Advances in Skin & Wound Care, 2013
Maximizing the effectiveness of any wound treatment requires that normal wound-healing dynamics are appreciated. In considering adjuvant wound therapies, the clinical evidence supporting a therapy must be fully understood. The biological changes associated with electroacupuncture can have a positive effect on wound healing, although limited clinical ...

Monoaminergic mechanism of electroacupuncture analgesia
Brain Research, 1981We studied the effects of systemic injections of monoamine depletors, enhancers or receptor blockers on electroacupuncture analgesia (EAA) in mice. The following results emerged. (i) EAA is reduced by depletors of monoamines (tetrabenazine, TBZ depletes all monoamines; para-chlorophenylalanine, PCPA depletes serotonin; alpha-methyl-para-tyrosine, AMPT ...

Ocular Hypotension Induced by Electroacupuncture
Journal of Ocular Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 2002The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of electroacupuncture (EA) on aqueous humor dynamics in rabbits. EA stimulation was performed through two acupuncture needles placed in close proximity to the sciatic nerve. The sites of needle entry were anesthetized.

Neuroscience Letters, 2003
Nocistatin (NST) and nociception/orphanin FQ (OFQ) are peptides derived from the same precursor that play opposing roles in pain modulation. OFQ antagonizes morphine analgesia and electroacupuncture (EA)-induced antinociceptive effect. The present study investigates whether NST potentiates EA-induced antinociceptive effect and reverses chronic ...

Investigating the Safety of Electroacupuncture with a Picoscope™
Acupuncture in Medicine, 2008Our wish to know more about the paths taken by electrical currents in electroacupuncture (EA) with special reference to the heart, particularly in patients with an implanted pacemaker, prompted us to undertake this study. Using ourselves as subjects, we have developed a safe oscillographic method to detect, visualise and record the EA currents that ...

Effects of Electroacupuncture on Depression in a Rat Model
Acupuncture & Electro-Therapeutics Research: International Journal of Integrated Medicine, 2011Objective. To investigate the antidepressant-like effect of electroacupuncture (EA) in a validated rat model. Methods. Wistar Kyoto rats, a valid animal model of depression, were randomly divided into two groups, EA (n=7) and placebo control (n=6).

Electroacupuncture Attenuates Inflammation in a Rat Model
The Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine, 2005Acupuncture has traditionally been used in China and is being increasingly applied in Western countries to treat a variety of conditions, including inflammatory disease. However, clinical trials investigating the effectiveness of the anti-inflammatory effects of acupuncture have yielded inconsistent results, and the underlying mechanisms of acupuncture-

ELECTROACUPUNCTURE TREATMENT OF OBESITY WITH PSYCHOLOGICAL SYMPTOMS
International Journal of Neuroscience, 2007The aim was to study the effect of placebo EA, electroacupuncture (EA), and diet on obesity and accompanying psychological symptoms. One hundred and sixty-five volunteer women participated in the study. There were three groups: (i) Placebo EA, (ii) EA, and (iii) diet restriction group. EA was performed by using three ear and six body points.
