CONCLUSION: Acuinjection at 4P remarkably inhibited leg discomfort in patients with RLS. Despite the drastic PLM suppression in 1 patient by acuinjection, a statistically significant inhibition of PLM was not confirmed. The results of our study can be applied easily and safely in clinical situations where it is necessary to temporarily reduce or eliminate RLS symptoms. |
CONCLUSION: In this network meta-analysis, acupuncture combined with mecobalamin shows the best results in the treatment of DPN, followed by acupoint injection combined with mecobalamin. |
CONCLUSION: The research will verify the safety and efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine physiotherapy in combination with acupoint injection for diabetic peripheral neuropathy. |
CONCLUSIONS: Acupuncture, auricular acupressure, and the combination of acupoint injection and acupoint massage seem to be effective in improving uremic pruritus in patients with chronic kidney disease. However, further investigation of these potential treatments is now warranted in larger patient populations and over a longer time frame. |
CONCLUSION: Evidence gaps include poor study design, complex interventions, limited significance of the selected outcomes, and limited study reporting. The promotion of acupuncture treatment for ALS still faces several obstacles. Rigorous study design and conduct, standardized intervention and outcome measurements, and normative reporting are needed to investigate the efficacy and safety of acupuncture treatment for ALS. |
