<h3>Importance</h3> Electroacupuncture involving the lumbosacral region may be effective for women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI), but evidence is limited. <h3>Objective</h3> To assess effect of electroacupuncture vs sham SUI. <h3>Design, Setting, and Participants</h3> Multicenter, randomized clinical trial conducted at 12 hospitals in China enrolling 504 SUI between October 2013 May 2015, data collection completed December 2015. <h3>Interventions</h3> Participants were randomly...
Acupuncture has been used for chronic constipation, but evidence its effectiveness remains scarce.To determine the efficacy of electroacupuncture (EA) severe functional constipation (CSFC).Randomized, parallel, sham-controlled trial. (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01726504).15 hospitals in China.Patients with CSFC and no serious underlying pathologic cause constipation.28 sessions EA at traditional acupoints or sham (SA) nonacupoints over 8 weeks.The primary outcome was change from baseline mean...
Abstract Objective To assess the efficacy of manual acupuncture as prophylactic treatment for naive patients with episodic migraine without aura. Design Multicentre, randomised, controlled clinical trial blinded participants, outcome assessment, and statistician. Setting Seven hospitals in China, 5 June 2016 to 15 November 2018. Participants 150 Interventions 20 sessions at true points plus usual care, non-penetrating sham heterosegmental non-acupuncture or care alone over 8 weeks. Main...
INTRODUCTION: This multicenter, randomized, noninferiority trial compared electroacupuncture with prucalopride for the treatment of severe chronic constipation (SCC). METHODS: Participants SCC (≤ 2 mean weekly complete spontaneous bowel movements [CSBMs]) were randomly assigned to receive either 28-session over 8 weeks follow-up without 24 or (2 mg/d before breakfast) 32 weeks. The primary outcome was proportion participants ≥3 CSBMs 3–8, based on modified intention-to-treat population, −10%...
Polymorphisms of microRNA (miRNA), as a novel mechanism, are closely associated with disease states by interfering miRNA function. Direct correlations have been identified between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in miRNA, but the effect on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) onset among Chinese population remains unclear. Therefore, aim this study was to identify common SNPs miR-27a, miR-146a, and miR-124a T2DM population, well explore diabetic pathological mechanisms impact environmental...
To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on hypothalamic liver kinase B1 (LKB1)/AMP-activated protein (AMPK) signaling pathway, sympathetic nerve activity and browning white adipose tissue (WAT) in obese mice, so as to explore possible central mechanisms EA improving obesity. C57BL/6J male mice were divided into normal group (n=8) high fat diet (n=30) randomly, fed by for 8 weeks, respectively. In group, with body weight over 20% heavier than that considered mice. The model groups...
Obesity is a worldwide public health problem. Currently, increasing evidence suggests acupuncture and related therapies are effective for obesity. This network meta-analysis (NMA) was performed to compare the effectiveness of different therapies. We searched potential randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in three international databases. Thirty-four involving 2283 participants were included. Pairwise showed that superior lifestyle modification placebo reducing weight body mass index (BMI)....
Meta-analysis of GWAS in East Asian populations had established 10 loci that were associated with type 2 diabetes. Eight them genome-wide significance and two a border line association. Since these data have not been studied an independent Han Chinese population, we aimed to investigate the association susceptibility diabetes population. We executed case-control study 000 by SNPscan method. Firstly, repetitive sequences assessed. Next, investigated 8 SNPs out constructed GRS those SNPs....
UBE2E2 encodes ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2E2, which plays an important role in the synthesis and secretion of insulin. Two previous studies indicated that SNPs were associated with risk for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) Japanese Korean populations, respectively. We examined association one SNP this gene, rs7612463, T2DM 1957 Han participants northeastern China, using SNPscan(TM) Kit. rs7612463 genotype was significantly under various genetic models, including additive model (P =...
This study aimed to examine the efficacy and safety of acupoint catgut embedding (ACE) for obesity over a 16-week treatment period using sham stimulation as control.A multicenter, randomised, parallel, sham-controlled trial was conducted from February 10, 2017, May 15, 2018. Men with waistlines ≥85 cm women ≥80 at three sites were randomised receive eight sessions (over 16 weeks) ACE (n = 108) or skin penetration acupoints. The embedded once every two weeks alternating sets follow-up lasted...
To observe the effects of moxibustion on intestinal barrier function and Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/nuclear factor-κB p65 (NF-κB p65) signaling pathway in obese rats explore mechanism intervention obesity.
Background: Acupuncture has been found to be effective for reducing body weight (BW) with few adverse effects. Objective: The aim of this study was evaluate the effect auricular acupressure plus exercise in primary obese women a randomized controlled clinical trial. Design, Setting, and Patients: Sixty Chinese (ages 18–54) obesity (body mass index [BMI] ≥25 waist circumference [WC] ≥80 cm) were enrolled study. Intervention: patients randomly assigned 2 groups: Group A B. Patients (n=30)...
To analyze the core acupoints and compatibility of electroacupuncture (EA) for simple obesity based on complex network technique, to explore usage EA waveform.The clinical research literature regarding published from January 1980 June 2016 were searched in PubMed, CNKI, WanFang, VIP, CBM TCM online database establish a prescription obesity. The Matlab2014a software was used perform center analysis cluster analysis, points conducted. Gephi 9.1 demonstrate diagram further waveform.Totally 238...
Abstract Background: Obesity is a chronic metabolic disease in which patients are overweight due to the excessive accumulation of fat body. As subtype acupuncture, catgut embedding at acupoints has increased clinical application for obesity. The aim this study evaluate effectiveness and safety acupoint therapy simple Methods analysis: Electronic searches Cochrane Library, PubMed, Springer Medline, EMBASE, Web Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wan-Fang Data (WANFANG),...
To investigate the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) plus treadmill exercise on expression peroxisome proliferator activated receptor γ coactivator 1α(PGC-1α), Irisin, AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in skeletal muscle diet-induced obesity (DIO) rats, so as to explore its mechanism underlying body reduction promotion.Forty-two male SD rats were divided into normal diet (control, n=10), high fat (model), EA, and EA (combination) groups (n=8 each latter 4 groups). The model was established...
To observe the therapeutic effect of electroacupuncture (EA) and acupoint catgut embedding in treatment simple obesity.Simple obesity patients were randomized into EA group (7 men 36 women, 21-42 years age) (4 37 22-41 age).
