Abstract
Acupuncture is widely used for bone disease treatments in China. However, it needs to cope with modern medicine. This editorial
provides new acupuncture approaches in modern medicine.
Keywords: Acupuncture; Modern Medicine; Bone-Disease
Introduction
Human bone diseases ask for high-quality surgery, and effective
food and drug treatments [1-16]. High levels of disease diagnosis,
interventions and therapeutics call for excellent therapy for a lot
of patients. Acupuncture is very important for bone disease treat-
ments in China [16,17]. Acupuncture can support almost all areas
of these bone treatments and recovery. This editorial provides new
acupuncture approaches in modern medicine.
Acupuncture History
Acupuncture has a long history in China (> 2000 years) [18]. It
was never interrupted across the history in China. It was as long as
herbal medicine.
Therapeutic Perfection
Acupuncture is different from modern medicine and medical
tradition of other countries. It can be very useful for human bone
disease recovery and treatments. Entering into new era, we should
promote acupuncture study and clinical application in a systematic
way. Treatment schedules and protocols (temperature, treatment
duration, electric-supportive and others) need to be customized
[19-21] and cooperative ways (personalized medicine) [22-26].
Conclusion
In the future, more traditional Chinese medicine will be utilized
in human disease treatments. In modern therapy, treatment proto-
cols should be systematically studied.

Background Warm acupuncture, a combination of the mechanical stimulation of acupuncture and thermal stimulation of moxibustion, is commonly used in treating acute low back pain (LBP). This trial aimed to compare the efficacy of stronger (above 43°C) and weaker (above 40°C) heat stimulation in warm acupuncture on the function and pain in patients with acute LBP due to lumbosacral disc degeneration (LDD). Methods One hundred and fifty-nine adults were randomly assigned to receive warm acupuncture treatment with silver needle (SvN) or with stainless steel needle (SSN) (1:1). Both groups received a 3-week therapy with 3 sessions per week. The primary outcome was the modified Oswestry Disability Index at week 4. The secondary outcomes included average pain, three physical sign tests and adverse events. Participants were followed up at week 16 and week 28 after randomization. Results The LBP related disability and pain intensity significantly relieved more in the SvN warm acupuncture group than in the SSN group, in both the short and long term (p<0.001). The between-groups difference in physical signs showed statistical significance only in the short term (p =0.024), but not in long term (p =0.081; p =0.069). Conclusion Compared with warm acupuncture with stainless-steel needle at above 40°C, warm acupuncture with silver needle at above 43°C relieved more disability and pain in patients with acute LBP due to LDD.

Introduction: This study aims to compare clinical effect between Jade moxibustion and traditional moxibustion, and to determine the clinical effect of Jade moxibustion on knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Methods/design: This is a 2-parallel-group, randomized controlled trial. A total of 148 subjects with KOA (Kellgren-Lawrence grade II or III) will be recruited and randomized to receive Jade moxibustion treatment or a traditional moxibustion treatment in a 1:1 ratio. Jade moxibustion group: The affected knee of the subjects will be covered with jade kneepad. Traditional moxibustion group: Chosen the ST35, ST34, EX-LE4, SP10 and Ashi points at the affected knee. The subjects will receive treatment three times a week, altogether 12 times in 4 weeks. The main outcomes are WOMAC knee pain score, knee function score and SF-36 quality of life questionnaire changes at the 4th week. Secondary outcomes include WOMAC knee pain score and knee function score, overall clinical efficacy evaluation, medication, safety evaluation at the 2nd, 12th, and 24th week, and cytokines related to osteoarthritis in serum. Discussion: This randomized controlled trial used traditional moxibustion as a control group to provide rigorous evidence for the clinical efficacy and safety of Jade moxibustion in treatment of KOA. Trial registration: ISRCTN registry, No 21174552. Registered on 28 February 2020.
