ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To observe the efficacy of acupoint catgut embedding therapy combined medication on chronic urticaria induced by Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Ninety-two cases were randomly divided into 3 groups, named a medication group (group A, 31 cases), an acupoint catgut embedding group (group B, 30 cases) and a medication combined acupoint catgut embedding group (group C, 31 cases). In group A, the medication was administered orally for antihistamine and anti-HP infection. In group B, catgut embedding was applied on Quchi (LI 11), Xuehai (SP 10), Zusanli (ST 36), etc. In group C, acupoint catgut embedding therapy was applied in combination with medication (medication as group A, acupoint catgut embedding as group B). After 3-month treatment, the efficacy, recurrence rate and HP negative rate were compared among 3 groups.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Separately, the effective rates of group A, B, C were 61.3% (19/31), 53.3% (16/30) and 90.3% (28/31); the recurrence rates were 27.3% (3/11), 33.3% (3/9) and 5.9% (1/17); and HP negative rates were 31.3% (10/31), 26.7% (9/30) and 77.4% (24/31). The clinical efficacy and HP negative rate in group C were superior to those in group A and B (P < 0.01, P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Acupoint catgut embedding therapy combined medication is significant in efficacy and low in recurrence rate in treatment of chronic urticaria caused by HP infection.</p>
