Sponsor's own description

Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is one of the most common diseases in urology, but its pathogenesis remains unclear and the effective therapy lacks. As a kind of chronic pain which the patients suffered for more than 3 months, CP/CPPS could be alleviated by acupuncture. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and higher magnetic field strengths could enable scientists to investigate the brain accurately and non-invasively during every stage of chronic pain.To avoid placebo effect, sham acupuncture would be also enrolled.Herein, by the utilization of fMRI in resting-state, we investigated the influence on patients' brain alterations after the patients accepted the treatment of acupuncture.
