Observe therapeutic effect of suspended moxibustion on temperature-sensitive acupoints for chronic prostatitis, to explore a new therapy.
Sixty cases were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group (n = 30 in each group). The suspended moxibustion on temperature-sensitive acupoints plus herbalenema were practiced in the observation group. The moxibustion at Guanyuan (CV 4), Zhongji (CV 3), Shenshu (BL 23) combined with herbalenema were practiced in the control group. The score of syndromes, the score of symptom indexes (NIH-CPSI), and WBC in prostatic secretion (EPS-WBC) were used as observation index for chronic prostatitis. The therapeutic effect was compared between the two groups.
The markedly cured rate was 50.0% in the observation group, better than that of 26.7% in the control group (P < 0.05). The score of syndromes, NIH-CPSI and EPS-WBC in the observation group were lower than the control group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01).
The therapeutic effect of suspended moxibustion on temperature-sensitive acupoints plus medication is better than moxibustion plus medication for chronic prostatitis in improvement of symptoms and EPS-WBC.
观察热敏穴位悬灸治疗慢性前列腺炎的疗效，探索一种新的治疗方法。
将60例患者随机分为观察组和对照组（每组各30例）。观察组采用热敏穴位悬灸结合中药灌肠治疗。对照组采用关元（CV4）、中极（CV3）、肾俞（BL23）艾灸结合中药灌肠治疗。采用慢性前列腺炎的证候评分、症状指标评分（NIH-CPSI）以及前列腺液白细胞（EPS-WBC）作为观察指标，比较两组的治疗效果。
观察组的显愈率为50.0%，优于对照组的26.7%（P<0.05）。观察组的证候评分、NIH-CPSI评分及EPS-WBC均低于对照组（P<0.05，P<0.01）。
热敏穴位悬灸联合药物治疗慢性前列腺炎在改善症状及EPS-WBC方面的疗效优于单纯艾灸联合药物治疗。
