Abstract:Functional dyspepsia(FD) is a group of clinical syndromes characterized by postprandial fullness discomfort,early satiety,and epigastric pain without organic lesions after examination.Its pathogenesis mainly includes gastric receptivity damage,increased visceral sensitivity,and delayed gastric emptying.Western medicine therapy for FD,the current main treatment protocol,is symptomatic treatment,but there are many deficiencies,such as adverse reactions and poor compliance.As a non-drug therapy,acupuncture and moxibustion have the advantages of bidirectional,multi-system,and multi-target regulation without obvious side effects.In recent years,relevant research investigates acupuncture,moxibustion,acupoint injection,acupoint embedding,or acupuncture combined with multiple therapies.The results show that acupuncture can significantly relieve the clinical symptoms of FD patients and improve the quality of life with broad application prospects.Therefore,by reviewing the relevant clinical research on acupuncture and moxibustion therapy of FD in the recent 5 years,the present study summarized the increasing research achievements and existing deficiencies of acupuncture and moxibustion therapy of FD,so as to provide references for the scientific research and clinical work of acupuncture and moxibustion therapy of FD.
