Abstract:
To explore the common questions of acupuncture translational medicine study and the development strategy of its translational application. It is believed that the research on the individual and common mechanisms of acupuncture effects, and the common molecule of acupoint and parameter research for the effect onset of acupuncture may promote clinical translation and instrument research and development. The study of meridian theory should be fully applied to clinical practice to build a meridian diagnostic system with clinical significance. Using evidence-based medicine, the clinical research of acupuncture can be transformed into clinical guidelines to provide the effective regimens for clinical practice. The communication and cooperation should be enhanced between the basic research and clinical application in the field of acupuncture. It is suggested that the promotion of acupuncture translational medicine research is contribute to the overall development of acupuncture discipline, and to better service for the human health engineering.
