RÉSUMÉ
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To observe effects of point injection at cervical Jiaji points on endothelin (ET) and calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) in the patient of ischemic stroke (IS).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Seventy cases of IS were randomly divided into a treatment group of 35 cases and a control group of 35 cases. The treatment group were treated with acupoint injection at cervical Jiaji points and routine acupuncture, and the control group only with routine acupuncture. Two weeks constituted one course with an interval of one day between courses. After two courses and 4 courses, changes of ET and CGRP were detected, and after 4 courses, their clinical therapeutic effects were evaluated.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Acupoint injection at cervical Jiaji points could significantly decrease ET and increase CGRP level; the cured and markedly effective rate was 88.6% in the treatment group and 68.6% in the control group with a significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Acupoint injection at cervical Jiaji points has a very good clinical therapeutic effect and can improve ET and CGRP levels in the patient of IS.</p>
