摘要
目的:评价针灸治疗膝骨性关节炎的疗效。方法:对针灸治疗膝骨性关节炎的随机对照试验(RCT)进行Meta-分析。统计方法数据使用专用软件RevMan 4.2.8版进行统计分析。结果:6篇RCT共500例患者满足纳入标准。Meta-分析的结果,针刺组和药物组比较,有效率的相对危险度(RR)为2.26,95%的可信区间(1.71,2.99),P<0.00001;总均分的加权均数差值(WMD)为9.83,95%的可信区间(6.21,13.45),P<0.00001。结论:针灸治疗膝骨性关节炎疗效优于西药,且副作用少,具有安全性。但由于临床试验方法学质量不高,尚需要高质量的试验进一步证实。

The data were statistically analyzed with a special software RevMan 4.2. 8. Results : Six papers of RCT including 500 patients met the enrolled criteria. Meta-analysis indicated that relative risk was 2.26,95% confidence interval( 1.71,2. 99 ) ,P 〈 0. 00001 ;weighted mean difference was 9. 83,95% confidence interval( 6. 21,13.45 ) ,P 〈 0. 00001, as acupuncture group compared with drug group. Conclusion :The therapeutic effect of acupuncture and moxibustion on knee osteoarthritis is superior to that of drug group with safety and less adverse reactions.
