The protecting effects of Jia Wei Bu Yang Huan Wu decoction on the injury of 16 Hz,130 dB infrasound / 中华物理医学与康复杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the effects of Jia Wei Bu Yang Huan Wu decoction on learning and memory abilities, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX) activities and the contents of malondialdehyde (MDA) in mice exposed to 16 Hz,130 dB infrasound. Methods Fifty BALB/c mice were divided into a control group (group C), an infrasound-control group (IC group), an infrasound and drug-treated group (ID group). Learning and memory abilities,SOD and GSH-PX activities and MDA contents were measured 14 d after corresponding treatment. Results Compared with those in group C, learning and memory abilities was significantly decreased(P0.05)in IC group. Compared with those in IC group, learning and memory abilities was increased(P
