针刺与西药治疗腹泻型肠易激综合征疗效对照观察(英文)

Controlled observation on the efficacy of acupuncture and western medicine on diarrhea-type irritable bowel syndrome

目的:比较疏肝健脾法针刺与西药治疗腹泻型肠易激综合征的疗效差异。方法:将70例患者随机分为针刺组、西药组,每组35例。针刺组取天枢、足三里、上巨虚、三阴交、太冲等穴行常规针刺,并在双侧天枢加电针刺激,每日1次,每周治疗3～4次;西药组口服匹维溴铵(得舒特),每次50 mg,每日3次,均4周为一疗程。分别于治疗前、1个疗程后观察两组患者临床症状积分及肠易激综合征生活质量评价量表(IBS-QOL)评分,并评定两组疗效及复发率。结果:治疗后两组症状积分、IBS-QOL评分均显著改善(均P<0.01),且针刺组的改善程度优于西药组(均P<0.01);针刺组有效率为94.3%(33/35),优于西药组的77.1%(27/35,P<0.01);3个月后针刺组复发率为36.4%(12/33),明显低于西药组的72.0%(18/25,P<0.01)。结论:疏肝健脾法针刺治疗腹泻型肠易激综合征疗效优于西药匹维溴铵,可明显改善患者生活质量,且复发率低。

Objective To compare the difference in the therapeutic effects on diarrhea- type irritable bowel syndrome （D-IBS） between acupuncture based on soothing the liver and strengthening the spleen and western medicine. Methods Seventy cases were randomized into an acupuncture group and a western medicine group, 35 cases in each one. In the acupuncture group, the conventional acupuncture was applied at Tianshu {天枢 ST 25）, Zusanli （足三里 ST 36）, Shangjuxu {上巨虚 ST 37）, Sanyinjiao （三阴交 SP 6）, Taichong （太冲 LR 3） and so on. Electric stimulation was supplemented at bilateral ST 25. The treatment was given once a day, 3-4 treatments in a week. In the western medicine group, pinaverium bromide （dicetel） was prescribed for oral administration, 50 mg each time, three times a day. Four weeks made one session in the two groups. Separately, before treatment and after 1 session treatment, the integral of clinical symptom and the score in the scale of the quality of life measure for irritable bowel syndrome （IBS-Q OL） were observed for the patients in the two groups. The efficacy and recurrence rate were assessed in the two groups. Results The symptom integral and IBS-QOL score in the two groups were improved significantly after treatment Call P〈0.01）, and the improvements in the acupuncture group were superior to that in the western medicine group （P〈0.01）. The effective rate was 94.3% {33/35） in the acupuncture group, which was superior to 77.1% （27/35） in the western medicine group （P〈0.01）. In 3 months, the recurrence rate was 36.4% （12/33） in the acupuncture group, which was lower apparently than 72.0% （18/25） in the western medicine group （P〈O.01）. Conclusion Acupuncture therapy based on soothing the liver and strengthening the spleen achieves the superior efficacy on D-IBS as compared with western medication, pinaverium bromide. This therapy improves apparently the quality of life of the patients and is lower in recurrence rate.
