Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine therapy that is treatment by placing a needle or pressure in a specific position on the patient's skin. Although used in the treatment of various diseases, acupuncture is effective in the treatment of ischemic stroke (IS), and has made some progress in the mechanism of action of the treatment of this disease. IS is difficult to treat, and there is a high rate of disability. Drug therapy is usually the first line of treatment, but adjuvant therapy has outstanding efficacy in promoting the rehabilitation of the disease and preventing sequelae. Among them, acupuncture is getting more and more attention as a more popular treatment method. Therefore, this study excavates the high-quality randomized controlled trials and meta-analysis of acupuncture for IS in recent years to further summarize the efficacy of acupuncture for IS. In this review, we provide an overview of the current understanding of acupuncture and IS, and the current studies investigating the effectiveness of acupuncture in the treatment of IS.
针灸是一种传统的中医疗法,通过将针或压力置于患者皮肤的特定位置进行治疗。尽管针灸可用于治疗各种疾病,但在缺血性中风(IS)的治疗中效果显著,并在该疾病的治疗机制方面取得了一些进展。IS 难以治疗,残疾率较高。药物治疗通常是一线治疗方法,但辅助治疗在促进疾病康复和预防后遗症方面具有突出的疗效。其中,针灸作为一种更受欢迎的治疗方法越来越受到关注。因此,本研究挖掘了近年来针灸治疗 IS 的高质量随机对照试验和荟萃分析,以进一步总结针灸治疗 IS 的疗效。在这篇综述中,我们提供了对当前针灸和 IS 的理解的概述,以及当前研究调查针灸治疗 IS 的有效性。
