Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of limb ischemic preconditioning (LIPC) by observing the changes of brain glucose metabolism using positron emission tomography (PET) and statistical parametric mapping (SPM). Methods 40 patients with severe stenotic or occlusion cerebral artery lesions were enrolled and randomized into LIPC group (n=20) and control group (n=20). Brain lesions and cerebral hemorrhagic lesions were excluded after magnetic resonance imaging. The glucose metabolism of patients was analyzed before and after treatment in two groups, respectively, using the methods of radioactivity ratio and SPM. Results There were 5 patients drop-out in the control group. Comparison of the glucose metabolism ratio of the impaired area to the opposite area: LIPC group improved better than the control group (P<0.01) while the control group aggravated heavier than LIPC group (P<0.05). Comparing the glucose metabolism of patients before and after treatment in two groups, respectively, by paired-t test, 1) Setting the glucose metabolism of patients increased after therapy: There were 9 areas activated in LIPC group, including frontal, parietal, temporal, occipital lobes, basal ganglia and thalamus, and the KE=927, while there were only 3 areas activated in the control group, including frontal, parietal and occipital lobes, and the KE=289. 2)Setting the glucose metabolism of patients decreased after therapy: There was no area activated in LIPC group, while there were 2 areas activated in the control group, including parietal and temporal lobes, and the KE=115. Conclusion The improvement of glucose metabolism was observed in cerebral cortex, basal ganglia and thalamus of the patients with severe stenotic or occlusion cerebral artery lesions after LIPC by PET and SPM.
