The Therapeutic Efficacy of Acupotomy on the Treatment of Lumbar Tri-Transverse Process Syndrome and the Temperature Difference of Infrared Image
Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacty of acupotomy on the treatment of lumbar tri-transverse process syndrome and the temperature difference of infrared image.Methods:43 patients with lumbar tri-transverse process from January 2021 to June 2022 were selected and treated in the first section of spinal orthopedics,acupuncture knife was used to release the treatment.To compare pain visual analogue scale(VAS)scores,Oswestry dysfunction index(ODI)chan-ges,infrared thermal distribution of inflammatory factors(interleukin 1β(IL-1β),interleukin 6(IL-6)),pain mediators(dopamine(DA),prostatin E2(PGE2)and 5-serotonin(5-HT))before treatment and 1 week,1 month,3 months after treatment to evaluate efficacy.Results:VAS and ODI scores after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment(P＜0.01).There was no statistical significance in 1 week,1 month and 3 months after treatment(P＞0.05).After treatment,the temperature difference of inflammatory factors(IL-1β,IL-6)and the infrared thermal image of the lumbar tri-transverse process syndrome decreased significantly compared with that before treatment,and showed a contin-uous decreasing trend with the extension of follow-up time,there was no significant difference between 1 month after treatment and 3 months after treatment(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Acupotomy on the treatment of lumbar tri-transverse process syndrome can alleviate the clinical symp-toms of patients,improve lumbar functional activities,pro-mote the metabolism and absorption of inflammatory factors,and improve local temperature.The curative efficacy is good within 3 months,and is worthy of clinical promotion.
