| Objective:To compare the differences of clinical effects of ying-sui catgut embedding and general catgut embedding on the treatment which is on the basis of the diet and exercise intervention to patients diagnosed with simple obesity in Dampness due to spleen deficiency syndrome and evaluate their safety respectively, providing a scientific foundation for optimization and selection of clinical therapy on the treat to simple obesity with dampness due to spleen deficiency. Methods:Divided 70 patients accorded with inclusion criteria into 3 groups, namely blank group(10 cases), general catgut embedding group(30 cases) and ying-sui catgut embedding group(30 cases). Then, treating the blank group with diet and exercise control which lasts for 3 courses(4 weeks make a course).well,treating the ying-sui catgut embedding group(adopting ying-sui catgut embedding) and general catgut embedding group(adopting general catgut embedding)for 3courses(4 weeks make a course) which are going through the same intervention over diet and exercise as the blank group do by embedding catguts into 10 following acupuncture points,namely zusanli,tianshu,zhongwan,fenlong,daheng,guanyuan, qihai,daimai,yinlingquan,pishu,with each group getting catgut embedding once two weeks.observing the change of weight,BMI,F%, WC,HC as well as WHR of each group after the treatments,evaluating clinical effect respectively,comparing and analysis the date via SPASS statistics,evaluation the safety of catgut embedding therapy via pain evaluation chart and adverse reaction record chart at the same time. Results:1.The were no significant statistical difference(P<0.05) between the gender,ge,weight,BMI,F%,WC,HC,WHR of cases among the 3 groups before the treatment.2.The total effective rate of ying-sui catgut embedding group and embedding group comes as 90.00%, 80.00%,66.67% respectively after the treatment.There is significant statistical difference(P<0.05) between ying-sui catgut embedding group and embedding group,blank group.And significant statistical difference(P<0.05) also exists between general catgut embedding and blank group.3.The intra-group comparison: There are also significant statistical differences(P<0.05) when it comes to the index of weight, BMI,F%,WC,HC,WHR among the 3 groups.4.Comparison between groups:There are significant statistical differences(P<0.05) between two whichever groups.while there is no significant statistical differences between ying-sui catgut embedding group and embedding group(P>0.05) when it comes to reducing HC.5.The evaluation on the safety of catgut embedding:There are no significant statistical differences(P<0.05) between ying-sui catgut embedding group and embedding group when it comes to pain intensity and duration.no serious adverse reaction had ever happened during the two catgut embedding therapies while inflammation,in-duration and bruise came along occasional. Conclusion:Both ying-sui catgut embedding and general catgut embedding are safe and have a clinical effect on treating simple obesity which is coincident with the symptoms of dampness due to spleen deficiency in traditional Chinese medicine.And the curative effect of ying-sui catgut embedding is better than that of general catgut embedding, which is worth promotion in clinical scenario. |
