Acupuncture for the prevention of chemotherapy‐induced nausea and vomiting in cancer patients: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
2023 May 24 Cancer Medicine Yan Y, López‐Alcalde J, Zhang L, Siebenhüner AR, Witt CM, Barth J
Acupuncture, when added to usual care, may increase the complete control of chemotherapy-induced acute vomiting and delayed vomiting compared to usual care alone. However, the certainty of evidence was generally low or very low, and well-designed randomized controlled trials with larger sample sizes and standardized treatment regimens are needed to draw more definitive conclusions.

2022 Oct 24 Future Integrative Medicine Liu X, Zhao J, Liu J, Fan H, Guo N, Du Z, et al.
Combined acupuncture prophylaxis was found to be significantly better than other chemotherapy regimens in comparison with conventional chemotherapy regimens, reducing the risk and odds of CINV. Additionally, acupuncture was effective in preventing side effects such as loss of appetite, constipation, and diarrhea. The findings suggest that acupuncture prevention could be valuable in reducing the incidence of CINV and warrants further research trials and clinical application.

Press needle acupuncture is able to reduce the Rhodes index of nausea, vomiting, and retching (RINVR) score and can be applied to pediatric patients because of its minimal side effects, but further research is needed to determine the appropriate treatment time.

Experimental studies of these six plants have reported inhibitory effects on nausea and vomiting (or its animal equivalent), regulation of gastrointestinal motility, gastroprotective effects and antioxidant actions, which may at least partially explain the effects identified in the meta-analyses of the clinical trial results.

There is no convincing evidence of the efficacy of acupuncture except for specific conditions, which include acupuncture administered with embryo transfer to improve the outcome of in vitro fertilisation and acupuncture for the management of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. There is a need for high-quality RCTs, comprehensive SRs and meta-analyses to provide convincing evidence of the effectiveness of acupuncture. Moreover, understudied conditions such as uterine fibroids and PCOS deserve further study.
