Rev Man5. 3 software was used for Meta-analysis,and quality evaluation was carried out by using Cochrane Handbook5. 0 standard. Results A total of 7 articles were included,with a total of 581 patients. Metaanalysis showed that: Bee-sting therapy was more effective than conventional Western medicine,general acupuncture and mid-frequency electrotherapy(P < 0. 05). There was no significant difference in the effective rate of bee-sting acupuncture and oral administration of traditional Chinese medicine versus oral administration of traditional Chinese medicine(P > 0. 05). The overall efficacy of bee-sting acupuncture therapy is superior to other therapies(OR = 3. 68,95% CI [2. 26,5. 98]).
