Therapeutic effects of sequential therapy of acupoint application of traditional Chinese medicine and catgut implan-tation at acupoint on patients with type 2diabetes mellitus and obesity
Objective:To observe the therapeutic effects of sequential therapy of acupoint application of traditional Chinese medicine acupoint and catgut implantation at acupoint on patients with type 2diabetes mellitus(T2DM)and obesity.Methods:A total of 102obese patients with T2DM admitted to the hospital from May 2020to May 2023were selected and randomly divided into control group and observation group,with 51cases in each group.The control group was given conventional treatment,while the observation group was given sequential therapy on the basis of the treatment of control group.The clinical efficacy,traditional Chi-nese medicine syndrome scores,blood glucose[fasting blood glucose(FBG),2-hour postprandial plasma glucose(2hPG)and glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c)],insulin resistance indices[insulin resistance index(HOAM-IR)and insulin secretion in-dex(HOAM-β)],obesity indices[body weight,body mass index(BMI)and body fat rate],inflammatory factors[C-reac-tive protein(CRP),interleukin-6(IL-6)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)]and the incidences of adverse reactions were compared between groups.Results:The total clinical effective rate in the observation group was higher than that in the con-trol group(P＜0.05).After 3months of treatment,traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores,FBG,2hPG,HbA1c,HOAM-IR,body weight,BMI,body fat rate,the levels of CRP,IL-6and TNF-α in both groups were reduced,and HOAM-β was in-creased(P＜0.05).Meanwhile,traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores,FBG,2hPG,HbA1c,HOAM-IR,body weight,BMI,body fat rate,the levels of CRP,IL-6and TNF-α in the observation group are lower,and HOAM-β was higher as com-pared with the control group(P＜0.05).The incidences of adverse reactions in the two groups were close(P＞0.05).Conclusion:The sequential therapy of acupoint application of traditional Chinese medicine acupoint and catgut implantation at acupoint is sig-nificantly effective for patients with T2DM and obesity.It can effectively control blood glucose level and body mass,improve pan-creas islet function and inflammatory state,with high safety.
