Acupuncture for treating chronic stable angina pectoris-associated anxiety and depression: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis.

Authors

Abstract

There are numerous studies worldwide on the use of acupuncture as complementary therapy for chronic stable angina pectoris (CSAP). However, the high morbidity of CSAP-associated anxiety and depression is often overlooked. This protocol of systematic review and meta-analysis aims to assess whether acupuncture is effective as a complementary therapy for anxiety and depression in patients with CSAP.
