Abstract:
Objective To observe the therapeutic effect and effects on nerve conduction velocity of α-lipoic acid combined with monosialoteterahexosyl ganglioside sodium (GM 1) on diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN).Methods Ninety-six cases patients with DPN were randomly divided into the observation group (50 cases) and the control group(46 cases).The control group received GM1 40 mg daily though travenous drip,the observation group received α-lipoic acid 600 mg and daily though travenous drip.The course of treatment was 2 weeks in two groups.The effect was observed after 2 weeks,the motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV) and sensory nerve conduction velocity (SNCV) of median nerve and common peroneal nerve were detected by EMG.Results The total effectiveness of observation group was 94.00%(47/50),higher than that of the control group(71.74% (33/46),x2=7.0205,P< 0.05).After the treatment,MNCV and SNCV of median nerve of observation group and the control group were (47.6813.34)m/s and (43.82±3.10)m/s,(40.23±2.76)m/s,(37.31 ±2.79)m/s,and M NCV and SNCV of common peroneal nerve of observation group and the control group were(42.86±3.16)m/s and (39.47±2.17)m/s,(35.67±2.61) m/s and (32.16±2.50) m/s,all improved compared to before treatment(observation grou:t =7.876,8.428,6.923,7.234;control grou:t =3.572,3.483,3.413,4.182;P<0.05),and the magnitude of improvement of the observation group was more significant,and the difference was significant compared to control group after six months (t =5.133,3.827,4.634,4.545;P<0.05).Conclusion α-lipoic acid combined with GM1 in the treatment of DPN can significantly improve the clinical symptoms of patients and improve nerve conduction velocity,is better than the single use of gangliosides,it is worthy of clinical application.
