| Comment: | Though acupuncture is among the most used Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) therapies and though it is increasingly provided for several diseases in conventional healthcare, its use and integration into the healthcare system is still subject to some criticism within the medical and scientific community. This is due manly to the conflicting data of acupuncture research deriving from the lack of high quality clinical trials, which negate any definitive conclusion on the effectiveness of acupuncture interventions. In this context, the Purpose of the Symposium is to bring together international recognized authorities in the field of clinical research in Acupuncture, with the final aim of providing practical and authoritative answers to the most controversial aspects and issues concerning the methodology of research in Acupuncture and its integration within the health systems. |
