Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of acupuncture at Neiyingxiang(EX-HN09)points combined with western medicine in the treatment of allergic rhinitis of deficiency-cold of lung qi type.Methods Sixty patients with deficiency-cold of lung qi type of allergic rhinitis were randomly divided into observation group and control group,with 30 patients in each group.The control group was treated with Desloratadine Tablets combined with Mometasone Furoate Aqueous Nasal Spray,and the observation group was treated with acupuncture at Neiyingxiang points combined with the self-made rhinitis recipe on the basis of the control group,and the clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated after 14 days.The changes of nasal symptom scores,Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)and rhinoconjunctivitis quality of life scores of the patients of the two groups were observed before and after the treatment.After 14 days of treatment,the clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated.The changes in nasal symptom scores,as well as VAS and rhinoconjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire(RQLQ)scores were observed before and after treatment.The changes in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)sydnrome scores and serum immunoglobulin E(IgE)were compared before and after treatment in the two groups,and the safety of the two groups was evaluated.Results(1)The total effective rate of the observation group was 93.33%(28/30),and the control group was 73.33%(22/30).The efficacy of the observation group was superior to that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).(2)After treatment,the symptoms of nasal congestion,sneezing,runny nose and nasal itching were significantly improved in the two groups(P<0.01),and the observation group was significantly superior to the control group in improving nasal symptoms,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).(3)After treatment,the VAS scores of patients in the two groups were significantly improved(P<0.01),and the observation group was superior to the control group in improving VAS scores,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).(4)After treatment,the PQLQ scores of patients in the two groups improved significantly(P<0.01),and the observation group was significantly superior to the control group in improving the PQLQ scores,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).(5)After treatment,the TCM syndrome scores of the patients in the two groups were significantly improved(P<0.01),and the observation group was significantly superior to the control group in improving TCM syndrome scores,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).(6)After treatment,the serum IgE levels of patients in the two groups were significantly improved(P<0.01),and the observation group was significantly superior to the control group in improving serum IgE levels(P<0.05),with a statistically significant difference.(7)There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the observation group and the control group(P>0.05).Conclusion Acupuncture at Neiyingxiang points plus self-made rhinitis recipe combined with western medicine in the treatment of deficiency-cold of lung qi type of allergic rhinitis can significantly improve the clinical symptoms of the patients,thus improving the quality of life of the patients,and the therapeutic efficacy is remarkable.
