摘要
Abstract Objectives A network meta‐analysis (NMA) was applied to compare the therapeutic effect of different acupuncture methods on temporomandibular disorder (TMD). Materials and Methods A computer retrieval was carried out in the English databases of Cochrane, PubMed, Embase and Web of Science, as well as the Chinese databases of CNKI, Wanfang and VIP for randomized controlled trials on the effect of acupuncture on TMD, with a retrieval deadline of January 21, 2024. Data analysis was conducted using R software and Bayesian method. The pain score served as the primary outcome measure, with the mouth opening as the secondary outcome measure. Results Thirty‐five articles were included in the analysis, involving 1937 TMD patients. The NMA results suggested that DN‐PT had the best effect on relieving pain and improving mouth opening. (Description of all abbreviations in Supplementary Material S3). Conclusions Based on the available evidence, the results of the NMA suggest that DN‐PT is most effective in relieving TMD pain and increasing mouth opening. However, due to the fact that some acupuncture therapies are only reported in a small number of research reports, this may lead to an increase in the randomness of the results and a decrease in the reliability.
