Various schools of acupuncture have been used to treat UFs worldwide. Tung'=
s acupuncture, once a closely guarded oral family tradition, is a complete =
system that includes its own channels, points, and needling techniques.15 A=
ccording to Wei Chieh Young, this system predates the classical 14-channel =
system and is based on a unique Five-Element and Zang-Fu theory to treat di=
sease. There are 740 Tung's acupuncture points, numbered by location in 10 =
segments of the body, including hand, arm, foot, leg, ear, and head. Althou=
gh some Tung's points overlap with the points on the 14-channel system, the=
ir indications and curative effects are different.16 Tung's acupuncture has=
 also been researched for the treatment of female diseases such as polycyst=
ic ovary syndrome17 and irregular menstruation.18 However, the effectivenes=
s of acupuncture for the management of UFs remains uncertain.5

For the purpose of this study, the authors designed a 7-point Tung's acupun=
cture protocol based on their specific functions to treat UFs and related s=
ymptoms. Zheng Hui (1010.01) was used for its strong sedative function and =
its role as meeting point of the Du, Liver, and Tai Yang channels.19 Du cha=
nnel warms the body and calms the mind. Both the Liver and Du channel pass =
directly through the uterus. Zhen Jing (1010.08), used to activate the peri=
pheral nervous system, has a very strong sedative effect.19 According to ho=
lographic acupuncture theory, this point corresponds to the heart, which do=
minates the mind and is, therefore, indicated in fullness in the chest with=
 mental restlessness and startled sleep.16 Qian Hui (1010.05) was used as n=
eurasthenia point, as it connects to both Zhen Jing (1010.08) and Zheng Hui=
 (1010.01), to calm both the peripheral and central nervous systems. These =
3 points constitute a Tung's Dao Ma (synergetic point combination).16

According to Carson, both Da Bai (22.04) and Ling Gu (22.05) treat irregula=
r menstruation, amenorrhea, difficult labor, back pain, migraine, dysmenorr=
hea, intestinal pain, dizziness, and distended feeling of the head.19 As a =
Dao Ma set along with Fu Ke (11.24), the lower Jiao and hypofunction of the=
 Lung are also addressed. According to holographic acupuncture theory, Da B=
ai (22.04) dominates the lower Jiao and Ling Gu (22.05) corresponds to the =
upper Jiao. Thus, these 2 points affect the whole San Jiao to impart positi=
ve therapeutic effects.16

Scalp acupuncture therapy is an effective method to cure diseases via stimu=
lating head acupoints. The effectiveness of scalp acupuncture in the treatm=
ent of stroke had been affirmed in the ancient China. In recent years, a lo=
t of researches have confirmed that scalp acupuncture can improve motor dys=
function of stroke patients, and scalp acupuncture has been widely applied =
to clinical treatment of stroke (Wang et al. 2010, 2017, 2019). In this stu=
dy, Baihui and Qubin acupoints were selected based on the experience from p=
redecessors and lengthy clinical practices of our research group. Baihui ac=
upoint belongs to Du Meridian, which can dispel wind, refresh mind, and cle=
ar heat for resuscitation. Qubin acupoint belongs to foot Shaoyang gallblad=
der meridian and is the junction of Foot-Taiyang and Foot-Shaoyang. Accordi=
ng to our results, scalp electroacupuncture at Baihui and Qubin acupoints r=
emarkably reduced infarct volume and alleviated neural functional injury of=
 stroke rats, however sham acupuncture did not show any therapeutic benefit=
. Thus, acupuncture at Baihui and Qubin acupoints has a reliable curative e=
ffect on stroke. Next, we will focus on the potential molecular mechanisms =
of acupuncture in ischemic stroke.
