    Abstract: Chronic urticaria (CU) is a common and easily recurring skin disease in the world. Many trials have shown that autologous whole-blood or autologous serum acupoint injection therapy is effective in treating CU. There is currently no systematic review of this therapy. The program aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of this therapy in patients with CU. Methods: Literature search will be conducted at Medline, PubMed, Excerpt Medica Database, Springer, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Chinese Scientific Journal Database, and other databases. The search date is until May 2019. We will search for popular terms including CU and this therapy. Import the literature electronically. Duplicate documents will be deleted. The primary outcome is the urticaria activity score or other validated scales. Secondary outcomes included response rate, quality of life scale, recurrence rate, and adverse events. A systematic review and search for a randomized controlled trial of this therapy for CU. Implement the Cochrane RevMan V5.3 bias assessment tool to assess bias assessment risk, data integration risk, meta-analysis risk, and subgroup analysis risk (if conditions are met). The mean difference, standard MD, and binary data will be used to represent continuous results. Results: This study will provide a comprehensive review of the available evidence for the treatment of CU with this therapy. Conclusion: This study will provide new evidence for assessing the effectiveness and side effects of this therapy for CU. Since the data is not individualized, there is no need for formal ethical approval. PROSPERO registration number: CRD42019128364.

    Abstract: Background . Acupuncture has been found to be effective for treating Bell’s palsy (BP). However, which class of BP patients will have a better response to acupuncture remains uncertain and requires investigation. Methods . We performed a secondary analysis of a multicenter, randomized, controlled trial. BP patients were randomly divided into five acupuncture treatment groups. The degree of facial nerve recovery was assessed according to the House–Brackmann grading system (HB grade). Grade I was defined as complete recovery (CR), and grades II–VI were defined as incomplete recovery (IR). The relevant patient characteristics were collected and compared between CR and IR groups by univariate and logistic regression analyses. Results . Eight-hundred twenty-six subjects were analyzed. Among these, 698 (85%) subjects had a good prognosis. No significant difference in the effectiveness of the five treatments was observed (all P 〉 0.05 ). The likelihood of IR increased by 2.2% with each one-year increase in age (odds ratio (OR) 1.022, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.005–1.038; P = 0.009 ). The likelihood of IR increased by 9% with each kg/m2 increase in BMI (OR 1.090, 95% CI 1.019–1.165; P = 0.012 ). The likelihood of IR at the recovery stage was higher than that at the acute stage (OR 7.996, 95% CI 4.570–13.991; P 〈 0.001 ), and the likelihood of IR of patients with lesions at or above the chorda tympani was higher than that of patients with lesions below the chorda tympani (OR 1.989, 95% CI 1.256–3.150; P = 0.003 ). The likelihood of IR increased by 281.7% with each unit increase in the HB grade (OR 2.817, 95% CI 2.113–3.756; P 〈 0.001 ). Conclusions . Younger patients at the acute stage of the disease with low BMIs, low initial HB grades, and lesions below the chorda tympani were more likely to respond to acupuncture.

    Abstract: The program aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of cupping in patients with chronic urticaria (CU). Methods: We will search the databases including PubMed, Medline, Embase, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Web of Science, China Science Journal Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wan-fang Database, and China Biomedical Literature Database from their inception to May 2019. In addition, we will manually search the list of medical journals as a supplement. The clinical randomized controlled trials or quasi-randomized controlled trials related to cupping for the treatment of CU will be included in the study. Data were synthesized by using a fixed-effect model or random effect model depend on the heterogeneity test. The primary outcome is the total effective rate. Secondary outcomes include skin disease quality of life index scores, adverse events, and recurrence rates. RevMan V.5.3 statistical software will be used for meta-analysis. If it is not appropriate for a meta-analysis, then a descriptive analysis will be conducted. Data synthesis will use the risk ratio and the standardized or weighted average difference of continuous data to represent the results. Results: This study will provide a comprehensive review of the available evidence to assess the effectiveness and safety of cupping for patients with CU. Conclusion: This systematic review (SR) will provide evidence to judge whether cupping is an effective intervention for patients with CU. Ethics and dissemination: The protocol of the SR does not require ethical approval because it does not involve humans. We will publish this article in peer-reviewed journals and presented at relevant conferences. Systematic review registration: PROSPERO, CRD42019137451
