Clinical Study on Treatment of Simple Obesity Due to Spleen Deficiency by Acupuncture-moxibustion

摘要

Objective: To investigate the clinical effect of acupuncture-moxibustion therapy on simple obesity due to spleen deficiency. Method: Sixty-eight cases of simple obesity due to spleen deficiency syndrome, including internal dampness due to spleen deficiency, qi deficiency of lung-spleen, yang deficiency of spleen-kidney, were randomly allocated into two groups, treatment group (36 cases) and control group (32 cases). The former group was treated with warm needling moxibustion method, and the latter was treated with electroacupuncture. The therapeutic effect and body weight (BW) were observed, respectively. Result: There was a significant difference between the two groups in the total effective rate (P<0.05); there was a significant difference between the two groups in the decrease of BW (P<0.01), furthermore, the long-term effect in warm needling moxibusiton group was better than that in the electroacupuncture group. Conclusion: The effect of needle wanning moxibustion therapy on simple obesity due to spleen deficiency is accurate, and it is worth to spread.%目的:探讨针灸治疗脾虚型单纯性肥胖症的临床疗效.方法:将68例脾虚型单纯性肥胖症(包括脾虚湿阻、肺脾气虚、脾肾阳虚3型)随机分成治疗组36例,对照组32例.治疗组采用温针灸治疗,对照组采用电针治疗,对其疗效及体重指标进行观察.结果:两组的总有效率相比,差异有显著性意义(P<0.05);治疗组与对照组体重下降值存在显著性差异(P<0.01),且治疗组的远期疗效优于对照组.结论:温针灸治疗脾虚型单纯性肥胖症疗效确切且持久,值得推广.
