RE: The Acupuncture Evidence Project: A Comparative Literature Review (Summary)

in #health • 7 years ago (edited)

Hi Neuromancer,
The Acupuncture Evidence Project was a review of 11 years worth of research trials with the aim of compiling their results to determine the efficacy of acupuncture for different ailments . To do this took 2 people close on a year.
The trials reviewed are all referenced in the 81 page document so specific outcomes from each trial can be looked up.
Over time I will do a series of acupuncture treatments for certain conditions backed with referencing to clinical trials and their results.

    "The Acupuncture Evidence Project was a review of 11 years worth of research trials..."
    "...this took 2 people close on a year."

    That's a lot of material to go through, I think it would help to try and work through smaller blocks at a time with a little guidance.

    "Over time I will do a series of acupuncture treatments for certain conditions backed with referencing to clinical trials and their results."

    Are you stating how you practice at your clinic, or are you doing a series of articles in this manner? If the latter, I'm looking forward to it, should be very interesting.

      Hi Neuromancer - they did this to look at the efficacy of acupuncture for across 122 conditions. Its aim was a broad look at what acupuncture can do well and to highlight any deficiencies in studies for certain conditions that better/further research is required.
      I will do a series of articles, one per condition, with the latest results from clinic trials.
