ABSTRACT
@#ObjectiveTo compare the effect of acupuncture and speech rehabilitation on motor aphasia after stroke with speech rehabilitation alone. Methods49 patients with aphasia were divided into treatment group (27 cases) and control group (22 cases) randomly. The cases in treatment group were treated with acupuncture and speech rehabilitation. The cases in control group were treated with speech rehabilitation alone. They were assessed before and 1 month, 3 months after treatment. ResultsThere was no significant difference between treatment group and control group 1 month after treatment (P>0.05), but was significant in auditory comprehension, speaking, reading, dictation and description (P<0.05) 3 months after treatment. ConclusionThe acupuncture can facilitate the recovery of motor aphas after stroke.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To determine the appropriate time of early administration of dopamine (DA) before nitroglycerin (GTN) for establishing rat model with vasomotor abnormalities. Methods: Rats were divided into 5 groups: normal group, DA Group and other 3 groups in accordance with DA at different time points (10, 30, 45 min) plus GTN .Common carotid artery (CCA) blood flow velocity was dynamically measured with pulsed Doppler flow probe to evaluate the influence of DA, GTN on blood flow velocity rate(BFVR). Results:The blood flow velocity rate induced by DA of All medication administration was different from the normal group within 10 minutes(P 0.05). The BFVR of 10min interval group had differences with the DA group at 45min, 50min, 55min, 60min, 65min and 70min(P 0.05). Conclusion: Subcutaneous injection of DA, 45m in after injection of GTN can induce vasomotor abnormalities in rat with phase characters. The model may be useful for vasoactive screening of anti-migraine drugs.
ABSTRACT
Objective To research the effects and mechanism of gastrodin against migraine and on single amine neurotransmitter. Methods The model of nitroglycerin migraine was made after rat treated by gastrodin for 5 days, the time points of ear rubescence and the times of scratch head were observed to take as evaluation index of pharmacodynamic action, the concentration of 5-HT, NE and DA were measured in the brain with HPLC. Results Gastrodin could obviously prevent the attack of migraine and increase the concentration of 5-HT, DA and NE in the brain. Conclusions The effects of gastrodin against migraine is related with the concentration of 5-HT, DA and NE in the brain, gastrodin can regulate neurosystematic functions and enhance the secretion and metabolism of neurotransmitters.
