Objective:To systematically evaluate the efficacy of Moxibustion in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis, and to provide a reasonable supplementary scheme for clinical medical treatment by analyzing the results of Moxibustion in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis and related experimental studies.Methods:Computerized retrieval of CNKI, Wanfang, PubMed and other databases from January 2009 to June 2019, published clinical controlled trials of Moxibustion in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis, and retrospective references of the required literature to improve the relevant literature retrieval, if there are documents that can not be downloaded, Manual search was carried out and the literature was included after quality evaluation. Meta-analysis was carried out with Review Manager 5.3 software.Results:A total of 1207 patients with knee osteoarthritis were included in 15pieces of literature. (1) In terms of total effective rate, moxibustion was superior to conventional Western drugs. Meta-analysis showed that RR=1.21,95%CI [1.14,1.28],Z=6.44,P < 0.00001;(2) In VAS score, moxibustion was superior to conventional Western drugs, meta-analysis of two groups: WMD=-2.71, 95% CI [-4.90, -0.52], Z=2.43,P < 0.05;(3) In WOMAC score, moxibustion was superior to conventional Western drugs, meta-analysis of two groups: WMD=-6.79,95%CI [-12.35,-1.23],Z=2.39,P < 0.05;(4) WOMAC pain. In terms of pain score, moxibustion was superior to conventional Western drugs. Meta-analysis showed that WMD=-1.34,95%CI [-2.50,-0.17],Z=2.25,P < 0.05;(5) knee joint function. On the contrary, moxibustion was superior to conventional Western drugs. Meta-analysis showed that WMD = 12.54, 95% CI [6.93, 18.15], Z = 4.28,P < 0.01;(6) In Lysholm index, moxibustion was superior to conventional Western drugs. Meta-analysis showed that WMD = 12.13, 95% CI [6.87, 17.39], Z = 4.52,P < 0.01;(7) In Lequesne index, moxibustion was superior to conventional Western drugs. Routine western drugs, meta-analysis: WMD =-4.22, 95% CI [-5.74, -2.70], Z = 5.45,P < 0.01.Conclusions: The efficacy of Moxibustion in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis is better than that of conventional western drug therapy, but a large sample size and high quality randomized controlled trials are still needed to verify and analyze.
