Postherpetic Neuralgia: Mechanisms, Risk Factors, and Stratified Management—A Narrative Review
The incidence of PHN is increasing, posing a substantial public health burden. Its pathogenesis involves VZV reactivation, peripheral and central sensitization, and genetic susceptibility, with key risk factors including older age, severe acute pain, extensive rash, immunocompromise, comorbidities, and delayed treatment.

Study on an Ionic Mechanism of Peripheral Acupoint on Acupuncture Analgesia
To primarily discuss peripheral mechanism of acupuncture, the ionic selective needle-shapedelectrode technology was used to observe the changes of K+、Na+、Ca2+ concentration on meridian line due to visceralgia and acupuncture analgesia.
