Clinical Efficacy of Tongqiao Huoxuetang Plus Acupuncture on Post-stroke Cognitive Impairment and Its Effect on Neurotransmitters and Neurological Function of Patients
选取2017年1月至2019年3月本院收治的122例PSCI患者,运用简单随机数字表法将其随机分成观察组与对照组,每组61例。两组患者均给予口服盐酸多奈哌齐片,对照组辅以针灸治疗,观察组予以通窍活血汤联合针刺治疗,所有受试者均连续治疗4周。比较两组临床疗效;治疗前后,运用简易精神状态检查(mini-mental state examination,MMSE)测试两组患者总体认知功能状况,分别使用美国国立卫生研究院卒中量表(national institutes of health stroke scale,NIHSS),Barthel指数(barthel index,BI)评估神经功能缺损程度和日常生活能力变化,采用酶联免疫吸附法测定血清神经递质[乙酰胆碱(acetylcholine,ACh),多巴胺(dopamine,DA),去甲肾上腺素(norepinephrine,NE),5-羟色胺(5-hydroxytryptamine,5-HT)]和神经损伤标志物[神经元特异性烯醇化酶(neuron-specific enolase,NSE),视锥蛋白样蛋白-1(visinin like protein-1,VILIP-1),髓鞘碱性蛋白(myelin basic protein,MBP)]水平;并汇总受试者副反应发生情况。
To explore the clinical efficacy of Tongqiao Huoxuetang plus acupuncture on post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) and its effect on neurotransmitters and neurological function of patients.
Method:
2
Totally 122 PSCI patients admitted in our hospital from January 2017 to March 2019 were randomly divided into observation group and control group by simple random number table method
with 61 patients in each group. Both groups were given oral donepezil hydrochloride tablets. The control group was given acupuncture treatment
while the observation group was given Tongqiao Huoxuetang plus acupuncture in addition to therapy of control group. All patients were treated continuously for 4 weeks. The clinical efficacy was compared between two groups. Before and after treatment
the general cognitive function of two groups was tested by mini-mental state examination (MMSE)
changes of their neurologic impairment and daily living ability were evaluated by National institutes of health stroke scale (NIHSS) and Barthel index (BI) respectively
and euzymelinked immunosorbent assay was adopted to test the levels of neurotransmitters [acetyl choline (ACh)
dopamine (DA)
noradrenaline (NE)
5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)] and neurologic impairment markers [neuronspecific enolase (NSE)
visinin-like protein-1 (VILIP-1)
myelin basic protein (MBP)]. And the occurrence of adverse reactions was recorded.
Result:
2
The overall effective rate of the observation group was 91.8% (56/61)
which was much higher than 78.7% (48/61) of control group (
P
<
0.05). After treatment
both groups saw much higher MMSE and BI scores but lower NIHHS scores than before treatment (
P
<
0.05)
and above indicators in observation group were improved more significantly than those in control group over the same period after treatment (
P
<
0.05). The levels of serum ACh
DA
NE and 5-HT after treatment were obviously higher than those before treatment (
P
<
0.05)
and observation group had significantly higher ACh
DA
NE and 5-HT levels than control group over the same period (
P
<
0.05). After treatment
both groups witnessed a great decrease in NSE
VILIP-1
MBP (
P
<
0.05)
while the observation group saw dramatically lower NSE
VILIP-1
MBP levels than control group over the same period after treatment (
P
<
0.05). Neither of two groups saw serious adverse reactions.
Conclusion:
2
In treating PSCI
Tongqiao Huoxuetang plus acupuncture can significantly improve neurological function of the patients
which may be due to increase of neurotransmitters. Besides
Tongqiao Huoxuetang plus acupuncture is proved to be generally effective in promoting the recovery of patients' neurological function and enhancing their abilities in daily life
