Randomized Controlled Trial
[Comparision of therapertic effect of different acupuncture methods for knee osteoarthritis].
To compare the clinical efficacy of acupuncture, electroacupuncture (EA) and moxibustion in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis (KOA). ⋯ All the three different kinds of acupuncture and moxibustion methods have positively regulatory effect on KOA, and moxibustion is the best for reducing the joint pain and stiffness, and improving the motor function.

To observe the effect of electroacupuncture on the expression of phosphorylated adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase(p-AMPK), phosphorylated mammalian target of rapamycin(p-mTOR) and phosphorylated Ulk1(p-Ulk1) proteins in the cortex of traumatic brain injury (TBI) rats, so as to explore its mechanisms underlying treatment of TBI. ⋯ Electroacupuncture may inhibit the over-activation of autophagy of cranial neurons by regulating the activation of AMPK, mTOR and Ulk1, thus exerting brain protection effect on TBI rats, and early electroacupuncture intervention is more effective in acute phase of TBI.
