Abstract
ObjectiveTo observe the therapeutic efficacy ofacupoint thread embedding in treating hyperlipidemia, and to explore a treatment method with valid efficacy and few side effects.MethodSixty patients with hyperlipidemia were randomized into a thread embedding group and a medication group, 30 cases ineach group. The thread embedding group was intervened by thread embedding at Zhongwan (CV12), Tianshu (ST25), Fenglong (ST40), and Zusanli (ST36), once a week; the medication group was by taking Xue Zhi Kang capsules, two capsules each time, twice a day. The two groups both received treatment for 8 weeks. The clinical efficacy, total cholesterol (Chol), and triglyceride levels were observed before and after treatment.ResultThe total effective rate was 86.7% in the thread embedding group versus 83.3% in the medication group, and the difference was statistically insignificant (P>0.05). After 4-week treatment, the transaminase level increased in 3.3% of the patients in the medication group, while no one showed an increased transaminase level in the thread embedding group. After 8-week treatment, the observed indexes were increased in the medication group, while those in the thread embedding group were still stable.ConclusionAcupoint thread embedding is effective in treating hyperlipidemia, and the effect is durable with few side effects.关键词
