Brief summary (registry, in English)

The study will make an association between the diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine that establishes that the syndrome of blood stagnation generates alteration in blood flow, vascular dysfunction, and damage to the endothelium. This process is like what occurs in a stroke. It will use electroacupuncture to change this chronic inflammatory process, and to know the effects and efficacy of this technique in the regulation and modulation of to treat extensive inflammatory diseases.
