Ten Years Evidence-based High-Tech Acupuncture Part 3: A Short Review of Animal Experiments

[Guest guest]

[ " According to literature, intensive needling of this point can cause

restoration of respiration in 90-100% after phases of apnea within

10-30 h (19). "

 

That should read 10-30 SECONDS (not hours!)]

 

Phil, surely that's greater even than the super-placebo effect! See GERAC 2007:

" The underlying mechanism may be a kind of superplacebo

effect produced by placebo and all nonspecific factors working together. "

I am excited to hear what kind of placebo effect will describe your data -

perhaps the mega-placebo!

p.s. all joking aside, thanks for the link, a very useful document.

Ten Years Evidence-based High-Tech Acupuncture Part 3: A Short

Review of Animal Experiments

 

 

Hi All,

 

See Gerhard Litscher (2008) Ten Years Evidence-based High-Tech

Acupuncture Part 3: A Short Review of Animal Experiments [eCAM

Advance Access published online on May 7, 2008. eCAM,

doi:10.1093/ ecam/nen034]

http://ecam. oxfordjournals. org/cgi/content/ full/nen034# B19

 

There is an important typo in the sentence in the discussion

referring to our work [Ref 19: Janssens LAA, Altman S, Rogers PAM.

Respiratory and cardiac arrest under general anaesthesia: treatment

by acupuncture of the nasal philtrum. Vet Rec ( 1979;) 105:: 273-6].

The sentence in the article says:

 

" According to literature, intensive needling of this point can cause

restoration of respiration in 90-100% after phases of apnea within

10-30 h (19). "

 

That should read 10-30 SECONDS (not hours!)

 

Best regards,
