ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the influence of edaravone on the cognitive ability in patients with vascular dementia(VD).Methods 70 cases with mild to moderate VD were randomly divided into observation group( edaravone treatment) and control group( piracetarn treatment),35 cases in each group.Treatment cycle was two weeks.The scores of MMSE,CDT,MoCA were compared before and after treatment between the two groups.Results The scores were found to be significantly higher after use edaravone in the observation group ( t =4.21,1.45,12.37,all P ＜0.05 ).The score had no difference before and after treatment in the control group ( P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusion Edaravone could improve cognitive abilitys in VD patients through its function of anti-oxidant and free-radical scavenging.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the value of electroencephalogram (EEG) in children with headache.Methods 180 children with headache were carried out EEG recording,and the electrical activity of the brain was recorded and analyzed.Results In 180 cases of children,EEG was normal in 56 cases,abnormalities in 124 cases,the abnormal rate was 68.89％.The mild abnormalities was 78 cases,in a proportion to 43.33％ in the total record:moderate abnormalities was 14 cases,in a proportion to 7.78％ in the total reccrd;high-grede,abnormalities was 2 cases,in a proportion to 1.11％ ;5 patients was in critical state,in a proportion to 2.78％ ;epileptiform activity was 25 cases,in a proportion to 13.89％.97 normal cases with intermittent headache,abnormal rate was 46.1 1％,which was significantly lower than the attack headache ( x2 =15.16,P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion Headache in children with EEG examination had important significance.
