| Abstract
|
| Secondary spinal cord injury is a serious injury of central nervous system. Acupuncture has a positive effect for paraplegia caused by secondary spinal cord injury, and has a better curative effect on the complications, such as the neurogenic bladder and pain caused by paraplegia. With the development of experimental techniques, researchers found that acupuncture treatment has extensive influence on the structure and function of the spinal cord through animal experiments. They further revealed the mechanism of acupuncture in the treatment of spinal cord injury from neurological and biochemical aspects. This article reviews the experimental researches of secondary spinal cord injury treated by acupuncture in recent ten years. |
