Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of acupoint massage on blood glucose in type 2 diabetic patients. Methods A total of 67 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus patients, using the random number table method were divided into experimental group of 34 cases and 33 cases in the control group by random number table method. The experimental group was given five groups of acupoint massage and "five carriages" management to diabetes patients (control diet, exercise, blood sugar and lipid lowering drugs, diabetes knowledge propaganda and education, blood glucose monitoring). The control group was administered only the "five carriages" of diabetes. The two groups were observed for 2 months, and were compared the changes of biochemical indexes of glucose metabolism. Results After 2 months, the experimental group's fasting plasma glucose (FBG), 2 hours postprandial blood glucose (2 hBG), and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) decreased from the original (10.12±4.15) mmol/L, (15.32±5.65) mmol/L, and (9.36 ± 2.78)% to (6.04 ± 1.75) mmol/L, (8.42 ± 3.01) mmol/L, (6.35 ± 0.78) % , respectively, there were statistically significant differences within the group (t=5.28, 6.28, 6.08 respectively, all P<0.01). After 2 months, the FBG, 2 hBG, and HbA1c in the control group decreased from (11.23±6.02) mmol/L, (16.31± 6.23) mmol/L, and (9.67 ± 2.59) % to (7.12 ± 1.21) mmol/L, (9.58 ± 2.68) mmol/L, and (7.47 ± 1.96) % , respectively, and the differences within the group were statistically significant (t = 3.90, 5.79, and 3.95, respectively, all P<0.01). After 2 months, there was a significant difference between the FBG, 2 hBG, and HbA1c groups in the experimental group and the control group (t=2.96, 1.69, 3.09, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the FBG and 2 hBG groups after 1 week of intervention in the experimental group (P>0.05). Conclusions To acupoint massage with basic intervention for type 2 diabetes patients can effectively consolidate the hypoglycemic effect, which is worthy of clinical reference and promotion.
