Current management remains suboptimal, necessitating the exploration of complementary therapies. Acupuncture, as a widely used adjunctive therapy, has been attempted for the treatment of CINV. This study aims to systematically evaluate the effect and safety of acupuncture in managing CINV.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      We comprehensively searched seven electronic databases (EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PubMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP Chinese Science and Technology Periodicals Databas, and Wanfang) and two clinical trial registries (\n                      <jats:ext-link>ClinicalTrials.gov<\/jats:ext-link>\n                      , Chinese Clinical Trial Registry) for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing acupuncture with sham acupuncture or conventional treatment for CINV. The primary outcomes included complete response rate (no vomiting episodes plus no or mild nausea), the frequency of vomiting episodes, and validated scale scores. Studies quality were assessed by using the Cochrane Risk of Bias tools.The registration number of this study is CRD420251102130.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      49 RCTs involving 4,133 participants were included in this study. The results demonstrated that compared with the control group, acupuncture significantly reduced the incidence of vomiting (RR = 0.583, 95% CI: 0.523\u20130.650), vomiting severity (MD =\u202f\u22120.839, 95% CI: \u22121.256 to \u22120.422) and vomiting episodes (MD =\u202f\u22123.704, 95% CI: \u22126.256 to \u22121.152). Additionally, acupuncture lowered the incidence of nausea (RR = 0.532, 95% CI: 0.432\u20130.655), and nausea severity (MD =\u202f\u22120.895, 95% CI: \u22121.273 to \u22120.516).
