Acubriefs Newsletter Volume 5 Issue 1 January - February - March 2004 Editor's Note: Following is the first formal topic, adverse events, reviewed in
Acubriefs. We plan to publish a topic quarterly. As you can see
the review is informal but hopefully pertinent and relevant to your
clinical as well as research interests. Do you have ideas for further
topics to be reviewed? Some ideas I have are: acupuncture and the
peri-operative period, acupuncture and psychiatry, acupuncture pragmatic
trials, new ideas for explaining in western terms how acupuncture
works, acupuncture and stroke, acupuncture in cardiology, etc. Please
let me know if there is a topic you are particularly interested
in seeing reviewed. I'm especially interested in hearing from you
if you are willing to do the review. James K. Rotchford MD, MPH, Editor Review Topic: Adverse Events and Acupuncture Review by James K. Rotchford MD, MPH Acubriefs Newsletter has three objectives: At Acubriefs.com, we invite readers to:
