Objective: To put forward a method for assessing therapeutic effect on tinnitus and to observe the therapeutic effects of acupuncture and continuous multi-point pulse stimulation on subjective tinnitus.
Methods: Continuous multi-point pulse stimulation was given at Ermen (TE 21)/ Tinggong (SI 19)/ Tinghui (GB 2), Yifeng (TE 17), Shenting (GV 24), Baihui (GV 20), Cong'er No 1-3, etc., once every other day, thrice each week. The therapeutic effects were evaluated with a selfstipulated "tinnitus questionaire".
Results: Of the 98 cases, 11 cases were cured, 36 cases were markedly effective, 28 cases were effective and 23 cases were ineffective with a cured rate of 11.2% and a total effective rate of 76.5%.
Conclusion: Combined acupuncture and continuous multi-point pulse stimulation has a better therapeutic effect on subjective tinnitus.

Urban rail transit systems, represented by subways, have significantly alleviated the traffic pressure brought by urbanization and have addressed issues such as traffic congestion. However, as a commonly used construction method for subway tunnels, shield tunneling inevitably disturbs the surrounding soil, leading to uneven ground surface settlement, which can impact the safety of nearby buildings. Therefore, it is crucial to promptly obtain and predict the ground surface settlement induced by shield tunneling construction to enable safety warnings and evaluations.
