摘要

To explore the therapeutical effect of ear-acupoint pressing combined with Ear Apex (HX6

7) bloodletting on haemorheology in chloasma patients with Gan (Liver) depression pattern. A total of 180 chloasma patients were randomly assigned to three groups

60 cases in each. Patients in the earacupuncture (EA) group were treated with ear-acupoint pressing combined with Ear Apex (HX6

7) bloodletting; vitamins C and E were put into practice in the Western medicine (WM) group together with 0.025% tretinoin cream for local external application; patients in the placebo group were treated with urea-cream by external use

while 30 healthy volunteers were in the control group. After a treatment course of 2 months

the changes of haemorheology

injury skin area

colour score and symptom score before and after the treatment were observed. There was no significant difference on whole blood reduced viscosity (high shear

medium shear

and low shear)

erythrocyte aggregation index

hematocrit

plasma viscosity among the four groups (F =2.65

P>0.05). Compared with those before treatment

the whole blood viscosity (high shear) and whole blood reduced viscosity (high shear) after treatment in the EA group

the WM group and the placebo group were with no statistical significance (P>0.05). The injury skin area and colour score after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment in the EA group and the WM group (P<0.05)

while there was no significant difference in placebo group (P>0.05). Clinical symptoms of the EA group were obviously improved after the 2-month treatment

which was significantly different compared with those before treatment (P<0.05)

there was significant difference compared with those of WM group and placebo group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference on haemorheology index between healthy people and chloasma patients without angionosis

cerebrovascular disease

hematopathy

metabolic disease or any other organic disease. Ear-acupoint pressing combined with Ear Apex (HX6

7) bloodletting can effectively improve concurrent symptoms

lighten chloasma and lower chloasma area in patients accompanied by Gan depression.
