Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is highly prevalent and a major burden on the healthcare system worldwide.
It has a severe impact on patients due to poor health-related quality of life (HRQL), dyspnea, and exertional intolerance.
Our previous meta-analysis revealed that body acupuncture therapy had adjuvant benefits of improving HRQL in COPD patients undergoing optimal medical treatment.
Previous studies indicated that treatment with combinations of acupoints was more effective than single acupoint treatment.
The association rule analysis has been widely used to explore relationships in acupoint combination.
Therefore, we aimed to investigate the potential core acupoint combination in COPD treatment by mining the association rules from the retrieved randomized control trials (RCTs) of the previous meta-analyses.
This study was conducted based on Apriori algorithm-based association rule analysis, which is a popular data mining method available in software R.
We extracted acupoints as binary data from the 12 included RCTs for analysis.
There were 27 acupoints extracted from 12 RCTs.
The top 10 frequently selected acupoints were BL12, BL13, BL20, BL23, BL43, CV17, EXB1, LU5, LU7, and ST36.
We investigated 2444 association rules, and the results showed that {ST36, BL12} ≥ {CV17}, {ST36, BL12} ≥ {EXB1}, {CV17, BL12} ≥ {ST36}, and {EXB1, BL12} ≥ {ST36} were the most associated rules in the retrieved RCTs.
The acupoint combinations of ST36, BL12, and CV17 and ST36, BL12, and EXB1 could be considered as the core of acupoint combination for further acupuncture treatment of COPD.
