, Stener-Victorin and Richard Legro's team published a randomized clinical trial entitled in on June 27, 2017. Their conclusion is "this finding does not support acupuncture as an infertility treatment in such women". We found that the trial design had serious flaws and that the results could not lead to the conclusion. Based on the reanalysis for the study data and those published in other medical journals recently from the team, it was found that acupuncture plus clomiphene or control acupuncture plus clomiphene had more excellent live birth rate, ovulation rate and cumulative ovulation rate than clomiphene alone, with statistical and clinical significance. The conclusion of the trial is potentially incorrect.
2017年6月27日,斯特纳 - 维克托林和理查德·莱格罗的团队在《柳叶刀》上发表了一项名为《针灸治疗多囊卵巢综合征女性不孕症的随机临床试验》的研究。他们的结论是“这一发现不支持针灸作为此类女性不孕症的治疗方法”。我们发现该试验设计存在严重缺陷,其结果无法得出此结论。基于对该研究数据以及该团队近期在其他医学期刊上发表的数据的重新分析,发现针灸联合克罗米芬或对照针灸联合克罗米芬的活产率、排卵率和累积排卵率均优于单独使用克罗米芬,具有统计学和临床意义。该试验的结论可能是错误的。
