Objective:To observe the curative effect of modified Banxia Houpu Decoction combined with acupuncture in the treatment of gastrointestinal dysfunction.Methods:Eighty cases were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group,40 cases in each group.Both groups were treated with acupuncture and the observation group were treated with modified Banxia Houpu Decoction in addition.Results:The total effective rate of the observation group was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the levels of MTL,SS and GAS in the two groups decreased,and those in the observation group were lower than the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the levels of TNF-α,CRP and IL-6 in the two groups decreased,and those in the observation group were 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).After one year of follow-up,the recurrence rate of the observation group was lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Banxia Houpu Decoction combined with acupuncture has a good effect on gastrointestinal dysfunction and could reduce the long-term recurrence rate.
