Conventional randomized controlled trial is considered as the gold standard of clinical trials in evalua ting pharmacologic effectiveness. Whereas, it still has some faults in the non-pharmacy interventions, such as surgery, acupuncture, massage, etc. Expertise-based randomized controlled trial makes up for some deficiencies of conventional randomized controlled trial, which has made better developments in the field of surgery, however, there is no any relevant retrieval literature found in the acupuncture field. It is feasible and practical of the expertise-based randomized controlled trial to be applied and promoted in the acupuncture-moxibustion clinical research for a further degree. Expertise-based randomized controlled trials might become the trend of acupuncture-moxibustion clinical stu dies in the future.
传统随机对照试验被认为是评估药物疗效的临床试验的金标准。然而，它在非药物干预（如手术、针灸、按摩等）方面仍存在一些缺陷。基于专家经验的随机对照试验弥补了传统随机对照试验的一些不足，在外科领域有了更好的发展，然而，在针灸领域尚未发现任何相关的检索文献。基于专家经验的随机对照试验在针灸临床研究中进一步应用和推广是可行且实际的。基于专家经验的随机对照试验可能会成为未来针灸临床研究的趋势。
