摘要

To explore the effect of Soothing Gan (肝) and invigorating Pi (脾) (SGIP) acupuncture treatment on the clinical symptoms and quality of life (QOL) in patients with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D). With a single-blinded randomized control study adopted

63 patients who met the inclusion criteria were assigned by a random number table to two groups

31 in the treatment group and 32 in the drug control group. The treatment group received SGIP acupuncture therapy; while the control group was treated orally with pinaverium bromide. The treatment duration of both groups was 28 days. The clinical efficacy was evaluated and compared by scoring patient’s symptom and QOL. A significant difference was found by variance analysis in efficacies between the two groups (P<0.01)

shown as the quicker initiation of effect (P<0.05) and the more evident clinical improvement in symptoms along the increase in treatment duration

as well as the more significant elevation of QOL in the acupuncture treatment group (P<0.01). SGIP displayed its superiority especially in improving dysphoria

conflict behavior

dietary restrictions

and social responses. SGIP acupuncture treatment could effectively alleviate the degree and frequency of symptoms’ attack in IBS-D patients

such as abdominal pain

diarrhea

abdominal distension

etc.

markedly relieve the tenesmic sensation

with the efficacy better than that of pinaverium bromide

showing a preponderance in improving patient’s QOL.
