Methods Computer retrieval was carried out in such databases as Pub Med, Embase, Cochrane Library, web of science, Chinese biomedicine database(CBM), China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI), Wan Fang and VIP in order to collect the randomized controlled trials(RCT) concerning acupoint stimulation therapy for treatment of POI. Software R 3.40 and stata 14.0 were used for Meta-analysis and network Meta-analysis, and Rev Man 5.3 was used for plotting the risk bias diagrams. Results Fortythree RCTs were included in total, involving 3046 POI patients and 18 acupoint stimulation therapies and comprehensive therapies. Metaanalysis showed:(1) The curative effects of acupoint stimulation therapy(RR=1.25, 95%CI [1.07,1.45]), acupoint stimulation therapy+Chinese herbal medicine(RR=1.25, 95%CI [1.18,1.32]) and acupoint stimulation therapy+ hormone replacement therapy(HRT)(RR=1.20, 95%CI [1.12,1.29]) were all superior to that of HRT, indicating that the differences were statistically significant(Z=2.90, P=0.04; Z=7.56, P〈0.000 01; Z=4.06, P〈0.000 01).(2) Compared with HRT, the occurrence rate of adverse effect of acupoint stimulation therapy was lower, and the safety was superior to that of HRT(RR=0.18, 95%CI [0.08,0.41]), indicating that the differences were statistically significant(Z=4.08, P〈0.000 1). Forty-two direct comparisons and 110 indirect comparisons were generated according to network Meta-analysis, among which, 38 comparisons were statistically significant. Network Metaanalysis results with HRT as control showed: the therapeutic measures ranking top 3 according to the curative effect sequence were catgut embedment in acupoint, moxibustion and warming-needle moxibustion, successively, and all the 3 measures were monotherapies without reflecting the advantages of comprehensive therapy. HRT ranked 17 th among the 18 included therapeutic measures. Conclusion On the basis of current evidences, acupoint stimulation therapy has a better clinical efficacy and safety for treatment of POI when compared with HRT. The acupoint stimulation therapies ranking the top 3 have more significant curative effects, but the long-term efficacy and the effect on the ovarian function still need to be further explored. In addition, the conclusion of this study still needs to be verified through a large number of RCTs with reasonable designs and appropriate methods.展开更多

Methods: A total of 170 patients confirmed by biopsy and surgical pathology and treated with radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer were randomly divided into an acupuncture group, an observation group and a control group by random digital table. Fifty-six cases in the acupuncture group were treated with acupuncture after surgery, one session each day, till the extubation day; 58 cases in the observation group were treated with acupuncture plus medium-frequency electric stimulation after surgery, one session each day, till the extubation day; and 56 cases in the control group didn't receive any intervention, and the catheter was retained till the extubation day. On the postoperative day 14, all groups were dealt with catheterization to determine the residual urine volume, in order to observe the occurrence rate of urinary retention and the recovery of bladder function and to compare the differences of the therapeutic effects among the groups. Results: The occurrence rates of urinary retention were respectively 16.1%, 20.7% and 46.4% in the acupuncture group, observation group and control group, with significant differences (P〈0.05). When comparing the acupuncture group and the observation group with the control group, there were significant differences (both P〈0.05). In comparison between the acupuncture group and the observation group, there was no significant difference (P〉0.05). The recovery rates of bladder function in the three group were respectively 42.9%, 60.3% and 41.1% without significant differences (P〉0.05). Moreover, there were no significant between-group differences (P〉0.05), but acupuncture plus medium-frequency electric stimulation showed a better tendency. Conclusion: The single application of acupuncture therapy is effective and able to prevent urinary retention after radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer. Acupuncture plus medium-frequency electric stimulation can effectively enhance the recovery of bladder function and reduce the residual urine volume in the bladder to the maximum.展开更多
