ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effect of exsanguination at jing points and auricular tips on antipyretic effect and inflammation factors level in patients with fever caused by coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19).Methods A retrospective study was conducted.A total of 521 febrile patients with COVID-19 admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine from January 1 to 10,2023 were selected as the study subjects.The patients were divided into the control group(treated with conventional treatment)and the experimental group(treated with exsanguination of jing points and auricular tips based on the control group)according to whether they received traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)exsanguination treatment.The body temperature before treatment and 30 minutes and 4 hours,24 hours after treatment,the immediate(within 30 minutes)antipyrexia efficiency,the time of body temperature returning to normal,and the levels of inflammatory factors before treatment and 48 hours after treatment were collected,and the differences between the two groups were compared.According to the standard of fever relief≥1℃within 4 hours,the differences of the average onset time of fever and the rate of fever relief at 2.5,3 and 4 hours after treatment were compared between the two groups.Kaplan-Meier curve was drawn to analyze the change of 4-hour antipyrexia rate in the two groups before and after matching.Results A total of 169 cases in the experimental group and 352 cases in the control group were finally included.Because this study was retrospective,there were significant differences in the course of disease and underlying diseases(chronic bronchitis,diabetes,renal insufficiency,hepatobiliary diseases)between the two groups at baseline(all P<0.05).In order to reduce the differences,the above 4 factors were included in the predictor variables,and a 1∶1 propensity matching was performed to match 166 pairs of case samples,which were comparable.The result showed body temperature of the two groups gradually decreased with the extension of time,and the body temperature of the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group at each time point(℃30 minutes was 38.32±0.22 vs.38.43±0.24,4 hours was 37.67±0.32 vs.38.13±0.51,24 hours was 37.03±0.38 vs.37.14±0.51,all P<0.05),the immediate antipyrexia efficiency was significantly higher than that of the control time group[63.86%(106/166)vs.44.58%(74/166),P<0.05],and the time of body temperature recovery to normal was significantly shorter than that of the control group(hours19.25±7.79 vs.38.90±17.17,P<0.05).In terms of the 4 hours antipyretic onset dynamic time,the average antipyretic onset time of the experimental group was significantly shorter than that of the control group[hours4.39(4.11,4.68)vs.7.16(6.71,7.61),P<0.05],the fever relief rates at 2.5,3 and 4 hours were significantly higher than those in the control group[6.63%(11/166)vs.0.60%(1/166),24.10%(40/166)vs.4.82%(8/166),74.10%(123/166)vs.38.55%(64/166),respectively,all P<0.05].Kaplan-Meier curve analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in 4 hours fever reduction rates between the two groups before and after matching(all P<0.05).In terms of inflammatory factors,high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and interleukin-6(IL-6)in the two groups after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment[hs-CRP(mg/L)control group was 32.03±15.38 vs.79.78±13.34,experimental group was 33.21±16.07 vs.80.03±14.66;TNF-α(μg/L)control group 2.91±0.88 vs.5.09±0.95,experimental group 2.83±0.98 vs.5.10±0.87;IL-6(ng/L)control group was 96.30±48.12 vs.206.48±56.70,experimental group was 94.01±45.13 vs.202.38±55.38,all P<0.05],but there was no significant difference in the levels of the above indicators between the two groups after treatment.Conclusion Exsanguination at the jing points and auricular tips has a good antipyretic effect in the treatment of fever caused by COVID-19,which can accelerate the antipyretic time,improve the antipyretic efficiency,and reduce the level of inflammatory factors.
