Abstract
Objective: To excavate the main acupoints selection for cervical radiculopathy by using statistical methods and data mining methods. Methods: CNKI, CBM, Wanfang, VIP were searched for literature published from 1978-2016. Descriptive analysis, association rules analysis was made by SPSS 17.0 software. Results: The top 5 meridian with the highest frequency of application were Du meridian, Large intestine meridian, Extra meridian, Gallbladder meridians and Small intestine meridian. Dazhui, Jiaji and Quchi were used mostly frequently. Conclusion: It is feasible to apply the data mining technology to the analysis of the law of the points, and the results can be directly used to guide the clinical treatment of acupuncture and moxibustion.
