摘要
Objective: To review year 1956-2007 literature and explore the regularity of points selection and methods for acupuncture-moxibustion treatment of insomnia. Methods: A comprehensive analysis was made by a method of metrological review according to the data from "China Modern Acupuncture-moxibustion Information Databank". Results: It is indicated that points Sanyinjiao (SP 6) and Shenmen (HT 7) were most frequently used. Acupuncture was the main treatment. Conclusion: It is suggested that Baihui (GV 20), Sishencong (Ex-HN 1), Sanyinjiao (SP 6) and Shenmen (HT 7) were used as basic points for acupuncture-moxibustion treatment of insomnia, which is combined with point selection based on syndrome differentiation. © Shanghai Research Institute of Acupuncture and Meridian and Springer Berlin Heidelberg 2010.
