Application value of cupping combined with auricular acupoint pressing with beans in patients with hypertension due to phlegm-damp syndrome
Objective To explore the effect of cupping combined with auricular acupoint pressing with beans on patients with hypertension due to phlegm-damp syndrome.Methods A prospective study was conducted on 86 patients with hypertension due to phlegm-damp syndrome at Zhongshan Hospital Xiamen University from January 2021 to June 2022.They were allocated to an observation group(43 cases)and a control group(43 cases)using the simple randomization method.Both groups were treated with cupping on the basis of routine treatment and nursing,and the observation group was additionally treated with auricular acupoint pressing with beans.The intervention lasted for 1 month.The changes in morning blood pressure,blood pressure circadian rhythm,blood lipid levels,and traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores before and after intervention were compared between the two groups,and the clinical effect of the two groups was evaluated.Results After 1 month of intervention,the morning systolic blood pressure(SBP)and diastolic blood pressure(DBP),total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)levels,as well as the traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores of both groups decreased compared with those before intervention(all P<0.05).The SBP circadian rhythm,DBP circadian rhythm,and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)level of both groups increased compared with those before intervention(all P<0.05).The above indicators and scores of the observation group were better than those of the control group(all P<0.05).After 1 month of intervention,the total clinical effective rate of the observation group was 90.70%,which was higher than 74.42%of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion On the basis of routine treatment and nursing,cupping combined with auricular acupoint pressing with beans can effectively improve the blood pressure and circadian rhythm,regulate the blood lipid levels,reduce the traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores,and achieve a more ideal treatment effect in patients with hypertension due to phlegm-damp syndrome.
