This study will investigate whether the combination of moxibustion and characteristic lifestyle intervention of TCM can alleviate the clinical symptoms and improve quality of life and mental health in patients with abdominal obesity. The results are expected to provide clinical evidence for the application of the combination of moxibustion and characteristic lifestyle intervention of TCM in patients with abdominal obesity.
This study will be a randomized controlled trial conducted from January, 2020 to January, 2022 that includes 150 participants who have abdominal obesity and meet the eligibility criteria. The participants will be randomly divided into 3 groups in a 2:2:1 allocation ratio.The intervention group will receive moxibustion combined with characteristic lifestyle intervention of TCM;the other group will receive moxibustion combined with lifestyle intervention;the control group will receive lifestyle intervention only.Each treatment will last 12 weeks including 8 weeks of intervention period and 4 weeks of follow-up period. The primary outcome is the waist circumference(WC),the secondary outcomes include obesity-related indicators,serum biochemical indexs,blood pressure, conversion score of constitution characteristics, and measurement of the scale.Adverse events will be recorded during the intervention and follow-up period.

| Changes in body fat percentage | The body fat percentage (BFP) of a human or other living being is the total mass of fat divided by total body mass, multiplied by 100. Body fat percentage will be measured by a body composition analyzer (OMRON V.BODY). | week 0,week 2,week 4,week 6,week 8,week 12 |

| Changes in Conversion score of constitution characteristics | The scale classification of the patient's constitution according to Traditional Chinese Medicine theory into nine constitutions. The Constitution in Chinese Medicine Questionnaire (CCMQ) consists of 60 items to classify a person into one or more of nine body constitution types: balanced (8 Items), Qi-deficiency (8 Items), Yang-deficiency (7 Items), Yin-deficiency (8 Items), phlegm-wetness (8 Items), wetness-heat (6 Items), blood-stasis (7 Items), Qi-depression (7 Items), and special diathesis (7 Items). A higher score in the CCMQ scale indicates a higher likelihood of the specific body constitution. The original score is sum up each item's score. The conversion score of constitution characteristics is [(original scores- items)/(items*40]*100. The balanced constitution is the converted score >60 and the rest constitutions' converted scores all < 30. The unbalanced constitution is the converted score ≥40. | week 0, week 8, week 12 |

Scores range from 10 to 50; a higher score indicates more psychological distress. | week 0, week 8, week 12 |
