Clinical Efficacy and Safety of Acupuncture Combined with Exercise Training in Patients with Simple Obesity
Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of acupuncture combined with exercise training for patients with simple obesity.Methods:A total of 72 patients with simple obesity admitted to Sanming Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine from January 2022 to April 2023 were randomly divided into control group(n=36)and study group(n=36).The control group was given exercise training,and the study group was given acupuncture combined with exercise training.The effective rate,body shape index,serum adipokine index and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results:The total effective rate of the study group was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,BMI,WHR,FAT,ADP and Ins levels in both groups were lower than before treatment,and the study group was lower than the control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(P>0.05),and the incidence of adverse reactions was lower.Conclusion:Acupuncture combined with exercise training can improve body shape index and reduce serum adipokine level in patients with simple obesity,and it is safe and worthy of clinical application and promotion.
