PRESENTATION OUTLINE
GB34
Location: On the lat aspect of the lower leg, in the depression ant & inf to the head of the fibula.
He - Sea point of the GB Meridian
Converging point of Sinews
Indications: Hemiplegia, shoulder pain, weakness & numbness, lower extremities pain, knee swelling & pain, beriberi, hypochondrium pain, bitter taste, vomiting, jaundice, Infantile convulsion
Functions: Benefits sinews & joints, activates meridians, moves LV Qi, harmonizes Shaoyang, relieves pain.

Notes: GB 34 is a very good point to move Liver Qi and to treat anything related to the sinews. He-Sea points are where the qi of the meridian collects and goes deep into the body. He-sea points are known to indicated treat rebellious qi and diarrhea.
Needling: Perpendicular insertion 1.0 - 1.5 cun

Objective: To explore the central mechanism of acupuncture points for regional homogeneity (ReHo) of resting state in brain function after acupuncture at GB34.
Study Says: It is demonstrated that the signal synchronization change ReHo in different brain regions including cognitive, motor, default network, limbic system and other parts of encephalic region after acupuncture at GB34, suggesting that the central mechanism of acupuncture at GB34 is the result of all levels of the combined effects of brain networks.
Def Connectomes: As originally defined by Sporns & colleagues (2005), it is “a comprehensive structural description of the network of elements & connections forming the human brain,” which could be considered either at a “macroscale [of] brain regions & pathways” or a “microscale [of] single neurons & synapses.”

Methods: Ten healthy volunteers were enrolled, which included 4 males & 6 females, aged 20–34 years old with median age of 23. The GE Signa HDxt 3.0 T magnetic resonance imaging were performed before (control group) & after acupuncture at GB34, & differences of different brain ReHo of 2 groups by statistical parametric mapping (SPM8) software & ReHo data processing methods were analyzed. The statistically different brain regions were obtained by false discovery rate corrected (FDR-Corrected).

Study Flaw: Only 10 participants
Results: Compared with control group, the ant. cingulated gyrus, left temp gyrus, right inf. parietal lobule, right frontal gyrus were enhanced ReHo after acupuncture at GB34. The left thalamus, right insular cortex, left inf. frontal gyrus, right ant. cingulate were decreased ReHo after acupuncture at GB34.
the ReHo method introduced by Zang & colleagues is increasingly recognized as a highly sensitive, reproducible, & reliable neuroimaging marker to characterize the human brain according to its local functional organization as well as its relationships with network-level characteristics.

Background Acupuncture and related techniques are used worldwide to alleviate pain; however, their mechanisms of action are still not fully understood. In the present study, we investigated the effect of transcutaneous electrical acupuncture point stimulation (TEAS) at different frequencies in a chronic constriction injury (CCI) model of neuropathic pain in rats.
