方法:
2

To clarify the key outcomes of acupuncture-moxibustion treatment of ulcerative colitis.
Methods
2
The clinical randomized controlled trials (RCTs) for ulcerative colitis treated with acupuncture and moxibustion were searched from CNKI
Wanfang
VIP
SinoMed
PubMed
EMbase
Cochrane Library
and Web of Science
from the inception of each database to March 20th
2023. The basic information of literature
intervention measures and outcome indexes were collected. The selection of primary and secondary outcomes
the use frequency of each index and the combination of them in utility were analyzed; and index domains of acupuncture and moxibustion for ulcerative colitis were summarized.
Results
2
A total of 215 RCTs were included and 54 outcomes were involved
classified into 6 categories
i.e. TCM syndromes
symptoms/physical signs
physical and chemical tests
quality of life
long-term prognosis and safety events. The top 3 outcomes with high use frequency were clinical effect evaluation
adverse reactions of acupuncture and moxibustion and the score of main symptoms. Only 3 articles clearly reported the primary outcome and the secondary ones
180 articles used two types of outcomes simultaneously
3 articles clearly described the time points of the observation indexes
and 126 articles determined the sources of the evaluation criteria of therapeutic effect
with 57 criteria involved.
Conclusion
2
At present
the outcomes have not been standardized in RCTs of acupuncture and moxibustion for ulcerative colitis. It needs to clarify the primary one and the secondary ones. The criteria have not been unified for the evaluation of therapeutic effects and there is less consideration on the quality of life in patients
the follow-up visit and safety events. The attention should be paid to develop the outcome set
in which
the endoscopic score is taken as the objective
and the improvements in the symptoms/physical signs and the biochemical examination as the supplementary.
