Objective:To explore the acupoint selection patterns in acupuncture treatment of post-stroke depression using data mining techniques.Methods:Clinical research literature on acupuncture treatment of post-stroke depression was retrieved by computer from major databases including CNKI,Wanfang,VIP,and PubMed.A database of acupoint prescriptions was established using Excel 2021,and SPSS Modeler 18.0 and SPSS Statistics 26.0 software were used to conduct analyses of acupoints in terms of frequency,meridian attribution,anatomical location,specific points,association rules,and cluster analysis,in order to investigate the acupoint selection patterns in acupuncture treatment of post-stroke depression.Results:A total of 525 qualifying articles were screened,involving 171 acupoints with a total frequency of 3834,including points of the fourteen meridians and extra-meridian points.Conclusion:The high-frequency acupoints were Baihui(GV20),Neiguan(PC6),Taichong(LR3),Shenmen(HT7),Yintang(GV29),and Shenting(GV24),among others.The commonly used meridians were the Governor Vessel,the Bladder Meridian of Foot-Taiyang,and the Pericardium Meridian of Hand-Jueyin.The acupoints were mainly distributed in the head and face and the upper limbs,with the Five shu points and Luo-connecting points being the most numerous.The analysis identified a core acupoint combination and five effective clusters.
