Abstract:
Objective:To understand the research hotspots and research trends of Chinese literature about acupuncture and moxibustion treatment for post-stroke depression (PSD).Methods:Research literature on the treatment of post-stroke depression with acupuncture and moxibustion was retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang Data, and Chongqing VIP from January 1,2002 to August 31,2023. CiteSpace 6.1.R6 software was used to visually analyze the authors, research institutions and key words.Results:A total of 734 articles were included. Wang Zhen, Xiao Wei and Zhang Xianbao (the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Chinese Medicine) published the most articles (12 articles each). The Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Chinese Medicine had the largest number of articles (32 articles), and the inter-agency cooperation was mainly based on TCM colleges and their affiliated hospitals. In addition to the search terms, the keywords with higher frequency were efficacy observation, acupuncture and medicine, nerve function, etc., and 10 representative keyword clusters were obtained. The acupoints with high frequency were Baihui, Neiguan, Taichong, etc., and 13 common acupuncture methods and acupoint combinations used in different acupuncture methods were obtained, as well as 8 representative acupoint clusters. The main treatment methods were acupuncture, acupuncture and moxibustion, fluoxetine and so on.Conclusions:The research hotspots of acupuncture and moxibustion in the treatment of PSD mainly lie in the observation of the efficacy of acupuncture and moxibustion, the study of the mechanism, and the summary of the experience of famous experts. The research trend is to explore how to use acupuncture and moxibustion, medicine, music and other combined treatment to improve clinical symptoms and improve the overall quality of life of patients.
