Acupuncture combined with repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation for upper limb motor function after stroke: A systematic review and meta-analysis
BACKGROUND: Upper limb motor dysfunction after stroke is an important factor affecting patients’ motor function and daily life. Acupuncture and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation are effective methods for stroke rehabilitation. However, a systematic and comprehensive overview of the combined efficacy of the two is lacking. OBJECTIVE: Through a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials, this study aimed to assess the effectiveness of acupuncture combined with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on upper extremity motor function in post-stroke patients. METHODS: The relevant randomized controlled trials on acupuncture combined with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in the treatment of upper limb motor disorders after stroke were searched in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science CNKI, VIP, Wanfang, and CBM databases. After screening clinical trials that met the inclusion criteria, data extraction was conducted independently by two investigators. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS: After the screening, 18 articles were included, with a total of 1083 subjects. The results of meta-analysis showed that combination therapy could effectively improve the patients’ upper limb motor function (MD = 7.77, 95%CI [6.32, 9.22], P < 0.05), ability of daily living (MD = 8.53, 95%CI [6.28, 10.79], P < 0.05), and hemiplegic shoulder pain (MD = – 1.72, 95%CI [– 2.26, – 1.18], P < 0.05). Meanwhile, for neurophysiological indexes, combined treatment could significantly shorten the latency of motor evoked potential and central motor conduction time (MD = – 1.42, 95%CI [– 2.14, – 0.71], P < 0.05); (MD = – 0.47, 95%CI [– 0.66, – 0.29], P < 0.05), and also could increase the amplitude of motor evoked potential (SMD = 0.71, 95%CI [0.28, 1.14], P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: According to the results of the meta-analysis, we can conclude that acupuncture combined with repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation can significantly improve the upper limb motor function and daily living ability of stroke patients.
期刊介绍:
NeuroRehabilitation, an international, interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed journal, publishes manuscripts focused on scientifically based, practical information relevant to all aspects of neurologic rehabilitation. We publish unsolicited papers detailing original work/research that covers the full life span and range of neurological disabilities including stroke, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, neuromuscular disease and other neurological disorders.
We also publish thematically organized issues that focus on specific clinical disorders, types of therapy and age groups. Proposals for thematic issues and suggestions for issue editors are welcomed.
