Summary
This study tested a special type of acupuncture, called thread-embedding acupuncture, in 34 adults with stable COPD. Participants received either the real treatment or a sham version, and researchers measured their walking ability, breathlessness, and quality of life over three months. The goal was to see if adding this acupuncture to standard care could help people with COPD function better and feel better day-to-day.
