They can produce a synergistic effect when used together with surgery, radio- and chemotherapy. In analyzing the relationship between the factors that affect the distant metastasis, the authors strongly recommend that the FDM-survival rate be used, i.e. the survival rate free from distant metastasis as suggested by Hong Minghuang et al in their article. An analysis based on FDM-survival rate in a duration of three or five years with the data treated with the Kaplan-Meier and/or Life Table would be rational and convincible.展开更多

Methods： 90 VD patients were randomly divided into a drug group, an EA group and an EA plus drug group. Scoring with the M/VISE scale and detecting the relevant potentials were done before treatment and after a 6-week treatment. Results： Gnosia was improved after treatment in all the three groups with no significant difference by the intergroup comparison. Conclusion： The above three therapies can all improve gnosia, reduce the psychological stress, strengthen attention and shorten the awaiting time for recognition; and EA plus Nimodipine seems to be the best in the curative effect.展开更多
