针灸疗法对认知功能障碍的影响(英文)

Influence of Acupuncture-moxibustion Treatment on Cognition Disorder

目的:观察针灸对轻度认知功能障碍的影响。方法:将60例轻度认知功能障碍患者按随机数字表随机分为治疗组和对照组,每组30例。治疗组采用针灸治疗,对照组采用药物治疗。采用简易精神状态检查法(Mini-mental State Examination,MMSE),日常生活能力量表(Activity of Daily Living,ADL)及蒙特利尔认知评估量表(Montreal Cognitive Assessment,MoCA)评定两组治疗前后的变化,并进行两组间比较。结果:治疗后,两组MMSE、MoCA与ADL评分高于同组治疗前水平(P<0.05)。治疗组MMSE、MoCA与ADL积分改善程度均优于对照组(P<0.05)。结论:针灸可以有效改善轻度认知功能障碍患者的认知功能。

Objective： To observe the influence of acupuncture-moxibustion treatment on patients with mild cognition disorder. Methods： Sixty patients with mild cognition disorder were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group, with 30 cases in each group. Acupuncture-moxibustion treatment was used in the treatment group, while Western medicine was taken by the patients in the control group. The differences of intra-group and inter-group comparisons were assessed by 3 measurement scales including Mini-mental State Examination （MMSE）, Activity of Daily Living （ADL） and Montreal Cognitive Assessment （MoCA）. Results： After treatment, the MMSE, MoCA and ADL scores of both groups were higher than those before treatment （P〈0.05）. The MMSE, MoCA and ADL scores of the treatment group have more noticeable improvement than those of the control group （P〈0.05）. Conclusion： Acupuncture-moxibustion treatment can effectively improve cognitive function of the patients with mild cognitive impairment.
