Acupuncture for Behavioral and Psychological Symptoms of Dementia: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
2021 Jul 13 Journal of Clinical Medicine Kwon. C. & Lee. B.
This review highlights the limited evidence proving the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture for psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) in patients with Alzheimer’s disease. Although some clinical studies have reported the potential benefits of adjuvant acupuncture in managing BPSD, the evidence is not robust and is based on small studies. Therefore, high-quality research in this field is needed.

2018 Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews Acupuncture and acupressure for premenstrual syndrome Armour M, Ee CC, Hao J, Wilson TM, Yao SS, Smith CA
Systematic Review
The limited evidence available suggests that acupuncture and acupressure may improve both physical and psychological symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) when compared to a sham control. There was insufficient evidence to determine whether there was a difference between the groups in rates of adverse events.There is no evidence comparing acupuncture or acupressure versus current International Society for Premenstrual Disorders (ISPMD) recommended treatments for PMS, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Further research is required, using validated outcome measures for PMS, adequate blinding and suitable comparator groups reflecting current best practice.
Review Articles
Review articles summarise and critically evaluate the current state of research on a specific topic or field by synthesising multiple primary research studies.
