ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To observe therapeutic effect of drug-separated moxibustion at Shenque (CV 8) for treatment of infantile autumn diarrhea.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>One hundred and thirty-six cases were randomly divided into an obser vation group and a control group, 68 cases in each group. The observation group were treated with drug-separated moxibustion at Shenque (CV 8) and the control group with oral administration of Smecta. The mean diarrhea-stopping time, the negative conversion rate of Human Rotavirus antigen in stool after treatment for 72 h, and the markedly-effective rate and the total effective rate were observed after treatment for 6 days in the twO groups.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The markedly-effective rate and the total effective rate were 79.4% and 94.1% in the observation group and 35.3% and 75.0% in the control group, respectively, with very significantly or significantly difference between the two groups (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05); the mean diarrhea-stopping time in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group (P < 0.01); the negative conversion rate of Human Rotavirus antigen in stool after treatment for 72 h was 88.2%0 in the observation group and 69.1% in the control group with a very significantly difference between the two groups (P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Drug-separated moxibustion at Shenque (CV 8) has a significant therapeutic effect on infantile autumn diarrhea, helps negative conversion of Human Rotavirus antigen in stool and shortens duration of disease.</p>
