To study the curative effects of traditional Chinese medicine hot compress from acupoint in the treatment of children with asthma in remission stage.Methods:From February 2013 to August 2014 in our hospital,86 cases of children with asthma in remission stage were randomly divided into experimental group and control group.The control group received conventional western medicine treatment,and the experimental group was treated with traditional Chinese medicine hot compress acupuncture treatment.The efficacy,the improvement of clinical symptoms,the immune function indexes of serum interleukin-13 (IL-13),macrophage inflammatory protein1α (MIP-1α) and serum amyloid A protein (SAA) level of two groups before and after treatment were compared.Results:The total effective rate of treatment group was 95.35% (41/43),which was higher than the control group 69.77% (30/43) (P<0.05).After the treatment,degree of asthma group,the frequency of asthma attacks,repeated colds and sweating score was (1.08±0.51),(1.09±0.42).(1.08±0.71),(0.94±0.61),which were significantly lower than the control group (1.78±0.74),(1.83±0.55),(1.53±0.74),(1.44±0.70) (P<0.05).The experimental group of IgM,IgG,IgA after treatment were (1.94±0.72) mg/mL,(16.12±0.74) mg/mL,(2.32±0.47) mg/mL,which were significantly higher than those in control group (1.62±0.57) mg/mL,(13.49±0.68) mg/mL,(1.77±0.36) mg/mL (P<0.05).The serum IL-13,MIP-1α and SAA levels of the experimental group and the control group were significantly lower than before treatment,while the experimental group was significantly lower than the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion:The traditional Chinese medicine hot compress acupoint in the treatment of children with asthma in remission stage showed clinical curative effect,which is beneficial to improve the clinical symptoms,improve immune function,and effectively improve the level of serum IL-13,MIP-1αand SAA. |
