The overall favour sham/control group (HF) (HF Significant HF LF/HF when performed ST36 among PC6 both subjects, respectively. Discussion. study partially supports possible modulating LF while previous reported that did not have any convincing More published work is needed this area determine if can be an indicator therapeutic acupuncture.
