FIG. 7. — Electroacupuncture (EA) modulation of plasma norepinephrine. Norepinephrine in 25 hypertensive patients was measured before and after 8 weeks of treatment with EA at PC 5-6+ST 36-37. EA did not influence epinephrine. Baseline norepinephrine was higher before EA (**P<0.05) and decreased by 164 ng/mL in patients responsive to EA (*P<0.05). Norepinephrine was not altered by 8 weeks of EA treatment in 12 patients unresponsive to EA.
