During our 4-year work in The Republic of Yemen, the authors used acupuncture therapy to restore consciousness and induce resuscitation plus scalp acupuncture in 80 cases of acute apoplexy, with 63 cases cured, accounting for 78.75%. This therapy is obviously superior to the traditional principle of point selection in acupuncture used in 25 cases as to curative effect, treatment course and other aspects. There is an obvious statistical difference (P < 0.005).
