Abstract:Objective To compare the efficacy of five types of acupuncture for bronchial asthma based on Network Meta-analysis. Methods Search for Cochrane Library, Embase, PubMed, and China Biomedical Medical Database, VIP Database, Wanfang Database, CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure), the retrieval time range was from January 1, 2000 to October 10, 2019. collecting clinical randomized controlled trials about acupoint embedding, acupoint application, electroacupuncture, acupuncture and heat-sensitive moxibustion for bronchial asthma. Data extraction and quality evaluation shall be extracted separately by two evaluators and checked with each other. In case of disagreement, the third shall check again and discuss to solve the problem. Data processing was performed using Stata 14.0 software line data analysis. Results A total of 1 460 bronchial asthma patients were included in 19 clinical randomized controlled trials. The results of mesh meta-analysis showed that thermal moxibustion and acupoint sticking were superior to western medicine in terms of clinical total effective rate, and there were statistical differences(P<0.05). The optimal heat-sensitive moxibustion in ordering, followed by acupoint application, acupoint embedding, acupuncture, electroacupuncture, western medicine. Conclusion In five different acupuncture and moxibustion related therapies, heat-sensitive moxibustion has the best effect in treating bronchial asthma.
