The Acupuncture point prescription is as follows: Sishencong (EX-HN1), bilateral Shuaigu (GB8), bilateral Yangbai (GB14), bilateral Sibai (ST2), bilateral Fengchi (GB20), bilateral Fenglong (ST40), bilateral Hegu (LI4), and bilateral Taichong (LR3).
Points will be selected based on Traditional Chinese Medicine syndrome differentiation, with location standardized according to the 2006 National Standard of the People's Republic of China (GB/T 12346-2006), "Nomenclature and Location of Acupuncture Points."
After routine skin disinfection, Sishencong will be obliquely needled to a depth of 0.5 cun, and the remaining points will be perpendicularly needled to a depth of 1 cun.
The twirling manipulation will be applied until the needling sensation (Deqi) is locally achieved.
Needles will be retained for 30 minutes.
Treatment will be administered once daily, 5 times per week, for a total of 8 weeks (40 sessions).
Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT) is recommended as a first-line intervention by organizations such as the American Academy of Neurology.It consists of several core components: Psychoeducation,Awareness Training,Competing Response Training,Function-Based Intervention and Social Support and Relapse Prevention

Yale Global Tic Severity Scal(YGTSS)
Tidsramme: baseline,4 weeks,8 weeks,6 months
|
The Yale Global Tic Severity Scale (YGTSS) Score is designed to assess the severity of symptoms in children with TD by scoring the type of tics, frequency of tics, intensity of tics, complexity of tics, degree of interference with normal behavior, and degree of impairment of social functioning in the child, with a total score ranging from 0-75, with higher scores indicating greater severity of the child's condition.

MR-DTI
Tidsramme: baseline,8 weeks
|
Magnetic Resonance Diffusion Tensor Imaging(MR-DTI).Scanning will employ a single-shot echo-planar imaging sequence with 15 diffusion gradient directions.
Software such as DTI Studio will be used to calculate the Mean Diffusivity (MD), Fractional Anisotropy (FA), and Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC) values for each subject's corpus callosum, bilateral globus pallidus, thalamus, putamen, and caudate nucleus.
