[Effect of electroacupuncture on the characteristic signal of electroencephalogram in the patients with chronic insomnia: a randomized controlled trial].
Objectives: To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on sleep quality and electroencephalogram (EEG) signal in the patients with chronic insomnia and to explore its mechanism.
Methods: Sixty patients with chronic insomnia were randomized into an EA group (30 cases, 3 cases dropped out) and a health learning group (30 cases, 3 cases dropped out). In the health learning group, the sleep health education was provided. In the EA group, besides the health education as the health learning group, EA was delivered at Baihui (GV20), Yintang (GV24+), bilateral Shenmen (HT7), bilateral Sanyinjiao (SP6), with continuous wave, 2 Hz in frequency, once every other day, and 3 interventions a week. EA was given for 4 weeks successi-vely, composed of 12 treatments. The score of Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI), Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA), and patient health questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) before and after treatment were compared between the two groups. The EEG signals were collected and the relative power and entropy of EEG before and after treatment were compared between the two groups.
Results: After treatment, the scores of PSQI, HAMA and PHQ-9, the relevant power of β wave in F8 and T3 channels, and that of α wave in T4 channel, and the entropy in T3 channel under the eyes-open (EO) resting state, as well as the relevant power and the entropy of γ wave in F8 channel under the eyes-closed (EC) resting state in the EA group were lower (P<0.05) than those before the treatment. All of the above results were lower than those of the health learning group at the same time points (P<0.05). Under the EO resting state, the relevant power of the θ and δ waves of T3 channel and θ wave of T4, O2 and Pz channels of patients in the EA group after the treatment were increased (P<0.05) than those before the treatment, and higher (P<0.05) than those of the health learning group at the same time points.
Conclusions: Acupuncture is effective on chronic insomnia, which may be related to the regulation EEG signals.
期刊介绍:
Acupuncture Research was founded in 1976. It is an acupuncture academic journal supervised by the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine, co-sponsored by the Institute of Acupuncture of the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences and the Chinese Acupuncture Association. This journal is characterized by "basic experimental research as the main focus, taking into account clinical research and reporting". It is the only journal in my country that focuses on reporting the mechanism of action of acupuncture.
The journal has been changed to a monthly journal since 2018, published on the 25th of each month, and printed in full color. The manuscript acceptance rate is about 10%, and provincial and above funded projects account for about 80% of the total published papers, reflecting the latest scientific research results in the acupuncture field and has a high academic level. Main columns: mechanism discussion, clinical research, acupuncture anesthesia, meridians and acupoints, theoretical discussion, ideas and methods, literature research, etc.
