Abstract:
Objective To analyze the acupoint selection rule of acupuncture and moxibustion in the treatment of gastrointestinal dysfunction associated with sepsis,thereby providing a reference for clinical treatment.Methods A systematic search was conducted in several databases,including China national knowledge infrastructure(CNKI),China Science Periodical Database,Chinese Science and Technology Journal Database,Chinese Biomedical literature database(CBM),Wanfang Data,and VIP Database,from the inception of the databases until September 30,2023.The collected literature was organized in an Excel database and subjected to descriptive analysis.Association rule analysis and cluster analysis were performed using SPSS 26.0 and SPSS Modeler 18.0 software.Results Finally,35 acupuncture and moxibustion prescriptions in 35 articles were selected for frequency statistics.The results showed 33 acupoints were used to treat gastrointestinal dysfunction in sepsis,with an overall frequency of use of 176 acupoints.The top 10 acupoints used by acupuncture and moxibustion for the treatment of gastrointestinal dysfunction in sepsis from high to low were Zusanli,Tianshu,Shangjuxu,Zhongwan,Neiguan,Xiajuxu,Guanyuan,Qihai,Shangwan,Xiawan.The top 3 were Zusanli(16.5%),Tianshu(13.6%),Shangjuxu(11.9%).The most commonly used meridians were the Foot Yangming Stomach Meridian(52.8%),Ren Meridian(23.9%),and Foot Taiyin Spleen Meridian(8.0%).The main sites for acupoint selection were the lower limbs(44.9%)and abdomen(41.5%).The most commonly used acupoints were combined acupoints below specific acupoints(35.2%),followed by recruited acupoints(27.8%).The results of high-frequency acupoint correlation analysis showed that the acupoints with the highest comprehensive support were Zusanli,Tianshu,Zhongwan,and Shangjuxu.Cluster analysis identified 5 effective clusters(Quchi acupoint-Sanyinjiao acupoint-Neiting acupoint-Daheng acupoint-Jiaji acupoint-Yinlingquan acupoint-Shangwan acupoint-Xiawan acupoint,Guanyuan acupoint-Qihai acupoint-Neiguan acupoint-Xiajuxu acupoint,Tianshu acupoint-Shangjuxu acupoint,Zhongwan acupoint,Zusanli acupoint)and 4 commonly used acupoint combinations(Guanyuan acupoint-Qihai acupoint-Neiguan acupoint-Xiajuxu acupoint,Tianshu acupoint-Shangjuxu acupoint,Zhongwan acupoint,Zusanli acupoint).Conclusions Acupuncture treatment for gastrointestinal dysfunction in sepsis is mainly based on the treatment of"spleen and stomach",with local acupoint selection and acupoint selection along the meridian as the main approach.It emphasizes the application of specific acupoints,especially the Xiahe and Mu acupoints.
