Clinical Research Progress of Acupuncture-moxibustion for Chronic Urticaria

摘要

To learn the current research status of acupuncture-moxibustion in treating chronic urticaria,the relevant clinical reports indexed by CNKI and VIP databases during 2000 and 2012 were retrieved,and then summarized and analyzed from the aspects of treatment method,acupoint selection,medicine,treatment frequency,and criteria of therapeutic efficacy,for guiding the treatment of chronic urticaria with acupuncture-moxibustion.The results show that acupuncture-moxibustion therapy has stable therapeutic efficacy in treating chronic urticaria with low adverse reaction rate,but the current evaluation criteria are too subjective to quantify.
