艾灸联合弥可保治疗糖尿病周围神经病变40例

目的评价艾灸联合弥可保治疗糖尿病周围神经病变的疗效。方法对糖尿病周围神经病变患者80例按1∶1比例等分为联合组和对照组,两组基于等同的基础治疗之上,联合组用艾灸联合弥可保治疗,对照组单纯用弥可保治疗,疗程3个月,比较治疗前后的神经传导速度变化和症状改善情况。结果联合组和对照组神经传导速度均改善,以联合组改善更明显;联合组和对照组显效、有效、无效分别是52.5%、32.5%、15.0%和35.0%、27.5%、37.5%,组间差异有统计学意义(P<0.01或P<0.05)。结论建立于基础治疗之上的艾灸联合弥可保治疗糖尿病周围神经病变优于单纯弥可保治疗。

Treatment of 40 Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy Patients with Moxibustion plus Mecobalamin

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of moxibustion plus Mecobalamin in treating diabetic peripheral neuropathy.Methods Eighty patients exactly diagnosed as having diabetic peripheral neuropathy were allocated at a ratio of one to one to combination and control groups.On the basis of the same basic treatment,the combination group was treated with moxibustion plus Mecobalamin and the control group,with simple Mecobalamin.Treatment lasted 3 months.Nerve conduction velocity and symptom severity were compared between pretreatment and posttreatment.Results Nerve conduction velocity improved in both combination and control groups and more obviously in the combination group.The marked efficacy rate,efficacy rate and inefficacy rate were 52.5%,(32.5%) and 15.0%,respectively,in the combination group and 35.0%,27.5% and 37.5%,respectively,in the control group.There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups(P<0.01 or P<0.05).Conclusion Based on a basic treatment,moxibustion plus Mecobalamin is superior to simple Mecobalamin in treating diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
