CONSORT和STRICTA标准对针刺治疗偏头痛的随机对照试验报告质量的评价

Assessing the Reporting Quality of Randomized Controlled Trials on Acupuncture for Migraine Using the CONSORT and STRICTA Statement

目的:采用CONSORT和STRICTA标准对针刺治疗偏头痛随机对照试验的报告质量进行评价。方法:以中文和英文为语种限制,系统检索Cochrane图书馆临床对照试验数据库、PubMed、OVID、Med-line、EBSCO、EMbase、中国生物医学文献数据库、中文科技期刊全文数据库、中文学术期刊全文数据库、万方数据库共10个数据库,手工检索所有中文针灸杂志、中医药核心期刊及已纳入文献的参考文献。对筛选出的针刺治疗偏头痛的随机对照试验文献,采用国际公认的CONSORT声明和报告针刺临床试验中干预措施的国际标准(STRICTA)进行报告质量的评价。结果:根据CONSORT条目,在纳入的针刺治疗偏头痛的95篇报告中,53篇(55.8%)描述了各组的基线情况和临床特征;34篇(35.8%)提及产生随机分配序列的方法;仅有11篇(11.6%)分配方案隐藏充分;15篇(15.8%)采用盲法的文献中只有7篇采用双盲;13篇(13.7%)提及样本含量的计算。根据STRICTA条目,在95篇文献中有41篇(43.2%)报道了针刺深度,49篇(51.6%)报道了针刺反应,69篇(72.6%)报道了刺激方式,79篇(83.2%)报道了留针时间,但只有4篇(4.2%)报道了用针数目。总共只有4篇(4.2%)文献提及治疗师的专业技能,但有33篇表述了操作者的职称。结论:目前针刺治疗偏头痛的RCT研究报告质量普遍不高。今后应提倡采用国际公认的CONSORT声明和STRICTA标准对针刺疗法的RCT研究进行规范报告。
