Regulation of Mild Moxibustion on Uterine Vascular and Prostaglandin Contents in Primary Dysmenorrhea Rat Model

Table 3

Summary of the effects of moxibustion on the regulation of uterine microvascular in healthy and PD rats.

Intergroup comparison	The thickness of uterus in vitro (mm)	Microvasculature diameter (μm)	PGF2α (U/L)	PGE2 (U/L)
A-B	Thickening trend	Thickening trend	Rising trend	Rising
A-C	Obvious thickening	Obvious thinning	Rising	Rising
C-D	Thinning	Obvious thickening	Downward trend	Downward
A-D	Thickening	Thinning	Rising trend	Rising trend
B-D	Thickening trend	Obvious thinning	Downward trend	Downward trend

A = control group; B = control plus moxibustion group; C = PD model group; D = PD model plus moxibustion group.
