Randomized Controlled Trial
[Infertility in polycystic ovary syndrome treated with acupuncture and clomiphene: a randomized controlled trial].
To explore the best therapy for infertility caused by polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). ⋯ The combined therapy of acupuncture, herbal medicine and clomiphene improves the pregnancy rate and reduces early abortion rate by effectively improving HCG day cervical mucus, endometrial thickness and morphology. The efficacy is apparently superior to the simple medication with clomiphene and the combined application of acupuncture and herbal medicine.

Randomized Controlled Trial
[Timeliness law on the immediate analgesia on acute migraine treated with electroacupuncture at shaoyang meridian points].
To observe the differences in timely effectiveness of immediate analgesia on acute migraine between electroacupuncture (EA) at shaoyang meridian points and non-meridian points. ⋯ EA at the shaoyang meridian points achieves the definite immediate analgesia effect on acute migraine and presents the time effectiveness of analgesia.

To observe the intervention of electroacupuncture (EA) with different current frequencies and treatment frequencies on pain thresholt in rats with bone-cancer pain, so as to optimize treatment parameters of EA against bone cancer pain; and by measuring gene expression of opioid receptor and precursor in different tissues to preliminarily explore the possible mechanism of EA against bone cancer pain. ⋯ EA treatment has obvious analgesic effect on bone-cancer pain, however, its effect is not related with current frequency and treating frequency. EA against bone-cancer pain may be related with increasing the mRNA expression of some peripheral opioid receptors and precursor.

Randomized Controlled Trial
[Effect on chronic urticaria and serum IL-4 and IgE in the patients treated with moving cupping therapy and autohemotherapy with acupoint inection].
To explore the clinical efficacy and effect mechanism on chronic urticaria treated with moving cupping therapy combined with autohemotherapy with acupaint injection for desensitization at acupoints. ⋯ The moving cupping therapy combined with autohemotherapy with acupaint injection for desensitization at acupoints achieves the better efficacy on chronic urticaria compared with the routine western medicine treatment and the recurrence rate is low. The effect mechanism is possibly related to the down-regulation of serum IL-4 and IgE in the patients.

Randomized Controlled Trial
[Post-stroke dysphagia treated with acupoint injection combined with neural electrical stimulation].
To observe the effect differences on post-stroke dysphagia among acupoint injection combined with neural electrical stimulation, acupoint injection, neural electrical stimulation, and swallowing training respectively, so eligible intervention can be applied to this kind of disease. ⋯ The comprehensive therapy of acupoint injection and neural electrical stimulation achieves the much better efficacy on post-stroke dysphagia.
