“The rules of acupoint selection and acupoint compatibility in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) with acupuncture and moxibustion have been deeply studied. The research team established a database of acupuncture and moxibustion treatment of IBD by searching relevant literature, and used complex network technology for analysis. The study found that the selection principle of acupuncture and moxibustion for the treatment of IBD is mainly to select the points in the chest and abdomen, while paying attention to the matching of points far and near, and the Mu point among the specific points is widely used. This study provides an important reference for point selection of acupuncture and moxibustion in the treatment of IBD.”
