Acupuncture and moxibustion treatment of 150 cases of peripheral facial paralysis in different stages

BACKGROUND Background: Nowadays, the application of computer technology in the medical field is more and more extensive, and many diseases can achieve better diagnosis and treatment effects through computer technology. OBJECTIVE Objective: The paper applies intelligent facial dynamic image information to the clinical treatment of peripheral acupuncture and moxibustion for the treatment of peripheral facial paralysis. An automatic acupoint positioning algorithm based on facial information dynamic image is proposed, which provides an objective and standard basis for the treatment of facial acupuncture and moxibustion. METHODS Methods: The paper selects the head threshold, that is, the facial dynamic image information as the research background, and divides the facial features according to the "three courts and five eyes" rule, and uses the Minimum Eigenvalue operator to detect the corner points of the facial features, locate the facial features, and use the face. The feature position is used as a reference coordinate for facial acupoint positioning. RESULTS Results: After verification, it was found that the positioning was accurate, and the peripheral facial paralysis of the patient was improved after warm acupuncture point positioning treatment, which improved the facial nerve function of the patient, improved the treatment efficiency and shortened the treatment time. Therefore, this technology is worthy of clinical promotion. CONCLUSIONS Conclusion: Through experimental analysis, the algorithm is proved to be effective and accurate. Based on facial dynamic image information to locate acupoints, warm acupuncture has a significant effect on peripheral facial paralysis, which can significantly improve facial nerve function and shorten treatment time, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Before And After

The NMR sensitivity of hyperpolarized 129Xe is much stronger than that of traditional proton, but single Xe has no targeting property. The Xe signal of new “cage” molecule can be obtained by combining it with molecular “cage,” which provides design ideas for the preparation of hyperpolarized 129Xe nanoprobes. A kind of nano material with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons shell is synthesized, and its 129Xe loading, particle size and fluorescence properties are measured by Hyper-CEST. The material is injected into the vein of patients with refractory peripheral facial paralysis in the form of solution. The patients are all treated with acupuncture. AFNI software is used to compare the fMRI data of patients before and after treatment and healthy control group. The average diameter of the prepared nano particles is 130 nm, and the average Z potential of nano materials is 25 mV. The fluorescence effects of monomers and nano materials with the same concentration are compared. Nano materials can emit strong fluorescence, and the assembly of monomers can enhance the fluorescence intensity. The results of Hyper-CEST 129Xe magnetic resonance testing show that the nano materials have strong CEST signal at 208 ppm, which means that the nano materials are suitable to carry Xe molecules, thus forming hyperpolarized 129Xe molecular cages. The nanoprobe solution loaded with 129Xe is injected into the vein of patients with refractory peripheral facial paralysis. Before and after acupuncture and moxibustion treatment, there are obvious signal enhancement in posterior central gyrus, thalamus, paracentral lobe, cerebellum, superior temporal gyrus and other areas of the brain, because the activated brain areas of acupuncture and moxibustion have been significantly enlarged, which proves that nanoprobe + acupuncture treatment is helpful to the analysis of the central operation mechanism of refractory peripheral facial paralysis.
