Features: Research on the basic theory and application foundation of acupuncture and moxibustion expects breakthroughs in meridian studies. Utilizing theoretical and experimental methods such as electrophysiology, biochemistry, immunology, neuroendocrinology, and molecular biology to investigate the mechanisms of acupuncture and Tuina therapy in treating diseases is also an inevitable trend in the development of this discipline. With the rapid advancement of postgraduate degree education in China, the number of undergraduate graduates from TCM universities nationwide applying for master's degrees in acupuncture and moxibustion and Tuina has been increasing year by year in recent years, with both the quality of candidates and the number of admissions improving annually. This is primarily due to the steady and healthy development of undergraduate education in acupuncture and Tuina, as well as the objective needs of socio-economic development and the promotion of international exchanges in TCM and acupuncture. A large number of candidates urgently need a reference book for entrance examination preparation that reflects the main teaching content of various core courses in acupuncture and Tuina. To better assist candidates in systematically and comprehensively mastering the essence of this discipline in a short period of time, we have organized master's and doctoral supervisors with rich teaching and clinical experience, as well as middle-aged and young experts, to compile this book. We believe it will provide certain help to candidates in their review and preparation for the exam.
