Methods: Three hundred patients were randomly divided into two groups. In the treatment group, 0.6 ml granulocyte colony stimulating factor was injected into bilateral Xuehai (SP 10) and in the control group, the same dose subcutaneously into the deltoid muscle in the upper arm, once daily, three consecutive times as a course of treatment. A peripheral leukocyte count was examined at 3rd, 5th and 7th day after injection. Results and Conclusion: Under three courses of chemotherapy, therewas no significant difference in leukocyte increase between the two methods at 3rd and 5th day after treatment but a leukocyte count was significantly higher at 7th day in the treatment group than in the control group (P〈0.05). After over half courses of chemotherapy, a peripheral leukocyte count was significantly higher in the treatment group than in the control group (P〈0.05) and it did not rise to the normal at 5-7 days after treatment in the control group. It is showed that point injection raised leukocyte quickly and kept the effect long in comparison with subcutaneous injection and the adverse responses were significantly less in the treatment group than in the control group.展开更多
