ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To observe the influence of Gandou Tablet I (GD I) on neurologic electrophysiology in patients of hepatolenticular degeneration (HLD).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Vigilance-controlled electroencephalogram (VEEG), electromyogram (EMG) and brain-stem auditory evoked potential (BAEP) in 32 cases of HLD were examined before GD I treatment, and reexamined after 4 weeks of treatment in those with abnormal neurologic electrophysiology.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>At the same time of clinical symptom improvement after treatment, the abnormal VEEG, EMG and BAEP also improved with the effective rate of 71.43%, 70% and 66.67% respectively, their constitutional ratio were different insignificantly, P > 0.05. The peak latency (PL) of III, V waves and interpeak latency (IPL) of I-III, III-V and I-V waves in patients before treatment were all greatly prolonged, compared with those in the healthy control group (P < 0.05 or 0.01), the IPL of III-V and I-V waves were markedly improved after treatment.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Neurologic electrophysiologic examination was valuable for complementary diagnosis and therapeutic effect evaluation of HLD. GD I could improve the abnormal neurologic electrophysiologic parameters.</p>
