Abstract: The aim of this study was to provide clinical evidence to support the use of acupuncture combined herbal medicine for post-stroke depression (PSD). To this end, studies were identified by searching PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, NDSL, RISS, KMbase, KISS, and CNKI. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that verified the effects of acupuncture combined with herbal medicine for PSD were included in this study. Literature searches of English, Chinese, and Korean databases were performed. Two authors independently extracted the data and assembled the study quality. Of 698 RCTs screened, 17 RCTs were selected. Most of the studies had unclear risk of bias. Among the 17 RCTs, 10 were meta-analyzed. As for the outcome measurement, the effective rate and the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) were most used. The meta-analysis of the studies revealed that the PSD cure effective rate in the acupuncture combined with herbal medicine group was higher than that in the Western medicine group (RR: 1.23, 95% CI: 1.14 to 1.33, p＜0.00001, I2 =0%). Also, the HAMD in the acupuncture combined with herbal medicine group was significantly different compared to the Western medicine group (MD -5.54, 95% CI -9.80 to -1.29, p=0.01, I2 =99%). The quality of the selected RCTs was low. These results indicate that acupuncture combined with herbal medicine is effective for treating post-stroke depression. However, it is worth noting that the included studies were of relatively poor quality. The sample sizes were also small. Based on the findings of this study, the authors recommend further investigations into the diagnosis and treatment of PSD.
