Figure 6 Effect of electroacupuncture at Gao-Huang.
Same electroacupuncture (EA) parameters as EA at ST-36 (Zu-San-Li) were used for BL-43 (Gao-Huang) treatment in heterotypic intermittent stress (HIS) rats. Although the abdominal withdrawal reflexes (AWRs) to colorectal distention heavily depend on the pressure level (two-way repeated measures analysis of variance, pressure effect, P < 0.001), EA treatment at BL-43 point on HIS rats showed no significant effect on pain perception; n = 7 rats for each group.
