NCT05720637
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is highly prevalent, affecting nearly 4% of the global population. Pharmacotherapy is the frontline treatment recommended by the guideline, but it also has some limitations such as delayed onset, inadequate response, and drug resistance. Intradermal acupuncture (IA) is a method of using short indwelling needles retained under the skin to produce continuous stimulation for long-term efficacy. It has been reported that IA combination medication appears to be more valuable than medication alone in the treatment of MDD, however, there is a lack of high-quality clinical evidence.While several studies have proposed that manual or electroacupuncture can improve MDD symptoms by modulating brain networks, the cerebral mechanism of IA as superficial acupuncture for MDD has not been reported. Hence, investigators designed a multicentre randomized controlled trial to assess the clinical efficacy and safety of IA for MDD and preliminarily explore the potential therapeutic mechanisms for IA by functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) .
