Acupuncture Safety in Taiwan.
Article in Medical acupuncture, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: The safety of acupuncture treatments is crucial for patients. Although acupuncture is generally considered a relatively safe therapeutic modality, acupuncture-related adverse events cannot be entirely avoided. The development and implementation of effective preventive strategies are essential for enhancing clinical safety. Objective: This article focuses on the acupuncture safety strategies implemented within Taiwan's medical system, aiming to address the multifaceted and complex nature of acupuncture-related adverse events and to propose practical approaches for risk reduction. Methods: This article emphasizes the application of preventive strategies tailored to known risk factors. A structured, phased educational model has been adopted to reinforce both theoretical knowledge and clinical proficiency. In addition, improvements in the use of acupuncture instruments and the standardization of procedural workflows have strengthened adherence to safety protocols. The integration of modern technologies with traditional medical knowledge has further advanced innovation in clinical safety. Conclusion: Taiwan's comprehensive approach to promoting acupuncture safety offers valuable insights and a practical reference for enhancing acupuncture safety in global settings.
