Abstract:
ObjectiveTo analyze the changes of imaging and the efficacy of sympathetic cervical spondylosis before and after treatment and discuss the correlation of them.Methods Seventy-one sympathetic cervical spondylosis inpatients who examined by X-ray,CT,transcranial Doppler (TCD) or color Doppler flow imaging(CDFI) were collected.After comprehensive treatment,the efficacy was evaluated according to the recovery of patients' symptoms,and the cases with imaging abnormalities were examined again.Then the correlation between the changes of imaging and the efficacy was analyzed.ResultsAfter treatment,all 71 cases,including 45 cases with excellent efficacy,18 cases with good effect and 8 cases turned effective,showed a fine rate 88.7% (63/71) and an effective rate 100.0% (71/71).The rechecked imaging results showed:in 36 lantoaxial subluxation cases by CT scanning,26 cases turned to be normal,6 cases were improved and 4 cases had finally no change; in 68 cases with abnormal X-ray imaging,67 cases were improved and 1 case had finally no change; in 38 cases with abnormal TCD results,24 cases turned to be normal,2 cases were improved,10 cases showed changes and 2 cases had finally no change;in 36 cases with abnormal cervical CDFI results,9 cases turned to be normal,10 cases were improved,15 cases showed changes and 2 cases had finally no change.The analysis of correlation between the changes of imaging and the efficacy showed:changes count by the value 0,r =0.388,t =3.500,P< 0.01 ; changes count by the value 0.5,t =0.361,t =3.211,P <0.01.ConclusionsThe efficacy of sympathetic cervicalspondylosis has positive correlation with the changes of imaging and the causes of this disease are complex.So complete and well inspection can help the syndrome differentiation treatment and confirm the efficacy.
