Résumé

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To compare the clinical efficacy differences between acupoint plaster therapy with midnight-noon ebb-flow hour-prescription method and traditional acupoint plaster therapy for senile osteoporosis (SOP).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>With randomized controlled blind design, 76 SOP patients with deficiency of liver and kidney syndrome were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, 38 cases in each one. Based on oral administration of caltrate D, the patients in the observation group were treated with acupoint plaster therapy with midnight-noon ebb-flow hour-prescription method at Yingu (KI 10), Taixi (KI 3), Dazhong (KI 4), Fuliu (KI 7) and Zhiyin (BL 67), while the patients in the control group were treated with traditional acupoint plaster therapy. Each plaster therapy lasted for 6 h, once a day; there was an interval of 2 d after consecutive 5-day treatment; 4 weeks were taken as one course, and totally 2 courses were given. Visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) were used to evaluate the pain and dysfunction before intervention, after 4 weeks and 8 weeks intervention. Osteoporosis symptom rating sale and quality of life questionnaire of the European foundation for Osteoporosis (QUALEFFO-41) were adopted to evaluate the TCM syndrome and quality of life before and after 8-week intervention.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All the outcomes were significantly improved after treatment in the two groups (<0.01,<0.05); after 4 weeks and 8 weeks of treatment, the VAS and ODI in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (all<0.05). Repeated ANOVA indicated the VAS and ODI were significant in group effect, time effect and interaction effect (all<0.01). Further comparison showed that VAS and ODI at later time points were lower than those in the early time points (all<0.01). After the treatment, the scores of TCM syndrome and QUALEFFO-41 in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (all<0.05). The effective rate was 85.7% (30/35) in the observation group, which was superior to the effective rate in the control group[74.3%(26/35),<0.05].</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The acupoint plaster therapy with midnight-noon ebb-flow hour-prescription method is superior to traditional acupoint plaster therapy in improving pain, dysfunction, TCM syndrome and quality of life in SOP patients; in addition, its clinical efficacy is significant.</p>

Résumé

Objective To explore the effects of acupoint application of midnight-noon ebb-flow with hour-prescription of points on dysfunction for sufferers with senile osteoporosis(SOP).Methods In this study,76 patients with SOP in clinic in this hospital were recruited and randomly divided into the experimental group(n=38) and the control group(n=38) in accordance with random number table.Both were on the basic treatment of Caltrate D.The experimental group performed acupoint application of midnight-noon ebb flow with hour-prescription of points,while the control one performed common acupoint application.Oswestry Disability Index(ODI) was used to evaluate the dysfunction before,after 4 weeks and 8 weeks of intervention.SF-36 was adopted to evaluate the patients' quality of life before and after 8 week's intervention.Results The ODI scores of the experimental group after 4 weeks and 8 weeks were lower than those of the control group(P<0.01).Repeated ANOVA indicated that the scores of ODI in group effect,time effect and interaction effect were of statistical significance(P<0.01).Further comparison showed that the scores of ODI in three different time sections suggested that the latter time point were lower than those of the former time point(P<0.01).The scores of eight dimensions of SF-36 after the intervention of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The acupoint application of midnight noon ebb flow-with hour-prescription of points can effectively improve the dysfunction whose curative effect enhanced with time increasing and improve the quality of life.
