摘要
采用艾灸疗法治疗36例桥本氏甲状腺炎患者,观察患者治疗后T淋巴细胞亚群的变化及其对B细胞产生抗甲状腺自身抗体的影响。结果表明,经艾灸治疗后,患者外周血淋巴细胞OKT_4^+/OKT_8^+细胞比值和淋巴细胞分泌甲状腺抗体的水平都明显下降,而且两者的变化具有显著的相关性。作者认为,艾灸可能是通过调整T淋巴细胞亚群的比例关系来抑制B淋巴细胞产生抗甲状腺抗体的水平,从而治疗桥本氏甲状腺炎的。
36 cases of Hashimoto's thyroiditis were treated with moxibustion and the changes of T lymphocyte subsets and their effects on the secretory levels of anti-thyroid auto-antibodies by B lymphocytes were observed. The results showed that,after moxibustion treatment, the ratio of OKT 4^+/OKT 8^+ cells and the secretory level of thyroid antibodies declined remar- kably. It was also found that, there was a significant correlation between them, The author surmised from the results that moxibustion could treat the patient with Hashimoto's thyroi- ditis through the regulation of T lymphocyte subsets and therefore inhibiting B lymphocytes in producing thyroid antibodies.
