Internet addiction (IA) has become a global problem characterized by excessive use of the internet, compulsive, and deleterious personal behaviors. Acupuncture has gained more and more attention in the treatment of IA. However, evidence of its effectiveness is lacking. The purpose of this systematic review is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of acupuncture in the treatment of IA.
The following databases will be searched from the inception to September 30, 2020: the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wan-fang database, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, and Chinese Scientific Journal Database. The research on acupuncture and IA meets the screening criteria, and two independent reviewers performed citation screening, data extraction, and risk assessment of bias. We used Cochrane Review Manager 5.3 software for statistical analysis.
The findings will be published at scientific conferences or in a peer-reviewed journal. This study is based on the existing research, so there is no need for ethical approval.
This systematic review provides evidence for the efficacy of acupuncture in treating IA disorder, and it is of great significance for effective clinical routine treatment of IA.

网络成瘾（IA）已成为一个全球性问题，其特征是过度使用互联网、强迫性和有害的个人行为。针灸在治疗 IA 方面受到越来越多的关注。然而，其疗效的证据不足。本系统评价的目的是评估针灸治疗 IA 的疗效和安全性。
从建库至 2020 年 9 月 30 日，我们将检索以下数据库： Cochrane 图书馆、PubMed、Embase、Web of Science、中国知网、万方数据库、中国生物医学文献数据库和中国科学引文数据库。针灸与 IA 的研究符合筛选标准，由两名独立评审员进行引用筛选、数据提取和偏倚风险评估。我们使用 Cochrane Review Manager 5.3 软件进行统计分析。
研究结果将在科学会议上发表或发表在同行评议的期刊上。本研究基于现有研究，因此无需伦理批准。
本系统评价为针灸治疗 IA 障碍的疗效提供了证据，对有效治疗 IA 具有重要意义。
