The focus of this study was randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in which Baduanjin was administered for the treatment of COVID-19 patients with depression and anxiety. The study included various types of Baduanjin exercise, whether used alone or in conjunction with other treatment modalities, for the control group. The comparators included a waitlist control, usual care, health education and supportive counseling, psychosocial support therapy, pharmacotherapies, and other common exercises. The exclusion criteria for trials were trials comparing different treatment durations, different treatment frequencies, and different types of Baduanjin exercise. Moreover, other traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) therapeutic methods applied in either the intervention or control group were also excluded. Throughout the entire study, the selection process, data extraction and quantitative analysis were carried out in strict adherence to all relevant guidelines. The Cochrane criteria for risk of bias were used to assess the methodological quality of the trials. In our review, a meta-analysis was performed using the software STATA MP14.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Results&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;After conducting a meta-analysis, eight RCTs were found to have satisfied the inclusion criteria. The effects of Baduanjin exercise on self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) scores were investigated in five RCTs comprising a total of 228 patients. Analysis of the results revealed that the combination of Baduanjin exercises and conventional therapies led to a statistically significant reduction in SAS scores [MD=-3.21 (95 % CI= −3.64, −2.79), &lt;em&gt;P&lt;/em&gt;&lt; 0.001] compared to conventional therapies alone. Moreover, this systematic review explored the effect of Baduanjin exercise on self-rating depression scale (SDS) scores (three RCTs involving 83 participants), Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) scores (one RCT involving 103 participants), Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) scores (one RCT involving 70 participants) and Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) scores (one RCT involving 59 participants) for patients with COVID-19. The results showed that, in addition to conventional therapies, Baduanjin exercise had a more favorable impact on reducing the SDS score [mean difference (MD) =-2.86 (95 % CI=4.11, −1.61), &lt;em&gt;P&lt;/em&gt;=0.025], &lt;em&gt;P&lt;/em&gt;HQ-9 score [MD=-5.31, 95 % CI=-8.73, −1.89), &lt;em&gt;P&lt;/em&gt;=0.002] and HAM-A score [MD=-3.00, 95 % CI=-5.33, −0.67], &lt;em&gt;P&lt;/em&gt;=0.010] in patients with COVID-19 than did the use of conventional therapies alone.

However, there has been no meta-analysis that specifically explores the efficacy and safety of acupuncture in treating insomnia related to breast cancer.</div></div><div><h3>Objective</h3><div>The aim of this review was to systematically analyze the existing literature through a meta-analysis to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture for breast cancer-related insomnia.</div></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><div>Six medical databases were comprehensively searched for previous randomized controlled trials (RCTs) up to April 2024. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score was the primary outcome. The secondary outcomes include the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), Sleep Onset Latency (SOL), Wake After Sleep Onset (WASO), Total Sleep Time (TST), and Sleep Efficiency (SE), and the later four outcomes were measured by Actiwatch and sleep diary, respectively.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>A total of seven articles with 434 participants were included. The meta-analysis revealed that acupuncture produced a significant improvement in the total PSQI score (MD 95 %CI = -2.16[-2.88, − 1.45], P &lt; 0.001), but had no statistical significance on ISI scores compared with controls (MD 95 %CI = -1.53[-3.97, 0.91], P = 0.22). From the Actiwatch, there was no substantial disparity observed in the enhancement of Sleep Onset Latency (SOL) (MD 95 %CI = -6.40[-13.19, 0.39], P = 0.06), Wake After Sleep Onset (WASO) (MD 95 %CI = -1.45[-7.09, 4.20], P = 0.62), or Total Sleep Time (TST) (MD 95 %CI = 3.54 [-4.71, 11.79], P = 0.40) between the experimental group and the control group. However, a significant distinction was observed in Sleep Efficiency (SE) improvement (MD 95 %CI = 2.43 [0.14, 4.72], P = 0.04). From the sleep diary, there was a significant difference in the amelioration of SOL (MD 95 %CI = -9.15[-16.48, − 1.81], P = 0.01), TST (MD 95 %CI = 29.92 [16.74, 43.10], P &lt; 0.001), and SE (MD 95 %CI = 4.57 [1.92, 7.23], P = 0.0007) between the experimental group and the control group. However, no significant divergence was observed in the improvement of WASO (MD 95 %CI = 4.53[-4.81, 13.87], P = 0.34). All reported acupuncture-related adverse events were mild in severity.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><div>Acupuncture can partially alleviate insomnia symptoms in breast cancer patients. Moreover, acupuncture is safe and may serve as a dependable alternative therapy in clinical settings. Owing to the limited number of studies included, potential biases of heterogeneous interventions, and methodological weaknesses of long-term follow-up, more high-quality RCTs with large sample sizes should be conducted to evaluate acupuncture treatment.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10545,"journal":{"name":"Complementary therapies in medicine","volume":"86 ","pages":"Article 103087"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S096522992400075X/pdfft?md5=b0b677c40ccd8f6f7c4afc1c7dad6edf&pid=1-s2.0-S096522992400075X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142281535","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
