Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
[Cumulative analgesic effects of EA stimulation of sanyinjiao (SP 6) in primary dysmenorrhea patients: a multicenter randomized controlled clinical trial].
To compare the cumulative analgesic effect of electroacupuncture (EA) stimulation of Sanyinjiao (SP 6), Xuanzhong (GB 39) and non-acupoint for primary dysmenorrhea patients. ⋯ EA stimulation of SP 6, GB 39 and non-acupoint has a good cumulative analgesic effect in patients with primary dysmenorrhea.

Randomized Controlled Trial
[Effect of cervical paravertebral block combined with acupuncture intervention on cervicogenic headache].
To observe the therapeutic effect of cervical paravertebral block plus acupuncture treatment for cervicogenic headache. ⋯ Acupuncture combined with cervical paravertebral block is effective in relieving cervicogenic headache and improving cervical vertebral activity in cervicogenic headache patients, and can strengthen the therapeutic effect of simple paravertebral block.

To observe the synchronism difference of brain region activities in response to acupuncture stimulation of Zusanli (ST 36) in healthy volunteer subjects with different acupuncture analgesia sensitivity, so as to study the central factors influencing acupuncture intervention outcomes. ⋯ Constitution-associated needling sensation may be an important influential factor for acupuncture analgesia in normal subjects. The change of ReHo in different cerebral areas is probably responsible for the difference of acupuncture analgesia in different constitution people.

Randomized Controlled Trial
[A randomized controlled clinical trial for acupuncture stimulation of Neiguan (PC 6) to prevent postoperative nausea and vomiting].
To observe whether acupuncture stimulation of Neiguan (PC 6) can prevent postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in patients undergoing craniotomy. ⋯ Acupuncture stimulation of PC 6 is effective in preventing and treating PONV in patients undergoing craniotomy.

Review
[Discussion on existing problems of placebo acupuncture design based on acupuncture analgesia].
In the present article, the authors made an overview about the existing problems of placebo acupuncture design in accordance with the neurological basis of acupuncture analgesia. The neuron-segmental and systemic mechanisms initiated by local somesthetic stimuli at different intensities are involved in acupuncture analgesia. When the local pain locus and the stimulated point are in the same spinal segmental region, stimuli of either higher intensity or lower intensity may produce an obvious anaIgesia effect. ⋯ From this viewpoint, the placebo acupuncture design in current clinical trials for pain treatment exists some unreasonable aspects. Both pain focus and intensity of acupuncture stimulation should be taken into consideration together. The optimal placebo acupuncture design for the treatment of pain conditions is that lower intensity acupuncture stimulation is given for longer distance between the pain origin locus and the stimulated acupoint.
