"The conventional group were only treated withconventional Westem medicine, while the combined group were treated with traditional Chinese medicineacupoint cryotherapy on the basis of the control group. After treatment , the patients were followed up for 9months to compare the changes in Fractional exhaled nitric oxide ( FeNO ) levels, asthma control test( AC'T') scores , as well as the pulmonary function recovery and occurrence of adverse events between thetwo groups. Results After treatment , the FeNO levels in the combined group were lower than those in the conventional group after 1 , 2, and 3 months of treatment, the ACT seores were higher than those of theconventional group, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). By the end of follow-up, theforced expiratory volume in one seeond ( FEV1 ), forced vital capacity ( FVC), and maximum ventilationvolume per minute ( MVV) of the combined group were higher than those of the conventional group, andthe incidence of adverse events was lower than that of the conventional group ( P<0.05 ).
