文摘目的探讨益肾通脉膏方在肾虚血瘀痰阻证脉络膜前动脉(anterior choroidal artery,AchA)区脑梗死患者中的应用效果。方法选取2021年12月—2023年9月泰安市中医医院收治的80例肾虚血瘀痰阻证AchA区脑梗死患者为研究对象,以治疗方法的不同分为两组,各40例。对照组行阿司匹林肠溶片治疗,观察组在对照组基础上增加益肾通脉膏方治疗。对比两组临床疗效、神经功能、日常生活能力、血清脑源性神经营养因子(brain derived neurotrophic factor,BDNF)水平及不良反应发生情况。结果观察组治疗总有效率为92.50%(37/40),高于对照组的75.00%(30/40),差异有统计学意义(χ^(2)=4.501,P<0.05)。治疗前,两组美国国立卫生研究院卒中量表(National Institute of Health Stroke Scale,NIHSS)评分、Barthel指数(Barthel Index,BI)、改良Rankin量表(Modified Rankin Scale,mRS)评分、BDNF水平比较,差异无统计学意义(P均>0.05)。治疗后,观察组NIHSS评分、mRS评分、BI、BDNF水平均优于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P均<0.05)。两组不良反应发生率比较,差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论益肾通脉膏方能够减轻肾血瘀痰阻证AchA区脑梗死患者的神经功能损伤,提升日常生活能力,调节血清BDNF水平,且无严重不良反应。
