Methods： EA, combined EA and other treatments for NCS are classified and analyzed. Results： The most commonly used acupoints are JiaJi （Ex-B2）, Fengchi （GB 20）, Waiguan （TE 5）, Quchi （LI 11）. EA is widely applied to treat CSR because of its definite therapeutic effects and safety. Conclusion： The validity of other evaluation indexes needs to be proved by more rigorously designed randomized controlled trials （RCT） with scientific methods.展开更多
