Observation of Influence of Mild Moxibustion by Different Intervals on Therapeutic Effects of Patients with Primary Hyperlipidemia

目的：观察不同间隔时间温和灸对原发性高脂血症患者疗效的影响。方法：将63例患者随机分为A组（32例）和B组（31例。两组均采用温和灸神阙和双侧足三里穴，A组每天灸治1次，B组隔天灸治1次，12星期后统计两组疗效。结果：两组对降低总胆固醇（totalcholesterol，TC）有极其显著性意义（P〈0．001）；降低甘油三酯（triglyceride，TG）、低密度脂蛋白胆固醇（low densitylipoproteincholesterin，LDL—C）和升高高密度脂蛋白胆固醇（highdensitylipoproteincholesterin，HDL—C）都有显著性意义（P〈0．05）；对载脂蛋白AI（apolipoproteinAI，ApoAI）、载脂蛋白B（apolipoproteinB，ApoB）和脂蛋白[lipoproteina，Lp（a）]的改善不明显，但apoAI有较明显的升高趋势，同样apoB和Lp（a）也有较明显的降低趋势。组间比较没有统计学意义。结论：温和灸治疗原发性高脂血症可以选用隔日1次的方案。

Objective： To observe the influence of mild moxibustion by different intervals on the therapeutic effect of the patients with primary hyperlipidemia. Methods： 63 cases of patients were randomly divided into Group A （32 cases） and Group B （31 cases）. In both groups, mild moxibustion was applied bilaterally to Zusanli （ST 36）. The treatment was given once a day for group A and once every other day for group B. The therapeutic effects of the two groups were summarized after twelve weeks. Results： The two groups are remarkably significant in reducing total cholesterol （TC） （P〈0.001）, and also remarkably significant in reducing triglyceride （TG）, low density lipoprotein cholesterin （LDL-C） and in elevating high density lipoprotein cholesterin （HDL-C） （P〈0.05）; and not evident in improving apolipotroten （ApoAI）, apoliporotein B （ApoB）, and lipoprotein a [Lp （a）]; however ApoAI showed an obvious tendency to rise, and ApoB and Lp （a） showed an tendency to decrease. There is no statistic significance in comparison between the groups. Conclusion： Mild moxibustion for primary hyperlipidemia can be applied by a plan of one treatment every other day.
