Clinical efficacy evaluation of acupuncture in treating negative symptoms of schizophrenia
Objective: To explore the therapeutic effect of acupuncture on negative symptoms in patients with schizophrenia and provide the evidence for clinical treatment.,Methods,2,A total of 100 schizophrenic patients with negative symptoms were included and divided into the study group and control group by random number table, 50 cases in each group. The patients in both groups were orally treated with amsulpiride tablets. Based on above, the patients in the study group were treated with acupuncture. The observation period was 12 weeks. Before and after treatment, the positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS) and scale for assessment of negative symptoms (SANS) were applied to evaluate the improvement of negative symptoms of schizophrenia in both groups.,Results,2,During the study, 4 patients in the study group were removed or shed off, and 46 patients in the study group and 50 patients in the control group were finally included in the statistical analysis. After treatment, the negative symptom, positive symptom, general psychopathological symptom scores and total score of PANSS in the study group were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment (,P,<,0.01), the negative symptom score in the control group was also decreased (,P,<,0.05), and the negative symptom, general psychopathological symptom scores and total score of the study group were significantly lower than those of the control group (,P,<,0.01). After treatment, the scores of all items of SANS in the study group were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment (,P,<,0.01), while there were no statistically significant differences on the scores of all items in the control group between before and after treatment (,P,>,0.05), and the scores of all items in the study group were lower than those in the control group (,P,<,0.05, ,P,<,0.01).,Conclusion,2,Compared with antipsychotic drugs alone, acupuncture combined with antipsychotic drugs can better improve the negative symptoms of patients with schizophrenia, which has certain clinical application value.
