ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of siege scheme of TCM for acute cerebral infarction bowel and visceral strike (block pattern). Methods Totally 110 patients were randomly divided into TCM siege scheme group (55 cases) and control group (55 cases) by randomized parallel controlled study with foresight and multicenter. The control group was treated with the standardized treatment, and TCM siege scheme group was treated with TCM siege scheme, including mild hypothermia TCM pillow therapy, TCM rectal enema, and other multiple treatments based on the standardized treatment. The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), the time of pulling out urine tube and nasal feeding tube, and the number of tracheotomy caused by illness changes of the two groups were compared. Results The baseline data of two groups have good comparability (P>0.05). On 10, 15 d of treatment, the number of lucid people in the TCM siege scheme group was significantly more than that in the control group (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, treatment group had less number of tracheotomy, and shorter time of success pulling out urine tube and nasogastric feeding tube (P<0.05). Conclusion TCM siege scheme can improve the consciousness of ischemic stroke in patients with acute cerebral infarction bowel and visceral strike, reduce complications, shows shorter successful pull urine tube and nasogastric feeding, and provides guarantee conditions for further rehabilitation treatment.
ABSTRACT
Forty cases of hyperlipidemia were treated by herbal moxa stick moxibustion and compared with 22 cases treated by Oenothera Oil Capsules. The results showed that LipidDecreasing Herbal Moxibustion could decrease the serum cholesterol and triglyceride and elevate high-density lipoprotein and change the ratio of TC-HDL-C/HDL-C in the patients, and its therapeutic effect was better than that of the control group treated by Oenothera Oil Capsules (P ＜ 0.01). Lipid-Decreasing Herbal Moxibustion can also improve the clinical symptoms and reduce the body weight.
