Abstract:
We measured plasma B-Endorphin in 10 patients with cerebral thrombosis, with comparing normal control group and obtained the following results. 1. The mean value of plasma B-Endorphin was 6.173+0.335 pmol/l in normal control male group and 4.55+0.443 pmol/l in normal control female group. 2. The level of plasma B-Endorphin was increased as mean value was 29.2 pmol/o in acute phase of cerebral thrombosis and it showed significant statistical difference. 3. Measurement on convalescent phase in patient with cerebral thrombosis also increased significantly compared with normal control group, but reduced significantly compared with patients in acute phase.
