摘要
背景针灸已被推荐为治疗癌症相关症状的非药物干预措施。然而，关于癌症针灸治疗的总体趋势和特点的文献计量分析研究很少。本研究旨在总结针灸作为癌症相关症状干预措施的现状和文献计量学特征。方法收集截至2020年10月1日发表的所有关于针灸治疗癌症相关症状的临床研究论文，来源于PubMed和Web of Science数据库。提取纳入研究的数据以反映以下项目：发表年份、期刊、国家或地区、机构、临床适应症和针灸处方。采用文献计量学方法分析其特点。结果共收录论文226篇。自2004年以来，此类出版物的数量稳步增加。这226篇文章发表在94篇英文期刊上，其中癌症综合疗法（18篇）和针灸医学（14篇）是最多产的。纳入的研究分布在20个国家和地区，其中排名前两位的是美利坚合众国（68篇文章）和中国（60篇文章）。研究涉及的癌症类型包括乳腺癌、胃癌、头颈部癌等。针灸主要用于治疗并发症和副作用，其中恶心呕吐、疼痛、潮热和疲劳是最常见的癌症相关症状。针灸是最常用的治疗方法，最常用的四个穴位是内关(内关 PC6）、三阴交(三阴交 SP6），足三里(足三里 ST36）和合谷(合谷 LI4）。具体的针灸处方取决于个别患者的症状。结论针灸作为癌症相关症状的辅助疗法的研究正在稳步发展，研究结果在越来越多的主流医学杂志上发表。因此，该领域有望在未来受到更多关注。
Bibliometric characteristics of clinical studies on acupuncture for the management of cancer-related symptoms
Background
Acupuncture has been recommended as a nonpharmacological intervention for managing cancer-related symptoms. However, there are few bibliometric analysis-based studies concerning the overall trends and characteristics in acupuncture therapy for cancer management. This study aims to summarize the status and bibliometric characteristics of acupuncture as an intervention for cancer-related symptoms.
Methods
All clinical research papers on acupuncture for the management of cancer-related symptoms published up to October 1, 2020 were collected from the PubMed and Web of Science databases. Data on the included studies were extracted to reflect the following items: publication year, journal, country or region, institution, clinical indications, and acupuncture prescriptions. Characteristics were analyzed using bibliometric methods.
Results
A total of 226 papers were included. The number of such publications has increased steadily since 2004. The 226 articles were published in 94 English journals, with Integrative Cancer Therapies (18 articles) and Acupuncture in Medicine (14 articles) being the most prolific. The included studies are distributed across 20 countries and regions, among which the top two are the United States of America (68 articles) and China (60 articles). The types of cancer the studies addressed include breast, gastric, head and neck, etc. Acupuncture is mainly employed in the treatment of complications and side effects, among which nausea and vomiting, pain, hot flashes, and fatigue are the most frequently treated cancer-related symptoms. Acupuncture is the most commonly used treatment therapy, and the four most frequently used acupoints used are Neiguan (内关 PC6), Sanyinjiao (三阴交 SP6), Zusanli (足三里 ST36), and Hegu (合谷 LI4). The specific acupuncture prescription depends on individual patients’ symptoms.
Conclusion
Research on acupuncture as an adjunctive therapy for cancer-related symptoms is developing steadily, with results being reported in a growing number of mainstream medical journals. Hence, this field is expected to receive more attention in the future.
