Abstract:
AIM To investigate the clinical effects of Buyang Huanwu Decoction combined with Erlong Xizhu Acupuncture Method on elderly patients with stroke.METHODS Ninety-six patients were randomly assigned into control group(48 cases)for 1-month intervention of Erlong Xizhu Acupuncture Method,and observation group(48 cases)for 1-month intervention of both Buyang Huanwu Decoction and Erlong Xizhu Acupuncture Method.The changes in neurological function indices(NIHSS score,NDS score),Hcy,CysC,vascular endothelial function indices(ET-1,NO,vWF),intracranial hemodynamic indices(Vmean,R,DR),hemorheological indices(WBLSV,WBHSV,FIB,HCT,EAI)and prognosis assessment indices(mRS score,BI score)were detected.RESULTS After the treatment,the two groups displayed decreased neurological function indices,Hcy,CysC,ET-1,vWF,R,DR,hemorheological indices,mRS score(P＜0.05),and increased NO,Vmean,BI score(P＜0.05),especially for the observation group(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION For the elderly patients with stroke,Buyang Huanwu Decoction combined with Erlong Xizhu Acupuncture Method can reduce serum Hcy,CysC levels,and improve vascular endothelial functions,intracranial hemodynamics,hemorheological indices,thus improve neurological functions and promote prognosis.
