ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effects of mind-regulating brain-developing acupoint magnetic therapy in patients with mild cogni-tive impairment (MCI). Methods From May to October, 2015, 60 patients with MCI were randomly divided into control group (n=30) and observation group (n=30). The control group received magnetic therapy on Yangming meridians, and the observation group received magnet-ic therapy on mind-regulating brain-developing acupoints, for two months. They were assessed with Montreal Cognitive Assessment (Mo-CA), digit-span and digit symbol of Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS). Results After treatment, the scores of MoCA, digit-span and digit symbol of WAIS significantly increased in the observation group (t>4.858, P2.188, P5.527, P2.324, P2.262, P0.05). Conclusion Magnetic therapy on acupoints related with cognition could improve the cognitive function in patients with MCI.
ABSTRACT
Epilepsy is a complications of brain injury or stroke,and is a common diseases in reha-bilitation or neurology department.Transcranial magnetic stimulation as a classical treatment means for stroke or brain injury,but also can promote the recovery of epilepsy.However,there is no clear clinical re-port for safety of epilepsy patients use both donepezil and transcranial magnetic stimulation .The article re-views the literature.Clinicians maybe provided some help.
