Effects of Moxibustion on Hemoglobin and Immunoglobulin in Cervical Cancer Patients Undergoing Radiotherapy

Objective： To observe the effects of moxibustion on hemoglobin and immunoglobulin in cervical cancer patients on radiotherapy. Methods： Sixty-six patients with cervical cancer were randomized into a moxibustion group （n=36） and a control group （n=30）, and underwent the same radiotherapy; during the radiotherapy period, the moxibustion group was given moxibustion at Shenque （CV 8） and Sanyinjiao （SP 6）, and the control group was given no other treatment. Agar diffusion method was employed to detect the concentrations of hemoglobin and immunoglobulin in peripheral blood before and after treatment. Results： After eight-week treatment, the concentrations of hemoglobin and immunoglobulin were higher in the moxibustion group than those in the control group, with a significant difference in the concentration of IgG between the two groups （P〈0.01）. Conclusion： Moxibustion can increase the concentrations of hemoglobin and immunoglobulin in cervical cancer patients on radiotherapy to improve the immunity.

不同灸治时程对红细胞免疫功能影响的比较

采用不同灸治时程治疗阳虚小鼠模型 ,显示出不同灸治时程对阳虚小鼠模型的红细胞C3b受体花环率、红细胞免疫复合物花环率的影响存在差异。灸 1 5min可显著提高阳虚小鼠红细胞C3b受体花环率、红细胞免疫复合物花环率 ,灸 5min、2 5min则无显著作用。

灸法治疗难治性肺结核的红细胞免疫学观察

本文旨在观察艾灸调节慢性难治性肺结核［ＣＩＰＴ］患者的红细胞免疫功能变化，并考察有关循环免疫复合物含量及Ｔ淋巴细胞亚群比值变化。结果表明：难治性肺结核患者的红细胞免疫功能低下，经艾灸治疗后，红细胞免疫功能得到明显改善。推测艾灸的主要作用环节是在某些因子介导下，对血清中红细胞免疫粘附促进因子或抑制因子的良性调节作用。Ｐ＜０．０１（治疗组治疗前后对比）上表提示，患者治疗前红细胞Ｃ３ｂ受体花环率（ＲＢＣ—Ｃ３ｂ）与红细胞免疫复合物均低于正常值。红细胞免疫粘附促进率（ＲＦＥＲ）低于正常值，而红细胞免疫粘附抑制率（ＲＦＩＲ）高于正常值。治疗后上述指标有明显改善，治疗前后比较有显著性差异。进一步探讨患者治疗前后红细胞Ｃ３ｂ受体花环率与促进率和抑制率之间的相关关系。结果表明，花环率与促进率呈正相关关系：治疗前ｒ＝０．５９８７，Ｐ＜０．０１，治疗后ｒ＝０．６８１６，Ｐ＜０．００１；花环率与抑制率呈负相关关系：治疗前ｒ＝－０．５５４０，Ｐ＜０．０１，治疗后ｒ＝－０．７１４０，Ｐ＜０．００１。３．２血清循环免疫复合物（ＣＩＣ）含量测定见表２。表２ＣＩＣ含量测定结核患者治疗前后ＣＩＣ阳性率差别显著，经统计学处理，Ｘ＝８．２８６，?

艾灸对宫颈癌放疗患者血红蛋白的影响

目的 观察艾灸对放疗患者血红蛋白的影响。方法 66例宫颈癌患者随机分为艾灸组和空白对照组 ,放疗期间 ,艾灸组隔日艾条灸神阙、足三里或三阴交 ,在放疗第 2、4、6、8星期测定患者外周血红蛋白含量。结果和结论 放疗结束时 ,对照组血红蛋白与放疗前比较明显下降 ,艾灸组则明显高于对照组。提示艾灸可提高宫颈癌患者外周血红蛋白的含量。
