ABSTRACT

[Objective] To investigate the therapeutic effect of Radix Astragali on neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (NHIE) and to explore its immunoregulation.[Methods] Fifty cases of NHIE were randomized to groups A and B.

Symptoms and signs, scoring of neonatal behavior neurological assay (NBNA) and subtypes of peripheral blood T lymphocyte were observed before and after treatment, [Results] Time of symptom-sign disappearance was 1.4 d shorter in group A than that in group B (t = 2.06, P
