Spatial-temporal representation of cortical neural activity evoked by acupuncture stimulation

Key Points

• Cortical neural activity patterns are significantly altered during acupuncture stimulation, indicating a potential neuromodulation effect.
• The study highlights distinct spatial-temporal representations associated with different acupuncture points and their physiological effects.
• Observational analysis of neural activity utilized advanced neuroimaging techniques to map responses following acupuncture stimulation.
• These findings suggest acupuncture may have therapeutic effects on cortical activity, warranting further exploration in clinical applications.
