Abstract:
Objective:To summarize and analyze the acupoint selection law of acupuncture and moxibustion for the treatment of schizophrenia using data mining techniques and network visualization technology.Methods:The literature related to the treatment of schizophrenia through acupuncture and moxibustion was retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, SinoMed, Chinese Medical Journal Full-text Database, PubMed and Web of Science from the establishment of the databases to December 31, 2022. A database was established using Excel 2013 software and frequency analysis of acupoints was conducted; the Apriori algorithm was used to analyze the association law of acupoints; SPSS Statistics 25.0 and SPSS Modeler 18.0 software were used for acupoint clustering analysis to explore the acupoint selection law.Results:A total of 133 articles were included, involving 133 acupuncture prescriptions and 158 acupoints, with a total frequency of 1131 times. The most frequently used acupoints were Baihui (GV20) (71 times), Zusanli (ST36) (51 times), Neiguan (PC6) (45 times). Commonly used meridians were Governor Vessel, and stomach meridian, etc. According to the analysis of association rules, 108 association rules of acupoints were obtained, and common compatibility of acupoints was Baihui (GV20)-Yintang (GV24)-Zusanli (ST36), Baihui (GV20)-Shenting (GV24), Baihui (GV20)-Yintang (GV24), Daling (PC7)-Laogong (PC8), etc. Four major clusters were obtained through clustering analysis of commonly used acupoints.Conclusion:Modern acupuncture and moxibustion is mainly used to regulate yin and yang and balance qi and blood in the treatment of schizophrenia. The acupoint selection is based on Baihui-Yintang-Neiguan-Hegu acupoint prescription, and other acupoints are added according to concurrent syndromes, which can not only give full play to the synergistic effect of acupoints, but also promote the recovery of motor and sensory functions.
