[A correlation study of moxibustion time and moxibustion effect of long snake moxibustion in intervention of recurrent exopathogenic diseases in patients with yang-deficiency constitution]
Abstract
Objective: To explore the time-effect relationship of long snake moxibustion in intervening recurrent exopathogenic diseases of patients with yang-deficiency constitution in different moxibustion periods and provide a scientific basis for the selection of long snake moxibustion in preventing and treating recurrent exopathogenic diseases of patients with yang-deficiency constitution.
Methods: Ninety patients with yang-deficiency constitution who met the inclusion criteria of recurrent exopathogenic diseases were randomly divided into a 30 min group, a 60 min group, and a 90 min group, with 30 cases in each group. Long snake moxibustion was applied once a week from Dazhui (GV14) to Yaoshu (GV2) for different periods (30, 60, and 90 min), 12 times (12 weeks) in total. The scores of yang-deficiency constitution quality scale and Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS) before treatment, after treatment, and six months after treatment, as well as attack times of exopathogenic diseases within one year before treatment and after treatment in the three groups, were observed and recorded.
Results: After treatment and 6 months after treatment, the yang-deficiency quality scale scores and FSS scores of the three groups were lower than those before treatment (P<0.01), which decreased in the sequence of the 30 min group, the 90 min group, and the 60 min group (P<0.05). Within one year after treatment, the attack times of exopathogenic diseases in the three groups was lower than that within one year before treatment (P<0.01), which decreased in the sequence of the 30 min group, the 90 min group, and the 60 min group (P<0.05).
Conclusion: The optimal moxibustion time of long snake moxibustion on the recurrent exopathogenic diseases of patients with yang-deficiency constitution is 60 min.
目的：探讨不同灸时长蛇灸干预阳虚质反复外感病的时效关系, 为长蛇灸防治阳虚质反复外感病灸时的选择提供科学依据。方法：将符合纳入标准的阳虚质反复外感病患者90例, 随机分为30 min组、60 min组和90 min组, 每组各30例。均每周于大椎穴至腰俞穴施行长蛇灸1次, 施灸时长分别为30 min、60 min和90 min, 每周1次, 共治疗12周。分别观察3组患者治疗前、治疗后、治疗后6个月阳虚质量表评分和疲劳严重程度量表(FSS)评分, 统计治疗前1年内及治疗后1年内外感病发病次数。结果：治疗后及治疗后6个月3组患者阳虚质量表评分、FSS评分均较治疗前降低(P<0.01)；且治疗后及治疗后6个月, 30 min组、90 min组、60 min组阳虚质量表评分、FSS评分均依次降低(P<0.05)。治疗后1年内3组患者外感病发病次数均较治疗前1年内降低(P<0.01)；治疗后1年内, 30 min组、90 min组、60 min组外感病发病次数依次降低(P<0.05)。结论：长蛇灸对阳虚质反复外感病最佳疗效的施灸时间为60 min。.
