This research shows physical evidence of acupuncture's value beyond any that has been demonstrated before, and also shows potential benefits not just for sepsis, but for treating other inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and Crohn's disease. While investigating acupuncture mechanisms, the researchers also have determined that fenoldopam, a dopamine receptor agonist, also shows promise as a pharmaceutical sepsis treatment.

Acupuncture is well researched in connection to sciatica pain relief.
The common signs
- It's main manifestation is radiating pain in the lower back and legs. It usually radiates from the lumbar region (lower back). Normally it starts on one side from the lumbar region and can travel down the buttocks, back of the thigh, knee, lateral side of the leg and lateral side of the dorsum of the foot.
- Most sciatica is due to prolapse of a lumbar intervertebral disc.
During the diagnosis, particular attention will be given to the location and type of pain i.e. is it fixed, how it affects mobility, when bending forward and backward as well as turning. Sometimes the damp cold weather also aggravates the condition.
