Publisher Description: Acupuncture has been studied in the Western countries for more than 50 years. It is still being questioned if acupuncture has its own specific healing effect or if the observed healing effect after acupuncture treatment is only a placebo effect. Previous discussion pointed out that the failure in acupuncture studies in the Western countries is mostly due to poor acupuncture healing effect derived from the acupuncture group, not so much from influence of the sham acupuncture group. Here we analyze the characteristics and influence of the acupuncture researchers in Western countries on the results and conclusion of acupuncture studies. |
