Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: This study aimed to provide a basis for applying Korean medical treatment for childhood anorexia in clinical practice by examining Korean medical etiology, pattern differentiation, and treatment, and focusing on research articles on Chinese medicine.
Methods: Articles on Chinese medicine related to childhood anorexia published before November 4, 2021, in the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), were analyzed. The etiology, pattern differentiation, and Chinese medical treatment were summarized.
Results: Of a total of 73 studies, 13 were randomized controlled trials (RCT), 32 were case studies, and 28 were review papers. The most common Chinese medical etiology of childhood anorexia was emotional instability, and the western medical etiology was problems with diet and lifestyle. The most frequently reported pattern differentiations were spleen-stomach-qi deficiency (Þ¡êÖѨúÈ), stomach-yin deficiency (êÖëäÜôðë), and spleen failing in transportation syndrome (Þ¡ã÷Ëíê¡). The most frequent prescriptions were modified Yangwijeungaektang (?êÖñòäû÷·Ê¥Êõ), Samryongbakchulsan (߸?ÛÜ?ߤʥ?), and Ekongsan (ì¶ÍíߤʥÊõ). As frequntly used tuina acupoints, Naepalgwae (?ø¢ÎÏ), Joksamli (ðëß²×ì), and Bigyeong (Þ¡Ìè) were mentioned.
Conclusions: This study analyzed the etiology, pattern differentiation, and Korean medical treatment of anorexia in children. Based on this study, standardization and well-designed clinical studies on Korean medical treatments for childhood anorexia can be expected in the future.
