Wet cupping with rehabilitation training for upper-limb poststroke spasticity: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

Background: Upper-limb poststroke spasticity (PSS) negatively impacts on patients' quality of life. An increasing number of clinical trials have indicated that wet cupping with rehabilitation training is conductive to alleviate spastic muscle tone, thereby to improve upper-limb function. However, related evidence base is insufficient.
