Abstract:
Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of Jiaji point needling for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GRD) with liver-stomach stagnated heat type. Methods Sixty GRD patients were randomly divided into Jiaji point group and conventional point group, 30 cases in each group. Jiaji point group was given needling on bilateral T5 to T10 Jiaji points, and conventional point group was given acupuncture mainly on Zusanli, Zhongwan and Neiguan points, once a day for 10 continuous days. Before and after treatment, the scores of clinical symptoms and gastroscopy results were observed, and then the therapeutic effect and recurrence rate of GRD were evaluated. Results (1) The total effective rate of Jiaji point group was 86.7％, and that of the conventional point group was 83.3％, the difference being insignificant (P > 0.05). (2) After treatment, the scores of clinical symptoms of the two groups were decreased (P < 0.01 compared with those before treatment), and the decrease in Jiaji point group was superior to that in the conventional point group (P < 0.05). (3) After treatment, the mean R value of gastroscopy results in the two groups was lower than that before treatment (P <0.01) , but the difference of the mean R value of gastroscopy results in the two groups was insignificant (P >0.05). (4) After treatment for 2 months, the recurrence rate of Jiaji point group was 23.5％ and that of the conventional point group was 42.9％, the difference being insignificant between the two groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion The short-term effect of Jiaji point needling for the treatment of GRD with liver-stomach stagnated heat type is superior to that of conventional point needling.
