Methods: A total of 90 eligible GERD cases were randomly allocated into three groups, 30 in each group. Patients in the EA group were treated with EA, patients in the radiofrequency group were treated with Stretta radiofrequency, and patients in the observation group were treated with EA combined with Stretta radiofrequency. Assessment was made after a course of treatment. Results: The recovery, improvement and failure cases and total effective rate in the EA group were 2, 18, 10 and 67.7% respectively, versus 13, 13, 4 and 86.7% in the radiofrequency group and 20, 9, 1 and 96.7% in the observation group. The therapeutic efficacy in the observation group was significantly better than that in the other two groups(P<0.01). After treatment, symptom scores of regurgitation, heartburn and substernal burning pain in all three groups were significantly reduced(P<0.05); the reduction in the observation group was more significant than that in the other two groups(P<0.05), and the reduction in the radiofrequency group was more significant than that in the EA group(P<0.05). After treatment, the contents of MTL and GAS in all three groups were increased; and the increase in the observation group was more significant than that in the other two groups(P<0.05). Conclusion: EA combined with Stretta radiofrequency treatment can significantly improve the clinical effect of GERD patients, improve regurgitation, heartburn and substernal burning pain and increase the contents of MTL and GAS.展开更多
