Effect of transauricular electroacupuncture on stress-induced changes in cognitive function and erosions of the gastric mucosa in rats.
Transauricular electroacupuncture prevented stress-induced increase in the degree of anxiety and suppression of exploratory activity in rats. This procedure significantly accelerated decision-making process during acute stress in both control and prestressed rats. Transauricular electroacupuncture decreased the number and area of erosions by producing a pronounced antistress effect at the central and peripheral levels.
