Abstract:
Suggestions such as how to enhance the rationality of designation of clinical trails, regulate the evaluation system on therapeutic effects, control the quality strictly and unify the standard of report on key points of acupuncture clinical trials from the aspects of designation, therapeutic evaluation, quality control and report standard were expounded in this paper. Highlights such as perspective of acupuncture in qualitative investigation and practical clinical trails were explored as well in this paper.
