Abstrakt: Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of different acupuncture treatments in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation. Methods: Searching PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, web of by computer Science, Chinese Journal Full-text Database, Wanfang database, VIP database and Chinese biomedical literature database, the retrieval time is from the establishment of the database to January 1, 2020. Two researchers conducted literature screening, quality evaluation and data extraction according to the nano platoon standard, and used stata16.0 for network meta-analysis. Results: a total of 69 RCTs were included, involving 6168 patients with lumbar disc herniation, 5 kinds of acupuncture therapy (warm acupuncture, fire acupuncture, electroacupuncture, acupuncture thread embedding, general acupuncture). The results of network meta-analysis showed that the effect of electroacupuncture was inferior to that of warm acupuncture, acupuncture thread embedding, and the effect of general acupuncture was inferior to that of warm acupuncture, fire acupuncture, electroacupuncture, acupuncture thread embedding, and the difference was statistically significant. In terms of efficiency, acupuncture and moxibustion embedding thread > warming acupuncture and moxibustion > fire acupuncture > electroacupuncture > ordinary acupuncture. Conclusion: in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation, the clinical effect of acupuncture thread embedding is better than the other four interventions. However, the quality and quantity of literature in this study are limited, and the conclusion of this study needs to be verified by high-quality RCT with multiple centers and large samples.
