摘要

介绍。由于传统药理学方法的有效性有限，特发性主观非脉动性耳鸣(iSNPT)是一个令人沮丧的医生诊断。本研究旨在探讨针刺对老年iSNPT患者生活质量的影响。方法。本研究共纳入40例年龄为65岁的iSNPT患者，男女均有，持续时间为30个月。他们被分为研究组和对照组，每组20名患者。研究组在针刺穴位sj3、sj5、sj17、sj18、sj19、sj20、sj21、sj22、gb2、gb8、gb20、Li 4、Ki 3、st36的基础上给予处方药物治疗，每次30分钟，每周3次，连续4周。对照组仅给予处方药物治疗。两组患者均采用耳鸣响度视觉模拟评分(VASTL)和耳鸣严重程度指数(TSi)进行评估。结果。对照组VASTL和TSi无统计学意义变化，而研究组VASTL从8.27±1.45降至3.20±1.36 (p < 0.001)， TSi从44.30±3.40降至27.95±4.18 (p < 0.001)，具有较高统计学意义。结论。针刺是老年iSNPT患者良好的辅助补充疗法。

Effect of acupuncture on tinnitus severity index in the elderly with non-pulsating tinnitus

Introduction. idiopathic subjective non-pulsating tinnitus (iSNPT) is a frustrating diagnosis to physicians owing to the limited effectiveness of traditional pharmacological approaches. This study aimed to investigate the effect of acupuncture on quality of life in elderly people with iSNPT. Methods. overall, 40 patients of both sexes with iSNPT lasting for > 3 consecutive months and aged 65 years participated in this study. They were assigned into the study and the control groups, 20 patients each. The study group received the prescribed medications in addition to manual acupuncture on the following acupoints: SJ 3, SJ 5, SJ 17, SJ 18, SJ 19, SJ 20, SJ 21, SJ 22, GB 2, GB 8, GB 20, Li 4, Ki 3, and ST 36, for 30 minutes, 3 times/week for 4 weeks, while the control group received their prescribed medications only. All participants in both groups were assessed with the visual analogue score of tinnitus loudness (VASTL) and tinnitus severity index (TSi). Results. No statistically significant changes were reported in VASTL or TSi in the control group, while in the study group, VASTL showed a high statistically significant decrease from 8.27 ± 1.45 to 3.20 ± 1.36 (p < 0.001) and TSi revealed a decrease from 44.30 ± 3.40 to 27.95 ± 4.18 (p < 0.001). Conclusions. Acupuncture is a good adjunctive complementary therapy to iSNPT in the elderly.
