Abstract
XU and colleagues, Visceral Manifestation Laboratory, Huashan Hospital, Shanghai Medical University China studied the effect of strengthening body resistance Chinese method upon asthmatic attacks.
Background
Methodology
Asthma patients of Cold and Heat types were divided into control and treatment groups. Control group patients were symptomatically treated, whereas the test group were treated both on the principal and secondary aspects.
Results
Test results in the treatment group were markedly higher than in the control group. The 1 second forced expiratory volume (FEV1) and maximal expiratory flow increased markedly, the human leukocyte antigen carrying (HLA-DR+) T cell ratio, basophilic cell releasing capacity (HBR) and T cell hyperplasia response to specific allergen were reduced . These criteria were not significantly changed in the control group.
Conclusion
: These results suggest that the strengthening body resistance method displayed a prominent regulating action in relieving asthma attacks.
