"Insomnia is a frequent and clinically significant complication for patients newly diagnosed with lung cancer, but a large retrospective cohort study from a major Chinese academic medical center reports that acupuncture substantially lowers the risk of developing insomnia symptoms during cancer care. In propensity score–matched analyses of 918 lung cancer survivors, patients receiving acupuncture experienced less than half the incidence of insomnia compared with those who did not receive acupuncture during follow-up, with the strongest protective effect seen in patients treated frequently and in those receiving more than sixteen sessions.

"Acupuncture and moxibustion significantly improve clinical pregnancy and live birth outcomes in women with recurrent implantation failure (RIF).

"Six months of acupuncture combined with moxibustion at a single acupoint—Zusanli (ST36)—produced clinically relevant improvements in lipid metabolism and serum biochemical markers in middle-aged and elderly adults, according to a clinical trial conducted at Hainan Medical University–affiliated institutions in China. Participants entering the study with abnormal low-density lipoprotein (LDL) or uric acid (UA) values experienced reductions into laboratory-defined normal ranges, while individuals with normal baseline values showed no significant change, indicating a condition-responsive effect rather than nonspecific biomarker suppression.
