Latar belakang:Migren adalah serangan nyeri kepala primer, bersifat spesifik, paroksismal, dengan atau tanpa aura, dengan manifestasi subjektif baik sebelum maupun sesudah serangan, merupakan nyeri kepala tipe kronik dengan gejala rekurensi, menyerang usia produktif dan dapat menyebabkan penurunan produktivitas kerja hingga 80%, sehingga akan mempengaruhi kualitas hidup dan kehidupan perekonomian dan pendidikan secara global yang mengarah kepada kerugian bagi penderita migren dan institusi tempat penderita migren bersekolah ,bekerja serta dalam kehidupan keluarga penderita. Dengan tingginya angka prevalensi dan disabilitas pada penderita migren, dilain pihak sampai saat ini pengobatan yang tepat terhadap migren belum didapatkan secara maksimal maka diperlukan pendalaman dalam pengobatan maupun pencegahan migren sangat dibutuhkan., dan sampai saat ini belum didapatkan obat yang pasti, baik terhadap pencegahan dan pengobatan, sehingga perlu dikembangkan terapi yang dapat memberikan pertolongan yang lebih akurat pada penderita migren Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menilai keberhasilan dalam penatalaksanaan migren dalam mengurangi frekuensi serangan, mengurangi intensitas serangan dan mengurangi durasi serangan dari minggu ke-0,ke-4 hingga ke-8. Metode: Uji klinis acak tersamar tunggal dengan kontrol dilakukan terhadap 34 subjek dengan migren yang dialokasikan secara acak kedalam kelompok manual akupunktur (n=17), serta kelompok medikamentosa (n=17). Penilaian menilai frekuensi, durasi dan intensitas serangan migren yang dinilai pada saat sebelum perlakuan, minggu ke-4 dan minggu ke-8 dari baseline. Hasil: Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terdapat perbedaan bermakna antara kedua kelompok pada rerata jumlah frekuensi (p=0,040), durasi (p=0,012) dan intensitas (p=0,003) serangan migren pada minggu ke-4 dibandingkan dengan medikamentosa. Serata terdapat perbedaan yang bermakna antara kedua kelompok pada rerata jumlah jumlah frekuensi (p=0,029), durasi (p=0,001) dan intensitas (p<0,001) serangan migren pada minggu ke- 8. Kesimpulan: Intervensi akupunktur manual dapat menurunkan frekuensi, durasi dan intensitas serangan migren lebih baik dibandingkan dengan preventif farmakologi asam valproat pada minggu ke-4 dan minggu ke-8.

Migraine is a primary headache attack, specific, paroxysmal, with or without aura, with subjective manifestations both before and after the attack, a chronic type of headache with symptoms of recurrence, attacks at productive age and can cause a decrease in work productivity up to 80%, so that it will affect the quality of life, economic life and education globally which leads to losses for migraine sufferers and institutions where migraine sufferers attend school, work and in the lives of sufferers families. With the high prevalence and disability rates for migraine sufferers, on the other hand, the right treatment for migraine has not yet been obtained to the maximum, it is necessary to deepen the treatment and prevention of migraine is needed, and until now there has been no definitive cure, both for prevention and treatment, so it is necessary to develop therapies that can provide more accurate relief for migraine sufferers. The purpose of this study is to assess the success in managing migraine in reducing the frequency of attacks, reducing the intensity of attacks and reducing the duration of attacks from weeks 0, 4 to 8. Methods: A randomized controlled trial with control was conducted on 34 subjects with migraine who were randomly allocated into the manual group of acupuncture (n = 17), as well as the medicine group (n = 17). The assessment of frequency, duration and intensity of migraine attacks assessed at the time before treatment, at the fourth and eight week from baseline. Results: The results showed there were significant differences between the two groups in the mean number of frequencies (p = 0.040), duration (p = 0.012) and intensity (p = 0.003) of migraine attacks at the fourth week. There were significant differences between the two groups in the average number of frequencies (p= 0.029), duration (p=0.001) and intensity (p<0.001) of migraine attacks at the eight week. Conclusion: Manual acupuncture interventions can reduce the frequency, duration and intensity of migraine attacks better than the use of valproic acid in the fourth and eight week.

Obesitas merupakan suatu keadaan dengan akumulasi lemak yang tidak normal atau berlebihan di jaringan adiposa sehingga dapat mengganggu kesehatan. Diperkirakan lebih dari 500 juta orang dewasa di seluruh dunia mengalami obesitas dan 1,5 miliar mengalami masalah kelebihan berat badan. Pada obesitas terdapat peningkatan jaringan adiposa dimana jaringan adiposa dapat mensintesis dan mensekresi sitokin pro-inflamasi seperti interleukin-6 (IL-6). Akupunktur telah lama dikenal sebagai salah satu terapi tambahan dalam menangani obesitas. Akupunktur dapat menurunkan respon inflamasi pada jaringan adiposa dengan menurunkan infiltrasi makrofag ke dalam jaringan adiposa pada obesitas sehingga jumlah makrofag yang merupakan sumber produksi adipokin pro-inflamasi menjadi lebih sedikit. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh terapi akupunktur tanam benang catgut dan intervensi diet terhadap perubahan kadar IL-6 dan indeks massa tubuh pada pasien obesitas. Uji klinis acak tersamar ganda dilakukan pada 36 pasien obesitas yang dialokasikan ke dalam kelompok akupunktur tanam benang catgut dan intervensi diet atau kelompok akupunktur tanam benang sham dan intervensi diet. Akupunktur tanam benang dilakukan 2 kali pada titik CV12 Zhongwan, ST25 Tianshu, CV6 Qihai, dan SP6 Sanyinjiao setiap 2 minggu. Kadar IL-6 dalam plasma darah dan indeks massa tubuh digunakan untuk mengukur keluaran penelitian. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan perbedaan bermakna rerata kadar IL-6 awal dengan akhir dalam kelompok akupunktur tanam benang catgut (p = 0.01; 95% IK: 0.03 sampai 0.23) dan rerata selisih IMT lebih rendah 0.33 pada kelompok akupunktur tanam benang catgut dibandingkan dengan kelompok akupunktur tanam benang sham (p = 0.02; 95% IK: 0.05 sampai 0.61). Kesimpulan penelitian adalah terapi kombinasi akupunktur tanam benang catgut dan intervensi diet lebih efektif dalam menurunkan kadar IL-6 dan indeks massa tubuh pada pasien obesitas. ......Obesity is a condition with abnormal fat accumulation or excessive adipose tissue so it can disturb our health. It is estimated that over 500 million adults worldwide are obese and 1.5 billion are having problems with overweight. In obese there is an increased adipose tissue which can synthesize and secrete pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukine-6 (IL-6). Acupuncture has long been known as an adjunctive therapy for obesity. Acupuncture can reduce inflammatory responses in adipose tissue by reducing macrophage infiltration into adipose tissue in obesity so that the number of macrophages, which are the source of production of proinflammatory adipokines become fewer. A double blind randomized controlled trial involved 36 obesity patients randomly allocated into catgut embedding acupuncture group with diet intervention or sham embedding acupuncture group with diet intervention. Catgut embedding therapy was given two times at CV12 Zhongwan, ST25 Tianshu, CV6 Qihai, and SP6 Sanyinjiao every two weeks. Interleukine-6 level in blood plasma and body mass index (BMI) is used to measure research output. There was a statistically significant difference within catgut embedding group with levels of IL-6 (p = 0.01; 95% CI: 0.03 to 0.23) and lower mean BMI difference of 12.33 in catgut embedding group compared with sham embedding group (p = 0.02; 95% CI: 0.05 to 0.61). The result suggest that acupoint-catgut embedding therapy combined with diet intervention is more effective in reducing IL-6 levels and BMI in obese patients.
