Methods:A total of 74 patients with acute cerebral infarction treated in our hospital from March 2014 to December 2015 were retrospectively analyzed, and they were divided into ginkgo-damole group and conventional treatment group according to a therapeutic schedule that whether ginkgo-diyidamolum were included. At Week 2 and Week 4 after treatment, contents of apoptosis molecule, nerve injury molecule and index of platelet aggregation in serum were detected. Results:At Week 2 after treatment, contents of soluble Fas, soluble Fas ligand, soluble tumor necrosis factor related apoptosis inducing ligand, S100β, neuron specific enolase, glial fibrillary acidic protein, myelin basic protein, malonaldehyde, endothelin-1, fibrinogen and D-dimer in patients' sera of ginkgo-damole group were significantly lower than those of conventional treatment group. Contents of nitric oxide in sera were obviously higher than that of conventional treatment group. At Week 4 after treatment, contents of soluble Fas, soluble Fas ligand, soluble tumor necrosis factor related apoptosis inducing ligand, S100β, neuron specific enolase, glial fibrillary acidic protein, myelin basic protein, malonaldehyde, endothelin-1, fibrinogen and D-dimer in patients' sera of ginkgo-damole group were significantly lower than those of conventional treatment group. Contents of nitric oxide in sera were obviously higher than that of conventional treatment group. Conclusions:Adjuvant therapy with ginkgo-damole can inhibit the apoptosis of neuron cells and neurogliocyte and reduce the neural function injury and the situation of platelet aggregation.展开更多

Methods: 60 cases of inpatients were randomly and evenly divided into treatment group (conventional medication plus acupuncture) and control (conventional mediation) group. Plasma corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH), adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH) and corticosteroid (CS) contents before and after treatment were measured using radioimmunoassay (RIA) and compared with those of healthy subject group (n=30). Results: Plasma CRH, ACTH and CS levels in patients of both treatment group and control group at admission were significant higher than those of normal subject group (P<0.05). After treatment for 15~30 days, results showed that plasma CRH, ACTH and CS levels in both treatment and control groups lowered significantly in comparison with those of pre treatment (P<0.05 or 0.01); while those of treatment group were even more lower (being closer to the normal values) than those of control group (P<0.05 or 0.01). Conclusion: Acupuncture therapy can reduce the stress state of HPA in type II diabetes with concurrent acute cerebral infarction patients, i.e. regulate the neuroendocrine immunological net, which may be one of the mechanisms for acupuncture treatment of cerebral stroke.展开更多

A total of 100 patients were randomly divided into scalp acupuncture group (n = 50) and medication control group (n= 50). In the former group, penetration needling from Baihui (GV 20) to Qianding (GV 21) and from Shuaigu(GB 8) to Xuanli (GB 6) was performed, followed by conducting electroacupuncture (EA) stimulation; while in control group, intravenous drip of Ligustrazine injectio 120 mg plus 5% glucose solution 250 mL (once daily, with 14 days being a therapeutic course) was given in the first therapeutic course and then intravenous drip of Piracetum injectio (2 g plus 5% glucose or normal saline 250 mL, once daily, continuously for 14 days) conducted in the second therapeutic course. Results: After treatment, of the 50 cases in scalp acupuncture group, 26 (52%) were recovered basically, 15 (30%) had significant improvement, 7 (14%) had improvement and 2 (4%) failed in the treatment; while of the 50 cases in control group, 15 (30%) recovered basically, 17 (34%) had marked improvement, 16 (32%) had improvement and 2 (4%) failed in the treatment. The integral values of hemiplegia and aphasia of scalp acupuncture group were less than those of control group (P <0.01). It Indicates that the therapeutic effect of scalp acupuncture is superior to that of control group.展开更多
