Figure 1 Electroacupuncture has been demonstrated to promote gastric emptying in diabetic gastroparesis rats.
A: Body weight (n = 10); B: Non-fasting blood glucose level (n = 10); C: Electrographic recording of gastric motor activity; D: Number of slow wave discharges in the gastric antrum within 5 minutes (n = 5); E: Gastric emptying rate (n = 5); F: Small intestine propulsion rate (n = 5); G: Representative positron emission tomography images; H: Region of interest in the stomach; I: Radioactive concentration in the region of interest in the stomach (n = 5); J: Gastric emptying rate at 3600 seconds (n = 5). Data are expressed as the mean ± SD. aP < 0.05. STZ: Streptozotocin; DGP: Diabetic gastroparesis; EA: Electroacupuncture.
