Clinical Efficacy Observation on Dysmenorrhea of Cold-damp Stagnation Type with Graphene Thermotherapy Based on the Idea of TCM "Preventive Treatment of Disease"

[Objectives] To explore the clinical efficacy of graphene waist protector on dysmenorrhea of cold-damp stagnation type.[Methods]150 patients with cold-damp stagnation type were randomly divided into 3 groups: 50 cases in the experimental group( using graphene waist protector),49 cases in the blank group( using the waist protector for removing the heating plate) and 51 cases in the control group( taking the Tongjingbao granules). After intervening for 3 menstrual cycles,visual analogue scale and the COX menstrual symptom scale were used to evaluate the clinical efficacy of graphene waist protector. [Results] The clinical effective rate of dysmenorrhea in experimental group was 64. 00%,while that of control group was 72. 54%. With the effective rate of symptoms,the test group was 56. 00% and the control group was 64. 70%; VAS dysmenorrhea visual score,duration of dysmenorrhea,severity of COX dysmenorrhea and duration of symptoms after intervention were significantly decreased in both experimental group and control group,the differences were statistically significant( P < 0. 05); for the differences of the scores before and after the intervention: the differences of the experimental group and the control group were statistically significant( P < 0. 05) compared with those of the blank group. There was no significant difference between experimental group and control group( P > 0. 05). [Conclusions] Graphene belt of experimental group and Tongjingbao granules of control group both have therapeutic effects on dysmenorrhea of cold-damp stagnation type. Graphene waist protector can relieve the pain and its accompanying symptoms in patients with primary dysmenorrhea of cold-damp stagnation type.

壮医药线点灸疗法对寒湿凝滞型痛经大鼠NO、ET-1的影响

目的:观察壮医药线点灸疗法对痛经模型大鼠一氧化氮(NO)、内皮素1(ET-1)的影响,探讨其治疗效应的可能机制。方法:100只雌性SD大鼠随机分为正常对照组(A)、模型组(B)、壮医药线点灸组(C)、月月舒组(D)、针刺组(E),C组、D组、E组持续干预1周,比较各组大鼠的扭体反应潜伏期和30 min扭体次数,并分别检测大鼠血浆和子宫匀浆中NO、ET-1的表达水平。结果:(1)A组无扭体,与B组相比,C、D、E组首次扭体潜伏期明显延长,30 min扭体次数减少(P<0.01);C、D、E组扭体次数差异无统计学意义(P>0.05),但与D组相比,C组扭体潜伏期延长(P<0.01),且3组中C组扭体抑制率最高。(2)与A组比较,C组、D组、E组大鼠NO、ET-1含量无统计学意义(P>0.05);与B组比较,C组、D组、E组ET-1值显著降低,NO显著增加(P<0.01);C、D、E 3组间NO、ET-1值比较无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论:壮医药线点灸疗法治疗寒湿凝滞型痛经的作用机制可能与增加大鼠NO水平、降低ET-1水平有关。

隔药饼灸治疗寒湿凝滞型原发性痛经临床研究

目的:观察隔药饼灸治疗寒湿凝滞型原发性痛经的临床疗效。方法:120例确诊为寒湿凝滞型原发性痛经患者随机分为治疗组和对照组各60例,治疗组采用隔药饼灸,对照组口服布洛芬缓释胶囊(芬必得),观察对比两组治疗前后的临床症状。结果:治疗组有效率为93.33%,对照组有效率为85.00%,两组比较,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);两组治疗前后的疼痛积分比较,差异均具有统计学意义(P<0.01),两组比较,差异无显著统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论:隔药饼灸治疗寒湿凝滞型原发性痛经疗效显著,且无不良反应。
