[Acupuncture in the treatment of diabetic angiopathy of the lower extremities].
A course method of acupuncture (10 sessions) using corporal points of general and segmental action and some auricular points was used for therapy of the functional stage of lower limb diabetic angiopathy in 55 patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. Rheovasography, thermography and ultrasound dopplerography were carried out over time to confirm the diagnosis of insulin dependent DM and to assess therapeutic efficacy. A direct noticeable clinical effect was obtained in 78.2% of cases, determined perhaps by improved elastotonic properties of arteries of average caliber, enhanced blood outflow and regulation of lower limb vascular peripheral resistance.
