Detailed Description: Insomnia associated with breast cancer is one of the most common symptoms among breast cancer patients, which seriously affects the life quality of breast cancer patients.

Previous studies have shown that acupuncture may be beneficial for improving sleep disorders in cancer patients. However, the available clinical evidence is mixed, and clinical studies on acupuncture for breast cancer-associated insomnia lack well-designed, high-quality clinical evidence. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of acupuncture for breast cancer-associated insomnia.
