Arms and Interventions

Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
EXPERIMENTAL: Treatment group 1
Based on the infection of Hp or not, patients will receive quadruple therapy (amoxicillin, clarithromycin, pantoprazole, and bismuth) or PPI (pantoprazole) plus taVNS (produced by by Xi'an Bashui Health Technology Co., Ltd) at left tragus.
Patients were given taVNS thirty minutes twice a day in the morning and the night for four weeks (duty circle: 30s "on" periods and 30s "off" periods; frequency: 10 Hz; current intensity: minimal pain threshold; pulse width: 500 μs).

Patients were given taVNS thirty minutes twice a day in the morning and the night for four weeks (duty circle: 30s "on" periods and 30s "off" periods; frequency: 25 Hz; current intensity: minimal pain threshold; pulse width: 500 μs).

ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Control group
Based on the infection of Hp or not, patients will receive quadruple therapy (amoxicillin, clarithromycin, pantoprazole, and bismuth) or PPI (pantoprazole) plus taVNS (produced by by Xi'an Bashui Health Technology Co., Ltd) at left earlobe.
Patients were given taVNS thirty minutes twice a day in the morning and the night for four weeks (duty circle: 30s "on" periods and 30s "off" periods; frequency: 10 Hz; current intensity: minimal pain threshold; pulse width: 500 μs).

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Responder rate
Time Frame: 4 weeks
|
The proportion of patients whose Functional Dyspepsia Symptom Diary Total Symptom Scores were reduced ≥5 after four weeks treatment when compared with baseline.
|
4 weeks
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Functional Dyspepsia Symptom Diary (FDSD)
Time Frame: 4 weeks
|
The FDSD consists of 5 cardinal items (burning in the stomach, stomach pain, bloating, postprandial fullness, and early satiety) and 3 supplementary items (nausea, burping/belching rating, and burping/belching bother).
Each item can be scored from 0 (no) to 10 (worst).
Total Symptom Score includes the 5 cardinal items and ranges from 0 to 50.
|
4 weeks
|
Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS)
Time Frame: 4 weeks
|
The GSRS contains 15 items.
All individual items are scored on a 7-point Likert scale (1 = not at all to 7 = extremely) and are subsequently clustered into five domains (abdominal pain, reflux, indigestion, diarrhea, and constipation); higher scores indicate more severe symptoms.
|
4 weeks
|
Adequate relief rate
Time Frame: 4 weeks
|
The proportion of patients who acquire overall symptom relief when compared with baseline
|
4 weeks
|
Elimination rate of cardinal symptom
Time Frame: 4 weeks
|
The proportion of patients whose cardinal symptom is completely eliminated when compared with baseline.
|
4 weeks
|
Other Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Short Form of Nepean Dyspepsia Index (SF-NDI)
Time Frame: 4 weeks
|
The SF-NDI consists of 10 questions regarding the effects of dyspepsia symptoms ("stomach problems") on different aspects of life (tension, interference with daily activities, eating/drinking, knowledge/control, and work/study).
Each response can be from 1 (not at all affected) to 5 (extremely affected), or 0 (N/A), for a total summed score out of 50.
|
4 weeks
|
Hamilton Anxiety and Depression Scale
Time Frame: 4 weeks
|
Anxiety and depression of patients are assessed by using Hamilton Anxiety and Depression Scale. Hamilton Anxiety Scale consists of 14 items. Each item is scored on a scale from 0 (absent) to 4 (most severe) with a total score range of 0-56. Hamilton Depression Scale consists of 17 items. Individual items scored on 3 point (0 to 2) or 5 point scale (0 to 4); 0=absent, 4=most severe. Total score: 0 to 52. |
