Abstract:
Objective To explore the current research situation,hotspots and development trend in the field of acupuncture and mox-ibustion intervention for post-stroke dysphagia(PSD). Methods The literature on acupuncture and moxibustion intervention for PSD was retrieved from CNKI,VIP and Wan-fang database from 1994 to December 31st,2023,and analyzed with VOSviewer and CiteSpace. Results A total of 1 816 articles were included,and the number of publications increased year by year,reaching a peak in 2021 with 180 articles.There were 274 core authors included in the literature,among which Cheng Hongliang,Zhou Hongfei and Feng Weixing were the authors with the highest publication volume.The First Affiliated Hos-pital of Tianjin University of Chinese Medicine was the most productive institution,and the connections between institutions were relatively scattered.The high-frequency keywords were swallowing dysfunction,stroke,acu-puncture and moxibustion therapy,as well as rehabilitation therapy,among which tongue triple acupuncture,elec-troacupuncture,nape acupuncture and scalp acupuncture were the most commonly used methods.In addition,acupuncture combined with rehabilitation training,electrical stimulation,or other methods for PSD and acupoint selection rules were also research hotspots.When evaluating the efficacy of acupuncture intervention for PSD,the focus gradually shifted from the effective rate to the use of videofluorographic swallowing study,water swal-lowing test,standardized swallowing assessment,surface electromyography and other indicators to evaluate the swallowing function and the severity of dysphagia. Conclusion Research on acupuncture and moxibustion interventions for PSD has developed rapidly,with hotspots in-cluding the selection of specific acupuncture and moxibustion techniques,the combination of acupuncture and moxibustion with other rehabilitation therapies,outcome indicators for acupuncture and moxibustion interven-tions in PSD,and the rules of acupoint selection.In the future,it is essential to strengthen academic exchanges and collaborations across institutions and regions.Greater emphasis should be placed on objective evaluation in-dicators of acupuncture and moxibustion therapies for improving the swallowing function in PSD patients,as well as on optimizing combinations of acupuncture and moxibustion with modern rehabilitation approaches,so as to better guide clinical practice.
