In clinical trials, electroacupuncture at both ST36 and Shangjuxu (ST37) significantly reduced procalcitonin (PCT), TNF-α, intestinal fatty acid-binding protein (I-FABP), D-lactate, citrulline, and the TCM quantitative score of intestinal dysfunction in patients with sepsis-related intestinal dysfunction and intestinal obstruction (Meng J.B. et al., 2018). Here, FABP2 is linked to intestinal obstruction.
