title: [Modulation of the nociceptive flexor reflex by the electrostimulation of auricular acupuncture points].
abstract: Nociceptive flexor reflex (NFR) in patients with vertebrogenic lumbosacral pain syndromes was recorded before and after the ipsi- and contralateral auricular electroacupuncture (AEAP). Changes in NFR were observed after ipsi- and contralateral AEAP, each producing facilitatory and inhibitory effects on NFR. Facilitatory influence of AEAP on NFR correlated with hypalgesia, that apparently reflected recovery of the afferent input peculiarities.
