Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the link between high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels and the development of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in a Chinese population over five years.
- It found that 13.3% of participants developed MetS, with higher hs-CRP levels significantly associated with increased risk, particularly in women (OR: 4.82) but not in men (OR: 3.15).
- The findings suggest that hs-CRP may be a useful target for predicting and addressing MetS, emphasizing the need for sex-specific approaches in future research.
Locating the Acupoint Baihui (GV20) Beneath the Cerebral Cortex with MRI Reconstructed 3D Neuroimages.
Evid Based Complement Alternat Med
November 2011
Baihui (GV20) is one of the most important acupoints of the Du meridian (the government vessel) and is commonly used in neurology and psychiatry and as a distal point of anorectal disorders by general practitioners. The anatomical relationship between the scalp region of the acupoint and the underlying corresponding cortex remains obscure. In this study, we first prepared the indicator for MRI scanning on a GE 1.
