This may be related to hypofunctioning of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the descending pain inhibitory system. Therefore, we examined the relationship between the level of catastrophic thinking and the analgesic effect of electroacupuncture using the pain catastrophizing scale (PCS). We also evaluated the descending pain inhibitory system using conditioned pain modulation (CPM) and offset analgesia (OA). The relationship between catastrophic thinking and the descending pain inhibitory system was also examined.Materials and methods: After testing the hospital anxiety and depression scale and the PCS in 14 healthy adults, the current pain threshold (CPT), CPM, and OA were measured, in order, before the intervention. Thereafter, electroacupuncture was applied to 3 limbs (the dominant hand and both lower extremities) at 4 Hz, and to the scalp at 100 Hz, for 30 minutes, and the CPT was measured again immediately after the intervention. The difference in the CPT before and after the intervention was taken as the analgesic effect.Results: The participants were divided into 2 groups, the H-PCS group (≥16 points) and the L-PCS group (≤15 points), according to the PCS score, and the analgesic effects of electroacupuncture were significantly different (P = 0.04). However, no relationship was found between the PCS score and the CPM (r = -0.02, P = 0.94) and OA effects (r = -0.19, P = 0.49).Conclusion: It was suggested that people with high-level catastrophic thinking may find it difficult to obtain the analgesic effects of electroacupuncture.","PeriodicalId":45511,"journal":{"name":"Medical Acupuncture","volume":"35 6","pages":"311-318"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10753907/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139075422","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The condition affects a patient's physical, social, and psychologic health. It is important for the patient to recover quickly and minimize the risk of long-term sequelae. Therefore, researchers recommend a combination of several therapeutic modalities to shorten the disease's course and improve curative effects.Case: A 34-year-old woman had with right facial weakness. She was diagnosed with House-Brackmann grade III Bell's palsy and received medical therapy. She was also given manual acupuncture at GB-20, BL-2, ST-36, LI-4, TE-5 bilateral, and GV-20. Penetrating needling was given at GB-14 toward Ex-HN-3, ST-7 toward SI-18, SI-18 toward LI-20, ST-6 toward ST-4, and ST-5 toward ST-4 on the affected area, with a 30-minute needle retention. Electroacupuncture (EA) was delivered at ST-7-SI-18, ST-6-ST-5, GB-14-Ex-HN-5, and ST-4-CV-24, with a dense-disperse wave, at a frequency of 10/50 Hz for 20 minutes. She had treatment sessions twice per week, for a total of12 sessions.Results: From her 7th to 12th visit, this patient had reached House-Brackmann grade I. No adverse effects occurred.Conclusions: In this patient, a combination of acupuncture penetrating needling technique and EA played a role to shorten her recovery time and minimize the risk of sequelae of Bell's palsy. The treatment combination used in this case report can be considered in other clinical cases.","PeriodicalId":45511,"journal":{"name":"Medical Acupuncture","volume":"35 6","pages":"346-350"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10753939/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139075421","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
