Sponsor's own description

Objective To examine the therapeutic effect and safety of non-invasive auricular acupoint stimulation application on patients with slow transmission constipation. Methods In a randomized clinical trial, 60 patients diagnosed with slow transit constipation (STC), ranging in age from 40 to 75 years, were allocated into two distinct cohorts: a study group and a control group. The study group, comprising 30 individuals, received a combination therapy of non-invasive auricular acupoint stimulation and prucapride, while the control group, also consisting of 30 patients, was administered prucapride as a monotherapy. To assess the efficacy of the interventions, various parameters were monitored, including serum levels of Neuropeptide Y (NPY), nitric oxide (NO), fecal water content, and gastrointestinal (GI) transit. The comparative therapeutic outcomes were determined by calculating symptom scores.
