Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
[Comparison of therapeutic effect of soft-tissue relaxing needling and electroacupuncture for knee osteoarthritis].
To compare the clinical efficacy of soft-tissue relaxing needling and electroacupuncture (EA) in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis (KOA), so as to explore a new and more effective therapy for KOA. ⋯ Both relaxing-needling and EA therapies are comparable in the therapeutic effect for KOA, and the former is superior to the latter in reducing the joint pain and improving the knee joint locomotor function, thus being worthy of clinical application.

To observe the effect of needling "Danzhong" (CV17), "Zhongwan"(CV12), "Qihai" (CV6), "Xuehai"(SP10)and "Zusanli"(ST36) (Triple Energizer Acupuncture Method) on the learning-memory ability and profile of hippocampal differentially-expressed genes and proteins of SAMP8 mice (rapid aging mice), so as to explore its underlying mechanisms in improving Alzheimer's disease (AD)．. ⋯ The "Triple Energizer Acupuncture" of acupoints is able to improve the learning-memory ability in SAMP8, which may be related to its effects in regulating the expression and function of hippocampal genes and proteins related to neurite and cytoskeleton.

Randomized Controlled Trial
[Randomized controlled clinical trial of acupuncture treatment for knee osteoarthritis in the early stage].
To observe the therapeutic effect of acupuncture in the treatment of patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA) in the early stage. ⋯ Acupuncture combined with medication has a better therapeutic effect in the treatment of KOA in the early stage than that of the simple medication.
-
To determine the attributes of responses of the higher nerve center to acupuncture stimulation of Zusanli (ST36) on the basis of spontaneous brain activity, so as to explore the synchronization level of different brain rejoins after acupuncture. ⋯ After acupuncturing at ST36, the relative generality and specificity of the central response in healthy subjects reflected as the location of the affected brain regions and the difference in the synchronization level of the corresponding spontaneous brain activities.

Randomized Controlled Trial
[Short-term and long-term therapeutic effects of internal heat-type acupuncture needle therapy combined with acupoint injection of O3 for post-stroke shoulder pain].
To observe the short-term and long-term therapeutic effects of internal heat-type acupuncture needle (IHTAN) therapy combined with acupoint injection of O3for post-stroke shoulder pain in apopletic patients. ⋯ The internal heat-type acupuncture needle therapy combined with O3 acupoint injection has obvious short-term and long-term therapeutic effects for post-stroke shoulder pain and is obviously superior to warm needle moxibustion＋ acupoint injection and simple acupoint injection in relieving shoulder pain and improving upper limb motion function.
