The acupoint selection rules of acupuncture in the treatment of the heart and spleen deficiency type insomnia based on data mining techniques
Objective:To deeply explore the acupoint selection rules of acupuncture in the treatment of the heart and spleen deficiency type insomnia through data mining technique.Methods:Relevant literature published from the establishment of each database to March 5,2023 was retrieved and sorted out for a quantitative analysis of the relevant data by Excel after selection according to inclusion and exclusion criteria,and then association rule analysis and cluster analysis were performed by SPSS software.Results:A total of 99 articles were included finally,involving 75 acupoints,with a total applied frequency of 701 times.Shenmen point(HT7),Sanyinjiao point(SP6),Baihui point(DU20),Pishu point(BL20),Xinshu point(BL 15),and Zusanli point(ST36)were used more frequently in all acupoints.The bladder meridian,Du meridian(督脉),and extraordinary acupoints were the main meridians of the acupoints,and the head,face,neck,and lower limbs were the main distribution parts of applied points.Specific acupoints accounted for 74.67％of the total applied acupoints,mainly including confluent points,five transport points,and back-shu points(背俞穴).Sixteen strong association rules were obtained by the association analysis,among which the mated points with the highest support degree were Xinshu point(BL15)-Pishu point(BL20),and five effective cluster groups were obtained by the cluster analysis.Conclusion:Acupuncture treatment of the heart and spleen deficiency type insomnia focuses on the principle of tonifying the heart and spleen,and nourishing blood and calming the mind,with the principle of selecting acupoints based on differentiation as the core.The bladder meridian back-shu points and Du meridian points are highly selected to regulate the function of the heart and spleen,and the selected points are mainly specific acupoints,reflecting the idea of combining local points and distal points.In general,the acupoint selection rules and characteristics are preliminarily obtained,aiming to provide more targeted acupoints for the clinical treatment of insomnia.
