Introduction: Postoperative ileus (POI) is an inevitable complication after abdominal surgery, often hindering recovery and prolonging hospital stay. Despite the increasing use of electroacupuncture (EA) as an alternative treatment for gastrointestinal dysfunction, its effectiveness for POI is still controversial. This study aims to verify the efficacy and safety of EA in alleviating POI.

Int J Womens Health
December 2024
College of Acupuncture and Massage, Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Jinan, Shandong, People's Republic of China.
Background: Observational studies have shown that hypothyroidism is strongly associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, and that thyroxine during pregnancy comes mainly from the mother; therefore, thyroid defects in women may lead to problems such as miscarriage due to hormonal instability in early pregnancy, and foetal neurological deficits in mid- to late gestation, but whether there is a genetic causality between the two is still a matter of some controversy.
Objective: Goal to investigate the possible causal association between hypothyroidism and unfavorable pregnancy outcomes through the use of bioinformatics and Mendelian randomization (MR).
Methods: We used Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses using single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) sites as instrumental variables to infer causal associations between exposures and outcomes.

Various acupuncture clinical trials have been conducted on migraine; however, the conclusions remain controversial especially when acupuncture was compared with sham acupuncture. Sham acupuncture is sometimes performed at the same acupuncture points used for verum acupuncture despite the evidence on acupuncture point specificity. Four databases were searched for sham acupuncture or waiting list-controlled acupuncture trials for migraine on December 25, 2023.
