Methods sixty female patients of simple obesity were randomly divided into two groups: an electroacupuncture group and a combined group. Each group had 30 patients treated respectively with electroacupuncture and electroacupuncture therapy combined with auricular point pressing therapy. The changes of the body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage (F%), and waist-hip ratio (WHR) were observed to evaluate the effect of loosing weight. Results Compared with the scores before treatment, the BMI, F%, WHR level in two groups dropped ( all P〈0.01 ) in all 60 patients. And compared with the electroacupuncture group, the combined group dropped more obviously ( P〈0.05, P〈0.01 ) . Conclusion The effects of electroacupuncture therapy and electroacupuncture combined with auricular plaster therapy on simple obesity were both remarkable, but more in the combined group, so it indicates that the combined therapy is better than single therapy.展开更多
