This meta-analysis was conducted to systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of auricular acupressure on sleep quality in patients with lung cancer. Nine articles with a total of 802 patients were retrieved after searching on 11 electronic databases. Results of the meta-analysis showed that auricular acupressure improved sleep score (standard mean difference: -0.80, 95% confidence intervals: -1.30 to -0.30, P = .002) and reduced sleep disturbance rate (risk ratio: 0.65, 95% confidence intervals: 0.51-0.84, P = .001) and sleep medicine usage (risk ratio: 0.26, 95% confidence intervals: 0.11-0.65, P = .004) significantly. Our review suggests that auricular acupressure is effective and relatively safe in improving sleep quality among patients with lung cancer.
这项荟萃分析旨在系统评估耳压对肺癌患者睡眠质量的疗效和安全性。通过在 11 个电子数据库上进行搜索，共检索到 9 篇文章，总计 802 名患者。荟萃分析结果表明，耳压可改善睡眠评分（标准均数差：-0.80，95%置信区间：-1.30 至-0.30，P =.002），降低睡眠障碍发生率（风险比：0.65，95%置信区间：0.51-0.84，P =.001）和睡眠药物使用率（风险比：0.26，95%置信区间：0.11-0.65，P =.004）。我们的综述表明，耳压对改善肺癌患者的睡眠质量有效且相对安全。
