We read with interest the pilot randomized, controlled trial by Quinlan-Woodward et al. (2016) published in Oncology Nursing Forum about the impact of acupuncture on pain, nausea, anxiety, and coping in women undergoing a mastectomy. We think that there are both theoretical and methodologic issues that do not allow the authors to conclude that their study demonstrated that acupuncture delivered postoperatively in the hospital after mastectomy can reduce the severity of symptoms experienced and increase the patient's ability to cope with her symptoms. .
我们饶有兴趣地阅读了昆兰 - 伍德沃德等人(2016年)发表在《肿瘤护理论坛》上的一项初步随机对照试验,该试验探讨了针刺疗法对接受乳房切除术的女性的疼痛、恶心、焦虑及应对能力的影响。我们认为,存在理论和方法学问题,这使得作者无法得出其研究表明乳房切除术后在医院进行的术后针刺疗法可减轻所经历症状的严重程度并提高患者应对症状能力的结论。
