| To analyze the effects of warm acupuncture and moxibustion combined with Shouhui Tongbian Capsules on clinical symptoms and gastrointestinal hormones in patients with diabetic gastroparesis.Methods:Eighty patients with diabetic gastroparesis admitted to the Deyu Medical Maanshan General Hospital from January 2018 to January 2020 were enrolled.The patients in the control group(n=40) received conventional western medicine treatment,and those in the observation group(n=40) received warm acupuncture and moxibustion combined with Shouhui Tongbian Capsules.The clinical symptom improvement,gastrointestinal hormone level,gastric emptying rate,gastric motility,and clinical efficacy of the patients were retrospectively analyzed.Results:After treatment,the scores of abdominal distention,nausea and vomiting,loss of appetite,acid regurgitation,belching,and stool symptoms in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).Gastrin(GAS),motilin(MOT),the proportion of slowed gastric motility,and preprandial gastric impedance amplitude in the observation group were lower than those in the control group,while somatostatin(SS),4 h gastric emptying rate,the proportion of normal gastric motility,and postprandial gastric impedance amplitude were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The total effective rate of the observation group was 92.50%,higher than 72.50% in the control group(P<0.05).There were no significant differences in epigastric pain score and the proportion of abnormal gastric motility between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion:Warm acupuncture and moxibustion combined with Shouhui Tongbian Capsules can significantly improve the clinical symptoms and gastrointestinal hormone levels of patients with diabetic gastroparesis,effectively improve the gastric emptying rate,and restore gastric motility,with definite clinical efficacy,which is worthy of clinical promotion. |
