved
the increased vesical contraction frequency and amplitude were suppressed
and the uroflow rate was increased. Conclusion: Acupuncture treatment may ameliorate urodynamics in nonbacterial prostatitis rats.
