Clinical observation of moxibustion therapy based on midnight-noon ebb-flow theory for ulcerative colitis (基于子午流注理论的艾灸疗法治疗溃疡性结肠炎临床疗效观察)

Abstract

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of moxibustion therapy based on midnight-noon ebb-flow theory on ulcerative colitis. Methods Totally 70 patients with ulcerative colitis were randomly divided into two groups: the experimental group (n = 37) and the control group (n = 33), which all received the oral treatment of Qingchang Wenzhong Decoction and mesalazine granules. In addition, patients in the experimental group were treated with moxibustion therapy based on midnight-noon ebb-flow theory, while the control group patients were treated with routine moxibustion therapy for 3 months. The modified Mayo scoring system and symptom efficacy evaluation criteria were used to compare the efficacy differences between the two groups. Results After 3 months of intervention, the Mayo score of the two groups was significantly lower (P < 0. 05), and patients in the experimental group showed a lower score than that of the control group(P < 0. 05). The total effective rate of the experimental group was 94. 12%, which was significantly better than that of the control group (81. 82%) (P < 0. 05). Conclusion Moxibustion therapy based on midnight-noon ebb-flow theory can improve the severity of ulcerative colitis, relieve the clinical symptoms and improve the curative effect, which is worth further promotion. (目的 明确基于子午流注理论的艾灸疗法治疗溃疡性结肠炎患者的临床疗效。方法 将70例溃疡性结肠炎患者采用随机分为研究组(n=37)和对照组(n=33)。2组均联合应用清肠温中方及美沙拉嗪颗粒, 其中研究组采用子午流注择时艾灸治疗, 对照组实施常规艾灸治疗, 疗程均为3个月, 应用改良Mayo评分系统及症状疗效评定标准, 对比2组的疗效差异。结果 3例研究组患者被剔除。 治疗后2组患者Mayo评分较治疗前均有明显降低(P<0. 05), 且研究组明显低于对照组组(P<0. 05)。总体疗效方面, 研究组的有效率为 94. 12%, 优于对照组的81. 82% (P<0. 05)。结论 子午流注择时艾灸治疗能改善溃疡性结肠炎的严重程度, 缓解临床症状, 提高疗效。)
