Bench to Bedside: Understanding Symptom Response to Acupuncture Treatment and Designing a Successful Acupuncture Treatment Program

Abstract

This secondary data analysis project used data from our pragmatic Randomized Controlled Trial considering if acupuncture is effective in the treatment of Gulf War Illness. We achieved our two aims of completing scale construction for remaining psychosocial and clinical measures, and determining the relationship between dose of acupuncture and effect on secondary outcomes in this sample. These analyses allow us to move deeper into a better understanding of GWI. In addition to the 14 professional conference presentations listed in the products section (within), we completed 6 papers which have furthered our understanding of GWI in ways relevant to different users: scientists and clinicians working with GWI, acupuncturists working with a veteran population, veterans.
