Abstract EN

In the article titled “Efficacy Comparison of Five Different Acupuncture Methods on Pain, Stiffness, and Function in Osteoarthritis of the Knee: A Network Meta-Analysis” [1], there were missing inclusion criteria in the “2.

Materials and Methods” of Page 2, where “Interventions were compared between common manual acupuncture, electro-acupuncture, fire needle, warm needle, placebo, sham needle, or education” should be corrected to “Interventions included common manual acupuncture, electro-acupuncture, fire needle, or warm needle.

Comparators were any of the above described interventions compared with each other, or placebo, waiting list control (including no intervention), sham needle, or education.

There was no language restriction in search strategy.” Additionally, there were errors in the typesetting and description in Table 1.

The corrected table is shown below.
