Microglia, the main phagocytic cells in the brain, play a key role in inflammatory response and neuroprotection in ischemic stroke, and are potential targets for the treatment of ischemic stroke. Multiple studies have confirmed that the effect of acupuncture on ischemic stroke is closely related to its effect in regulating the activities of microglia. In the present paper, we reviewed the role of microglia in ischemic stroke and the current research status of acupuncture intervention, and prospects the future research direction.

Objectives: To observe the clinical effect on perimenopausal dry eye disease treated with He's fire needle therapy combined with walnut-shell moxibustion.
Methods: A total of 60 patients with perimenopausal dry eye disease were randomized into an observation group (30 cases) and a control group (30 cases). In the observation group, the pricking technique with fire needle was operated at bilateral Naokong (GB19), Feishu (BL13), Xinshu (BL15), Ganshu (BL18), Pishu (BL20), Shenshu (BL23), 3 times a week, for 4 weeks, and the walnut-shell moxibustion was combined, 30 minutes each time, 3 times a week, for 4 weeks.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to investigate how moxibustion can alleviate inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by influencing ferroptosis and lipid metabolism.
- Researchers used 48 rats divided into four groups (normal, model, moxibustion, and moxibustion with an ACSL4 inhibitor) to assess moxibustion's effects over 15 days using various biochemical and histological techniques.
- Results showed that moxibustion significantly improved antioxidant levels and reduced inflammatory markers in the rats, indicating its potential as a treatment for RA-related synovitis.

Objectives: To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on the proliferation of hippocampal neurons and Wnt/β-catenin and Notch signaling pathways in depression like behavior rats, so as to explore its mechanism underlying improvement of depression.
Methods: SD rats were randomly divided into blank, model, medication and EA groups, with 12 rats in each group. The depression model was established by chronic unpredictable mild stimulation combined with solitary raising for 35 consecutive days.
