Objective： To provide an evidence-based overview regarding the efficacy of Ashi points stimulation for the treatment of shoulder pain. Methods： A comprehensive search [PubMed, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI）, Chongqing Weipu Database for Chinese Technical Periodicals （VIP） and Wanfang Database] was conducted to identify randomized or quasi-randomized controlled trials that evaluated the effectiveness of Ashi points stimulation for shoulder pain compared with conventional treatment. The methodological quality of the included studies was assessed using the Cochrane risk of bias tool. RevMan 5.0 was used for data synthesis. Results： Nine trials were included. Seven studies assessed the effectiveness of Ashi points stimulation on response rate compared with conventional acupuncture. Their results suggested significant effect in favour of Ashi points stimulation [odds ratio （OR）： 5.89, 95% confidence interval （CI）： 2.97 to 11.67, P〈0.01, heterogeneity： x 2=3.81, P=0.70, 12=0% ]. One trial compared Ashi points stimulation with drug therapy. The result showed there was a significantly greater recovery rate in group of Ashi points stimulation （OR： 9.58, 95% CI： 2.69 to 34.12）. One trial compared comprehensive treatment on the myofascial trigger points （MTrPs） with no treatment and the result was in favor of MTrPs. Conclusions： Ashi points stimulation might be superior to conventional acupuncture, drug therapy and no treatment for shoulder pain. However, due to the low methodological quality of included studies, a firm conclusion could not be reached until further studies of high quality are available.
目的运用网状Meta分析评价中成药用于辅助治疗阿尔茨海默病的疗效及安全性。方法计算机检索PubMed、Web of Science、Embase、Cochrane Library、中国知网、万方、中国生物医学文献数据库(CBM)收录的口服中成药治疗阿尔茨海默病的随机对照试验,检索时限为各数据库建库至2022年4月。2名研究员独立进行文献筛选、数据提取并对纳入的研究进行质量评价,应用Stata 16对数据进行传统Meta分析以及网状Meta分析。结果最终纳入35项研究,包括复方海蛇胶囊、天智颗粒、银杏叶、六味地黄丸等8种中成药。网状Meta分析结果显示,(1)认知评估:在改善简易智力状态评分方面,最优的前3种干预措施为复方苁蓉益智胶囊联合处方药>红景天胶囊联合处方药>六味地黄丸联合处方药;在改善阿尔茨海默病评估量表-认知方面,最优的前3种干预措施为复方苁蓉益智胶囊联合处方药>复方海蛇胶囊联合处方药>复方丹参片联合处方药。(2)在治疗总有效率方面,最优的前3种干预措施为复方苁蓉益智胶囊联合处方药>复方海蛇胶囊联合处方药>天智颗粒联合处方药。(3)在提高日常生活活动能力方面,最优的前3种干预措施为银杏叶联合处方药>复方海蛇胶囊联合处方药>天智颗粒联合处方药。(4)在不良反应方面,不良反应发生较少的前3种方案为天智颗粒联合处方药>复方海蛇胶囊联合处方药>银杏叶联合处方药。结论中成药联合胆碱酯酶抑制剂或谷氨酸受体拮抗剂可有效改善阿尔茨海默病患者的认知功能、提高日常生活活动能力,治疗效果均优于单用处方药,且安全性较好,未观察到有明显增加不良反应发生的风险。但纳入的研究方法学质量普遍偏低,故结论仍待更多大样本、高质量的研究进一步验证。
