ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of midnight-noon ebb-flow needling based on individualized timing in treating senile chronic gastritis. Method Seventy-eight elderly patients with chronic gastritis were randomized into a treatment group of 39 cases and a control group of 39 cases. The treatment group was intervened by midnight-noon ebb-flow needling based on individualized timing, while the control group was by midnight-noon ebb-flow needling based on local mean solar time, 10 d as a treatment course. The clinical efficacies were observed after 2 treatment courses. Result The total effective rate was 94.9% in the treatment group versus 89.7% in the control group, and the difference was statistically insignificant (P>0.05); the recovery rates were respectively 46.2% and 28.2%, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Midnight-noon ebb-flow needling based on individualized timing can produce a significant efficacy in treating senile chronic gastritis, and is worth promoting in clinic.
