Meta Analysis on Effectiveness of Needling in Treatment of Epilepsy

Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of needling in the treatment of epilepsy. Methods: Retrieving Chinese Biomedical Documentation CD-ROM Database (CBM), Chinese Journal Full Text Database (CNKI), Chongqing VIP Database (VIP), Wanfang Resource Database, to “acupuncture or needling OR prod “and “epilepsy or epilepsies or seizure disorder or single seizure” in combination retrieves PubMed, Google Scholar, Cochrane Library databases, collects random needling for the treatment of epilepsy Controlled trial (RCT) study materials, evidence quality evaluation using GRAND profile 3.6, analysis of its total effective outcome indicators using RevMan 5.3 and STATA 14.0 software. Results: A total of 11 literature, a total of 827 patients.Meta analysis shows needling or combined with other conventional drug therapies The total clinical efficacy of epilepsy is better than conventional drug therapies, and the difference is statistically significant [OR=3.94,95% CI (2.49,6.24), Z=5.85, P<0.00001]; there is statistical heterogeneity between studies of acerbic therapy for epilepsy (P=0.04, I2=60%), this section is not feasible Meta analysis; Needling combined Chinese medicine is superior to Chinese medicine treatment, Differences are statistically significant [OR=4.61,95% CI (2.18,9.74), Z=4.01, P<0.0001]; needling combined with western medicine is better than western medicine, the difference is statistically significant [OR=3.07,95% CI (1.24,7.65), Z=2.41, P=0.02]. Conclusion: Clinical actinting for epilepilepsy treatment determined superiority, but The results above need further validation as well as the quality of the rigorous design and methodological science with low reliability.
