RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the effects of acupuncture therapy on acute cerebral infarction. Methods: Eighty patients with acute cerebral infarction were randomly divided into a treatment group of 40 cases and a control group of 40 cases. Xuanzhong(GB 39)-through-Sanyinjiao(SP 6) acupuncture was performed as a main treatment. The curative effects were compared between the two groups and the sizes of cerebral infarct, between pretreatment and posttreatment after one course of treatment. Results: The total recovery rate was 88.5% in the treatment group and 57.5% in the control group after one course of treatment. There was a significant difference between the two(P<0.05). The rate of change in the infarct for the better was significantly higher in the treatment group than in the control group. There was also a significant difference(P<0.05). Conclusion: This treatment is an effective method for lowering the rate of apoplectic disability and raising the cure rate.
RESUMEN
The distribution of virus antigen of epidemic hemorrhagic fever (EHF) in infected suckling mice brain was studied by indirect immunofluorescence procedure. The specific fluorescence was presented in the following areas: (l)the limbic system, including the cingulate cortex, the piriform cortex, the anterior olfactory nucleus, the lateral septal nucleus, the hippocampus, the dental gyrus, the dorsomedial nucleus and lateral nuclei of thalamus, and several nuclei of the hypothalamus; (2)the special sensory nuclei, such as the medial and spinal vestibular nuclei, the cochlear nucleus, and the lateral lemniscus nucleus; (3)the nuclei associated with analgesic function, including the periaqueductal gray substance, the trigeminal sensory nucleus, the raphe nuclei of midbrain etc; (4)the extrapyramidal structures, for example, the caudal-putamen, the pallidum, the entopeduncular nucleus, the cerebellum and several nuclei of reticular formation in brainstem.
