Abstract:
Objective To investigate the characteristics and patterns of electroacupuncture parameters in hypertension mechanism research using data mining technology.Methods Computerized searches were conducted in multiple databases including China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),Wanfang Academic Journal Full-text Database,VIP Chinese Sci-Tech Journal Database,China Biology Medicine disc(CBM),PubMed,and Web of Science.The search period spanned from the inception of each database to July 2024.Basic research studies on electroacupuncture treatment for hypertension were collected to establish an electroacupuncture parameter database for hypertension.Descriptive statistics and association analysis were performed on the extracted data.Results The initial search yielded 13 977 publications.After screening,112 articles were ultimately included for analysis.The analysis revealed that the top three most frequently used acupoints were Zusanli(ST36),Quchi(LI11),and Taichong(LR3).The most commonly employed stimulation parameters were:continuous wave,2 Hz frequency,1 mA or 2 mA intensity,once daily treatment,30 minutes per session,with a total treatment duration of 28 days or 14 days.Conclusion In hypertension mechanism research,electroacupuncture stimulation parameters are predominantly characterized by low-frequency and low-intensity stimulation,with a treatment duration typically of 28 days.However,these parameter characteristics are primarily applied in mechanistic studies,and their translation to clinical practice requires further investigation.
