Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the therapeutic effect of thunder-fire moxibustion plus Shenghua Decoction on uterine involution after cesarean section and its influence on lactation. One hundred and twenty parturients with post-cesarean section uterine involution were recruited from our hospital between October 2021 to July 2022. Participants were grouped into A, B, C, and D groups and treated with conventional therapy, Shenghua Decoction, thunder-fire moxibustion, and Shenghua Decoction+thunder-fire moxibustion, respectively. Groups B, C and D, especially group D, had shorter duration of lochia and faster descending speed of uterine fundus height than group A. All the four groups showed decreased uterine cavity volume after treatment, with the lowest volume found in group D. In terms of clinical efficacy, group D also had better treatment outcomes than the other three groups. Furthermore, the breast fullness degree and lactation yield scores were higher in group D than other groups, whilst the four groups were not statistically different in the incidence of adverse reactions. Shorter length of maternal hospital stays, and uterus recovery time were found in group D. In summary, thunder-fire moxibustion plus Shenghua Decoction should be treatment of choice for post-cesarean section uterine involution that can promote maternal breast milk secretion.

雷火灸加生花汤对剖宫产术后子宫复旧及产后泌乳的促进作用

本研究旨在分析雷火灸加生花汤治疗剖宫产术后子宫复旧的疗效及对泌乳的影响。本研究于2021年10月至2022年7月在我院招募剖宫产术后子宫复旧的产妇120例。将患者分为A、B、C、D组，分别采用常规疗法、生花汤+雷火灸、生花汤+雷火灸治疗。B、C、D组，尤其是D组恶露持续时间短于a组，子宫底高度下降速度快于a组。四组治疗后子宫腔体积均减小，其中D组体积最小。在临床疗效方面，D组治疗效果也优于其他三组。D组乳房丰满度和泌乳量评分高于其他组，四组不良反应发生率差异无统计学意义。d组产妇住院时间短，子宫恢复时间短。综上所述，雷火灸加生花汤是剖宫产术后子宫复旧的首选治疗方法，可以促进产妇母乳分泌。

期刊介绍： Current Topics in Nutraceutical Research is an international, interdisciplinary broad-based peer reviewed scientific journal for critical evaluation of research on chemistry, biology and therapeutic applications of nutraceuticals and functional foods. The major goal of this journal is to provide peer reviewed unbiased scientific data to the decision makers in the nutraceutical and food industry to help make informed choices about development of new products. To this end, the journal will publish two types of review articles. First, a review of preclinical research data coming largely from animal, cell culture and other experimental models. Such data will provide basis for future product development and/or human research initiatives. Second, a critical evaluation of current human experimental data to help market and deliver the product for medically proven use. This journal will also serve as a forum for nutritionists, internists, neurologists, psychiatrists, and all those interested in preventive medicine. The common denominator of all of the topic to be covered by the journal must include nutraceuticals and/functional food. The following is an example of some specific areas that may be of interest to the journal. i) Role of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and phytonutrients on cardiovascular health, cancer, diabetes, ocular health, mental health, men’s health, women’s health, infant nutrition, ii) Role of herbals on human health, iii) Dietary supplements and sleep, iv) Components of diet that may have beneficial effect on human health, v) regulation of apoptosis and cell viability, vi) Isolation and characterization of bioactive components from functional foods, vii) Nutritional genomics, and viii) Nutritional proteomics.
