Cold-damp coagulation and stagnation type dysmenorrhea models were established. In group C,mild moxibustion on "Shenque(神阙 CV 8) " and"Guanyuan(关元 CV 4)" was carried out from the time after modeling on the 8 th day for 3 consecutive days. In group D, mild moxibustion was given as the same methods with group C after injection with oxytocin on the 11 th day. In group E, mild moxibustion was given as the same methods from the time after modeling on the 8 th day to that after injection with oxytocin on the 11 th day for 4 consecutive days. The writhing behavior and the changes in levels of ET-1 and NO in uterine tissues of rats with dysmenorrhea in each group were observed.Results: Comparison of the latent period: compared with(4.38 ± 1.06) min in group B,the latent period of rats in group C(9.67 ± 1.32) min,group D(11.78 ± 1.30) min and group E(15.00 ± 1.22) min obviously prolonged(all p 0.01). Compared with group C, the latent period of group E obviously prolonged(p 0.01). Compared with group D, the latent period of group E obviously prolonged(p 0.01).Comparison of the writhing times: compared with(4.38 ± 1.06) in group B,the writhing times of rats in group C(9.67 ± 1.32),group D(11.78 ± 1.30) and group E(15.00 ± 1.22) reduced(all p 0.01). Compared with group C,the writhing times of rats in group D and group E reduced(both p 0.01). Compared with group D, the writhing times in group E reduced(p 0.05). Comparison of the total writhing score:compared with(4.38 ± 1.06) in group B,the total writhing score of rats in group C(9.67±1.32),group D(11.78 ± 1.30) and group E(15.00 ± 1.22) decreased(all p 0.01). Compared with group C,the total writhing score of rats in group D and group E decreased(both p 0.01). Compared with group D,the total writhing score of rats in group E decreased(p 0.05). Comparison of ET-1 level: compared with(4.80 ± 0.47) in group A,the ET-1 level in uterine tissues of rats in group B(7.57±0.69) significantly increased(P 0.01). Compared with group B, the ET-1 level in uterine tissues of rats in group C(6.20 ±0.50),group D(5.67 ±0.29) and group E(5.16±0.33) obviously decreased(all p 0.01). Compared with group C, the ET-1 level in uterine tissues of rats in group D and group E obviously decreased(p 0.05, p 0.01). Compared with group D, the ET-1 level in uterine tissues of rats in group Eobviously decreased(p 0.05). Comparison of NO level: compared with(6.63±1.83) in group A, the NO level in uterine tissues of rats in group B(1.62 ±0.58) significantly decreased(p 0.01). Compared with group B, the NO level in uterine tissues of rats in group C(3.60±0.59),group D(4.77 ±0.67) and group E(5.99±0.63) obviously increased(all p 0.01). Compared with group C,the NO level in uterine tissues of rats in group Dand group E obviously increased(p 0.05, p 0.01). Compared with group D, the NO level in uterine tissues of rats in group E obviously increased(p 0.01).Conclusion: The analgesic effect of mild moxibustion at different intervention times on cold-damp coagulation and stagnation type dysmenorrhea rats was different, which was the most significant in pre-instant moxibustion group. One of the mechanisms of action may be related with the adjustment of abnormal levels of ET-1 and NO.展开更多

文摘Objective: To observe the differences in analgesic effect of moxibustion at different intervention times on dysmenorrhea rats and explore its effect mechanism.Methods: Forty-five female Wistar rats were randomly divided into blank control group(group A), model group(group B), pre-moxibustion group(group C), instant moxibustion group(group D) and pre-instant moxibustion group(group E),with 9 rats in each group. Cold-damp coagulation and stagnation type dysmenorrhea models were established. In group C,mild moxibustion on "Shenque(神阙 CV 8) " and"Guanyuan(关元 CV 4)" was carried out from the time after modeling on the 8 th day for 3 consecutive days. In group D, mild moxibustion was given as the same methods with group C after injection with oxytocin on the 11 th day. In group E, mild moxibustion was given as the same methods from the time after modeling on the 8 th day to that after injection with oxytocin on the 11 th day for 4 consecutive days. The writhing behavior and the changes in levels of ET-1 and NO in uterine tissues of rats with dysmenorrhea in each group were observed.Results: Comparison of the latent period: compared with(4.38 ± 1.06) min in group B,the latent period of rats in group C(9.67 ± 1.32) min,group D(11.78 ± 1.30) min and group E(15.00 ± 1.22) min obviously prolonged(all p 0.01). Compared with group C, the latent period of group E obviously prolonged(p 0.01). Compared with group D, the latent period of group E obviously prolonged(p 0.01).Comparison of the writhing times: compared with(4.38 ± 1.06) in group B,the writhing times of rats in group C(9.67 ± 1.32),group D(11.78 ± 1.30) and group E(15.00 ± 1.22) reduced(all p 0.01). Compared with group C,the writhing times of rats in group D and group E reduced(both p 0.01). Compared with group D, the writhing times in group E reduced(p 0.05). Comparison of the total writhing score:compared with(4.38 ± 1.06) in group B,the total writhing score of rats in group C(9.67±1.32),group D(11.78 ± 1.30) and group E(15.00 ± 1.22) decreased(all p 0.01). Compared with group C,the total writhing score of rats in group D and group E decreased(both p 0.01). Compared with group D,the total writhing score of rats in group E decreased(p 0.05). Comparison of ET-1 level: compared with(4.80 ± 0.47) in group A,the ET-1 level in uterine tissues of rats in group B(7.57±0.69) significantly increased(P 0.01). Compared with group B, the ET-1 level in uterine tissues of rats in group C(6.20 ±0.50),group D(5.67 ±0.29) and group E(5.16±0.33) obviously decreased(all p 0.01). Compared with group C, the ET-1 level in uterine tissues of rats in group D and group E obviously decreased(p 0.05, p 0.01). Compared with group D, the ET-1 level in uterine tissues of rats in group Eobviously decreased(p 0.05). Comparison of NO level: compared with(6.63±1.83) in group A, the NO level in uterine tissues of rats in group B(1.62 ±0.58) significantly decreased(p 0.01). Compared with group B, the NO level in uterine tissues of rats in group C(3.60±0.59),group D(4.77 ±0.67) and group E(5.99±0.63) obviously increased(all p 0.01). Compared with group C,the NO level in uterine tissues of rats in group Dand group E obviously increased(p 0.05, p 0.01). Compared with group D, the NO level in uterine tissues of rats in group E obviously increased(p 0.01).Conclusion: The analgesic effect of mild moxibustion at different intervention times on cold-damp coagulation and stagnation type dysmenorrhea rats was different, which was the most significant in pre-instant moxibustion group. One of the mechanisms of action may be related with the adjustment of abnormal levels of ET-1 and NO.
文摘Objective:To observe the time-effect relationship of moxibustion for primary dysmenorrhea(PD)due to stagnation and congelation of cold-damp,thus explore the optimal choice of moxibustion duration,and provide evidence for achieving satisfactory efficacy in moxibustion treatment.Methods:A total of 90 patients with PD due to stagnatin and congelation of cold-damp were divided into three groups by the random number table method,with 30 cases in each group.All the patients in the three groups were given moxibustion treatment at Guanyuan(CV 4),20 min in group A,40 min in group B and 60 min in group C.The changes in the pain measurement score in the three groups were observed after treatment.Results:After treatment,there were significant differences in the clinical efficacy among the three groups(P<0.05);the clinical efficacy was better in group B and group C than that in group A(P<0.05),and that in group B was better than that in group C(P<0.05).Besides,the pain measurement score changed significantly after treatment in the three groups(all P<0.05),and the between-group differences were also statistically significant(P<0.05);the pain measurement scores in group B and group C were lower than that in group A(P<0.05),and that in group B was lower than that in group C(P<0.05).Conclusion:Given the same stimulating frequency and intervention time of moxibustion,40-minute duration demonstrates relatively better efficacy for PD due to stagnation and congelation of cold-damp.
