基于呼吸补泻的穴位埋线法治疗脾虚湿阻型单纯性肥胖的临床观察

Clinical Observation of Catgut-embedding Therapy Based on Respirationinduced Reinforcing and Reducing for Treatment of Simple Obesity with Spleen Deficiency and Dampness Retention

【目的】对比观察基于呼吸补泻的穴位埋线法与电针法治疗脾虚湿阻型单纯性肥胖的临床疗效。【方法】将60例脾虚湿阻型单纯性肥胖患者随机分为穴位埋线组和电针组,每组30例。2组取穴相同,为中脘、水分、气海、关元、天枢、梁门、大横、腹结、曲池、血海、阴陵泉、丰隆、阿是穴,穴位埋线组给予基于呼吸补泻的穴位埋线法治疗(即采用常规穴位埋线治疗,进针时应用呼吸补泻法),电针组给予电针疗法治疗,4周为1个疗程,连续治疗2个疗程。观察2组患者治疗前后体质量和体质量指数(BMI)的变化情况,并评价2组临床疗效。【结果】(1)治疗2个疗程后,2组体质量和BMI均较治疗前明显下降(P<0.05),但2组间比较,差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05)。(2)穴位埋线组总有效率为90.0%,电针组为86.7%,2组疗效比较,差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。【结论】基于呼吸补泻的穴位埋线法与电针治疗脾虚湿阻型单纯性肥胖均有明显效果且疗效相当,患者可根据自身情况选择适合的减肥方法。

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of catgut-embedding （CE） therapy based on respiration-induced reinforcing and reducing and electro-acupuncture （EA） therapy in treating simple obesity with spleen deficiency and dampness retention. Methods Sixty simlpe obesity patients with spleen deficiency and dampness retention were randomized into CE group and EA group, 30 cases in each group. The acupoints selected for the two groups were the same, and the points were Zhongwan, Shuifen, Qihai, Guanyuan, Tianshu, Liangmen, Daheng, Fujie, Quchi, Xuehai, Yinlingquan, Fenglong, and Ashi. CE group was given CE therapy with the needling for CE therapy referred to the respiration-induced reinforcing and reducing method, and EA group was given EA therapy for 2 continuous treatment courses, 4 weeks constituting one course. Body mass and body mass index （BMI） of the two groups before and after treatment were observed, and the clinical efficacy was also evaluated after treatment. Results （1） After treatment for 2 courses, body mass and BMI of the two groups were obviously decreased（P〈0.05 compared with those before treatment）, but the differences between the two groups were insignificant （P 〉 0.05）. （2） The total effective rate of CE group was 90.0% and that of EA group was 86.7%, and the difference between the two groups was insignificant （P 〉 0.05）. Conclusion The therapeutic effect of CE therapy based on respiration-induced reinforcing and reducing in treating simple obesity with spleen deficiency and dampness retention is similar to that of EA therapy, and the patients can choose anyone of them for loosing body weight according to the preference.
