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.

Objective. Investigate the optimum time of acupuncture treatment in peripheral facial paralysis in order to provide evidence for clinical treatment. Methods. CNKI, Wanfang, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and EMBASE databases were systematically searched from the inception dates to February 20, 2020. Studies limited to participants with acute peripheral facial paralysis treated with acupuncture and patients without information of the stage were excluded. The primary outcomes were effective rate and cure rate (based on facial nerve function scores). This meta-analysis is registered with PROSPERO, number CRD42020169870. Results. 15 randomized controlled trials that enrolled 2847 participants met the selection criteria. There was no significant differences in the effective rate (RR, 1.22; 95% CI, 0.70-2.11) when comparing acupuncture to prednisone therapy in acute facial paralysis. Acupuncture treatment in the acute stage increased both the effective rate (RR, 1.03; 95% CI, 1.00-1.07) and the cure rate (RR, 1.34; 95% CI, 1.14-1.58) compared to that in the nonacute stage. Conclusions. In this meta-analysis, acupuncture showed a better effect in the acute stage than the nonacute stage for participants with peripheral facial paralysis. There was no statistical difference in the effective rate no matter the choice of acupuncture or prednisone therapies in the acute stage. These findings encourage early acupuncture treatment in peripheral facial paralysis.
