Effects of acupuncture at the Taichong (LIV3) and Hegu (LI4) points on functional connectivity with the retrosplenial cortex in patients with Alzheimer’s disease

BackgroundAcupuncture has been demonstrated to have a promising effect on Alzheimer’s disease (AD), but the underlying neural mechanisms remain unclear.
