Methods: Eighty kids with chronic diarrhea due to food intolerance were recruited from multiple centers and divided by using the random number table into a treatment group of 40 cases and a control group of 40 cases. For both groups, based on the level of serum food-specific immunoglobulin G(Ig-G), the patients were given unified diet following the healthy diet guidance: safe, alternate, and forbidden, while the treatment group was additionally given umbilicus application with Chinese medicine. The therapeutic efficacy and symptom score of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) were observed and compared respectively after 1-week, 2-week, 4-week, and 12-week treatment. Results: The diarrhea symptoms and coupled symptoms scores dropped significantly in the two groups after treatment( all P〈0.05), and the inter-group comparisons also showed statistical significances(P〈0.05). The total effective rate was 97.5% in the treatment group versus 77.5% in the control group, and the inter-group difference was statistically significant(P〈0.05). Conclusion: The healthy diet guidance based on the food intolerance test is effective in helping treat diarrhea, while umbilicus application with Chinese medicine works better in treating diarrhea for kids with chronic diarrhea due to food intolerance and can significantly enhance the therapeutic efficacy.展开更多

Methods: A total of 98 patients with cervical radiculopathy were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group based on the random digital table. The observation group (50 cases) was treated by acupuncture plus external medicine application and the control group (48 cases) was treated by acupuncture alone. The patients received the treatment every day. Ten sessions made a course. Cervical spondylosis symptom scale was used to assess the cases before and after the treatment. The clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups after the treatment. Results: The total effective rate was 98.1% in the observation group versus 87.6% in the control group with a statistically significant difference between the two groups (P〈0.05). The cure rate was 52.0% in the observation group versus 18.8% in the control group with a significant difference between the two groups (P〈0.05). There was no significant difference in the score of cervical spondylosis symptom scale between the two groups before the treatment (P〉0.05). It increased with a significant difference in both groups after the treatment (both P〈0.05), while a significant difference was found in the results between the two groups after the treatment (P〈0.05). Conclusion: Acupuncture plus external medicine application is more effective than acupuncture alone for treating cervical radiculopathy. The method also effectively improves the clinical symptoms.展开更多
