METHODS: A crossover double-blind formula-controlled trial was carried out on 59 students (age range: 5-15 years) of a public school in Belo Horizonte, MG, Brazil, presenting a FCIC diagnostic, according to Roma Ⅲ criteria. The students were randomized in two groups to receive a goat yogurt supplemented with 109 colony forming unit/mL Bifidobacterium longum (B.longum) (probiotic) daily or only the yogurt for a period of 5 wk (formula). Afterwards, the groups were intercrossed for another 5 wk. Defecation frequency, stool consistency and abdominal and defecation pain were assessed.RESULTS: Both treatment groups demonstrated improvement in defecation frequency compared to baseline. However, the group treated with probiotic showed most signif icant improvement in the f irst phase of the study. An inversion was observed after crossing over, resulting in a reduction in stool frequency when this group was treated by formula. Probiotic and formula improved stool consistency in the f irst phase of treatment, but the improvement obtained with probiotic was significantly higher (P = 0.03). In the second phase of treatment, the group initially treated with probiotic showed worseningstool consistency when using formula. However, the difference was not signif icant. A signif icant improvement in abdominal pain and defecation pain was observed with both probiotic and formula in the first phase of treatment, but again the improvement was more signif icant for the group treated with B. longum during phase I (P < 0.05). When all data of the crossover study were analyzed, significant differences were observed between probiotic yogurt and yogurt only for defecation frequency (P = 0.012), defecation pain (P = 0.046) and abdominal pain (P = 0.015).展开更多

By constipation diary of patients, frequency of going to stool, straining severity, time of once bowl evacuation, a sense of incomplete bowel emptying, stool quality, a sense of defecation and the Patient Assessment of Constipation Quality of Life questionnaire （PAC-QOL）, as well as the changes before and after treatment were observed. Results After treatment, the apparent improvements were achieved in frequency of going to stool, straining severity, time of once bowl evacuation, a sense of incomplete bowel emptying, a sense of defecation and score of PAC-QOL as compared with those before treatment （all P〈0.01）. The total effective rate was 67.7% （61/70）. The acupuncture effieacies were various on CFC of different dynamic mechanisms. The efficacy on slow transit constipation （STC） was superior to that caused by spastic pelvic floor syndrome （SPFS-C） （P〈0.05）, the efficacy on constipation caused by irritable bowel syndrome （IBS-C） was superior to that on either SPFS-C or constipation caused by relaxant pelvic floor syndrome （RPFS-C） （both P〈0.05）. Of 52 eases in effective follow-up, 1 month after treatment, 3 eases were cured, 6 eases markedly effective, 23 eases effective, and 20 cases failed; 3 months after treatment, 3 eases were cured, 5 eases markedly effective, 16 cases effective and 28 cases failed. Conclusion Acupuncture has definite efficacy on CFC with definite etiology, loci and diagnostic classification. But, the efficacies are different due to various dynamic mechanisms. A further optimized treatment program is required to improve the efficacy on SPFS-C and RPFS-C.展开更多

Methods One hundred cases of constipation were randomly divided into an acupuncture-moxibustion group and a simple acupuncture group with 50 cases for each group. Two groups of acupoints were adopted every other day alternatively for both groups. Point group 1： Tiansha （天枢ST 25）, Daheng （大横 SP 15）, Qihai （气海 CV 6）, Guanyuan （关元 CV 4）, Ztisanli （足三里 ST 36）, Shangjhxu （上巨虚 ST 37） and Sanyinjiao （三阴交 SP 6）. Point group 2： Zhsngliao （中髎 BL 33）, Xiatliao （下髎 BL 34）, Dachangsha （大肠俞 BL 25）, Shenshu （肾俞 BL 23） and Pisha （脾俞 BL 20）. Acupuncture was the only therapy adopted for acupuncture group on all the above mentioned points. While, for acupuncture-moxibustion group, moxibustion with grain-shaped moxa cones was applied on Qihai （所海 CV 6）, Zusatnli （足三里 ST 36）, Datchangshu （大肠俞 BL 25） and Pishu （脾俞 BL 20）, and acupuncture was applied on the rest points. Clinical therapeutic effect, clinical score of constipation, quality of life and score of psychological symptoms were observed before and after the treatment. Results The total effective rate in acupuncture-moxihustion group was 74.0%（37/50）, which was superior to that （52.0%, 26/50） in acupuncture group （P〈0.05）. The clinical scores of constipation, quality of life and scores of psychological symptoms of both groups improved after the treatment. For clinical scores of constipation, degree of difficulty in bowel movement, duration of defecation, abdominal pain, difficulty in exsufflation, incomplete sensation after defecation, obstruction sense of anus, purgative prescription dependence, score of life quality and psychological symptoms of acupuneture-moxibustion group were all better than those of simple acupuncture group （P〈0.05, P〈0.01）. Conclusion The combined therapy of both moxibustion with grain-shaped moxa cones and acupuncture is safe and effective in treatment of chronic functional constipation, and the effect is superior to simple therapy of acupuncture.展开更多

文摘目的 探讨与标准大容量聚乙二醇电解质散(4L PEG-ELS)方案相比,低容量PEG-ELS联合首荟通便胶囊(SHLC)方案对慢性功能性便秘(CFC)患者结肠镜检查前肠道准备的有效性和安全性。方法 采用单中心、观察者盲法、随机对照试验方法,招募2021年1月-2021年12月在山东大学齐鲁医院(青岛)接受结肠镜检查的CFC患者282例,随机分配到SHLC+2 L PEG-ELS组、SHLC+3 L PEG-ELS组和4 L PEG-ELS组。观察患者波士顿肠道准备评分(BBPS)和肠道准备耐受性。结果 最终纳入240例患者。SHLC+2 L PEG-ELS、SHLC+3 L PEG-ELS和4 L PEG-ELS组的BBPS分别为(6.22±1.09)、(6.26±0.97)和(7.06±0.63)分,差异无统计学意义(P> 0.05)。节段性BBPS显示,3组患者在左半结肠[(2.32±0.72)、(2.41±0.64)和(2.58±0.59)分]、中段结肠[(2.18±0.83)、(2.26±0.76)和(2.44±0.81)分]和右半结肠[(1.67±0.71)、(1.72±0.67)和(2.23±0.66)分]方面比较,差异均无统计学意义(P> 0.05)。梅奥耐受性问卷显示4 L PEG-ELS组患者耐受性和再次肠道准备意愿均差于SHLC+3 L PEGELS组和SHLC+2 L PEG-ELS组(P=0.007和P=0.021)。与4 L PEG-ELS组相比,SHLC+2 L PEG-ELS组和SHLC+3 L PEG-ELS组服药后首次排便间隔时间提前(P=0.036),睡前排便次数增加(P=0.035),但在总排便次数方面比较,差异无统计学意义(P> 0.05)。3组患者肠道准备后不良反应发生率无明显差异(P> 0.05)。结论 对于CFC患者的肠道准备,低容量PEG-ELS联合SHLC可能是一种新颖的策略,它提高了患者耐受性和依从性,肠道准备效果和安全性与4 L PEG-ELS标准方案相当。
