Objective: To study the clinical efficacy of Gegen Qinlian Tang for rectoclysis combined with massage manipulation on gastrin

motilin and somatostatin of children with damp-heat syndrome diarrhea. Method: A total of 100 cases of children with diarrhea treated in our hospital from August 2013 to October 2016 were selected and divided into two groups according to the random number table

with 50 cases in clinical group and 50 in control group. In addition to the routine western treatment

the control group was also given massage manipulation

while the clinical group was additionally given Gegen Qinlian Tang for rectoclysis. Then

treatment effect

fever

diarrhea

abdominal pain disappeared time

correct dehydration and resumption of feeding time

traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome score

and values of gastrin (GAS)

motilin (MOT) and somatostatin (SS) were compared after treatment for 3 days. Result: The total effective rate of the clinical group was 94.00%

which was higher than 82.00% in control group

with significant differences (P<0.05). Fever

diarrhea

abdominal pain disappeared time

correct dehydration and resumption of feeding time in clinical group were obviously shorter than those in control group (P<0.05). Compared with before treatment

TCM syndrome score of two groups was significantly improved after treatment

with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). Compared with control group

TCM syndrome score of the clinical group was lower

with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). Compared with before treatment

GAS and MOT of two groups decreased

while SS increased after treatment (P<0.05). Compared with control group

the levels of GAS and MOT in clinical group were lower

while SS was higher after treatment (P<0.05). Conclusion: Gegen Qinlian Tang for rectoclysis combined with massage manipulation can significantly alleviate the symptoms of damp-heat syndrome diarrhea in children

shorten the treatment time

and improve gastrointestinal function by effectively coordinating the balance of gastrointestinal hormones.
