俞募配穴治疗子宫内膜异位症的对照研究

目的:比较俞募配穴针刺法与常规针刺法、西药治疗子宫内膜异位症(EM)的临床疗效。方法:将90例患者随机分为俞募针刺组(30例),穴取肝俞、脾俞、肾俞、期门、章门、京门;常规针刺组(30例),穴取合谷、中极、关元、三阴交;西药对照组(30例),口服达那唑。观察3组患者临床症状、体征、肿瘤标志物血清CA125值的变化以及不良反应。结果:3组总疗效相似,但俞募针刺组在痛经、月经不调、腰骶痛、肛门坠胀等症状的改善方面显著优于其他两组(P<0·01),且俞募针刺组治疗后血清CA125值较治疗前显著降低(P<0·01)。结论:俞募配穴针刺法治疗EM临床疗效显著,其不良反应明显低于西药对照组。

Controlled study on Shu-Mu point combination for treatment of endometriosis

Objective To compare therapeutic effects of Shu-Mu point combination, routine needling method and western medicine treatment on endometriosis (EM). Methods Ninety cases were randomly divided into a Shu-Mu point combination group (n=30) treated with acupuncture at Ganshu (BL 18), Pishu (BL 20), Shenshu (BL 23), Qimen (LR 14), Zhangmen (LR 13), Jingmen (GB 25); a routine needling group (n=30) treated with acupuncture at Hegu (LI 4), Zhongji (CV 3), Guanyuan (CV 4), Sanyinjiao (SP 6) and a western medicine group treated with oral administration of Danazol. Clinical symptoms and signs, tumor marker serum CA_ 125 values and adverse effects in the three groups were investigated before and after treatment. Results The total effective rate was similar in the three groups. The Shu-Mu point combination group was superior to other two groups in improvement of dysmenorrhea, irregular menstuation, lumbago and sacrodynia, anus engorge, etc. (P<0.01). After treatment, serum CA_ 125 in the Shu-Mu point combination group significantly decreased (P<0.01). Conclusion Shu-Mu point combination needling method has an obvious therapeutic effect on endometriosis, with lower adverse effect than that of the western medicine group.
