Abstract:
Objective To analyze the acupoint selection law of acupuncture and moxibustion for pediatric cerebral palsy based on data mining techniques.Methods Clinical research literature about acupuncture and moxibustion for the treatment of pediatric cerebral palsy was retrieved from CNKI,Wanfang Data,VIP,CBM,PubMed,Web of Science,Embase and Cochrane Library from the establishment of the databases to April 1,2024.Excel 2021 was used to establish a database of prescription acupoints.The frequency of use of acupoints,attributed to the meridians,parts and specific acupoints were under statistically analysis,and SPSS Modeler 18.0 and SPSS Statistics 27.0 were used to conduct the association rules analysis,factor analysis and clustering analysis of acupoints.Results A total of 579 articles were included,579 prescriptions were extracted,containing 245 acupoints with the frequency of 6 422 times.The high-frequency acupoints were Zusanli,Baihui,Hegu,Sanyinjiao and Quchi,etc.The commonly used meridians were Governor Vessel,gall bladder meridian,stomach meridian,large intestine meridian and bladder meridian;mostly used acupoints were in the lower limbs,head and neck,upper limbs,waist and back.The association rules analysis showed that the top combinations were"Hegu-Quchi","Zusanli-Quchi","Zusanli-Quchi-Hegu","Hegu-Quchi-Zusanli";clustering analysis showed that 6 valid clusters were extracted;factor analysis extracted 7 valid common factors.Conclusion Acupuncture and moxibustion treatment for pediatric cerebral palsy is based on the principle of strengthening the brain,improving intelligence and tonifying the five zang organs,reflecting the principle of matching acupoints far and near.The core combination of acupoints is"Zusanli-Quchi-Hegu".
