Abstract:Objective To analyze the acupoint selection rules of acupuncture and moxibustion treatment for tumor diseases from pre-Qin period to late Qing Dynasty in Chinese Medical Code based on data mining technology. Methods Ancient documents on acupuncture and moxibustion treatment of tumor diseases from pre-Qin period to late Qing Dynasty were searched in the 5th edition of Chinese Medical Code. Screening was performed according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, and treatment prescriptions were extracted. IBM SPSS Statistics 26 was used for statistical analysis of acupoints in the prescription and distribution of meridians. IBM SPSS Modeler 18.0 software was used for cluster analysis and association rule analysis. Results A total of 496 acupuncture and moxibustion prescriptions were extracted, including 167 acupoints, and the total frequency of acupoints was 939. The top five acupoints on the frequency of use were qìhǎi, zhōngwǎn, zhōngjí, píshù, and sānjiāoshù. The top five meridians in the ranking frequency were conception vessel, bladder meridian of foot-taiyang, and stomach meridian of foot-yangming. Correlation analysis obtained eight groups of strong correlation acupoints compatibility, among which “zhāngmén-zhōngwǎn” ranked first. Ten effective cluster groups were obtained by using icicle diagram for clustering analysis. Conclusion In the treatment of tumor by acupuncture and moxibustion, it is suggested to take conception vessel point to cultivate and supplement yuan qi as the main, and at the same time to supplement the dialectical point selection.
