Meta-analysis on randomized controlled trials for scalp acupuncture treatment of stroke: A systematic review.

Objectiv:To compare the therapeutic effect of scalp-electroacupuncture with that of conventional body acupuncture for apoplexy (wind stroke) and to observe the influence of both acupuncture therapies on hemorheology of ischemic apoplexy. Methods: 183 patients, whose diseases are attributed to apoplexy according to the diagnostic criteria, are randomly divided into treatment group (93 cases) and control group (90 cases) and treated respectively with scalp-electroacupuncture and conventional body acupuncture. 11 items of hemorheology of patients' blood samples are tested with NXE- 1 Viscometer which are taken in the early morning before and after treatment under fasting condition. Results: Both scalp-electroacupuncture and conventional body acupuncture exert therapeutic effect for apoplexy, but the effect of scalp-electroacupuncture is obviously better than that of conventional acupuncture (P＜0.05); both treatment group and control group are statistically significant in reducing plasma viscosity, high shear reduced viscosity, low shear reduced viscosity, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, hematocrit and fibrinogen, (P＜0.01and 0.05); while the treatment group is statistically significant in reducing whole blood viscosity, ratio of whole blood viscosity, erythrocyte index of rigidity and electrophoresis time of erythrocyte (P＜0.01～0.05), but the control group is not significant statistically in influencing these indexes (P＞0.05).
