Methods： Sixty cases of STC patients were evenly randomized into Methods： group and medication group. In acupuncture group, electroaoupuncture （EA, 20 Hz, continuous waves and tolerable strength） was applied to bilateral Tienshu （ST 25） for 30 min after deep puncture. The treatment was given once daily, 5 sessions every week, two weeks altogether. Patients of control group were ordered to take Lactulose （ 10mL/time, b. i. d）, two weeks altogether. Cleveland Constipation Score （CCS） and colonic transit time （COT） were used to evaluate the therapeutic effect. Results： After treatment, both COS and COT showed that the therapeutic effect of acupuncture group was significantly superior to that of medication group （P〈0.05）. Six-months＇ follow up showed that the therapeutic effect of acupuncture still maintained in 13 of the 22 cases visited, while that of control group only maintained in 1 of the 19 cases. Conclusion： The therapeutic effect of deep puncture of Tianshu （ST 25） for STC is definite and has a middle-long-term effect. The patients have no any unfavorable reactions.展开更多

METHODS: A total of 53 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a normal group and experimental group. In the experimental group, a rat model of TNBS-induced colitis was established, and the rats were then randomly divided into a model group, moxi-bustion group, moxibustion plus disodium cromoglycate (M + DC) group and moxibustion plus normal saline (M+ NS) group. Rats in the moxibustion group received suspended moxibustion at bilateral ST25 for 10 min, once a day for 7 d. Rats in the M + DC and M + NS groups were pretreated with disodium cromoglycate and normal saline at bilateral ST25, respectively, and were then concurrently subjected to the same treatment as rats in the moxibustion group. The hematoxy- lin-eosin staining method was used to observe histology of the colon and the toluidine blue-improved method was used to observe mast cells at ST25 acupoint areas. RESULTS: An improvement in colonic injury in the moxibustion group was observed and the degranulation ratio of MC at ST25 acupoint was markedly higher in the moxibustion group than in the model group (45.91 ± 11.41 vs 32.58 ± 8.28, P < 0.05). After inhibition of degranulation of MC at ST25 by disodium cromoglycate, no improvement in colon tissue injury was observed. CONCLUSION: Moxibustion exerted its effect on healing impaired colonic mucosa in rats with TNBS-induced colitis by increasing the degranulation ratio of local MC, but had little effect on the morphology of MC at ST25 acupoint.展开更多
