摘要
目的观察不同频率重复经颅磁刺激(rTMS)对阿尔茨海默病(AD)患者精神行为症状及认知功能的影响。方法采用随机数字表法将72例伴有精神行为症状的AD患者分为高频组、低频组及对照组,每组24例。所有患者均给予低剂量利培酮口服,高频组、低频组患者分别辅以rTMS治疗(rTMS刺激频率分别为10Hz、1Hz),对照组则同时辅以rTMS伪刺激。所有患者rTMS刺激部位均选择左、右侧前额叶背外侧皮质区,磁刺激强度为80%运动阈值(MT),每次治疗30min,每周治疗5次,共持续治疗4周。于治疗前、后分别采用AD行为症状量表(BEHAVE—AD)、简易智能状态检查量表(MMSE)对3组患者进行疗效评定。结果治疗2周后,高频组患者BEHAVE-AD评分[(13.84±6.10)分]较治疗前[(16.75±6.26)分]明显降低(P〈0.05),且明显低于低频组及对照组水平[分别为(15.33±6.27)分和(15.46±6、57)分](P〈0.05)。治疗4周后,低频组及对照组患者BEHAVE—AD评分[分别为(12.87±4.16)分和(13.29±4.07)分]均较治疗前明显降低(P〈0.05),并且以高频组患者BEHAVE.AD评分[(10.12±3.31)分]的降低幅度尤为显著(P〈0.01),与低频组、对照组间差异均具有统计学意义(P〈0.05)。治疗4周后,高频组MMSE评分[(16.89±4.30)分]较治疗前明显增高(P〈0.01),且明显高于低频组及对照组水平[分别为(14.50±4.13)分]和(13.92±3.68)分](P〈0.05)。治疗4周后高频组、低频组及对照组临床有效率分别为87.50%、58.33%和54.17%,3组患者治疗有效率组间差异具有统计学意义(P〈0.05)。结论高频(10Hz)rTMS对AD患者精神行为症状具有明显缓解作用,同时还能改善患者认知功能,该疗法值得临床进一步研究、推广。
Objective To assess the effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) at different frequencies on behavioral and psychological symptoms and cognitive function in patients with Alzheimer's disease. Methods Seventy-two patients were randomly divided into a high frequency group, a low frequency group and a control group (n= 24 for each) , and given 10 Hz, 1 Hz or sham rTMS over the left and right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex at an intensity was 80% of each patient's movement threshold. The stimulation was for 30 rain a day, five days a week. During the 4 weeks of treatment, risperidone was used at a fixed dose of 1 mg per day for all patients. Before and after the treatment, all 3 groups were assessed using the behavioral pathology in Alzheimer's disease rating scale (BEHAYE-AD) and the mini-mental state examination ( MMSE). Results Two weeks after the treatment, the av- erage BEHAVE-AD score of the high frequency group had decreased significantly from (16.75±6.26) to (13.84± 6.10) , significantly lower than the low frequency and the control groups' averages. Two weeks later, the average BEHAVE-AD scores of the 3 groups were significantly lower than before the treatment, but the decrease of the high frequency group was of significantly greater compared to the other 2 groups. Four weeks after the treatment the average MMSE score of the high frequency group was significantly better than before the treatment (P〈0.01) , and better than the low frequency and the control group's averages. The effectiveness rates of the high frequency group, the low frequency group and the control group were 88%, 58% and 54% respectively, all significantly different. Conclusion High frequency ( 10 Hz) rTMS combined with risperidone can improve the behavioral and psychological symptoms and cognitive function of AD patients, while low frequency (1 Hz) rTMS does not have obvious effects.
