Acubriefs Newsletter Volume 4 Issue 10
October - November - December 2003
Dear Acubriefs Readers:
We have some wonderful news to announce. The Medical Acupuncture
Research Foundation (MARF) gave us a grant that allows Acubriefs
to continue and expand services. Our corporate sponsors also continue
to generously support the site. If you visit www.acubriefs.com
you are going to recognize several improvements. We will soon have
an online acupuncture
manual that will facilitate the review of the literature. Now,
if someone cites a certain acupuncture point and you are not familiar
with it, you can quickly review its location and characteristics.
What's more, if you are keeping up with technological improvements,
you will soon be able to visit www.acubriefs.com
with your PDA and have the screen appropriately formatted.
Besides these entirely free improvements, we are offering affordable
translation services. Please see our Translations
page for more information.
We are instituting "Personal
Librarian" support. Our staff can search our in-house database
(with the same references as our on-line version) for you using
software that permits more sophisticated search terms and limits.
We can generate reference lists in several formats and obtain full
text articles from hard-to-find and out-of-print journals. We will
also be offering a quarterly mailing service of current citations
in clinical specialties. See our Librarian
page for details, or you may email librarian@acubriefs.com.
Rather than providing reviews of pertinent studies as they come
up on a monthly basis (I just can't keep up with it!), I'm hoping
to have reviews of special topics on a quarterly basis. Would you
like to help out? Is there a particular topic in which you have
special expertise? For instance, Margolin
[1] did an excellent review on addictive disorders. If we could
come close to the quality of this review, there would be significant
clinical and research impacts.
We will no longer be sending out monthly e-mail newsletters. I suspect
we are all getting a little overwhelmed by the quantity of e-mails
we receive. At www.acubriefs.com there will now be a separate section
to review references recently added to our database. Of course you
can visit Acubriefs at anytime.
Finally, I want to alert all readers of an online resource, Acupuncture:
Review and analysis of reports on controlled clinical trials
[2] that reviewed clinical trials on acupuncture, as they are pertinent
to specific diagnoses or conditions. Compared to the Cochrane collaborative,
which bases recommendations on pre-ordained criteria, this publication
by the World Health Organization takes a more balanced approach
by recognizing the importance of contextual issues. It also contains
data on Chinese studies not readily available elsewhere. It's a
jewel in my opinion.
The theme topic of this newsletter is developments in auricular
acupuncture research. I've picked three pertinent recent publications
to review. I hope you find them of interest. I've also done a quick
review of an article that returns us to the issue of the need for
clear and precise definitions in acupuncture research.
