Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Kuijiening Paste acupoint application on ulcerative colitis (UC) patients of spleen-kidney Yang deficiency type, and its effect on serum levels of IFN-γand IL-4. Methods Sixty UC patients were divided into treatment group, control group and combined treatment group, 20 cases in each group, and were given Kuijiening Paste acupoint application plus placebo, oral sulfasalazine plus comfort paste and Kuijiening Paste acupoint application plus sulfasalazine respectively for 60 days. The clinical efficacy, mucosal lesions efficacy, mucosal pathology efficacy, changes of serum IFN-γand IL-4 were observed after treatment. Results There was no significant difference in clinical efficacy, mucosal lesions efficacy and mucosal pathology efficacy among the three groups (P>0.05). After treatment, IFN-γlevels of the three groups significantly reduced, and IL-4 levels significantly increased (P<0.01). The difference between the treatment group and the control group was significant (P<0.05). The difference between the combined treatment group and the control group was significant (P<0.01). Conclusion Kuijiening Paste acupoint application combined with sulfasalazine can regulate the level of immune cytokine in UC patients of spleen-kidney Yang deficiency type, and receive good clinical efficacy.
