Methods One hundred and twenty-five cases were randomly divided into warm needling moxibustion group （42 cases）, acupuncture group （41 cases） and western medicine group （42 cases）. Of which, in warm needling moxibustion group, acupuncture combined with warming acupuncture were provided①puncture on Shènshū（肾俞 BL 23）, Gānshū （肝俞BL 18） and Zhìbiān （秩边BL 54） without retention of needles,②Guānyuán （关元CV 4）, Zhō ngjí （ 中极CV 3）, Yīnlíngquán （ 阴陵 GB 34） and Sānyīnjiāo （三阴交 SP 6） ,with warming acupuncture, once a day; in acupuncture group, the prescriptions and needling technique were the same as those in warm needling moxibustion group, without moxibustion; in western medicine group, Cernilton was applied twice a day, one pill for each time. After one course treatment, the therapeutic effects and NIH-Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index （NIH-CPSI） of 3 groups were compared. Results The total effective rate was 88. 10% in warm needling moxibustion group, 63.41% in acupuncture group, and 66.67% in western medicine group. The clinical effect in warm needling moxibustion group was superior to that in either acupuncture group or western medicine group （both P〈0.05）. The score of NIH-CPSI was 11.92 ±7.11 in warm needling moxibustion group, 16.08±6.83 in acupuncture group, and 15.66±5.88 in western medicine group. The score of each group was obviously reduced （both P〈0.01 ） after treatments, in which, the reduction in warm needling moxibustion group was most obvious （both P〈0.0t）. Conclusion A good therapeutic effect of chronic non-bacterial prostatitis was received by warm needling moxibustion.展开更多
