title: Influence of acupuncture on the discharge of PHA neurons in the rabbit.
abstract: This paper deals with whether the posterior hypothalamus area (PHA) can receive signals from electroacupuncture (EA) at "Neiguan", and whether a relative specificity does exist between acupoints or acupoint and non-acupoint. The neuron activity was recorded extracellularly for analyzing the influence of EA at different acupoints and non-acupoint on the discharge of PHA neurons.
