School of Basic Medicine, Baicheng Medical College, Baicheng, China.
This study provides an in-depth perspective of moxibustion as a treatment option for urinary incontinence (UI), focusing on its clinical efficacy, underlying mechanisms, and potential integration into standard care practices. Moxibustion, rooted in traditional Chinese medicine, involves the targeted application of heat from burning moxa at specific acupoints. Analyzing data from randomized controlled trials and retrospective studies, the study suggests that moxibustion effectively reduces UI symptoms and improves quality of life with minimal adverse effects.

Methods: A total of 98 patients with PHN of stagnation and blood stasis on chest and waist were randomized into an observation group (49 cases, 1 case was eliminated, 1 case dropped out) and a control group (49 cases, 1 case dropped out). In the observation group, treatment of pricking-cupping combined with auricular thumbtack needle was delivered, pricking and cupping were applied at Jiaji points (EX-B 2) at the related spinal segments corresponding to the pain sites and regional points, once every other day, auricular thumbtack needle was applied at Xin (CO), Shenmen (TF), Neifenmi (CO), Pizhixia (AT), etc.

Objectives: To observe the efficacy and safety of ginger-partitioned moxibustion combined with ringheaded thumb-tack needle stimulation in the prevention and treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) in patients with malignant tumors.
Methods: Patients with malignant tumors and suffering from chemotherapy were randomly divided into control group (35 cases, 4 cases dropped off) and observation group (35 cases, 2 cases dropped off). The patients of the control group were treated by orally taking ondansetron hydrochloride tablets 8 mg/time, 3 times a day for 3 d, and those of the observation group treated by ginger-partitioned moxibustion combined with ringheaded thumb-tack needle stimulation of Zusanli(ST36), Neiguan(PC6), Tianshu(ST25), Zhongwan(CV12) and Guanyuan(CV4) once a day for a total of 3 d, based on the treatment of the control group.
