The Study Of Effect On Mental State Of Simple Obese People By Using Spirit Regulation Method Of Jin's Three Needle

Objective:The spirit regulation method of Jin's three needle is usually used to treat mood disorders.This study is a small sample randomized controlled trial based on the relationship between obesity and mental state.To observe the effect on the mental state as well as body indexes of simple obese people by using spirit regulation method of Jin's three needle,we discuss the probable mechanism of this method in curing both obesity and mental problem,which provide a new way to treat simple obesity by acupuncture.Methods:60 patients,aged 40 to 60 years old,diagnosed simple obesity are selected in this trial.They are randomly divided into two groups and 30 for each.The control group(Regular one)is given regular acupuncture therapy,the treatment group(Jin's three needle's one)is given Jin's three needle's way,including the Fat-three-needle,Steat-three-needle,and the spirit regulation method.Both groups are given the treatment 3 times a week,and4 weeks is one period.There are totally two periods in this research.Before and after the treatment,observing the obesity evaluation indexes of the two groups,such as body weight,waist circumference,body mass index(BMI),and the score of self-rating anxiety scale(SAS),self-rating depression scale(SDS),MCS of MOS 36 item short form health survey(SF-36),then we used SPSS statistical software for statistical analysis.Results:1.Before treatment: the general data(gender,age,height,body weight,waist circumference,body mass index)of the two groups were comparable,showing no statistical significance(P>0.05).Also,there was no statistically significant difference between the scores of anxietyself-rating scale(SAS),depression self-rating scale(SDS)and MCS of MOS36 item short form health survey(sf-36)(P>0 0.05)of both groups.Therefore,there was no significant difference in baseline data between the two groups before treatment,which means they are comparable.2.Body indexes: including body weight,BMI,waist circumference are lower in some way after the treatment.There are significant differences between before and after while the treatment group had a more obvious effect on the result than the control group.With reference to the China Guidelines on prevention and control of overweight and obesity to evaluate the clinical curative effect.In the treatment group,3 patients were cured,3 had significate effect,14 have the effective effect and 10 were invalid,which means the rate of effectiveness is 66.7%.In the control group,3 patients were cured,1 had significate difference,14 have the effective effect and12 were invalid,which means the rate of effectiveness is 60.0%.Comparing the difference between this two groups,there is no statistical significance(P>0.05).3.After the treatment,scores of SAS,which reflect the level of anxiety decreased,and the treatment group contribute more in decreasing the anxiety level than the control group.The difference is statistically significant,illustrate the effect of the treatment group to improve the symptoms of anxiety is better than the control group.Compared with the SDS score before and after treatment,the scores of depressive symptoms decreased,and there was no significant difference between the two groups in the improvement of depressive symptoms.Analyzing the MCS score of the two groups before and after treatment,both groups' score increased,indicating the improvement of living quality.Only by comparing the scores of the part,the treatment group' s effect on the improvement of mental health is superior to the control group.Conclusion:Both Jin's three needle's spirit regulation method and the regular one are proved effectively to improve body indexes,like weight,BMI,and waist circumference of simple obesity patients,as well as treat the mental factors,but the effect of treatment group is more significant,suggests that Jin's three needle's method to treat simple obesity can meanwhile treat the simple obesity and the mood disorder effectively.
