Summary
Purpose of this study is to investigate
1. The effect of Dry cupping therapy on T-Lymphocyte in post covid-19 patients.
2. The effect of Dry cupping therapy on serum Cytokine in post covid-19 patients.
3. The effect of Dry cupping therapy on Immunoglobulin IgA.
4. The effect of Dry cupping therapy on Immunoglobulin IgM.
5. The effect of Dry cupping therapy on Immunoglobulin IgG. seventy six patients of both
genders with deficiency in T-Lymphocyte number,,higher level of serum cytokine and lower
immunoglobulin IgA,IgM,IgG after two weeks of recovery from covid-19 . Age range from
Twenty one to Sixty six years old .They participated in the study and recruited from
surveillance unit of Shobra general hospital .These patients recruited by phone and have
been offered to participate in the programme.The patients were divided equally into two
groups (A and B). Assessment was done before and after treatment. T-Lymphocyte, serum
cytokine and immunoglobulin IgA, IgM and IgG were analyzed by kenza 240 TX from
fluorescence-labeled flow cytometry. Disposable cupping therapy instrument was used in
treatment of group (A) in addition to traditional medical treatment in the form of
vitamin C, D and anticoagulant drugs. Traditional medical treatment only was used in
treatment of group (B).The obtained results of this study will determine the significant
improvement of participated two groups.
