Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the effects of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) on the immune function in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (PT) and the inflammatory response following one-lung ventilation surgery by comparing the levels of inflammatory mediators, such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin 6 (IL-6), and interleukin 8 (IL-8); T lymphocyte subsets, including CD3, CD4, CD8, and CD4/CD8 cells; and natural killer cells (NK cells).
