Abstract

I noticed a recently published paper named 'Is acupuncture effective in the treatment of COVID-19 related symptoms? Based on bioinformatics/network topology strategy' with great interest. I am inspired and also have some doubts, which are mainly about the active compounds of acupuncture treating COVID-19. The authors choose only two active compounds, which remains to be elucidated clearly with some criteria description. The 11 300 disease targets of COVID-19 were screened using the terms like the related symptoms, which might be other diseases' manifestations. So the better legends of Figures and Tables should be the terms like COVID-19-related symptoms, instead of COVID-19.<br /> (© The Author(s) 2022. Published by Oxford University Press.
