Clinical Research On Simple Obesity Treated By The Acupuncture Treatment Of Jianpi Jiangzhi

Objective Observe the clinical efficacy and blood lipids changes of the spleen dampness obesity patients treated by the acupuncture treatment of Jianpi jiangzhi.Methods Collected61obesity patients who were treated in the acupuncture clinic of our hospital from March2011to October2011. The61obesity patients were divided randomly and equally into two groups, including30cases as the treatment group and31cases as the contrast group. The cases of the treatment group were treated by the acupuncture treatment of Jianpi jiangzhi addition and subtraction(Neiting, Gongsun, Zusanli, Zhongwan, Fenglong), and the cases of the contrast group treated by the acupuncture treatment of eight points around umbilicus(bilateral Huaroumen, Tianshu, Wailing, and Shuifen, Yinjiao). Ten days for a course, three courses of treatment. Measured body weight, BMI, waist girth, buttocks girth and blood lipids before treatment and after three courses of treatment. The datas were analyzed by statistical software SPSS16.0for windows.Results①The body weight, BMI, waist girth, buttocks girth of both of the two groups had statistically differences before treatment and after three courses of treatment (P<0.05). The toal cholesterol(TC) and triacylglycerol(TG) of the treatment group had statistically differences before treatment and after three courses of treatment(P<0.05), while the high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C) had no statistically differences (P>0.05). These four indexes of the control group all had no statistically differences (P>0.05).②After three courses of treatment, the total clinical effective rate of the two groups had statistically differences (P<0.05).③After three courses of treatment, the body weight and buttocks girth of the two groups had statistically differences (P<0.05), while the BMI had statistically significant differences(P<0.01), but had no statistically differences of the waist girth (P>0.05). The TC and TG of them had statistically differences (P<0.05), while the HDL-C and LDL-C had no statistically differences (P>0.05).Conclusion The acupuncture treatment of Jianpi jiangzhi is more effective than the acupuncture treatment of eight points around umbilicus for the spleen dampness obesity patients. It has an advantage in reduce the patients’ body weight, BMI, buttocks girth, but has no difference in the waist girth. Moreover, the TC and TG can be decreased by the acupuncture treatment of Jianpi jiangzhi. Above all, we should base on the dialectical point selection when treat the spleen dampness obesity patients.
