Abstract
Multiple lines of evidence implicate MORs in analgesia following placebo and acupuncture treatments. No study has examined the differential effects of these two interventions on binding of central MORs in chronic pain patients. We investigated the relationship between changes in MOR availability following acupuncture and sham acupuncture and subsequent changes in clinical pain. 18 female FM patients (ages 18-75) were randomized to receive either one acupuncture (n=9) or one sham acupuncture (n=9) treatment.
