All patients were randomized divided into control group and acupuncture group. In the control group (n\u2009=\u200945), amiodarone was orally taken from the first day after pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). In the acupuncture group (n\u2009=\u200940), patients were treated with Neiguan point acupuncture for 7 days and amiodarone was prescribed as same as the control group after PVI. The levels of inflammatory factors were analyzed before operation, 1 week after the operation and 3 months later. After 3 months, the acupuncture group had a lower rate of early recurrences than the control group (5\/40 [12.5%] vs 15\/45 [33.3%], <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.039).
