Methods: A total of 177 cases of patients with convalescent cerebral infarction were retrospectively reviewed and then divided into the control group (n=109) and the Xiaoshuan enteric-coated capsules group (n=68). Control group received aniracetam therapy on the basis of routine treatment, and Xiaoshuan enteric-coated capsules group received Xiaoshuan enteric-coated capsules + aniracetam therapy on the basis of routine treatment. The differences in ultrasound cerebral blood perfusion parameter levels as well as serum neurotrophy index and nerve injury index contents were compared between the two groups. Results: Before treatment, there was no statistically significant difference in ultrasound cerebral blood perfusion parameter levels as well as serum neurotrophy index and nerve injury index contents between the two groups. After treatment, ultrasound cerebral blood perfusion parameters PSV and TMV levels in Xiaoshuan enteric-coated capsules group were higher than those in control group whereas RI level was lower than that in control group;serum neurotrophy indexes bFGF, BDNF and VEGF contents were higher than those of control group;serum nerve injury indexes GFAP, NSE, UCH-L1 and S100B contents were lower than those of control group. Conclusion: Xiaoshuan enteric-coated capsules + aniracetam therapy can significantly increase cerebral blood perfusion and optimize nerve function in patients with convalescent cerebral infarction.展开更多
