摘　　要：Objective： To observe the effect of mild-warm moxa stick moxibustion on fatigue, immune state and quality of life （QOL） in sub-health population. Methods： A total of 120 cases were randomly allocated into a moxibustion group （n=60） and a Chinese patent medicine （CPM） group （n=60）. People in the moxibustion group were intervened with mild-warm moxa stick moxibustion, once a day; while people in the control group took oral Bu Zhong Yi Qi Won （Spleen/stomach-supplementing and Qi-boosting Pill）, 3 doses a day. Two months made up a course of treatment. The fatigue, immune state and QOL were then observed after one treatment course, followed by a 12-month follow-up. Results： A total of 215 cases completed the clinical trial. After intervention, the fatigue scores, immune parameters and QOL scores were significantly increased in both groups, showing statistical significances （P〈0.05）. There were between-group significant differences in fatigue score, levels of immunoglobulin M （IgM） and IgG, natural killer （NK） cell activity and QOL score （P〈O.05）. After the 22-month follow-up, there were still significant between-group differences in fatigue score, physical health, psychological, social relationships and overall perception of QOL and overall perception of health （P〈0.05）. Conclusion： Mild-warm moxibustion can markedly improve the fatigue, immune state and QOL in sub-health population.目的:探讨艾条温和灸对疲劳性亚健康人群疲劳、免疫状态及生存质量的影响。方法:将120例患者按照就诊顺序随机分为艾灸组和中药组,每组60例。艾灸组采用艾条温和灸干预,1次/d,中药组给予补中益气丸口服,3次/d,连续治疗2个月为1个疗程。两组均在治疗1疗程后观察患者疲劳、免疫状态及生存质量,并随访12个月。结果:共115例患者完成了临床试验,两组患者治疗后疲劳评分、免疫学指标及生存质量评分与治疗前比较均显著改善,差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。艾灸组患者治疗后疲劳评分,免疫球蛋白M(immunoglobulin M,Ig M)、Ig G含量及自然杀伤(natural killer,NK)细胞活性,生存质量评分与中药组差异比均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。12个月随访结束时艾灸组患者疲劳评分及生理、心理、社会关系、生存质量主观感觉、健康状况主观感觉评分与中药组均有统计学差异(P<0.05)。结论:温和灸可明显改善疲劳性亚健康人群的疲劳症状、免疫状态与生活质量。
