The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of extracorporeal shock wave therapy on spasticity after upper motor neuron injury.
Eight electronic databases were searched systematically from their inception to August 3, 2021, to provide robust evidence for the efficacy of extracorporeal shock wave therapy for spasticity and range of motion after upper motor neuron injury. Study screening, data extraction, risk of bias assessment, and evaluation of the certainty of evidence were performed independently by two independent reviewers. Data analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.3.5 and R 3.6.1 software.
Forty-two studies with 1973 patients who met the eligibility criteria were selected from articles published from 2010 to 2021, of which 34 were included in the meta-analysis. A comparison intervention revealed that extracorporeal shock wave therapy significantly decreased the Modified Ashworth Scale score and increased the passive range of motion of a joint. Regarding the safety of extracorporeal shock wave therapy, slightly adverse effects, such as skin injury, bone distortion, muscle numbness, pain, petechiae, and weakness, were reported in five studies.
Extracorporeal shock wave therapy may be an effective and safe treatment for spasticity after upper motor neuron injury. However, because of poor methodological qualities of the included studies and high heterogeneity, this conclusion warrants further investigation.

本研究旨在评估体外冲击波疗法对上运动神经元损伤后痉挛的疗效和安全性。
系统检索了从建立到 2021 年 8 月 3 日的 8 个电子数据库,为体外冲击波疗法治疗上运动神经元损伤后痉挛和关节活动范围提供了有力证据。由两名独立的审查员独立进行研究筛选、数据提取、偏倚风险评估和证据确定性评估。使用 RevMan 5.3.5 和 R 3.6.1 软件进行数据分析。
从 2010 年至 2021 年发表的文章中筛选出符合纳入标准的 42 项研究,共纳入 1973 例患者,其中 34 项研究纳入荟萃分析。比较干预措施显示,体外冲击波疗法可显著降低改良 Ashworth 量表评分,增加关节被动活动范围。关于体外冲击波疗法的安全性,有 5 项研究报道了轻微的不良反应,如皮肤损伤、骨骼变形、肌肉麻木、疼痛、瘀斑和无力。
体外冲击波疗法可能对上运动神经元损伤后痉挛有效且安全。然而,由于纳入研究的方法学质量较差且异质性较高,这一结论尚需进一步研究。
