针灸治疗肿瘤相关睡眠障碍的研究进展
Research Progress of Acupuncture Treating Cancer Related Sleep Disturbance
摘要: 中医针灸作为一种非药物疗法，在CRI的治疗中展现出独特优势。本文系统综述了针灸治疗肿瘤患者睡眠障碍的研究进展，从中医理论基础、临床研究方法及应用、作用机制等方面进行梳理分析。临床研究表明，耳针、电针、体针等多种针灸方法能有效改善肿瘤患者的睡眠质量，减轻焦虑抑郁状态，提高生活质量，其作用机制可能与调节神经递质、平衡炎症介质及调节昼夜节律有关。未来需要更多高质量研究进一步验证针灸的确切疗效并深入探索其作用机制。
Abstract: As a non-pharmacological therapy, acupuncture and moxibustion in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has demonstrated unique advantages in the treatment of cancer related insomnia (CRI). This article systematically reviews the research progress of acupuncture in treating sleep disorders in cancer patients, providing a comprehensive analysis from the perspectives of TCM theoretical foundations, clinical research methods and applications, and mechanisms of action. Clinical studies indicate that various acupuncture methods, such as auricular acupuncture, electroacupuncture, and body acupuncture, can effectively improve sleep quality in cancer patients, alleviate anxiety and depression, and enhance their quality of life. The mechanisms may be related to the regulation of neurotransmitters, balancing inflammatory mediators, and modulating circadian rhythms. Future high-quality research is needed to further validate the efficacy of acupuncture and explore its mechanisms in depth.
