Key Points

  • Intestinal function improves significantly, indicating a beneficial outcome for diabetes treatment.
  • The study highlights a key mechanism involving the JAK/STAT pathway, essential for understanding treatment efficacy.
  • Electroacupuncture at ST25 serves as a novel intervention alongside metformin, addressing intestinal injury directly.
  • Evidence suggests promising applications for combined therapies, yet rat model findings necessitate caution for human translation.

Abstract

EA at ST25 may ameliorate intestinal injury via the Janus kinase (Jak)/STAT signaling pathway and is closely related to jejunal and ileal segments. These findings provide a theoretical basis for EA combined with medication.
