Clinical Trial ethics related to Acupuncture (4)
--------------------------------------- 

Dear Dr. Urmila Thatte & Dr. Chandra M. Gulhati

Thank you very much for your feedback. "ICMR Ethical Guidelines" discuss
ethical issues only of the recognized Indian Systems of Medicine (AYUSH). It
is an irony that although acupuncture is not an officially recognized system
of medicine in India, even then it is being practiced in most of the
hospitals and researches are being carried out in medical colleges.
