Dose-effect Relationships Study Of Warming Needle For The Spleen And Stomach Deficency Type Of Chronic Non-atrophy Gastritis

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of different number of cones warming needle for the spleen and stomach deficency type of chronic non-atrophy gastritis,and to explore the dose-effect relationship of moxibustion.Methods84 cases of the spleen and stomach deficency type of chronic non-atrophy gastritis were randomly divided into 1 time group,2 times group and 3 times group.On the basis of routine treatment,they were treated with different numbers of cones warming needle once every other day,six times in total.Before and after treatment,the scores of TCM Syndrome Scale and Patient Reported Outcome were observed,collected data for statistical analysis,and evaluated the TCM syndromes and quality of life of patients.ResultsAmong the 84 patients,7 cases dropped off,including 2 cases in 1 time group,1 case dropped off due to fainting,1 case dropped off due to insufficient treatment;3 cases dropped off due to insufficient treatment in 2 times group;2 cases dropped off in 3 times group,1 case dropped off due to scald,1 case dropped off due to insufficient treatment,and 77 cases were finally included in the effective cases,including 26 cases in 1 time group,25 cases in 2 times group,and 26 cases in 3 times group.①There was no significant difference in the baseline data among the three groups(P>0.05).②Before treatment,there was no significant difference(P>0.05)in the scores of TCM Syndrome Scale and Patient Reported Outcome scale.③After treatment,compared with before treatment,the scores of TCM Syndrome Scale and Pro scale decreased significantly(P<0.05);at the same time,2 times group and 3 times group was lower than 1 time group significantly(P<0.05);compared with the scores of TCM Syndrome Scale,2 times group and 3 times group was lower than 1 time group significantly on the symptom of pain and warm,chills(P<0.05).ConclusionWarming needle can effectively improve TCM Syndrome Scale and Pro score of the spleen and stomach deficency type of chronic non-atrophy gastritis.The 2 times group and 3 times group are better than that of 1 time group,especially in improving the symptoms represented by“deficiency”and“cold”such as pain and warm,chills.
