Abstract:
In this series, 24 cases of ulcerative colitis and 23 cases of chronic colitis were treated with drug partition -moxibustion with total effective rates of 95. 83% and 95. 55% respectively, markedly excelled that of control group treated with western medicine. Comparison made on the results of the 15 cases of ulcerative colitis before and after treatment showed that drug partition - moxibustion inhibits humoral immunity and strengthens cellular immunity. It is suggested that the mechanism might lie on the adjustment on the abnormal ratio between T - lymphocytes subgroups, hence the self - immune state in the patient can be checked and the mucosal lesion in the intestine corrected.
