Abstract:
This study was aimed to observe the clinical effect of acupuncture together with warm acupuncture on fe-male type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients of dual deficiency of yin and yang syndrome. A total of 92 female T2DM patients of dual deficiency of yin and yang syndrome were divided into two groups, which were priority of yin deficiency in the type of dual deficiency of yin and yang (group 1) and priority of yang deficiency in the type of dual deficiency of yin and yang (group 2). There were 46 cases in each group. The treatment of acupuncture together with warm acupuncture was given for three month. The observation was made on the fasting plasma glucose (FPG), fasting leptin (FLP), fasting insulin (FINS), insulin sensitivity index (ISI), insulin resistance index (Homa-IR), insulin secre-tion index (Homa-β), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high den-sity lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), body mass, body mass index (BMI) and body fat percentage (F%) before and af-ter treatment. The results showed that the total effective rate of group 1 was 69.57%, while the total effective rate of group 2 was 84.78%. There was no significant statistical difference between two groups. Compared with pretreatment, there were significant decrease on FLP, FPG, FINS, Homa-IR, TC, TG, LDL-C, body mass, BMI, and F% of both groups after treatment (P < 0.01). There was obvious increase on ISI, Homa-β, and HDL-C (P < 0.01). After treat-ment, the FPG, Homa-β and BMI of group 2 were better than group 1 (P< 0.05). After treatment, the level of LDC-C and HDC-L of both groups reached normal level. And the FPG of group 2 also reached normal level. It was con-cluded that acupuncture together with warm acupuncture can significantly adjust the level of fat-pancreatic islet shaft of T2DM patients of dual deficiency of yin and yang syndrome, reduce the leptin resistance and insulin resistance, enhance the sensibility of insulin and the function of pancreatic β cell, and correct the endocrine disorder, gly-cometabolism disorder and lipometabolism disorder. Acupuncture together with warm acupuncture did much better in lowering blood sugar and improving the function of pancreatic β cells of T2DM patients whose priority of yang defi-ciency in the type of dual deficiency of yin and yang than those whose priority of yin deficiency in the type of dual deficiency of yin and yang.
